Cafe Italia, Carlton

Jul 26, 2009 by glutenshmooten

I love this place, it’s one of my favourite restaurants in Melbourne because it’s easy – you can go there for a full meal or just desert and know that you will get consistently good food and service. This restaurant is very aptly named “cafe italia” – the atmosphere is just beautiful, it really does feel like you are in a nice little cafe in Italy. Tucked away in a laneway off Lygon St, walking into cafe italia feels like you are walking into someone’s private courtyard. The garden style setting is perfect for a nice leisurely lunch in summer or cosy dinner by the fireplace in winter.

The menu is made up of meat / chicken / fish dishes (many of which are gluten free), pizzas (not gluten free), pastas (not gluten free) and risottos (some gluten free). For desert there is a selection of cakes, usually there is at least one gluten free option, or you can just go for a nice coffee or hot chocolate!
