Scarpetta

Best Known For

Scaloppini al Marinaio: saddle of veal, sizzled to perfection, with Tasman scallops, potatoes, seasonal vegetables and bisque.

Capturing the essence of Italy without leaving Albert Park, Scarpetta Cucina e Bar on Victoria Avenue serves authentic fare and great service to Melburnian foodies. A destination-worthy diner for pizza and pasta, this venue exudes a warm, welcoming vibe of softly glowing pendent globes, a busy bar for cheeky cocktails and white-clothed tables, ideal for group dining as well as an intimate dinner. Choose a drop from an extensive wine list, while perusing a menu offering starters such as duck and mushroom arancini with aioli, or deep-fried calamari and salad; for the main affair, be tempted by fettuccine with chicken, avocado, pesto, Napoli and crushed macadamias; or gourmet pizza slices like salsicce – mushrooms, pork and fennel sausage, truffle oil and fior di latte, on a tomato base.
