Had the mozzarelle fritte, carnivora and suprema.

Mozzarelle fritte was really good. Crunchy on the outside and the cheese was stringy when you bit into it.

Carnivora was nice. Salty from the prosciutto.
Suprema was alright. Kind of plain.
Pizza base was the best. Thin and chewy base. Crispy and chewy crust. Surprisingly, it's very filling. Looks like the pictures.

Staff was nice. Not many people during 6pm on a Friday. I wouldn't go back, too expensive for what I'm getting. $28 for Canivora, $26 for Suprema and $16 for the mozzarelle fritte. $10 for sparkling water.

We were in the Essendon neighbourhood and found 400 Gradi opened a new shop in the area, what a nice surprise. The shop looks a bit dark from outside but after you walked in its all warm service.

We ordered the calamari for entree, the famous margarita pizza, seafood spaghetti, chip and a kale salad on the side.

The Calamari was slightly deep fried and the zucchini and eggplant on the bottom is such a good add on. Pizza is amazing as usual, the seafood spaghetti had a lot of seafood in it, good portion size! In all we had a great dinner there and will definitely recommend 400 Gradi Essendon!

Visit 400 Gradi for a weeknight and it was actually quite busy. We had the pizza and pasta and really liked it. The pasta was cooked to al dente perfection and the pizza base was really good. Loved the decor and interior inside.

Would you to be back to try out the other items on the menu

Really delicious, relatively authentic Italian foods. Very nice thin base, perfect chewy crusts. Pasta dishes very simple and quite small but very nice. Side of green beans wash delicious!
Service a bit slow, but considering they were very busy you understand, management tried to make up for slow wait staff service...
quite expensive, but no more so than most higher end Italian restaurants...

Came here for a birthday and was able to redeem the birthday deal. The manager was super friendly and attentive. The food was delicious, especially the thin crust wood fire pizza. Super family friendly and would intend to come back to try out other dishes on the menu.

We booked online for the 2 hour bottomless pizza and drinks deal at 6pm. There was some confusion when we arrived about whether the bottomless deal was available or if it was only for the 4pm sitting, but this was sorted and the venue manager kindly apologised for the mistake.

Onto the food - this deal is very good value. The margheritas come out very quickly - lovely thin pizza base and great tomato and mozzarella. We finished our first pizza and the second one appeared in a matter of minutes (thereafter they asked each time we finished if weā€™d like another). The service was very attentive and friendly, especially after the initial issue, and we felt right at home. The glasses of red wine were very generous and the Black Mule cocktail in particular delicious. This was a really nice experience, and I think weā€™ll be back!

Took advantage of the March unlimited margarita pizza and drinks special for $45. Have to say we were blown away with the value and quality of the food. Had a suspicion that maybe theyā€™d bring the food out slowly but it was quite the opposite. it was all timely and the staff were happy to watch us fill our faces. Looking at the menu during normal dining times itā€™s quite pricey but the food is really good so if you have the money to spend itā€™s probably worth it!

we come at gradi in essendon invited by a gropu of friends , we did not like the idea because reading some review made us worry about it.Ā 
as i only like good food and good services , and let me tell you guys , 400 Gradi could be the most authentic napoletan place outside Napoli. beside the pizza to be simply 100% verace ,the food is a refresh of the Mediterranean cuisine, fresh pasta made with squid ink was amazing , and the tiramisu MAMMA MIA... this place is like walking into a restaurant in Naples (i have been there many times )Ā  the manager was a crazy Napoletano , the pizzaiolo Vinceso was also a funny Napoletano , staff super friendly.Ā 
if you want to try the real Pizza Napoletana, made and served by real Napoletas , then there is no place in Melbourne better then 400 Gradi !!!

Hi have been at many restaurant that claim to do pizza in melbourne , and i reading some of the review regarding the pizza at Gradi made me come to the conclusion ,Ā  that there is still a lots of ignorance on how the pizza should be !!! people saying "minimal topping" ... "soggier base "....and other stupidity like this should be banned from ratting food and leave review !!! i had pizza at gradi , at Mozza bar , at circa 900 to name few and they all do the vera pizza napoletana !!! guys do not listen to review , especially from people that have ZERO traditions in food and culinary culture!!Ā 

Bravo Gradi always a pleasure to come and dine at your restaurants !!!

