I go to A LOT of restaurants but don't review much unless the experience was exceptionally good/bad. My partner and i arrived with two other guests for our 5th visit. My carne salata entree was ok. Still no bread after entrees so had to ask for it and it arrived very lonely without butter or olive oil, had to ask for that as well. I had spaghetti with bottarga, blue swimmer crab and chilli. The serving seemed like entree size for $32. I sent it back as the texture of the spaghetti felt like it was barely blanched. Yeah yeah i'm familiar with the concept of al dente ( to the tooth ) but this was not even close and my partner also tasted and agreed. It came back and was cooked better however it was bland with not much crab and no trace of chilli..at .all. Now my partner has an aversion to chilli and avoids it but she could not taste any in the dish, i sent that back. One of the managers suggested i try the Tortellini with mortadella, prosciutto, parmesan and walnut. The sauce had such an overwhelmingly bitter walnut taste that it made my lips pucker and it had the same effect on the other three people at the table as they also tried it. Terrible. It sat uneaten on the table for some time. When it was eventually taken away i was informed the chef wanted to have a word. Great. I would describe the attitude of the chef/owner Mr Francesco Rota as passive aggressive and yes i did describe his pasta as shitouse. All he had to do to diffuse the situation was apologise and perhaps offer a dessert on the house which most people would be happy with, instead he just walked off. When i pay premium prices i expect premium food and service. When leaving no one thought it might be a good idea to take that dish off the bill until asked. To be fair the previous four times we dined there the experience was good. There will definitely NOT be a sixth time.

Difficult to find, it's in a small unlisted laneway next to 360 Little Collins. Food and service is A grade. Try the tasting plate for entrée.. So many delicious flavours

Delicious experience. Super cute watching the staff have family dinner at the end of the night. They gave us free bread.

Best restaurant I have ever been to!
Without the word of a lie, I have never been to a place that has such a great atmosphere, such great food, and amazing customer service! My partner and I attended and will definitely be back! The restaurant felt really homey and the staff treated us family! Ordered the chicken ragu, and loved it! Amazing taste, I was full but I couldn't leave it behind! Thank you so much for the amazing experience you offered us! I can't wait to come back!response / report this review -

We enjoyed a wonderful meal at Tattoria Emilia. The staff were friendly, accommodating and had a superb knowledge of the wine list. Our meals were delicious and authentic. Recommended!

Regardless of other more negative reviews, I find this little cafe to be extremely attractive. Calm and quite with an eclectic feel, the pastries served during the week are soft and delicate, Sunday lunch elegant and tasty.
An easy meal, and a cafe that is not drowning in its own hype like some other Melbourne destinations. Would recommendresponse / report this review
