Cecconi's Flinders Lane

We had a wonderful meal and experience at Cecconi's. The food was fantastic and wait staff even better. Lively atmosphere but not so loud so as to not be able to carry on a conversation.

Wonderful night at Cecconi's: great food, great service and good atmosphere. We shared 3 entrees, calamari, beef carpaccio and seared tuna, and than as main course we had pork fillet and barramundi fillet. All delicious, but I have to say that the tuna and the pork with chestnuts puree were absolutely spot on!

Fantastic food. Fantastic service. Lovely setting. I had the quail and seafood linguini and my fiancé had the quail and rabbit gnocchi. All of it was amazingly cooked. The quil was delightful, rabbit is usually hard to cook, but this one just fell apart in your mouth. The linguini was cooked to perfection. And dessert just topped everything off nicely.

Visited Cecconis many times.High standards always maintained.Food on the little expensive but always good.so I guess you get what you pay for.Excellent wine list at ridiculous prices.

I had a lovely time catching up with a friend for a birthday celebration. The food was delicious and the restaurant had an elegant but relaxed atmosphere. We had an early sitting and they were very accomodating to not rush us out the door on my special evening. Thank you Cecconi's for the great experience, I will definitely be back!

Perfect night!! Absolutely loved everything about Cecconi's food, presentation and service. Our host for the night was so helpful in making menu choices and making sure that we were enjoying ourselves , extremely attentative.

Food is great, and so is service. We really enjoy the time there. The lamb shoulder is a plus, and pasta is fanastic. Will definitely come back again.

The food was fantastic and the restaurant had a great atmosphere. The service was very good and I would highly recommend for a great Italian dining experience.

Great food and wonderfull pleasant staff and service, environment was warm and inviting. Reasonably priced for the quality. Very heavy front door and quite breezey if you are sitting near it when someone enters.

Food was amazing and our waiter was so friendly and helpful. The cocktails were Devine. A must try if visiting melbourne. Cant wait to go back

We arrived early as we couldn't find a cocktail bar before hand. Went to the bar at cecconis, had to stand at the bar waiting for our drinks for about 8 minutes. We sat outside waiting for our table. Our waitress appeared to have been getting 'told off' by the head waitress before she came to our table, which seemed to put her in a rushed, somewhat annoyed mood. The service seemed rushed and as if we were an inconvenience. The food was delicious but the service left a sour taste in my mouth. No pun intended. At the end of the night we were contemplating dessert, I said to my wife if the waitress comes over soon we'll get dessert otherwise we will be waiting all night. Suffice to say, she was no where to be seen so we asked for the bill. After we had paid and had been siting for a good 5 minutes getting ready to leave the waitress finally came up asking if we wanted dessert.... We did about 20 mins ago love. Great restaurant with exceptional food. Was let down a bit by the waitress/ service.

My wife and I dined here on Friday 18/11. After a slow start (wanted to order a beer but couldn't catch the eye of staff) wait staff were quite good. Friendly, patient and appeared knowledgeable about the food and wine. I had the soup of the day which was duck consommé with veal and port tortellini. Beautiful consommé and tasty pasta. My wife had the scallops which were beautifully cooked and presented - she tells me they were good but didn't offer me one! For mains I had the lamb which was very good. Lamb was done two ways, braised and oven roasted (looked like back strap). Very tasty. My wife had the rib eye which was cooked as ordered (Medium Rare), tender and tasty. She was happy. We both had the dessert tasting plates to finish. They were very good, consisting of some poached fruit with quenelle of gelati, a coffee cup with foam and mousse with a milk icecream and a piece of olive cake. Overall we were happy and would go again. Not a cheap night but you know that already.

AMAZING food, service and atmosphere. Will return very soon. Highly recommend the scallops for entrée and the veal for main. HAVE to try the chocolate martini too.

It was my birthday celebration and I chose Cecconi's because I had heard good reviews about it. I am pleased to say that our dining experience was excellent and most importantly everyone of us concurred that the meals were most enjoyable. We left the restaurant feeling satisfied and happy. I would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for good food, good wine and services.

