I work very close by and on a night shift I go there a lot.  Pizza is always consistent, base is excellent, always heaps toppings and only 10 minutes to make.  This is my go to place for pizza in Melbourne. A must for anyone who loves pizza

Soprano’s offers casual Italian dining (or takeaway) in a lovely environment! Situated in Southbank, it’s perfect for dining alone or a quick bite. Soprano is a cosy little restaurant offering...

I had a wonderful dinner here ! This place brought me back to the good old days where I ordered pizza and pasta for movie nights on the couch. I truly could not remember the last time I had Italian food like this and it was such a special night for me . The staff were super friendly and helpful and the Soprano themed vibe really enhanced my experience.

I ordered the bruchetta which was actually on a garlic cheese pizza ( so good ) . The chicken and mushroom risotto and carbonara were also really creamy and full of flavor, I do wish I ordered a pasta with red sauce as the cream factor was border lining too much but honestly I really really just wanted a carbonara since I haven't eaten it for probably a year :(

We ended the night with a tiramisu and boy was it so gooood ! It had so much cream ( which is something I like ) and the cake was perfectly balanced with the coffee flavor. The chocolate on the side was playful and probably a little too much but I am not really one to complain when it comes to excessive chocolate

Overall a great dining experience. We ordered the antipasto platter which gave a taste of several cold meats,olives and sundried tomatoes.
We ordered the Fettuccine Amatriciana and Peperoni Pizza for our main meals. The pasta had an authentic italian flavour which i really appreciated being Italian myself. Pizza base wasn't too dense and cooked perfectly.
The tiramisu dessert was a fantastic end to our dinner.
Worth a try if you're looking for an italian,well priced restaurant in Melbourne CBD.

If you’re up for a quick bite in the city and pizza is your thing, check out Soprano’s in Southbank. With plenty of pizzas and pastas to choose from and all reasonably priced, you won’t walk away hungry!

We went for an antipasto starter which was a great sharing plate. Followed this with a Mexican pizza and their chicken and Mushroom creamy pasta. If you’ve still got room left try the chocolate mousse! Won’t disappoint!

I was intrigued to be invited to Sopranos as I lived opposite the restaurant for many years and on account of never being home only had takeaway from there once. Eating in was an interesting experience, I am out for dinner almost every night and have never seen a place so packed of a Monday! It was so full I couldn’t believe it and the waitress did a great job in spite of the numerous customers.
To start we ordered the fried calamari. This lacked seasoning in its entirety for me and I didn’t enjoy the dish. Luckily it was onwards and upwards from there as both main and dessert were superb.
We decided to share a pasta and a pizza for the second course; pesto gnocchi and the avocado chicken pizza. Both were absolutely delicious. Pesto can sometimes be too oily but this one was perfectly flavoursome and creamy. The pizza was old school style thick based yumminess with a generous topping of chicken, pineapple and avocado drizzled in bbq sauce. Very satisfying indeed.
Dessert wise the chocolate pizza was the obvious choice. This had a perfectly crispy base and was super decadent.
Conveniently located near crown casino it’s the perfect casual family friendly Italian meal

A trusty family-friendly pizza and pasta joint that is perfect for locals seeking a hearty midweek meal or workers nearby seeking a casual lunch. With a good range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, everyone will find the perfect thirst-quenching accompaniment to their generously-sized pizza, pasta or main meal. To start with, the Fried Calamari is surprisingly good, with stringy pieces of calamari encased in a thick, crunchy batter that can be dipped in the accompanying aioli/tartar sauce.

Pastas offer an impressive variety, with the type of pasta totally up to the customer to choose to go with any of the pasta sauces/fillings. Our choice of the Soprano Sausage with fettucine delivered tasty slices of sausage, however the napoli-based sauce for this pasta needed lots more flavour/seasoning.
The Pollo Funghi was our second pasta choice, with gnocchi, and tasted deliciously creamy with sufficient chicken, mushroom and spring onions throughout the sauce.

