Tasty Italian, they offer gluten free pasta too. Food quality was high and service attentive. Recommend you make a booking as this restaurant is busy.

Highly recommend. We forgot to make a booking but we got to have a table allocated for a set amount of time. Food was delicious and cocktails were great - we asked the bartender to make whatever he wanted and were pleasantly surprised each time.

I had the delight of dining with TEC for my birthday celebration this week. Everything from our greeting at the entrance to seating to the overall hospitality was fantastic. It's such a breath of fresh air to see people so passionate about hospitality and the level of attention given to the dining experience, really enjoyed the night.

If you're looking for a touch of Italy in the heart of Melbourne then look no further! Bellissimo! It was an absolute pleasure to dine in at thirty eight chairs, from the mood lighting to the Italian waiters it was just pure delight.
