Pasta was great but the over experience was quite average. The portions are really small for the price, even for main courses. The chicken livers were the most disappointing dish since I had the same thing in other Italian joints and it usually comes with a few slices of bread, salad and way more flavourful. It’s truly regrettable considering how great the reviews are and the potential of what the place could be.

Such a lovely dinner! Geppetto is a very intimate restaurant that matches a heartwarming atmosphere with delicious food. The staff is attentive, friendly and professional, the food was delicious and carefully presented. A place to experience the Italian culinary tradition in all its aspects. Wide choice of Italian and Australian wines and tasty vegetarian options! We couldn’t resist the delicious desserts and, of course, a proper Italian coffee 🙂 The dining rooms aren’t too big, and even when it gets busy, it still feels calm and intimate.

My partner and I were staying locally. We drove by Geppetto Trattoria, and already there was a welcoming and intimate appearance, which beckoned us to dine there.

Nice Italian restaurant. Foods are delicious and the service is great. The sauce in the seafood pasta, duck meat balls and baby octopus are great. The special of the day beef rib is amazing. Definitely recommend it!

A real gem. My late father’s favourite restaurant and he was quite the epicurean. The food is always superb and generously served. Very friendly and helpful staff. Don’t miss out on one of Melbourne’s best!

I find the food a little bit more than average, but something is missing. Their Bolognese gnocchi and gongorzola pasta were tasty, but not sophisticated enough for the price they charge. More spices and ingredients to give the dishes more richness would be appreciated. Sprinkle some garlic flakes, basil, dried tomatoes etc…be imaginative

Service and food were outstanding – I highly recommend this gem of a restaurant. The homemade pasta Agnolotti Funghi was the best home made pasta I have ever tasted and every single dish served for our table of 10 were delicious. It was a wonderfully authentic Italian experience and has made the list as one of our favourite restaurants in Melbourne!

First time at Geppetto and they did not disappoint! Uncomplicated Italian food I would expect if I had an Italian Grandparent. Slow cooked meats, fresh pasta and the most delicate tiramisu I’ve had in a while. Friendly service and good portions. Dinner for 2 was $165 including corkage.
