I have been to Il Cantuccio twice already and I just love it! It’s really a true Italian experience and the atmosphere is wonderfully warm an d inviting. I have been in Italy many times and I can say Il Cantuccio just brings up those memories. Pasta is just delicious and I have no words to describe the Tiramisu...just amazing. The Chef’s Special Risotto Salmone and Spinach, which was a mouth-watering mix of Arborio Rice, smoked salmon, spinach, tomato, and cream. Service is quick and very friendly, always aware.
I definitely recommend Il Cantuccio if you are around Melbourne!
Bellissimo! Italian food at it's finest! 5 out of 5 for service, food and atmosphere. The staff were friendly during our whole dining experience, catered for all the little changes we required in our orders. Unlike other stores along Lygon, I didn't feel pressured when walking past here, and didn't feel pressured while going over the menu. I had the meatballs from their special menus which I strongly recommend if it's still on the menu. Serving size is generous. Looking forward to going back
Il Cantuccio is a wonderful Italian restaurant. The wait staff are so friendly they make you feel right at home. The food here is delicious and definitely worth what you pay for it. They also offer a take-away option, and there is a function room for medium sized groups.