Pizzas range from traditional to gourmet, served atop a sufficiently thick-sized base that is not dissimilar to those at La Porchetta, but is a bit better than the franchise restaurants. The Angelo was one of the recommended choices by the staff, and they were right, though only suitable for those who enjoy something a little different, with pineapple on their pizza!

Dessert includes premade tiramisu and a Nutella pizza - go for the latter if you had to choose one, though a scooping of ice cream on the Nutella pizza would go down a treat if they are looking for any other suggestions.

A good Italian, family-friendly restaurant to visit if in the area and want something affordable and enjoyable.

A nice stroll just from the banks of the Yarra and the glistening lights of Crown Casino, Soprano’s is an affordable, family friendly and casual restaurant perfect for a night out or a family get together. With wide options for all different cravings, ranging from pastas, fish, steaks to a whole back panel just dedicated to pizzas, this Italian joint was a delightful way to spend our evening. There is an open kitchen where you can see all the freshly rolled pizza dough being heaped with delicious toppings and a fantastic array of wines to complement the dishes. I thoroughly enjoyed my house Sauv Blanc with its refreshing crispiness.

Tried the takeaway pizza here a few times and it is relatively ok for the price and quality. The Mexican pizza is pretty good but not a fan of the more expensive range .

We wanted to grab a quick bite to eat around our hotel and had a craving for pizza - Sopranos hit the spot! We went really early (as in, within the first half an hour of them opening for dinner) so it was empty when we arrived, which meant service was prompt. The pizza was really tasty and the medium size is enough for one person with a moderate appetite.

The menu photos on Zomato need to be updated - the traditional medium pizzas were actually $18 each, but that's still reasonable.

Popped in lastnight for dinner on my own, was looked after straight away by a nice young woman who recommended the pesto spaghetti, so I obliged and matched it with a glass of shiraz, enjoyed both thoroughly. Place was fairly quiet but steady (although takeaways seemed to be doing a roaring trade) and i got my food quickly. Enjoyed chatting to the waitress, she was very hospitable and friendly a country girl and helped me with my phone, dont see hospitality like that in some other places. Thanks sopranos i would come back

My wife and I love Sopranos. The service is second to none and the prices match.

I love the tandoori chicken pizza and tandoori chicken with rice and veggies. My wife loves the pasta and chilli calamari. 

We are always impressed by the attention to detail and customer focus of the whole team.

They do take always as well.

Initially ordered delivery twice and it was better than expected. It's no artisanal wood burning oven pizza, but much better than the cheap chains around the city. I also went once to eat in and was surprised to see a full dining room (I always pictured a take away pizza spot with no tables). I recommend the goat's cheese pizza, it was delicious.

Nice pizzas and quick delivery. Base was thin and crunchy and toppings were adequate. I generally prefer the gourmet style pizzas (think gradi), which this was not, but was definitely still nice and enjoyable.

Good quality every time. Have eaten here (take out/delivery) quite a few times over the last few years. The service isn't the friendliest, but im not looking for waiters and chefs to be my best friend. They are direct and to the point, exactly what i like and look for in restaurants or food shops. The time between making the order and the food arriving is always spot on, on a vary vary rare occasion an order has been over 30 mins. So most importantly their pizzas are their stand out options, especially the Tony Soprano, this large pizza is more than enough to satisfy two people. The pasta dishes on the other hand are average at best. lacking in about of meat and vegetables and the gravy and sauces are weak in flavour. Other worthy mentions on their menu are the potato chips ( not many places do a good potato chip delivery) and reasonably priced beers, which is alway welcome.

With living in Southbank, this pizza shop is for now the go to choice, have tried a number of other places, but im alway coming back to the mighty Tony Soprano!

