I had such a lovely experience for dinner with my husband before a show on Saturday night. We were greeted warmly and asked about our plans for the evening. We were seeing a show and we were assured we would be out at the time required. We had delicious food - we had the rigatoni bolognaise and a truffle risotto - simple but memorably good. The service was speedy but never felt rushed. Would return anytime.

My fave Italian restaurant in Melbourne. Cosy, warm and absolutely beautiful food. Seafood pastas were a standout.

Love our experience here!! The staff were friendly even though it was as busy as ever. They gave really good recommendations based on what you’re looking for and didn’t oversell. We really enjoyed our food and time here! The recommendations were great, the seafood was fresh, and everything was just perfect.

Visited twice in the same week, just because the pasta was too good. Good texture and full of flavour. The tiramisu was original, with moisture and coffee. Decent choice of wine and some good choice by the glass. Staff are very friendly too. Relatively easy to get a seat by one person but generally should require booking.

Can't go wrong here, food tastes amazing and fresh. Nothing mind-blowing, but the beauty is in the simplicity that's perfectly done. Service was great and atmosphere was so cozy and nice. Booked for a date and couldn't fault them on anything. Highly recommend if you want a cozy, comfortable dinner date spot. Particularly loved the herb bread and rigatoni.

I first came to Il Solito Posto back in the mid-2000s, and it’s honestly one of the restaurants that helped define my love for good food and wine. Walking back in all these years later brought back a lot of memories. This was the place where I first tried a Rockford Basket Press, and where I had some of the best Italian food I’d experienced outside of Italy at the time. It opened my eyes to how powerful the combination of great produce, thoughtful cooking, and the right wine pairing can be. What makes Il Solito Posto special is that it doesn’t try too hard - it just focuses on doing things properly. The atmosphere still carries that classic Melbourne charm, the food is comforting yet refined, and the wine list continues to be a highlight. For me, this restaurant will always hold a special place. It’s not just a meal - it’s a reminder of where my food and wine journey really began.