Specialā€¢I got one of the specials of the day! I had to get steak again. Since having the Tagliata Di Manzo last time was very nice I thought to try the steak special of the night. I didnā€™t expect the steak to be so big and on the bone as well! So that was really surprising, there was also sauce for the steak, mashed sweet potato and Beetroot relish. The sauce tasted Smokey and salty, very strong tasting, tasted very good with the steak. The mashed sweet potato was nice too! taste as expected. I found the beetroot relish very interesting, I thought Iā€™d hate it but it tasted sweet, the texture was like eating thick jelly. I think all the combinations are quite unique and worked really well with the steak. Overall Iā€™d recommend!!! If only I remembered the nameā€¦Ā  Ā  Ā 

Ā  I had to get the Tagliata Di Manzo Steakā€¦itā€™s a must if Iā€™m going to a nice restaurant. The char-grilled eye fillet was grilled to medium rare, wonderfully done! The meat was tender and easy to cut, the eye fillet was drizzled with a balsamic reduction and topped with Raspadura parmesan. The steak tasted kind of plain but eating the parmesan in-between bites actually added more flavour. I didnā€™t eat much of the rocket but mixed with the balsamic reduction it tasted quite nice. Overall itā€™s a filling dish even though it looks simple, I would recommend it to any meat lover.Ā  Ā Ā 

Ā The pizza Romana was absolutely delicious, the dough was so soft whilst the crust was crunchy. Itā€™s a simple pizza with only three ingredients, San Marzano tomato, Fior di latte cheese and Prosciutto Cotto. I like Prosciutto so this pizza really worked for my taste buds. I believe the pizza was drizzled with balsamic vinegar or some sort which I thought was going to taste sour but it added sweetness to the savory pizza. Overall, no negatives with the Romana pizza! Iā€™d advise anyone to try one of their pizzas because the quality of the pizzas is unbelievable you can taste how fresh it is! No pizza tops Gradi so far..

I organised a dinner for a large group the other night and were extremely happy with both the food and the service. I organised the whole dinner within a few days, and found that the staff were easy to help out.

We had the $45/person set menu and all of our guests were extremely pleased.

Our server, Sebastian, also made our night so memorable. He made sure we always had drinks and was always available when we needed him. He is one of the best servers we've had.

5/5 service and food, and we'll definitely return for our next dinner.

400 Gradi at Essendon has a good ambience, good food, although the place is slightly pricey. Friday evenings are busy. The staff is also good and enthusiastic. Being a vegan and glutenfree dodo I had trouble given that the place has limited vegan and Glutenfree options. Practically just one dish - Glutenfree vegan gnocchi and salad. Both the items were just ok but nothing spectacular.

I loveeeee Ragu and the pasta did not disappoint! It was so nice!! The lamb ragu just beautifully done. I didnā€™t know how I would feel with the peas there but it was fine! The peas didnā€™t have to be there as the main component of the dish shone through. I couldā€™ve had a little more pasta. You canā€™t go wrong with the chocolate gelato as well too finish with a side of moscato!

ā€˜400% tastyā€™

There really is a taste of Italy right here at Gradiā€™s.
Itā€™s been a while since Iā€™ve been and let me tell you, it was pure satisfaction all round.
We decided to have their Linguini Pescatore which was a combination of fresh mussels, clams, prawns, and scallops in white wine with a touch of napoli sauce. It tasted so fresh that that clams were talking to me!!!!
We had to try their famous award winning Pizzas and their Capricciosa delivered the goods as you can taste and smell the wood fire as it was cooking.
Together with their fresh ingredients and style of cooking itā€™s the reason theyā€™re successful at what they do.

And to top it off, we couldnā€™t resist their deserts on offer and opted for their Salted caramel peanut semifreddo, chocolate ganache and peanut brittle.
By this stage I was so full but managed to squeeze in their beautiful coffee to go with the scrumptious dessert.
Itā€™s definitely a place to sit back and enjoy the taste of Italy.

