I've been to Ladro a number of times now and on each occasion it has been a very pleasant experience. The service is really friendly and the pizzas are up there to rival the likes of DOC, +39 and other upscale Italian pizza joints. The pizzas have a nice thin crust and take a minimalistic approach to toppings which I'm a fan of. The Badabing pizza comprising of Italian sausage, provolone, fresh basil and chilli has to be my personal favourite. Chilli on a pizza just works real well! The wine list is quite extensive and our server recommended an excellent bottle of wine that complimented the food and didn't cost an arm and a leg. The bomboloni (Italian doughnuts with ice cream and blood orange syrup) was pretty special too. NB: This is a very family friendly venue. There have been lots of happy families here when we've visited.

This Pizza restaurant is well known for doing old school pizza right. On a Friday evening and with a party of three, we tried our luck to get a seat in the usually booked out restaurant. Lucky for us they don't reserve the cosy courtyard out back. Definitely not as stylish as the interior, but you still get served the same food. Out back we did have close access to the unisex toilet, which is taking part of the trend of having Aesop soaps fastened to the wall, yet these were over a laundry trough. As to the food, the ravioli melted in the mouth and the toppings on the pizza could have been picked in Sicily that morning. Fresh is definitely an understatement. A glass of Pinot matched the food well. The staff were attentive and courteous as well as sharing some smiles and wit.

Dolce dessert. Cinnamon pannacota. Coffee.

WOW finally I have found an authentic Italian place that does gluten free pizza (handmade ones at that). So good that I kept on saying to my wife over & over again "I want another one, I want another..." but I settled for dessert which was quite as good. What more can I say about this place? Very very good.

Great food, Great service. Pizzas are a must! I recommend the Leek & Gorgonzola as well as the Scout (didn't try the pasta).

Review Highlights - Ladro

I generally can't eat a whole pizza but Ladro pizzas are just irresistible (and the crispy crust is very thin).

Pellegrini's is a classic and a required visit when in Melbourne. While it calls itself an espresso…read morebar it is also an informal Italian restaurant. Well aged it's in counter format and likely has not changed much over the years. I ordered the lasagne which was good. Even better was this creamy smooth espresso in a proper cup. Delicious. Service is pleasant but you are there to go back in time, perhaps a simpler time.

This is a very late review. 13 years ago in 2009 I and my wife we were backpack traveling and…read morevisited this place two times in one an half days, the food/drinks were good, but what made me remember this place so long is the hospitality of the staff, when he found out that we are leaving Australia soon he offered free cake/ice cream and a simple of some pasta, not just this, he also give us a discount and told all customers (not too packed on that'll day) "they are not coming back tomorrow, the day after tomorrow and next week, why don't I give them some discount", what a warming memory! Since then I have moved to US and visited Italy a couple of times, visited so many Italian restaurants/espresso bars, I still remember this place so well, today I'm looking my old blog and saw the pictures I took during that trip, why don't I just post an review and let everyone know this place has good food/drink, and nice staff. Hope I can visit this place sometime in the future!
