Provincial is always a good consistent choice for European pub fare. Dishes always have an interesting twist, but doesn't veer too far from the original.
Bouillabaisse was lovely, rich, generous flavours. The boys had the fish selections both were cooked to description.

Would go there with friends and family to relax, eat, drink and feels like home because of the great staff that care about you not just as a number.

It's really interesting to see mixed reviews on this place. It is in my opinion one of the top 5 pizzerias in Melbourne. They stick to traditional Italian pizza with a thin base and minimal but fresh ingredients. If you're looking for huge toppings and thick bases piled with cheese, give the place a miss. If you're after a gourmet pizza D.O.C's the place for you! Prosciutto pizza with chilli oil, wow!

The best 'pizza shop' pizza in the area. The pizza is decent value and service is generally quick. However, avoid the gnocchi if you're not keen on the supermarket fare.

Unfortunately, seems to have changed hands, bruschetta base charcoal and inedible, we were placed next to busy toilet/kitchen door exit, asked to be moved in 1/2 empty restaurant and told not possible being fully booked, it remained 1/2 empty whilst we were there.?

Requested risotto from menu, told not possible on a Saturday night to prepare. Poor service, only a hint if lamb ragu sauce in pappardelle and inadequate serving size. Don't waste your time or money.

This is the last place left from the good old times, personal service and a lot of love in to what they do. It is enough for me to walk in and the owner already makes my pizza without me ordering. If you like old school service and looks it is Mergs for sure!

Went to Boathouse last week with my friend who lives in that area. She said she goes there all the time and really likes it. We spent a nice afternoon catching up. Food was yummie. Our waitress was super sweet.

Pizzas are good and some of the other items on the menu are also very good, not carlton style pizza but not the crap you get at others with too much toppings, great friendly service.

Stopped in here before the footy. Simple menu of pizzas and share plates but was perfect for what we were after. Very tasty pizzas and good selection of drinks. Was very noisy inside but have to expect that especially when the football is on. Good spot.

This place used to be great but it recently changed hands and the new owners are very rude. We ordered take away pizzas and they were all extremely burnt underneath, as in completely charcoaled and inedible. Also, one of the toppings was not what we ordered. I rang them to complain and they hung up on me twice. We didn't have time to order new pizzas, but I went back to the restaurant to show them the burnt pizza, hoping they would offer a refund, but they refused. They said if I didn't like it I should go to Domino's across the road. I tried to argue with them but their English was not that good. After spending $50 on pizzas that we couldn't eat, I managed to get only $10 back.

Given the location, when friends suggested we eat here, we had visions of a pizza establishment. But we were pleasantly surprised because it's much more than this. My gnocchi was excellent, and I'm told the other pasta dishes were good, too. The service was friendly and efficient, and the prices reasonable.

Having been to Monta Verde a couple of times for lunch I think it is one of the best kept secrets in the area. Great food, generous sizings, affordable prices and fantastic service. It has been quite been I was there and I hope this improves for them as they are doing all the right things for their customers.

Never been in a place with such rude, unpleasant and grumpy staff! I asked for a latte, not world peace.

Normally the food is Fantastic, and I had recommended it to a few mates that had the same feelings, last night I didn't have the same experience and called the place just to register my concern and to ensure no one else had to have a sleepless night. The man that answer the phone (a mature fellow) needs a few lessons in customer service and learn to listen! I was the one that hadn't had much sleep, due to lack of sleep because I was ill.

Best food, best ambience, best service and definitely best value. The staff are so sweet and the food was delicious. Carlos and Roy the owners definitely know how to run a restaurant. I give 10/10 recommendation.

Whenever in town I find it a must to head up to Lygon St and experience the entertainment of restauranters selling their food to passers-by and offering deals to suck people in. I would be lying if I said I hadn't been hooked in by a bottle of very cheap wine or a free entree before only to experience some pretty average meals. In fact I love taking anyone new to Melbourne there to get a first hand view of it all.

After reading many pleasant reviews on this site, I decided to take the guess work out of play and book in.

Staff were pleasant and relatively prompt but they appeared very busy so not much in the way of warmth. We were a table of two squeezed in next to a table of approx 15 to 20 young people celebrating a birthday. It was pretty loud as you would imagine so that deterred from the experience a bit but that's just the way the cookie crumbles.

Food wise - Not bad. Portion sizes are large. We had arancini balls and buffalo wings as shared starters and I was starting to feel the pinch after them. Mains we had the gnocchi with beef ragout and the home made meatballs with angel hair pasta. I enjoyed them but certainly no wow factor.

Great place for a casual meal with some terrific wines and very reasonably priced. Service was excellent and you could almost imagine you are tucked away in any Italian city. Most highly recommended.