Gradi sets the bar for pasta quality and taste all around Melbourne and it isn't hard to see why. Having tried the Crown restaurant, we were eased to visit a more local option in Essendon. With service that attends to your needs from entry, you are made to feel like an appreciated guest the moment you sit down.

Today we ordered the Carnivora pizza, Mushroom pasta and bolognaise. The pizza was delicious, soft enough with the cheese and flavours oozing into your mouth, however it was the pasta that deserve recognition. Creamy, tasty, and simply close to perfection. We highly recommend the pasta here and it is definitely our favourite in Melbourne. Unique sauces and the way it's cooked simply are unmatched, definitely a favourite for us.

Highly recommended for a lovely date or night out. Amazing pasta, good pizza, great service and an overall memorable dining experience!

Came for an early weekday dinner and ordered the Capricciosa which was quite good. The prosciutto was tasty, tomato base was good and the crust was thin and chewy without being soggy in the middle. Service was quick and attentive. Pizzas are on the pricier side, but comparable to what you'd pay at the higher end pizza restaurants these days.

Came here for a friendā€™s farewell as sheā€™s moving interstate. I have been here a couple of times and this time around the good is still as good. They are known for the pizza, I think the owner won the best margarita pizza in Italy a few years back. So I ordered the Capricciosa pizza. The topping is reasonable, not generous but they are fresh. The dough is just right, not too thick and not too thin. They left a huge amount of crust which I cut off as I feel like itā€™s missing itā€™s topping. Some of my other friends had pasta, which I regretted not getting (maybe next time). They looked substantial and delicious. Will come back next time and try the pasta and maybe dessert too.

A great addition to the Essendon area is this pizza place. The original is in Brunswick and the essendon iteration is just as good. Traditional Italian pizzas being served here with delicious toppings. I can never go passed the Caserta because Iā€™m a sucker for prosciutto. They are thin base pizzas, so sometimes the centre is a bit soggy, but the flavours are delish. They also have gluten free pastas which are really good!

Came in for a late dinner and we managed to get a table straight away despite not having a reservation. We were quick to order however the food took a while to come. The waitress came to apologize and offered us complimentary breads while we were waiting as they had some issues with their boiler. Luckily the food were definitely worth the wait, our pasta were cooked to perfection and really flavoursome, the lamb dish was juicy and tender as well. What surprised us the most is their complimentary desserts at the end of our meal which we didn't expect at all. Their customer service is definitely one of the best!

Had a late dinner( slightly after 8pm)for 3 on a Thursday, we didn't have a booking but there were tables available. We were quick to order however the food took ages to come..I think it was close to 30minutes and we were quite frustrated waiting that long. The waitress then came with complimentary bread (should've came earlier!) and apologized for the long wait...apparently they had some techincal issues with the boiler.
The dishes came slightly after; we ordered the linguine, spaghetti and the lamb shoulder. Portions are good sized despite being on the pricier side. I had the lamb and the meat was super tender and yummy. My friends loved they pasta dishes too.
Food was super good despite the let down with the slow service, however we weren't expecting when they served us extra complimentary desserts after our meals (since they already given us the bread)...super surprised!
That definitely made our dining experience better since they took the extra initiative to express their apology. I'm glad that our meal ended on a sweet note :)

We got 3 pizzas; their classic Margherita, Suprema (pumpkin, rocket, pinenuts and goats cheese) and Ortolana (white sauce with capsicum, eggplant and zucchini). All 3 were amazing! We ate too much and only realised at the end that they offer to pack up your remaining pizza to take home! Great service! Love this place

italian food has always been one of my favourite cuisine and i was pretty stoked when my boyfriend brought me here for dinner!

we had to wait for several minutes as we didn't make a reservation but we were led to our table pretty quickly. i ordered a glass of red wine and we had a margherita pizza to share (i forgot to take a picture though because i was too excited to eat it ā˜¹). the pizza tasted pretty good and the crust was thin and crisp.

i ordered the pasta of the day that was recommended by the waiter, which was pasta with mushroom base topped with duck breast. the flavour of the pasta was very good and i liked that the sauce coated the pasta well. the duck breasts were tender and moist, and it paired really well with the pasta.

my boyfriend ordered the gigantoni al sugo d'agnello, which was short tube pasta with slow cooked lamb ragu. he enjoyed the pasta a lot. the lamb ragu was juicy and full of flavour, and it complements the pasta really well.

overall, we had a good time dining here and would definitely be back in the future!

