  • A classic white linens set up complete with its typical charming Italian waiters, it has the right ambiance. Concertina window opened up the the outdoor experience while sitting undercover, great feature. Food always good and enjoyable, wines too. Just how a modern Italian restaurant should be.

  • Fine dining friendly staff and a real upmarket ambiance. Good value and great food. Best calamari in Melbourne. Wood fired pizza is great too.

  • We attended last night for a birthday party. The staff were fantastic in a very crowded area, cheery and very efficient. The food was amazing, delicious, beautifully presented, one of the best meals I have had in a long time. I would heartily recommend Di Palma to everyone for a great night out.
