started off my birthday yesterday by eating a beautiful ham and tomato omlette! i come to SI all the time for coffee but never eaten, and the omlette was to die for! they are so generous in the size and was so filling!!! the staff are always beautiful and i enjoyed my time there!
Love this place. It’s a local and very Italian cafe with deli items and real authenticity. The owner makes a mean coffee that I come back for all the time.
Walking into this cafe this morning I thought I was back in Italy. Everyone including the customers are speaking Italian.
This amazingly good Italian cafe in Templestowe was a find!! The service was lovely and the coffee perfect!! Happy Friday hahaha
I had a piccolo latte which was spot on, good froth, strong and excellent flavour. Yummm lol
I didn't have time to eat but I'm coming back to try some of their food as they have a basic menu and a range of slices and rolls etc which look delish.
Happy days haha
Yum. They made the chicken salad with chili for me and it was delicious. The coffee was brilliant. Best coffee I've had for a long time. A very enjoyable way to spend lunchtime.
I think the best coffee in the area. Yet to be disappointed. I've never tried the food , but coffee is smooth , milk is perfectly done , presentation ✅
More than just a good coffee ....
Yeap, they do use the legendary Steffano Romeo (ex-Caffe Romeo, Greythorn) coffee beans for their coffee, so it's good, La Marzocco also in the house, now is just the man behind the gun, the Barista.
You can't go wrong with their food too.
A little renovation inside, moved the bench slightly to the back, it does change the feel of the front area, roomier, just need some stools there.
Enjoy.
Excellent coffee ! Very authentic Italian feel. But overpriced !
Even if the service is bad (which it's not), WHO CARES!! As long as I get a good coffee and some rays then I'm happy! Coffee is rich with flavours and never over extracted. :)
Great!. I really enjoy coming to this local cafe. It has a relaxed vibe and the muesli with fresh fruit is delicious and keeps me coming back!
Food, service and coffee We're top of the line!!! My new Sunday morning destination for brunch and the desserts are a must. Don't know how the top comments are so far from the satisfied, it's amazing and so close to home.
Very good service. The service is amazing, food is spectacular.
Fresh and delicious breakfast! I will be back!
Brekky is nice I have never been disappointed with my brekky or coffee. Service isn't amazing however because I like the coffe and brekky I tend to go back. A lot of the staff are Italians and can't speak English properly which is why people are hating the staff. However I have to say nice food.
Other Reviews could not be further from the truth,Great Food and and atmosphere
TRUE italian food the only one in the area

It's my most favourite place to go before talking a walk. I took most of my friends there and all were happy. Coffee is really good and staff are super nice. 😊☕
Definitely try breaki burger
Dropped on at this cafe on way to Yarra Valley from Melbourne.
It is located on convenient place, and we got good food!
Great coffee amazing food and friendly staff 👍It’s my family favorite place !
The coffee is consistently good here.
Food options are limited but always fresh and tasty.
Real score 3.7.
The cafe looks pretty good. It’s presented in a good modern style. The coffee here was unexpectedly exceptional. Dark, rich and luscious. It’s just as you’d want a strong coffee to be. It was delicious. And, surprisingly, it was better coffee than that of its feted nearby neighbour a bit down the road, Down the Rabbit Hole. The menu looked good here as well. Someone’s good on descriptions. I started salivating on reading a couple of things listed on the menu. The table water wasn’t cold though. A small thing, granted, but one that matters to me. Chilling table water shows care and class I reckon. And it was beautifully chilled at the Rabbit place. Service was speedy, efficient and very polite at Si. It seemed like a really good place and well worth a return visit.

A great cafe for breakfast or lunch. Plenty of parking and worth popping in for great food and great service. Recently renovated and a name change provides a modern feel with polished concrete floor and plenty of seating inside and out. A great choice of donuts and muffins for the morning tea. Highly recommend.
