Best Italian Restaurants in Panton Hill

We had an early table at 5:45 upstairs. It’s a great room and we were sitting in the area between the kitchen and the bar which was quite narrow, but the staff were very attentive and watching always for anyone moving in that narrow section the restaurant had an amazing turnover of people. Which I would think was a testament to the good service and the good food lots of families having, a quick meal plus others who were grazing and enjoying the atmosphere. The fit out is really really wonderful. Everything was tiptop from the time we walked into the restaurant to the time we left. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was exemplary. we had oysters, fish and steak. The steak could’ve melted in my mouth like it was covered in butter, the oysters were incredible. The cheese platter was incredible. You know I have to say for a local restaurant. It’s a nine out of 10. We will be back at least 100 times thanks for looking after us Grazie.

The venue is beautiful with a wide variety of food and drink options. There is lots of space so it's great for families with small children. The service was excellent, very attentive.

We had the shared menu and it never disappoints. The staff are friendly and efficient and it was a perfect spring day to enjoy the outdoor seating and beautiful vistas. It was a lovely afternoon.

Great Experience! We came slightly later, and they were very accomodating.

We always enjoy our time at Nillumbik Estate. Chanmali and her staff treat you like family, and the food is awesome.
