"I recently had the pleasure of indulging in the most heavenly tuna melt in town, and let me tell you, it completely made my day! The combination of perfectly melted cheese, flavorful tuna, and toasted bread was simply divine. But that's not all - the surprise side of chips that accompanied this delightful sandwich was the cherry on top. Crispy, seasoned to perfection, and just the right amount of saltiness, these chips took the entire meal to a whole new level of deliciousness. To add to the experience, they also served a cup of great coffee that perfectly complemented the flavors of the tuna melt. The rich aroma and smooth, energizing taste of the coffee enhanced the overall enjoyment of my meal. The friendly staff and cozy atmosphere of the restaurant added an extra touch of warmth to my visit. They were attentive, accommodating, and made me feel right at home. If you're on the hunt for the best tuna melt in town, look no further! This place has it all - exceptional taste, a surprise side of chips that will leave you wanting more, and a cup of great coffee to top it off. Trust me, this culinary gem is a must-try."

"My no.1 gelato shop in CBD undoubtedly. That day we had a big dinner before we ate the gelato. We ordered yogurt,avocado + lime and pistachio di bronte. When we had the first taste of yogurt,avocado + lime, the greasiness of dinner was immediately forgotten. We've never had such refreshing gelato. Next up was the second flavor, I thought bronte brought out the different layers of pistachios. Both let me want to eat again and again. That’s a standard of good gelato. And it truly brings this trip to a perfect end! It's 12:30 AM and I'm starting to crave it again."

"Always my favorite pistachio ice cream! 1st time I started with salted caramel. It's really nice one but after I tried the pistachio (the di bronte) I never changed my mind again."

"One of the best gelato places in Melbourne CBD Situated in front of the Spring Street Grocer - a cute artisanal grocery shop across the Parliament. Went there after dinner and we had the best gelato here. Pistachio di Bronte $6.5 (1 scoop) The pistachio was superb. Nutty, creamy, and not too sweet. I personally like the pistachio flavour here the most compared to the other gelateria. There are around 14 variations of classic flavours and weekly flavours to choose from. I recommend you all to swing by after dinner and you will be hooked!"
