Ella Bar Grigliata Pasta brings a taste of Italy to Richmond, combining the lively spirit of a New York-style bar with the freshest Australian ingredients. Experience the unique blend of smoky Grigliata flavors and homemade pasta in a vibrant setting. Savor succulent meats from Western Victoria, grilled to perfection, while the aroma of rosemary and garlic fills the air. Delight in hand-cut pappardelle with slow-cooked ox cheek ragu or enjoy the sweet crunch of caramelized pumpkin arancini. Our menu evolves with the seasons, offering innovative dishes alongside comforting classics. Relish our signature lasagna al forno, layered with rich beef and veal ragu, or the fluffy gnocchi alla Sorrentina topped with fresh mozzarella and basil. Ella Bar Grigliata Pasta is more than just a meal; it’s a sensory experience in a warm, inviting atmosphere that encourages you to relax and enjoy every moment. Join us for a culinary journey that celebrates the best of both worlds.

    Very nice ambience and food. Serving of food is slightly long, and we have to follow up twice, though it was Valentine's Day. :)

    This place was horrendous, but I guess you get what you pay for. Champagne that is actually Yarra valley brut, defrosted prawns and the rest not worth sampling. What a ruinous experience

    Nice venue. Rude and arrogant service by I believe the manager. Place was empty yet wouldn’t let us choose where to sit. Food wasn’t nice. Asked to order cocktails at 9pm and they said no. Would never return
