Maccaroni Trattoria Italiana in the Melbourne CBD is serving rustic and authentic Italian food like its meant to be – flavoursome, simple and made with a healthy dose of Italian passion. The chefs behind this Manchester Lane restaurant are dedicated to following traditional recipes (just like Nonna used), using their knowledge from homeland Italy and adding just a touch of gourmet modernity. Freshly made pasta is undoubtedly the star of the show at Maccaroni Trattoria Italiana, ranging from gnocchi and tagliatelle to fettuccine and pappardelle. Yet the menu also offers rustic pizzas, traditional mains and homemade desserts that will satisfy any guest – especially when enjoyed alongside the Italian and Australian wines available. Better yet, the service and atmosphere of Maccaroni is both genuine and inviting. Located in the Melbourne CBD, this restaurant is understandably popular and making an advance booking is highly recommended.

    As an ex-chef who has worked in chef-hat restaurants and eaten at plenty of them too, I can honestly say this is probably some of the best food I’ve ever eaten. I genuinely couldn’t fault a single thing. Everything was fresh, tasty and full of flavour, and the quality was easily at the level where I’d expect to pay twice the price. Absolutely fantastic. I’ll definitely be returning and will happily recommend this place to anyone.
