Mamma can’t help but get animated when talking about Tiamo, a true Melbourne institution she’s been visiting since childhood. The menu features delicious homemade pasta—from rigatoni and spaghetti to lasagna and Little Miss 8’s favourite, Gnocchi Bolognese—with half sizes available for little ones. Woodfired pizzas offer Italian classics alongside bigger plate options, perfect for sharing. The lively atmosphere, complete with Tarantella music, transports families straight to Italy, while the friendly staff provide an authentic European experience. With indoor and outdoor seating available, it can get busy, so Mamma recommends booking ahead.
