    I have been visiting this restaurant for over 10 years and it was always known for amazing food and…read moregreat experiences. Unfortunately, things have changed. Last year we visited again and found the food to be very ordinary and not reflective of the prices. We raised this with the staff and were told by the owner that the chef had left without warning. Given our long history and good memories, it took us some time, but we decided to give it another chance and returned last Sunday (25/1) to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Sadly, the experience was very disappointing. ANTIPASTO DELLA CASA The mortadella, salami, and Wagyu bresaola were very warm, as if they had been sitting next to a fire. They were crispy and oily. We did not send it back, but we didn't eat the meats and only touched the artichokes and sides. LINGUINE MARE We had this dish in October and it was good. This time, the mussels had a strong smell. My wife took one mouthful and couldn't continue. VEAL COTOLETTA My daughter took one bite and said it was raw. After cutting further, it was clearly raw inside, as if it had just come from the butcher. We returned this dish. The waiter came back saying the chef claimed it is "normally raw near the bone." I have never heard of this. Medium or even medium-rare is acceptable, but this was raw. This restaurant used to be one of my favourites, but unfortunately it has gone downhill. It's very sad to say goodbye after so many years, but we won't be returning.

    Amazing Italian food, the seafood pasta was phenomenal. I went here with my family for a birthday,…read moreit truly allowed us to have a lovely time with great food!

    My story I thought was simple …read more I Visited Last Piece to make a booking first week in January for May 30th I made the booking asking if I should make deposit at the time of making the booking. Joe the manager, who was very helpful and friendly said no deposit now is required but closer to the date The functions coordinator will call us next week . No call until mid February no apologies were made. She asked my daughter to email confirming details . My daughter sent email as soon as she got off the phone No reply was ever received. Antoinella called my daughter today and could not remember the previous discussion she had with her 3 weeks ago and didn't even know her name also she advised we have two other groups interested in the same date so you need to make a deposit today or tomorrow. I called Antoinella as it thought it would be easier dealing with me than my daughter since I was the one paying. She was rude and showed no empathy to me not being able to pay today or tomorrow even though I was given the incorrect information. I found her very intimidating and aggressive. So I asked to speak to the owner Adrian. Well things went from bad to worse and his exact words to me were We don't need people like you in my restaurant we have enough business let's cancel your booking. Wow I asked if it's ok then if I leave a google review He said go for it I will just delete ! Really can you do that let's see ..... And today on Facebook the reply from Last Piece Thanks Karen for the review but it was you that canceled the function not me.. I was just thankful that you did.

    A few years back, when Beletti's was brand spanking new it was a busy little hub for those in…read moreDandenong on business or working in the area. Fast forward a few years and the success continued, with good coffee and a decent food available. Fast forward to today, Dandenong has continued to grow and some amazing small businesses have come to the area. I would say since this time Beletti's hasn't been the busy little hub as smaller (and better) coffee shops moved closer to the bigger offices, making the walk to Beletti's for coffee obsolete. Also, with the huge success of The Pavilion just around the corner I'd be surprised if Beletti's hasn't taken a hit. After telling my sister over three years ago (back when it was really good) I'd take her here for brunch, I finally got around to it yesterday. The interior of Beletti's is modern, well-lit and spacious. I've never had bad service here, they're so friendly and welcoming. I just had a latte and a ham, cheese and tomato croissant from the breakfast menu. The coffee was decent, the croissant was quite soggy at the bottom which was disappointing. My sister reported her soy chai was delightful. In its heyday, this place was great. Still good for the odd work meeting or breakfast if you work nearby, or for dinner if you live local. I think it just happens to be that better coffee shops and restaurants have moved into the area in recent years and are in closer proximity to the Dandenong CBD so it makes makes coming to Beletti's a bit... unnecessary, for lack of a better word.

    I was in Dandenong on business and Beletti was at the bottom of my accommodation, Punt Hill. I…read moreventured out onto the street to see what was available to eat and could not see much. I decided to give Beletti a go. I ordered the pork robs for dinner and they are awesome. They have a Jack Daniels marinade that is really tasty. It was a Friday night and the place was half full. Good atmosphere, friendly staff. Defintlety worth a look. Followed up with an Affogatto with Frangelico. Fancy... check out the photo.
