At Stuzzichino on Lygon Street, the earthy aroma of freshly made pasta fills the air, drawing us into a warm embrace right out of an Italian Nonna's kitchen. This charming eatery offers a genuine taste of Italy through a menu that celebrates local ingredients and classic… recipes. The artisanal pasta is a highlight, cooked to perfection and served alongside beautifully curated antipasti that tantalises the palate.
The rustic decor adds to the inviting atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for both casual catch-ups and intimate dinners. We appreciate how Stuzzichino manages to retain a sense of authenticity while creating a community-focused vibe. If you’re after a slice of Italy in Carlton, dive into their delicious offerings and savour every moment.

Stuzzichino on Lygon Street is a gem.nHands down some of the best pasta I’ve had, fresh, perfectly cooked, and full of flavour. You can tell real care goes into the food. Service was excellent too. Thanks to Marissa and Sarah. Friendly, attentive, and professional without being… over the top. The whole experience felt relaxed and welcoming.

We were staying local and walked in for breakfast and loved the food and we guess perhaps the lady owner with her gruff smiley exterior.nMy calendars with chorizo was perfect and the maple bacon and banana French toast was also just what the other half wanted.nCoffee was good… too but not fancy.nDefinitely worth an early morning visit.
If youu2019re wanting a true authentic family ran Italian restaurant then this is the place to go. The service excellent, the atmosphere excellent, the staff super friendly and make you feel like your family too. Marisa was a fantastic waitress trying to remember our names which… didnu2019t take her long to memorise and recommendations from her did not disappoint. We had Nonnas baked gnocchi, and garlic bread. My mum had Tuscan chicken from the menu and everything was full of flavour! Thank you and we will be back