Thursday dinner for 4. The restaurant looks simple and stylish. We ordered calamari fritti, capricciosa pizza, beetroot salad and mushroom risotto. The base of the thin pizza was a bit soggy for my liking. All other dishes were very nice. My favourite was the lightly battered calamari. The staff were very friendly and attentive. If you are price conscious then maybe look at other options. All in all, an enjoyable experience.

Gradi is good. Margherita was delightful - crispy and bubbly dough, creamy and delicious sauce, laden with basil (just the way I like it) and a good amount of mozzarella. For the price?.... I'm not too sure. I've had other traditional pizzas that rival Gradi. Certainly not a waste of anyone's time.

This place is our go-to for a dining out evening. Considering how busy they are, they do pretty well with customer service and getting out orders fast! Service is VERY friendly and attentive. Function room upstairs is a beautiful feature, as well as the zero gradi stall in the outdoor seating section. Beautiful interior design and very warm environment. The menu is very authentic and the food never disappoints! If only the menu expanded, they would be the top dogs! A few more pasta options and some more chicken on the menu and it would be a perfect score! Yes they are busy, so it is some-what noisy, but what busy restaurant isn't!? That is just the sound of success! I'd like anyone complaining about the waiting staff to be put in their shoes for one night and see if they could handle a shift with a restaurant as busy as this one!!
They do very well for themselves, and they'll just keep getting better at this rate!

Very happy. Love the location yes we had to walk due to the parking but a little walking doesn't hurt. Food was delicious and the waitress was lovely. The only complaint I had that when the waiter was serving hot beverage he did it with a baby under the tray that could have slipt out of his hands if she went backwards. We tried to tell him but he didn't get it. Other then that, thanks for a great night.

not sure why there are reviews that comment badly on the service, at least the place is giving young kids a job and from what I can see they're doing ok. Yeah, it's not perfect, but what is? anyway, 5 of us had a decent meal...I had the Capricciosa, delicious! not sure its worth $29, but it got scoffed down real fast..other 4 dined on pasta, risotto, goat and assorted desserts.

could probably do with a better beer list and some blinds for the afternoon sun..all in all, pleasantly surprised.

Went to the Crown location the day before with a friend and the Essendon branch the day after.
I ordered their famous margherita pizza and the lobster crab pasta to share. Both of which I loved. I finished the meal off with their gelato which were both delicious. Arguably the best in the Crown vicinity.
This meal left me in a food coma. Highly recommended to those who love Italian food. The Crown location is superb for a quiet romantic lunch whilst the Essendon location is great for families and friends catching up over a meal.

I came here for an impromptu dinner and was throughly satisfied by the time i left. It was a busy saturday night, around 8, I had made no booking but they were extremely accomodating and slotted me in after a short 10 minute wait. Heard good things about the pizza and was not disappointed. Thin base and crunchy crust and excellent toppings. However don't personally thing margherita lived up to all the hype - don't get me wrong, it was good but not as amazing as I thought it would be. Dessert was good - however the coffee in the tiramisu was extremely strong, too much for my liking. All in all a good night and would come back and recommend to friends :)

Some delicious food in a local location which suits us just fine. Having visited the other Gradi locations, we expected the same delicious taste and it did not disappoint. Well located in the back end of the Keilor Road food strip with ample parking available in the side streets sits 400 Gradi Essendon.

Other than ordering the Margherita Verace $22.0 which is always a crowd and international favourite, try out the Gnocchi Al Pomodoro $27.0 which has perfectly cooked little clouds of potato rolled in semolina or if your craving seafood - the Grigliata mista de pesce del giorno $45 which is a combination of mixed grilled seafood.

Service is spot on with friendly and attentive staff as one would require for the calibre of this establishment. Decor is set out similar to the other locations however this Essendon branch has its own flair to it tailored to the Essendon landscape. 400 Gradi Essendon will be much enjoyed by the locals from near and far for a while to come. Till next time, this is Our Foodie Find!
