Mamma has found a great spot for Italian in Bundoora! Roccella Italian in Uni Hill serves up traditional southern Italian food, with everything from antipasti and handmade pasta to wood-fired pizza made with their long-matured sourdough. They’re open all day too, starting with Italian pastries and Calabrese-inspired breakfasts before moving into lunch and dinner.

One thing Mamma loves about Roccella is that they are Coeliac Australia accredited, so there are plenty of gluten-free options available across the menu. You can enjoy gluten-free pizza, pasta and plenty of other dishes, meaning the whole famiglia can sit down together and order from the same menu without anyone feeling like they’re missing out!

If you’re looking for a tasty lunch without blowing the budget, check out their Lunchella menu! For just $25, you get a starter and a main, with a new menu every day. Even better, there’s no extra charge for gluten-free. Lunchella runs Monday to Friday from 11am–3pm, making it a great option for a midweek lunch date.

And there’s plenty more to love, with Italian coffee, pastries, an extensive menu of pasta and pizza, kids options and even Italian goodies and ready-to-eat meals to take home. Roccella is a great option for a casual family meal, a long lunch or simply when you’re craving a good plate of Italian food. Mamma says buon appetito!
