Cicciolina

About Us

Cicciolina is a long-running Italian restaurant and bar on Acland Street in St Kilda, open since 1993. The kitchen turns out straightforward, authentic Italian cooking — think tuna carpaccio, spaghettini vongole, and crab soufflé — in an art-lined dining room that feels intimate and lived-in. A back bar operates from 5 pm for walk-ins, and an extensive wine list of more than 250 labels is a house signature. Bookings are taken online for lunch and dinner; a private dining room accommodates groups of 8–14.
