You know any store is worth visiting if you're willing to cross town for it. Double that if you're…read moreinstantly impressed upon entering- visually at first, then with the ability to find both items you want, and need. The supermarket end is always well stocked, the qaulity of produce both fresh and aged impeccable, and you can get just about anything you're after. Which is a relief if you've ever been to a bodgy supermarket that is scant in offerings, and leaves you a slightly depressed. In fact Boccaccio is the complete opposite; a happy place that's always chockers with an incredible range. The Cheese section is enormous for the shop of it's size, the deli is on par, fruits and veggies are all there, and all in great fresh qaulity; the layout of the shop and selection of items are well thought out and chosen well. Boccaccio, both for the cellars and it's supermarket are absolute first rate when it comes to qaulity shopping with extensive and well sought range and breadth of fresh groceries of every kind. The supa Iga has you covered for: produce, green groceries, cheese, meat, and everything else, it's incredible; I don't think I've found another supermarket that can match it. It's worth noting here the most integral decision for choosing to visit- that it's not any of the big two supermarkets. Onto the bottle shop ergo the actual cellars; a brilliant offering of high qaulity wines of all kinds, beers, spirits which are broken down wonderfully into their respective categories, and any other form of bloody decent tipple you may fancy. in short all the alco-wholes, done very well.

Boccaccio's has the best customer service.

However i found it rather odd that the rest of the store was quiet and the staff did not seem to be friends with each other as none of them where talking. Over all, It made my day very enjoyable and i recommend Boccaccio's to everyone.

The staff have always known there stuff whenever I asked them questions. They have categorized the beers well also with Belgians in one area, English in another and Aussie beers down the back for some reason. The only critism I have is it would be good if they offered some deals if you buy a decent amount of drinks.

I have visited here many times bring friends who have all waljed away raving. The reason i was initially hooked however, was being new to the industry i walked in not know where to look and found great advice here with no pretenious attitudes just very welcoming and most of all an endless selection of amazing wines.

Better still, add some cheeses, some cold meats, (italian) and presto you would have a winner for the Kooyong and Toorak locals. With a great BYO Thai a few doors down it would be a hit with Thai customers but it rellay just lacks that budda bing and variety. Wine companies hello, how about gettin in the ear of the owners and making some marketing suggestions, tastings, add a splash of color and I am sure the old 'build it and they will come' approach will work here. Overall for a quick bottle, I am sure you will find one to suit your taste, just don't go searching for the favourite as your choice is limited.
