With all the eateries in Lygon St Mercadante is always busy. The food the service and the prices are great. Even on short notice they always manage to seat us. Staff are always friendly and the owner always has a trick up his sleeve.

This is hands down our favourite restaurant in Melbourne. The food is delicious, the service is friendly and well, let's just say....hilarious. Anyone who has been will know what I mean. The kids love the fact they can draw on the table cloths. Really family friendly and attentive. Highly recommended!!

I dined alone here on a Wednesday night and enjoyed the food. Obviously a lone diner is not as welcome as a group, but I was accommodated, served quickly and enjoyed the veal dish. There were large groups seated around me and they were enjoying themselves, adding to the sense of managed but lively "chaos". The waiters spent time ensuring... More

I gotta say chaos gives this place its atmosphere but this time unlike all other times, things were orderly, the waiters had uniforms. service was fast, fancy plates,... More

Famous for their chocolate pizza which is basically pizza dough drizzled over by chocolate (suspect its Nutella). Nevertheless, it was yummy!! Tried their pizza and pasta dishes, it was good. Place was busy but staff try their best to give you equal attention. We dont have to wait too long for food.
