Yes, the name can be a little bit misleading for an Italian joint ... but always a joy to know what you gonna get every-time we dined ...
Fantastic smiles and service from Sandor and the team at Ferdinand.
Awesome alfresco dining area at the back for our group of 20 with heater ON ... bloody Covid-19
Pizzas from those awesome Florence boys and their wood-fired oven.
Good and reasonably priced bottled of wines.
And always an atmosphere ...
Gratzie mille ... we are there every month without fail, except during Covid-19 :-)
Best food and best customer service! Favourite place to eat 😘
This is a stunning restaurant, is the perfect place for some good Italian food. They have a delicious Italian menu from pasta, pizza or fresh antipasto! This is such a cute little venue and we loved sipping on Aperol Spritz outside on a warm summers day, and enjoy just tasty food!
Came here for a Baptism and the food was delicious. I had gnocchi Ragu and shared a pizza. Service is also friendly
We recently dropped in for a Wednesday night Impromptu dinner. We decided to try a red wine on the menu that was unfamiliar. It was pretty good 👌. The gnocchi special of the day was nothing special. But the porcini pizza with truffle oil and prosciutto was AWESOME! We can’t stop talking about it. We will be back this week for more Ferdinand Pizza! Yum! Friendly service. Fair prices. Happy.
Opposite a tram stop and Westgarth cinema also - which is very handy.

A great pizza joint.
The service was brilliant and the food was delicious. The Porcini pizza was seriously amazing! For those needing gluten free or vegan options they had a bunch.
They were out of a couple of things on the menu like the Polenta chips which was a bit disappointing and the price of pizza was a bit on the high side but overall a great experience and will be back again!
Nice little restaurant in west Garth shopping strip. Started with gnocchi special which was homemade and delicious, graduated to a prawn pizza and margarita pizza , have to say I think I preferred margarita as prawn base was a little crunchy for me without a sauce, my bad I didn’t read properly. Staff friendly and white choc panacotta was yum. Would of probably gone 4.5/5 .
Beautiful experience at Ferdinand. We visited here on Tuesday night without reservations but the staff was kindly and quickly arranged a table for us. Had
- MULIGNANA add salami ☆☆☆☆☆
- RAVIOLI ☆☆☆☆☆
- FENNEL salad ☆☆☆☆
- PANNA COTTA ☆☆☆☆
Delicious pizza and pasta, attentive and friendly service and cozy atmosphere. I would definitely rate 5 stars.
Gnocchi is amazing, get it every time I go. And service is great, so glad this is local to me. The owner is a real people person who seems really passionate about the place.

We were greeted on arrival by not only the smiling, friendly staff but also a fabulous aroma of freshly baked bread and garlic! The Menu at Ferdinand has a great range of delicious, hand made, wood fired pizzas, home made pastas, antipasto and salads with both vegan and gluten free options. The restaurant is both licenced and BYO and they have a good range of cocktails along with a great wine list featuring both Australian and Italian wines.
We indulged in a feast of pasta, pizza and gnocci, rounded off with dessert. The pizzas are light and fresh with good quality ingredients that make them very easy to eat! I loved the Sotto Bosco with vegan fior di latte, roasted mushrooms and artichokes. The Porcini was another fave with mozzarella, gorgonzola, porcini, wood fire roasted button mushrooms, truffle oil and parsley. I also loved the Zucca with a sweet pumpkin puree, mozzarella, caramelized onions, taleggio and rocket.
We tried the house made Spaghetti Marinara which is infused with saffron and has a deliciously firm texture - mixed seafood, toasted bread crumbs and wild fennel.
Desserts are rich and sweet and the tiramisu was fluffy and rich and just big enough to leave you not needing to order a second one :)
They also nail a mean nutella pizza with ice cream - with a vegan version available - and they don't scrimp on the good stuff!!
Thanks so much for inviting us down guys!

2 friends and I just had a wonderful experience at Ferdinand’s pizza restaurant in Northcote.
The owner warmly welcomed us. Drinks were served immediately, the menu was discussed and when the food was served it met all of our expectations. I highly recommend Ferdinand’s for the food and their excellent, welcoming service.

Excellent. Pizzas have a perfect base and were so easy to eat. Partner had a very nice fettuccini marinara. Excellent service. Great atmosphere.
Amazing food, amazing customer service!! The Lamb Gnocchi and pepperoni pizza are highly recommended. If you like your food spicy (as most Indians seem to) ask them for chilli oil - that'll really getcha! Would definitely go back again and again.
Great food and service. Hayden the waiter is very attentive and fantastic. Delicious food and cosy restaurant! Highly recommend.
I tried this place today using the EatClub app, the customer service was really really good! Warm and welcoming. Refreshing for nowadays! I ordered a shiraz and a pasta dish which were delicious. Will definitely be back here again. Thankyou!
Delicious pizza and excellent service. Our waiter Hayden was wonderful!
Nice pizza, good size easily shares 2. Good flavours I loves the 4 cheese and and the prosciutto one. The wine is nice as well. We went there on a Thursday and was busy, better to book a table!
