Buono Restaurant & Bar
Parkdale, Melbourne
40-50YRSA hidden gem! Parkdale probably isn’t the first place that springs to mind when you think of high-end Italian food.

The trio has nailed the seaside brief by filling the space with marine hues. Think teal banquette seating, white painted brick walls, and aqua bar tiling laid to invoke the Mediterranean Sea.

Va Tutto
Ivanhoe, Melbourne
60+YRS"Coming from Zio’s in East Melbourne, owners Paul and Myrto Recinella decided to pack up and move a little further out of town. Taking a wealth of knowledge about fine Melbourne dining with them; the duo didn’t settle into a relaxing suburban lull. Instead, they built upon the idea of creating an oasis of quality food outside of the city. The carefully constructed modern Italian cuisine, fused with Asian flavours and techniques, creates a menu of exciting and varied dishes." - Broadsheet