A Hidden Gem. Sopranos is a great new find! Well, we knew it was there but hadn't been in. We WILL be returning. The service was good, the menu is comprehensive & the main thing - the food - excellent and well proportioned. The decor has been thoughtfully assembled and it was nice to have our own space in a smallish space. There is an excellent wine list. We both had meat dishes which could not be faulted. Looking forward to trying the pizza as well next time. Thank you gentlemen. :)

Everything was perfect. We are from Perth staying in Soutbank and just ordered about 7 dishes. It was ready within 20 minutes and everything was perfect from the food to the price to the service. We are devastated we found this on our last night and wish we had of gone here everyday as it was one of the best meals we've had in Melbourne! Highly recommend :)

Amazing service, great food, friendly atmosphere. I dined at Sopranos when on a school camp with 8 students with special needs and 2 staff members.
We were overwhelmed by the friendliness and generosity of the staff at Sopranos - particularly the manager.
The food was very reasonably priced and was delicious!! We tried the pizzas, pastas and main dishes - everything came out all at once (rare with such a large group) and was very tasty. Highly recommend :)

By Southbank standards - this is a good Italian. OK - to keep it real...the location (City Rd) is not necessarily inspiring (not sure what parking would be like), and it sits beside an IGA. But, before it looks like I am doing a hatchet job, I should point out that these guys make the best pizza in Southbank. Furthermore, amid a sea of wanna-be boutique Italian restaurants (Fatto, Tutto Bene, La Camera, etc) - this is the closest you'll come to decent sized portions, 'Italian as you expect it' pasta, with reasonably priced wine list.

Never had the desserts here so cannot comment.

Always get my pizzas delivered by these guys - very good pizzas, and really good value too.

Not bad at all!!. We went because it's local - despite all the poor reviews on here. I can say service was very good and the food fine for the price. This isn't fine dining... but for a local, casual "pasta and pizzeria" it was AOK. We'll be back. Like +1

Ok, but too salty. Went for a walk to find something for dinner when staying nearby and passed a guy in the street carrying a pizza from here, so thought I might give it a go.

Ordered an Angelo, and some garlic bread, and then headed next door to grab some beer from the IGA whilst waiting.
Pizza was ready quickly, and smelt good. Garlic bread was just a generic stick, probably from a shop, so wouldn't even bother ordering that again. Quite plain and boring.
Pizza was a little light on with toppings, but what was there was nice. Didn't find the peperoni hot, but did find the pizza quite salty, which gave an unpleasant feeling once finished eating. Quite a bit of greese on the box, suggesting that the oiliness was a bit over the top.

Overall ok, but nothing special.

SO MUCH BETTER!. I've been going to Sopranos for years, and there was a period of time when it really wasn't all that awesome in the service department. Nothing bad, just not amazing. Lately there has been something... I don't know what! But the place has a great vibe and there are smiles all round. I just ordered a Chicken Caesar salad. It's awesome and the best thing is I got far more chicken than expected, probably twice what I thought I would get. Delish. Love Angelo the owner, he sometimes seems a bit gruff, but he's a secret sweetheart. Overall - recommend.

Love their garlic prawns! The Friends Special pizza is great. For takeaway I also ordered an American style pizza. Description didn't say olives but they added olives. That's fine for me. Very generous with pizza toppings. Pls keep it that way.

What a pleasure to accidentally come across this prestigious pizzeria. Parking close by to go attend the football and decided get dinner pre game. Unfortunately! They were booked out and couldn't cater for a group of 6 at the last minute. Still worth asking if passing, otherwise I would highly recommend pre-booking. After the fantastic professional courteous service, we decided to order takeaway. Very busy with many also trying to try and get sit down service and also order takeaway. So uniquely set up with their seating for dining and also takeaway service. The pizza, garlic bread and hot chips were absolutely delicious. Definitely looking forward to coming here again real soon. Off street parking available and waiting time, even though immensely busy was very minimal. Thank you to all working there as it was a great start to a great night at the football and also seeing the sights of Melbourne.

We stayed at Adina apartments for the weekend, and found this Gem, a stone throw away (right next door) 🙏 we didn't have a reservation, however we were welcomed in regardless, and served promptly by a wonderfully mannered waitress. our food came out quick, and it was amazing, the servings were MASSIVE and the prices were very affordable. Have recommended this restaurant to all my friends, and will definitely be returning to try other dishs... We are very picky when it comes to Italian food, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ easy👌
