Cicciolina - Reserva de mesa

Its been a few years since ive had the pleasure of dining in one of my top 5 restaurants in Melbourne, and may i say, how pleasant it was to not be let down by this fine establishment. As i live interstate and was catching up with old and dear friends who reside in St Kilda, Cicciolinas was a perfect choice. I remembered how great the Blue Swimmer crab Souffle was....and was so enthusiastic in sharing my memories of it, 5 out of 6 of us ordered it. It was BETTER than i remembered it, light, fluffy and full of flavour, floating on a light creamy sayce...my only complaint was i could have eaten 3x the size. For my main i had an entree special. Pork ravioli with ricotta and cruspy sage leaves.....

Been to Cicciolina several times . Food is generally of high standard as it was on this occasion . But it was a very unpleasant experience . They don't take bookings for dinner . So you have to take pot luck on getting a table . The seating is very cramped and there is not enough space for the staff to get around the tables . It only took less than 1 minute until the waiter bumped into the back of my chair which sent me bent over the table . No sorry , nothing . This happened again and again . On one occasion the blond waiter stood on my foot . Still nothing . Then whilst removing plates she elbowed me in the arm . She dropped the plate which smashed . Still no sorry not a mummer . I could g...

With the family I spent my mums birthday here and I was absolutely blown away by the level of service and quality of the food. From homemade pasta, delicate seafood and meat carefully matched with the finest wines. Let everything on the menu tempt your taste buds and surprise you with well rounded decadent tastes that reflect a modern palette with traditional Italian flavours.Truly a hidden gem as i have walked hundreds of times up and down Ackland street and only found it by a friends recommendation. Now I pass on my recommendation so people can enjoy such a great experience as my own.

A family member recommended Cicciolina so we figured it couldn't be too bad. Unfortunately we didn't enjoy it, we came with 6 adults and 1 child and the placed us at a table right near the kitchen and bar area and placed the high chair in a walk way so everyone kept bumping into our daughter making her very annoyed. The food was rather good and the portions were decent but the staff on the day weren't all that helpful or friendly so we wouldn't go back again Reserva una mesa ahora

Ate here on New Year's Eve as a group of eight. The meal was very good with two choices for each course, and a glass of quality sparkling per person. Really enjoyed my meal. Service very friendly and attentive. Recommended.

Absolutely the best Italian for lunch in St Kilda. The spaghetti Vongole and blue swimmer crab soufflé are to die for. The restaurant is small and can feel cramped when full, but its worth it for the food and service

Had lunch at Cicciolina and it lived up to expectations. We had hapuka cooked with mussels and couscous. It was delicious. My husband had venison which was very tender.

Cicciolina has been around for ages. It serves fine dining with prices to match. Good place to catch up with fiends or take mum for lunch Reserva una mesa ahora

Great food and location. If you feel like a more relaxed setting, go to the back bar of the restaurant. Worth a visit.
