Best Known For

Linguine with prawns, housemade basil pesto, cherry tomatoes, capers and rocket.

For a modern take on an authentic Italian food experience head to Pesto’s Ristorante Italiano on Carlisle Street in St Kilda. Expect a warm and inviting ambience of dark wood table settings, recycled timber flooring and moody lighting, creating an ideal vibe for lingering over a memorable meal with family and friends, or your special someone. Say grazie to antipasto choices like pineapple-scored calamari with lemon and dill mayo, or ricotta-filled zucchini flowers, Parmesan, honey dressing and lemon mayo; before pasta plates of cappelletti stuffed with braised duck and porcini mushrooms, with tomato sugo, Parmesan and basil extract. Perhaps veal wrapped in prosciutto, pan-fried in sage butter, entices, served with parsley mash, pan sauce and Dutch carrots, enjoyed with a glass of Shiraz.
