Trattoria Emilia

Trattoria Emilia is an intimate Italian restaurant tucked inside a heritage-listed building in the centre of Melbourne, serving authentic dishes from the Emilia-Romagna region.

Everything is made from scratch with the highest quality ingredients including silky handmade tortellini, gnocco fritto with prosciutto, slow-cooked ragù, and seasonal produce-driven plates. The menu celebrates time-honoured recipes using local and imported ingredients, lovingly prepared by chefs who bring the soul of Italy and Emilia-Romagna to every dish.

The space is warm and rustic, with vintage charm, friendly service, and a thoughtfully curated wine list focused on Italian varietals. Whether it’s date night, a long lunch or dinner with friends, this is the spot for those who love food that tells a story.
