We caught up for a girls lunch at L'Artigiano Ivanhoe. We had the lunch special of a mains pasta, house wine (beautiful wine) and the canoli dessert, all for $35 The coffee is great as well. The service was really good, and a lovely ambience in the restaurant, and not noisy. We will definitely return.

The flavours and smells from the open kitchen set a good ambience. The food was tasty with a modest selection of delightful tasty dishes. Attentive service but on a cold night the dining room was quite chilled and cold air blasted through.
