Overall, The Italian Chef in Melbourne received mixed reviews from customers. Some were disappointed with dishes like the fritto misto and scallopina agli asparagi, commenting on the overwhelming flavors and unbalanced sauces. However, others enjoyed the fresh, well-cooked pizzas, pastas, and salads, as well as the accommodating staff who ensured a pleasant dining experience for large groups or families, including those with elderly members or young children. The variety of salads, thin-crust pizzas, and well-priced wines were highlighted as positives, although some felt that the ambiance could be improved by adjusting the music and lighting. Despite differing opinions, the general consensus is that The Italian Chef offers a decent Italian dining experience in Melbourne, Italian Chef typically has an average rating of 4.5.
