We had been to Il Solito Posto over 10 years ago on a previous visit to Melbourne & we’re happy to find it was still open. The food was better than we remembered, the silver service & attention to detail was excellent & the price was reasonable for such a special experience. Thank you.

It appeared the restaurant had too many people for the staff employed. 1pm booking and we were taken to our table to 1.45pm. Drink orders were incorrect for the 1st 3 orders. We were bought a coffee before our entree had been served - wrong table.
