Sosta Cucina
Sosta Cucina's owner Maurice Santucci and head chef Travis Humphery both have North Italian heritage, which is expressed in the food and atmosphere of this modest but elegant restaurant in North Melbourne. On offer are many antispati dishes, as well as some creative pastas and risottos. Mains include the likes of coniglio in due modi - rabbit in two ways - baked loin wrapped in pancetta and puff pastry and legs braised with peas and wild fennel. The interior is simple and unpretentious with family photos hanging on the walls and an intimate vibe.

Sometimes it's worth crossing the city for a special meal in a tucked away part of Melbourne and this is definitely the case here. there are lots of traditional Italian dishes here with some marked as vegetarian also. Try the grilled scampi which are absolutely delicious and the snapper fillet. Some of the desserts are also diary-entry material so save some room! The mains are a bit expensive but definitely worth the money!
My mates and I went here for dinner on Wed 8th Dec 2010 after reading a review about it.
The service was not upto scratch - the waiter took which seemed like ages to serve us.
Entree - Affettato misto con verdure e foccacia Genovese - nothing special or different about a mix of cold sliced meats
Mains - Risotto del giorno - It was an asparagus Risotto (of the day). Small serving and very expensive compared to what I have had in other restaurants. Tasted ok but nothing to boast ...read more
I love this place. The staff are very warm and the service is great. Oh but the FOOD! I have never had a bad meal here and everything from salads, pasta to dessert is top notch. The house wine is also something to write home about. This place is an undiscovered gem.
