From the guys at Sooshi Mango, Johnny, Vince, and Sam's Ristorante is a one-of-a-kind restaurant that takes you back in time. Every signora (woman) and her cugini (cousin) are checking out this NEW restaurant in Carlton, bringing families together while they dance the tarrantella. From the intricate floral carpets to the elegant crystal cabinets and the charming beige and brown plates, every element of this place exudes daggy Nonna vibes. Mamma used to love visiting her Nonni on Sundays for lunch, and this restaurant reminds her of those wonderful memories. With a warm and inviting ambience full of nostalgic surprises, Johnny, Vince, and Sam's Ristorante is the perfect place to enjoy a fun and memorable dining experience that will leave you smiling from ear to ear.

The menu includes some favourite old-school Italian recipes, like spaghetti with meatballs, veal cotollete, mortadella and salami options and pizzas just how Nonna used to make them. There are even kids' options that are generous in size. With a mouth covered in sauce, Little Miss 8 gave it two massive thumbs up! Mamma’s favourite was the patate with’ a de peepers and Angela’s arancini, but there is still so much more Mamma wants to give a go.

Looking to grab a bite? No reservations needed. The restaurant is currently accepting walk-ins only. Keep in mind this place is NEW and gets busy, Mamma says get in for lunch or an early dinner, things seem to be a little quieter.
