La Madonna - a Good Food Guide listed day to night dining and drinking enclave dedicated to spontaneous menus, a celebration of local produce and the spirit of sustainability. Acclaimed Melbourne chef, Paul Turner playfully riffs on cuisines and technique all delivered with a creative, relaxed finesse.

Enjoy menu highlights such as Wagyu bresaola with romesco, pickled zuchinni and togarashi, pan-fried gnocchi with kimchi, broccoli and fresh curds and a signature dry aged duck dish…. with a barrel aged cocktail or wine at hand.

Or perhaps wind down after a busy day at La Madonna Bar. With plenty of comfortable couches and dimly lit corners to enjoy a cocktail, or two and a selection of snacks. Sink into a seat surrounded by wooden barrels and glass bottles ageing various cocktails, tinctures and spirits.

    Very disappointed that menu items were unavailable, entree was not all served at the same time for all guest and they forgot one entree, but did make when we asked. A drink we ordered was also forgotten and we had to ask for it again. Food was underwhelming and very bland. Staff were friendly.

    We went to have a birthday dinner with a very happy mood, but a man who looked like a manager ruined the cake we brought. I can't understand why the cake was already on a tray and they had to move it to the plate. It was very unnecessary for me, and caused the color of my cake to fall off in many places. What made us most angry was that when the manager took it, he left without saying an apology. After giving us the cake, he never served us again. This made me feel that he was very guilty and evasive. I think this is a very low-level mistake. Finally, the food was very ordinary. This will be the worst restaurant I have eaten in Melbourne. There will not be a next time.

    Absolutely fantastic dining experience at La Madonna! The crispy duck was the star of the evening – perfectly cooked and an easy 10/10. We tried four dishes in total, and every single one was delicious and well-presented. The food is definitely worth the value, and you can tell great care goes into each dish. The service is amazing also! Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality and flavor!

    I have to say food was not bad, but we got a very arrogant waiter . I wouldn’t go there again and I wouldn’t recommend .
