Via Fratelli

Crispy pizza and very tasty risotto and pasta. And don't forget to finish with their amazing Nutella pizza.

Food was great and catered to our big group.
My steak was cooked perfectly. The pizzas and pastas were good portions and great flavours!
All of the staff except one were delightful, they were very attentive, very friendly and welcoming.

The gentleman bringing out food decided to drop the food in the middle of the table and said "sort this out yourselves" instead of delivering the food to the person who had ordered it. He didn't seem very happy.

This restaurant has been a delight to eat at consistently over the past 5 years. Each of the 10+ dishes I have tried has been of great quality, each time, yet the menu remains diverse. The pollo funghi is of particular note. Additionally - the service has been exceptionally courteous and warm each time - from junior staff through to senior. It must be a deliberate initiative from management. Relative to other Italian restaurants in Melbourne the pricing is also exceptionally reasonable. Certainly recommended on all fronts

We ordered five pizzas and they are all fantastic.beautiful dough and toppings.lovely people working on service as well.will be back to try more!

Sorry. One of the worst meals I've had in a long time. The lasagna was terrible. Clumpy Bolognese sauce and virtually no mozzarella. The panna cotta was grainy. Won't be returning any time soon.

Excellent food and friendly service. Calamari awesome. Eggplant to die for. Couldn't eat another mouthful but still managed to wolf down an amazing pizza and chips and. Worth every calorie. Yum!

Tasty food at decent prices.
Reasonably quick and attentive service.
We had someone who had "tricky" dietary requirements and the newly careers with some gluten free options and things like that which help in those circumstances.

Food was great! Highly recommend their chicken&mushroom gnocchi! Arancini was so yummy too. Good service too

Back to this fave local on a Saturday night (3 jan)
Booked and had a table arranged within half an hour of calling. Warm welcome and fresh iced water served to the table. No specials on the menu but the main menu is the same and has not changed for years.it works.
Chicken Parma was great as was my daughters gnocchi chicken with avo
For me no onion or garlic in the sauce made my Parma awesome. Food issues are well catered to.
Great service with awesome food. Happy new year Via Fratelli! May 2021 be so much better that The last one.

Best Italian food in Melbourne! We have gotten takeaway from Via Fratelli 2 weeks in a row and the food has been amazing! Staff are friendly and delivery is very quick.
Highly recommend the Gnocchi Pollo Funghi or Chicken Parmigiana
Will definitely be revisting Via Fratelli

Ordered a special dinner for Father’s Day for my parents. Live other side of town and being in lockdown wanted to do something special. Both loved their meals. Said they were perfectly cooked, salad fresh, chips crispy and steak “cooked to perfection”. Thank you for making Father’s Day date night special for them. Keep up the great work!

New to the area, we got a takeaway from here because of the reviews. But unfortunately it was decidedly average.
The pizza was very cheesy, not loads of flavour in anything else. The gnocchi was a lovely texture but the sauce had no flavor, the arancini again, good texture but not really any flavour, even the sauce that came with it. It all was just a bit meh. Nothing horribly disgusting but also nothing delicious. Unfortunately we won’t be back.

We had take away from here tonight for the second time. Fantastic. They said it would take 30 minutes and it did.impressive. The food was tasty and of a high standard. We had spaghetti marina a pizza and a mussels dish. All were lovely and really tasty and arrived hot, which almost no take away does. Well done, fantastic

Took my wife and two kids there tonight and the food was sensational. Service was friendly and fast and both the pasta and the pizzas were delicious. We'll be back for sure!

It is dinner only place and rightly so.a very quiet and calm place for a good time.we had the veg options.garlic pizza was great.cannelloni decent but a little sour.would like if they had a olive oil plate with mix spices to dip the bread.but u can ask for chilli oil to fill that.a nice place for w good wood fired pizza too

Came here to celebrate a special occasion and waited 45mins with a 2 year old toddler before questioning where our food was.they said they forgot to put our order through, we had to leave as our son was starving and so grumpy, worst service ever! Never had such a disappointing experience.and left hungry!

I love this place. They cater really well for special dietary requirements with GF and low-FODMAP options - it’s the only Italian restaurant I can eat in.
The food is always of excellent quality and cooked to perfection.
The chef is always good at whipping up a menu variation and I can call in advance to ask that a serve of calamari be set aside for me without all or the usual marinade ingredients- they once advised me that I could do this when I said I had special dietary requirements and it has been fabulous. I love that they will do that. Needless to say, it has brought them a great deal of additional customers as I drag all my family and friends there.
The staff also seem to stay on longer than most other restaurants I frequent which is always a good sign, and the owners are usually present, making sure that everyone is having a positive experience. The place is usually packed for dinner.
There isn’t any space for kids to run around in but they do offer colouring materials and high-chairs, along with the standard kids menu. My only criticism would be that the pizza toppings are too sparse, but then that’s what traditional Italian pizza is like so I can’t really fault them for that. My other advice would be to wear layers, as it can get very toasty in the vicinity of the wood-fired oven. Especially after a couple of glasses of vino. Book a table in advance for Fri, Sat and Sunday. Enjoy!

Cute little place with very pleasant atmosphere and super friendly staff. I only had a takeway - ravioli formaggi - but it was of the highest quality.
Definitely coming back to dine in and try more goodies, and certainly somewhat from the Woodfire!

Really good pizza restaurant in the middle of East Malvern. Wood fired and lots of custom options available. If you're looking for a great family meal, this is a really good option.

Unfortunately not that impressive. The quality was similar to what you would serve at home as a quick meal on a school night.
