Restaurant / il Teatro VIP

Offering the highest quality steaks, expertly prepared, and vino for superlative-worthy wines is our interpretation and celebration of the classic steakhouse coupled with signature Italian style. Against the magnificent, almost-iconic backdrop of many of Melbourne’s, most famous buildings, monuments and theaters. Locanda’s dramatic design (the ceilings soar, the surfaces are Italian marble & stone, the furniture's contemporary design elements) instantly sets a luxurious, exciting tone. 

The menu features an exclusive brand of organic, super-prime beef overseen by Chef Francesco Trucco who oversees the menu that was designed, including the steaks, each rubbed with sea salt, black pepper and fresh rosemary. Additionally, LOCANDA features organic veal from XXX Farms, New Zealand lamb, Heritage Foods pork, handmade pastas, classic antipasti, and side dishes based on Neopolitan street food. The international, comprehensive wine list pairs perfectly with the bold, delicious dishes. 

Using only the best quality beef, superior ingredients, and a global wine selection enables Locanda Italian Steakhouse to easily execute our food and drink philosophy—let the ingredients shine and speak for themselves. In two capital cities where flesh, flash and extravagance flourish, Locanda ‘s smartly designed menu offers a balance that's both familiar and sophisticated. Most importantly, Locanda is totally, wonderfully Italianissimo.
