Had the gnocchi carbonara with chicken and was not disappointed. Huge serving and very tasty. Nice fresh cooked pasta place with lots of variety
One of my favourite places to hang out on Sundays. There’s not usually a lot of customers when I visit but sometimes I like to go to a place to chill with friends where there are not too many people. I do see many takeaway drivers coming to pick up orders though.
I love the spaghetti bolognese. The plate looks shallow but there’s quite a lot inside. Definitely bang for your buck!

Etto has always been my go-to when I'm in the area for delicious and filling Italian food, and what really impress me is that it has always been consistent throughout.
I don't think there's a time when I have not ordered the black truffle and salami sauce, and mix and match it with different type of pasta. The piquant and funky aroma and taste of the truffle, paired with the savoury and spicy kick from the salami is absolutely stunning.
Recently I tried the bacon and leek macaroni and cheese and I may have a new favourite. So cheesy, so rich and definitely not shy on flavours.
The pizza and garlic bread are a pleasure to eat too, but are no match for the pasta here. The pasta, on the majority of occasion that I have been here, are cooked to perfection so I'm definitely sticking with them always.
This place is quite small and can get very busy, but the wait times have always been reasonable. Street pasta really describe Etto perfectly - good value for money, delicious and fuss-free feed for all.
This place is not very fancy. There are only few sitting tables. But this place is very busy for takeaways and delivery. There were back to back delivery pickups. They have plenty of options to mix and match with pasta sauces. We ordered garlic bread and pesto Gnochi. Food was really good and soft on the pocket too.
I had the papardelle with bolognese ragu. Absolutely delicious! Food was served quickly and piping hot. Will definitely return for a pasta fix
Great food and service, was fast and price is reasonable, their staff is very friendly, tasty pasta, convenient location next to coles I will come back again

Pretty nice pasta here with the ability to mix and match sauces and pasta. Their pasta is done better than other Italian places like some of the ones on Lygon street, but I've never found it to be mind-blowing. That said, part of the reason may be that I usually do takeaways or deliveries so that naturally affects the texture of the pasta.
The ingredients used are pretty nice and more on the 'higher-end' side of things like truffle and so on, but I don't find the ingredients particularly generous for their asking prices. If you're a fan of pappardelle, this is one of the few places I've seen that include that as one of the pastas you can mix and match with. The pizzas are also quite flavourful but again I find them less than generous with their topping ingredients. Some would argue that's how traditional Italian pizza is served, but I say the cost of the toppings should inform the cost of the dish.
Overall, in my opinion slightly low of the value for money side of things, but it can be a good place to try as an alternative to fancier Italian places that are costlier, especially if you dine in.
Absolutely love this style of pasta joint where you basically build the pasta you want. Went with the fettuccine basil pesto with a dash of cream and added chicken. Cooked to order it was so fresh and yum, came out straight away and the people working there very friendly. Only improvement could be serve it with a slice of bread for moppage.
Don't think I'll be going anywhere else when I'm craving fresh made pasta. Was an entirely different experience. Do not underestimate this place, it may be a fast food Italian pasta bar, but it will amaze you. Staff were friendly. Safe to say, I feel like I've been living under a rock, until I ate pasta from here.
No exaggeration, you just need to try it for yourself
Was craving some Italian foods and while browsing through Zomato I found this little beauty here. Decided to check it out because of the high rating and was not disappointed!
Ordered the Mushroom&Feta pizza and the Black Truffle and Salami pasta with extra mushroom - damn man! Never thought quick pasta would taste great but this store definitely changed my mind. Everything blended and tasted really good! Relatively cheap and the portion was huge! Walked away with full bellies - LOVE!
One of the best for a quick casual pasta feed. Hasn’t changed much since I first came here in 2013, except prices have gone up a little (still very affordable). Fast service, lots of variety, and pasta made in the store. Not much seating though, can be tough finding a table on a busy day. The portions are quite generous - the carbonara was more than enough for me to skip dinner that same evening!
friend of mine wanted pasta for dinner, but the one in the city are closed, so we came to south melbourne’s outlet.
there is no pizza today which is a shame, but the aglio olio tasted good, the portion was pretty amazing, carbonara taste nice.
those noodle cooked perfectly, there is some texture. outdoor sitting was nice, perfect day for it
yum!
ordered via uber eats
- smokey bacon and persian feta
- salami and olive pizza
- carbonara
each dish was a hit - we were so eager to eat the carbonara we completely missed the reheat instructions!! still really good tho. ate it before we could get a pic 😝
Fantastic service and fantastic pasta. The matriciana sauce was perfect spice with fettuccini pasta. Spinach and ricotta ravioli with bolognese sauce was very flavoursome. Will order again soon!
Absolutely pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food and service here! It appears more like a "cookie cutter" store however the food was prepared to perfection. Didn't get a chance to finish it all as we ran out of time, but will definitely be back!!!
