    Great food, wine and service. I went for an early dinner and I am from out of town. Complete guess with the place but it turned out really well. Highly recommend.

    Scugnizzo is one of Melbourne's hidden gems. The food is amazing, the staff are lovely and I've never had a poor experience. I've booked large groups and also intimate tables and all attendees have enjoyed the venue and were blown away with the experience.

    Amazing dishes as always. Pasta was delicious and the steak cooked to perfection together with a reasonably priced lovely bottle of Italian Chianti. We will certainly be back. On of our family favourites when we are in the city.

    Wonderful food and great service. The menu was a bit limited but certainly enough choices. The swordfish pasta was particularly nice. Good bar and wine list too. Bit odd entering via a back lane(?).

    What a great find in the city. The food was amazing (especially the Ravioli and Risotto) and there were also some excellent Italian wines by the glass to try. The service was outstanding, and we will definitely be back.
