The Italian You Love,
Reinvented with Plants—
In a converted 19th-century warehouse on Hardware Lane, Funghi e Tartufo – meaning Mushrooms and Truffle, in honour of our signature dish – serves the Italian dishes you know and love, 100% plant-based.
Lasagne, arancini, meatballs, tiramisù: every recipe starts from the Italian original and is rebuilt, ingredient by ingredient, until it tastes just as you remember. Many of our guests don’t eat vegan, and they often tell us they can’t tell the difference.
Our new wine list travels through a dozen Italian regions, from Valle d’Aosta to Sicily, with many DOC and DOCG wines and rare native grapes such as Timorasso, Sagrantino and Aglianico. Every wine is vegan. Italian wines by the glass from $14, bottles from $59.
Our Chef and founder Alessandra D’Angelo moved to Melbourne from Italy in 2009, but she has never really left: every year she travels back to Italy, tasting her way through trattorias and markets and bringing new ideas home. That’s how our Italian classics stay authentic and up to date.
In the News
This CBD newcomer is dishing up a top-notch, plant-based take on Italian fare, from bolognese arancini to creamy carbonara.
Melbourne has for many years had a love affair with Italian food. More recently, we’ve developed a reputation for loving vegan food, too. So when you combine the two, it’s gotta be good, right?
