Couldn't recommend Pacino's enough! We had our end of year work christmas party there and the quality of food and friendly service was fantastic. They helped make our night great and even fired up the pizza oven again to make us a nutella pizza! Massive shout out to Elvis and the team, we'll be back.
Been here quite a few times and the food and service is high quality. The other night I came in and ordered the Meatballs and Calamari salad. The meals came in under 10 mins which was fantastic. The meatballs is the best Ive ever had, cooked to perfection. The calamari was soft and melts in your mouth and not chewy. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who has thought of going. I promise you wont be disappointed.

The family restaurant in Flemington where you can enjoy steaks, pizzas, grills and many more. They have quite a big seating area both inside and outside and it's perfect for large groups. They are located in Showgrounds Village Shopping Centre and parking is not an issue as there is parking around the restaurant if you’re driving and it is located in front of a tram stop which makes it handy if you’re taking public transport.
There is such a good variety on the menu and a large variety on the pizzas. We took awhile to decide what to get as we wanted to try abit of everything.
We went with the pizza, mixed grill, caesar salad, angus burgers and pasta. Could not even pick a favourite as the dishes were all great. Really enjoyed the salad and it complements the dish. The pizzas had a good amount of ingredients and the flavours were good. Don't forget to try their homemade gnocchi as I thought that was really good.
The portions of the dishes were good and can also be for sharing. The staff here is really friendly and attentive.
I have been a local at Pacinos for years now as they have always been very consistent in their food.

An unpretentious Italian restaurant that excels in what it’s doing, Pacino’s is well-loved by the locals and it’s not hard to see why. Here you can get pizzas, pastas, salads, seafood, BBQ meat, amongst others and the spacious space makes it excellent for big groups. With a relaxed and casual vibe, Pacino’s is a local restaurant that we all deserve in our life.
A feast awaited us here and I am hard-pressed to fault anything here. The Garlic Prawns was the highlight of the night. Big juicy king prawns in a creamy garlic sauce, this was incredible to say the least. The Mixed Grill is perfect for sharing, featuring tender and meaty cuts of pork ribs, lamb cutlets, pork sausages, chicken tenderloin, chorizo and beef skewers.
The Tandoori Chicken pizza, and Prosciutto Pizza hit the spot too. Crisped yet soft pizza base, with an even crispier crust, and very generous with toppings. The Gnocchi Bolognese was my favourite out of the three pastas that we tried – rich, thick and a beautiful depth of flavour. Even the Caesar Salad wowed with its creamy yet bright and tangy flavours.
With so much delicious food, we were left bursting at the seams, yet incredibly contented. Thank you for the meal.
Pacinos are known for their pizzas. This is my local gem for me. The pricing for pizzas are very cheap especially when you compare it to its quality and size.
The atmosphere is great. Very family welcome. Always loud (but not too loud) enough for you to talk and laugh.
If you want any pop reference I feels like it's the sex and the city's usual spot where the girls meet always.
The service always friendly. Very welcoming and attentive.
The only reason why I'm giving it a 4 stars, is because of prices for other food items. Pasta are around $25 (you can get largest pizza for $18) even Caesar salad price is at about $20+ but the food tastes great!
Got served by Catalina, good service goes above and beyond. Great food and atmosphere
Catalina (if I am spelling correctly) served us at our table, I was so indecisive and she went to great lengths to make sure she didn’t leave the table until I was completely happy with my order, what a great waitress she is, I hope to see her when I come back. Food is always great, such a great Italian restaurant at and affordable price!

Pacinos is a traditional Italian restaurant in Flemington. The venue is very spacious and the staff are all very friendly.
I loved the Arancini to start - they were very soft, moist and flavourful, and I couldn’t stop eating the pesto aioli! The Baked Scallops were also enjoyable too - the scallops were cooked nicely, although I did find the garlic butter to be quite heavy.
The Lamb CousCous was quite nice. I really liked the couscous paired with all the roast vegetables and the creamy yoghurt dressing. The lamb was quite overcooked though so it was quite chewy.
The Linguini Marinara came in a generous portion, with plenty of shellfish and pasta. It was cooked well and, although slightly on the oily side for me, it was still enjoyable.
For pizza, we tried the Rosemary and Potato pizza with added pumpkin (because we love pumpkin). This was my first time trying potato on pizza and it works surprisingly well! It’s not the best for the waistline (carbs on carbs), but the potatoes were cooked till soft and the caramelised onion gave a really nice hint of sweetness. The crust was crispy and thin which I liked.
Thank you for having us.

📝: Pacino’s Restaurant specializes in Australian-influenced Italian cuisine—primarily a pizza and pasta restaurant, but also specializing in seafood, grilled meat, parma’s, and much more.
❤️: All the pizzas here are house made, fresh to order. We opted for something different—Rosemary & Potato pizza, with mozzarella, bocconcini, caramelized onions, and extra pumpkin.
There’s also a range of pastas to choose from, including the Seafood Linguine Marinara that we loved.
For something a little different, we chose the Grilled Lamb Couscous with vegetables, pesto and yoghurt dressing. A taste of Italy fused with Victorian-sourced produce.
Food was good and service was amazing, but a major drawback was that all the dishes were really salty.
the ribs were fantastic 👍generally a very decent meal for the price 👍service is always good keep up the good work will definitely be back 🍻
Came for the parma night special - was more than satisfied with both the range and quality of the parmas offered. I ordered the Texan meatlovers parma with delicious sticky rib sauce that I ended up saturating the plate in. Portion size was decent, however chips were scarce, and also steer clear of the house red, it’s nasty. Warm and cosy atmosphere despite how busy it is, and also speedy dependable service. Will be back again!
Great food and good vegetarian/ vegan options.We enjoyed place, food and had an amazing family time!
We tried homemade Gnocchi, Rosemary Potato and Pumpkin Pizza. Must Try!!
Great place to eat - reasonable pricing and big portions. We got the bruschetta, seafood pasta and a pizza - all super delicious and we were so full by the end of it. They also provided takeaway containers so we could enjoy it the next day. Staff super friendly as well!
Wonderful family restaurant to dine at. Staff were very attentive and service was great! We had a booking for 16ppl and the food was delicious. Some of the best pasta I've had in a long time. It was to celebrate my dad's birthday and we were able to bring our own cake without charge. Five stars from me and will DEFINITELY be back!
Had been wanting to try this one for a long time. Went there for a late lunch. Not too crowded because of the odd hours and the food came quick. Staff was great and food was alright. Might have to come again to try a few different things
The restaurant is family friendly, reasonable prices, staff are very friendly and helpful. My family was here for Monday night Parma $12 plus side extra $2. The Parma is very big serve can serve two people. Taste good.
Their pizzas is delicious my kids love it.
Absolutely fantastic, highly recommend this place. I have gone multiple times and have never been disappointed.
When I first tried here I thought the prices might have been higher than I'd like but I got way more food than I expected and it tastes incredible.
The owner has always been welcoming, and adjust food as needed for dietary requirements.
If you are looking for the most authentic Italian food, restaurant and food, then eat here.
Beautiful place, staff really friendly and attentive. Music is so fitting, really good atmosphere! Food yummy ! Vito, I'm guessing the owner, very friendly and remembered my name when I came back.
Some of the best pizza I've had while in Melbourne. They where sadly quite empty at the time we went. I hope they get more customers really nice place.
