Is there anyone in Melbourne who still doesn’t know about this Italian gem? I’ve been here multiple times with different groups of friends, and every single visit has been a hit. When I heard the wheel cheese pasta was back, we booked immediately — definitely make a reservation, it’s always busy.nFor starters, the Wagyu carpaccio is a must-try. The thinly sliced raw wagyu is prepared almost like Italian cured meat — slightly salty, pleasantly chewy, and surprisingly unique. The arancini is also a solid classic, crispy outside and creamy inside.nAs for mains, you really can’t go wrong. The steaks, pasta, and ravioli are all worth ordering. Always ask about the daily specials — the T-bone we had this time was incredible. Huge portion, beautifully aromatic, and cooked medium-rare to tender, melt-in-your-mouth perfection. If there’s no special steak available, the Controfiletto on the regular menu is a safe and delicious choice.nPasta lovers shouldn’t miss the lobster pasta, seafood pasta, and especially the seasonal wheel cheese pasta in August — it’s practically on every table. Add shaved truffle for extra indulgence.nDesserts and drinks are equally impressive. The tiramisu and panna cotta are well-balanced, not overly sweet, and easy to love. And a final shoutout to the service — even when busy, the staff are consistently warm and welcoming. It’s the kind of place you’ll happily return to again and again.
Was craving some good Italian food and this place did not disappoint. First and foremost, the waiters of this establishment were immensely welcoming which was so lovely. We ordered Oysters, Polenta, Osso Buco and some Gnocchi. Every dish knocked it out of the park and my partner and I were very impressed. The waiters also recommended the panna cotta for dessert and we enjoyed it! Lovely lovely experience, we will 100% be back :
Probably the best service I’ve ever had. The waiters were fantastic and the whole place just oozes warmth and professionalism.nThe food was top notch – you’ll struggle to find better.nIt’s a bit pricey, and the automatic 10% tip on the payment machine is cheeky. Like other restaurants, they seem to be pushing towards an American-style tipping culture, which I really hope we never adopt here given staff already earn a minimum wage you have to manually turn it off.nAside from that, the staff were excellent.
It was such a delight to experience the food at Vaportto & Bar. The seafood pasta was incredibly authentic and flavourful — I rarely eat pasta, but theirs was absolutely fabulous. The Wagyu carpaccio was also unforgettable.nnThe staff made the experience even better. Their warm welcome made us even more excited to enjoy the food and drinks. I want to give special recognition to the amazing team: Ardel at the bar, who served us wonderful drinks; Mark, who welcomed us so kindly before we even placed our order; and Aljhon, who made sure everything was served correctly and that we were comfortable throughout our visit.nnI highly recommend everyone to come and experience their Italian dishes and beautifully crafted drinks — you can really feel the love in every detail.
Perfectly situated at the back of Lido Cinema and a walking distance from Swinburne Hawthorn campus, we came here with a group and we ordered a massive spread. While the pasta gets a lot of hype, the mains Secondi were honestly the highlight of the night. ​The Tagliata is a delight, a 300g beef rib-eye served with mushrooms and jus which was perfectly cooked. The Spigola alla Vicentina barramundi on soft polenta with prosciutto-wrapped asparagus was absolutely delicious. ​For the pastas Primi, we had the Tortiglioni alla Vodka rich and creamy, the Ravioli di Zucca pumpkin with sage and sour cherries, and the melt-in-your-mouth Gnocchi al Ragu’ d’Agnello. We also had Caprese con Prosciutto the heirloom tomatoes and stracciatella were so fresh and added a side of Verdure greens with guanciale. ​Great atmosphere, lovely service, and the perfect spot for a group lunch where you can share the whole menu. Highly recommend!
