Scopri

The verdict

Lygon Street may be renowned as Melbourne's Italian food mecca, but just one block away, Scopri is serving up some of the finest food and wine from Italy, using incredible local products from artisan producers. Don't leave this establishment without trying their house-made pasta which has to be tasted to be believed (our favourite was the pappardelle with partridge). Best of all, if you have a bottle of wine that you've been saving for a special occasion, bring it along and let the staff at Scorpi take care of the rest.
