Old world Italian cafe.Don't let the setting fool you.Venture in and you will be delighted. Warm hospitality. Divine cakes and food.Top notch.They take pride in their cakes,pastries, biscuits, food and coffees. Love love love it.

It’s easy to overlook this place in a sea of trendy cafes, however if you are looking for some truly delicious and authentic Sicilian desserts look no further.

I love this place. The food and coffee's are the best I've ever had. The owners are such friendly and lovely people. It's got a very homely feel to it.

Very old fashioned Italian bakery. You are transported in Milano or Torino at the end of 19th century. Good traditional Italian pastries. Good coffee. Large choice of home made Ice cream No Wi-Fi

What a fantastic old-skool Italian pasticceria! I often miss the biscoti I would get at Cafe Roma im Little Italy, and this place makes em just like back home. Bravo!

I spent three dollars on a jam biscuit, and the jam was severely lacking. I regretted the purchase as it made my mouth quite dry. The staff seemed very nice though.

Have you? I bet you haven't. I bet you've never gone to Aquilana and bought their gelato by the box, paid for it by weight (it lasts us two a week) and taken it home. omg. OMG!

So authentic and delicious. The staff are delightful.

Best Italian Birthday cakes in Melbourne, one of the last left. Really good price too.

The best coffee on Smith Street. A thick, black espresso from an Italian family.
