It was a great place to eat for Christmas lunch. We arrived about 45 minutes early and they accommodated us by getting a table for us straight away. Even though the menu was limited, it was very good for choice. The food was cooked beautifully and the staff were very attentive. The menu pricing was reasonable for a Christmas Day. I would highly recommend this restaurant and we will be going again in the new year.

beautiful location overlooking the Yarra. Food was overpriced for what you get. Teatro signature bread , $15, just a giant puffed up flat bread. Veal Scallopini with rocket and parmesan ( $38 ) 3 small pieces of veal , a handful of rocket and a teaspoon of grated parmesan. Nothing special. Service was slow, but they were very busy.

4 of us enjoyed a lovely dinner at Teatro. Our main meals, entree foccacia and tiramusu for dessert were fabulous. All staff were helpful and friendly but our waiter was exceptional. He made a great dining experience even better. Look forward to dining there again when next in the city. A perfect restaurant to dine at before attending a show at the arts centre. Highly recommend.
