• Italian • South Yarra
Booked 19 times today
Caffé e Cucina opened on August 16th 1988, with the aim of recreating the great restaurants in the most famous cities all over Italy. Since then, it has consistently achieved high acclaim in its contribution to the definition of "cafe culture" in Australia, originally introducing the concept of Italian hospitality in Melbourne.Small tables, dim lights and high-end service are only some of our secret. "Produzione Artigianale” means strong attention to detail and passion for our culture.A wide selection of wines, freshly baked bread on arrival and top quality extra virgin olive oil will never be missing.The warm welcoming atmosphere, the thick accents and the genuine flavours are perfectly blended, casting a spell that transports you straight to Italy.We have always been driven by the clear and ambitious intention to provide great traditional food, attentive yet friendly service and all around consistency.

DISUKO, cued from Tokyo 1980, split into elements that define the time. Open-air dining, shared izakaya, omakase for occasion, music always.Refound on Melbourne’s city skyline, DISUKO brings those moments forward in a lively and layered setting. Our nomikai, the Terracotta Roof, offers after-hours respite and weekend ease, the izakaya lounge gathers friends over plates made to share, and omakase offers pause for a theatrical food occasion. Each element tied by vinyl selectors, we honour Tokyo’s DISUKO era. A place to reminisce or experience something new in what was Japan's decade of excellent excess — the sake, the ease, the rhythm.

    We booked in for Fork & Walk after reading it in What’s on Melbourne and had the best day. The food was amazing, staff were attentive, friendly and welcoming, the atmosphere was light and fun. We were given plenty of time at each venue without feeling rushed and were given a 10 minute warning before it was time to move to the next venue. A short walk to the next restaurant was a great way to see what else Wi door had to offer. The rain created ambience and didn’t dampen our spirits or enthusiasm. Highly recommended for a Sunday lunch experience - would definitely do something similar again.
