It's my favorite vegan restaurant in Melbourne💘 - Edit
It is a chic brick building with a very stylish interior. I don't think you can go wrong no matter where you sit, including the seats in front of you.
Read moreI've been there a few times and the service and food are always great.
Pappardelle Funghi e Tartufo is the best pasta I've ever had💮
I would like to try other dishes, but I definitely want to eat this pasta, but the portions are so large that it's difficult to try other dishes. 😂
This is one of my favorite places to visit in Melbourne.

Best Italian for Vegans - Edit
I went for my second time recently and the standard is still just as high as last year. Extensive (yet not overwhelming) menu, friendly and efficient service and super delicious food. The pumpkin ravioli was the best ravioli I’ve had. Great ambience, clean etc. Slightly expensive but worth it for the quality of food, portion size and service from staff. Can’t wait to visit again next year and try another dish.

Excellent Italian vegan - Edit
All plant based Italian restaurant. You need to eat here, bring your friends, great vegan food and wine. Even whiskey/tequila sour cocktails with aquafaba foam.
Read moreBack for our second visit. Amazing. The Pappardelle Funghi e Tartufo is fantastic. There will be many more nights here.

Pros: Almost can’t believe the ‘Calamari’ is plant based, Eggplant tagliatelle dish, and cheesecake and panacotta desserts 👍
Cons: Pumpkin purée in gnocchi dish lacked flavour
Tiggy
Have to disagree on the calamari and panna cotta. The other dishes look delicious though.

@Tiggy disagree based on photos? I’m sure this review was my opinion of the restaurant.

It looks like Tiggy reviewed this restaurant back in December 2021 when it first opened, commenting on both the calamari and panna cotta then (so opinion not based on photos)...maybe those dishes are better now? Great to see a fully vegan restaurant being well supported.

The quality of this meal was unbelievable-the care that goes into it is so obvious. The onions are so delicate & the flavours so balanced!

Great place - Edit
Had a wonderful delicious dinner. Located in a pedestrian area with lots of restaurants. We had a nice outside table. Started with the calamari and then Pappardelle Funghi e Tartufo finishing with tiramisu and a cup of coffee. Service was great. A good experience.

Fancy and worth it - Edit
The food is sublime, service professional and it is a true fine dining experience. We normally opt for much simpler places to eat, but F&T is out of this world and totally worth it for a special occasion. We chose the pasta options, so can’t comment on the mock fish etc. the Tiramisu was delicious too
Read morePros: Flavour, Great selection, Service/setting
Cons: Nothing really

A bit flash for me - Edit
I had to remind myself of some restaurant etiquette here because I don’t really have any! Wasn’t expecting it to be nearly as fancy as it was.
Read moreWe got some pasta olives and a few glasses of vino and it was all amazing. Particularly the dish that shares the name of the restaurant, Fungi E tartufo, now that was special, some of the best vegan mushroom pasta I’ve ever had, and I’ve had some good vegan mushroom pasta.
Would come back, when I’ve got a higher paying job!
Pros: Excellent service, Fantastic dishes, Great location
Cons: Very expensive

Superb Vegan Fine Dining - Edit
I took a non vegan friend to Funghi for a special birthday.
Read moreI found the service to be attentive, professional and friendly without being overbearing.
The menu was extensive, both plant based meat/fish and wholefood options. I am not a fan of plant based meats, but good to see it available to those who do enjoy. There were plenty of choices for me, even given this.
The tortellini, eggplant I had was delicious, well presented and very filling.
This is a special place and i was delighted to find a fine dining, fully vegan restaurant.
Pros: Wide choice of vegan meals, Atmosphere and service, Size of meal

Okay - Edit
I'm not sure if this is just the night that we attended, but my experience here wasn't great. I was in a group of 4, and we were seated right near a door with people coming and going every two seconds. The service wasn't great and we kept needing to flag down people, and the food was okay but not amazing for the price. Based on the other reviews though I'm hoping it was a one off. I would come back again because they're a vegan venue which is amazing.

Special place - Edit
Great place to have a special meal. My daughter had the eggplant pasta and really enjoyed it. I had the lasagna which was a little disappointing. Predominantly pasta with sauce. Nothing really between layers. I still enjoyed the evening and the mushroom arancine were delicious.

Absolutely delicious - Edit
4.5 because it was quite pricey, thankfully I was leeching off of someone else 🤑
Read moreThe calamari was absolutely amazing. I kept munching on that for real. The carbonara, lasagna, pumpkin ravioli were so fricking good.
If I had my own law firm and made bank I'd come here everyday to eat dinner.

Disappointed - Edit
I was so excited to try this place after seeing all the reviews. However we were so disappointed to find everything was flavourless and way overpriced. $20 for a carpaccio that consisted of 5 slices of plantitude salami, half a bag of rocket and some cherry tomatoes. For that price I would've expected something that i cant get from the supermarket. I literally could've thrown that together at home for less. The carbonara was inedible. The truffle pasta was okay, but I attribute that to the truffle. I'm still perplexed how the pasta dishes were $30 each when they contained mockmeats from the supermarket. Just had zero effort or creativity. Service wasn't great either. Really disappointed.

Yes I was disappointed and unimpressed to the point of disbelief last time I came here. I’ll need a very good reason to return.

Delicious food, upmarket setting - Edit
I went for lunch and the place was quiet. It has an upmarket feel. The pasta I ordered was delicious, nice and creamy and had great flavour. I would definitely recommend this place for a date. The prices were high but this is to be expected given the quality of the food, the location, as well as general inflation.
