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.

    We love this restaurant. Delicious Italian food and wine and a lovely ambience. The staff are skilled and knowledgeable and take time to talk about the food and wine. We’ll keep coming back for more.

    We had a lovely afternoon meal at Maccaroni. The Bruschetta was amazing. Our mains were Ravioli & seafood risotto which we couldn’t fault. A terrific dining experience with helpful friendly staff. We will definitely return!

    Delicious and authentic Italian dinner. Lovely service, only spoiled by being welcomed to an early booking with the greeting with ‘don’t be too long, we’ll need your table for another booking’. Totally contrary to the sense of hospitality that the rest of the restaurant is working so hard to create.

    Food and service was great. However there was extremely loud dance music being played that did not suit the restaurant style.