Great restaurant serving delicious food at reasonable prices for a high quality restaurant. Better than Vu Du Monde in my opinion both in the quality of the food and value for money. Cosimo our waiter was fantastic and knowledgeable. A great experience! Elio

The restaurant was great. Food was very good. The services was okay but the staff needed to be more attentive. Overall good experience. Would recommend to friends

First time here and the food was amazing. Flavours were fantastic. Service was excellent and professional. Celebrated my partners birthday and was provided with a cute little birthday plate at the end of the night.

Our experience at Cecconi's Flinders Lane was exceptional. Professional and friendly service; food was tastefully presented and full of flavour; ambience was intimate and un-intrusive.

Being close to Christmas, the restaurant was very full so conversation was very difficult. The service was good, the food was good although my veal was slightly over cooked, the squid was very good.

Enjoyed their $39 lunch deal which includes 2 courses and a glass of wine. Great selection of items from menu and nice environment and professional.

I havent been to Cecconis for a long time and was trilled the service amazing and food sensational, fantastic wine list. Looking forward to going back soon

Great food, service and atmosphere. Loved everything single thing about it. We had three courses, a G&T nad a glass of wine and coffee. True indulgence.

The restaurant was lovely and the food excellent. My guests were particularly impressed as they had not been there before. Try the chocolate cherry ganach, it was lovely.

Beautiful food, beautiful setting and efficient but some of the wait staff could be friendlier- they were just about the business. Overall we had a great time and we would come back.

I always enjoy coming here, the food was delicious and service was friendly. I always find it frustrating though that if you don't put water, or even the sparkling water that you pay for, at the table then I would expect the waiters to be checking to refill all the time! I also felt that the coffee was very slow to come out. A few little improvements but overall good.

Delicious food. Dessert was amazing. Service is excellent. A very pleasurable experience. When we booked we had told them it was our anniversary and they sent out some delicious truffles saying 'happy anniversary', which was a lovely touch.

Consistently great food and service in a lovely venue. Cecconi has maintained such a high standard over the years that we are never disappointed, a must for all diners!

Amazing Italian food and the service was impeccable! There were so many delicious choices on the menu it was hard to decide but everything we had was amazing! The prawn risotto was a stand out! Thank you!

The service was attentive without being intrusive. Food was presented well and tasted delicious. We were celebrating a special birthday and the staff made it a very special celebration for us. We always feel special at Cecconi's.

Perfect evening A1 service awesome food extensive and varied menu. The ambience and lighting sets a certain mood, great atmosphere, spacious setting, Fine dining at it's finest

Cecconi's never disappoints with great food, great wine list, great service and the ambience is just wonderful. For special occasions this is a must, with the high standard being maintained over many years of our patronage.

Excellent food which was beautifully presented combined with thoughtful and courteous service. What else could one ask for. Would Highly recommend this wonderful restaurant to all. Will be back

First time there and will recommend to others Great service and of course good food . Looking forward going again . Friendly staff and great waiter service

The staff were very Aattentive, the food was fresh delicious and served without much wait between courses and the atmosphere was busy and vibrant, highly recommended

Excellent presented restaurant food was amazing and the service was first class would highly recommend this restaurant for anyone who has got a special occasion or just wants a fine dining experience

A hidden jewel atop Flinders Lane, this Italian classic has lost none of its charm, nor its capacity to churn out delicious dishes. The carpaccio was sublime, the arancini a flavour explosion and the duck for main only made way for the sorbetto to finish the meal perfectly.

Food was pretty good, but not really worth the price given what else is available in Melbourne. The dessert platter was left at our table with no explanation as to what was on the plate. The pork was pretty good. The tiramisu had far too much coffee.

From the moment we walked in we were looked after very well by the waitress, the service was fantastic. They were very knowledgeable about the menu and had great recommendations. The food was fantastic couldn't fault it. Two waitresses even came out and sung happy birthday to my girlfriend with her dessert. Can't wait to go back 👌

This was my first time at Cecconi's and the experience was outstanding. Food is sensational, and the lovely lady who served our table was very knowledgeable about the menu options and was able to provide some excellent advice.

Fantastic!!! Service was A++ and food was amazing. Great ambiance too. Definitely would recommend it to family and friends in the future. Thanks for a great night
