About the Business
Landmark Licensed Restaurant & Bar for Sale
Welcome to Tutti Trattoria, where Melbourne’s love affair with Italian dining comes to life in the heart of Essendon. This isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a neighbourhood institution. A place where long lunches turn into late-night cocktails, where every plate tells a story, and where locals have fallen in love with its effortless blend of style, soul, and seriously good food.
Since opening its doors in 2023, Tutti has become a staple of Essendon’s dining scene; delivering the kind of warmth, energy, and authenticity that makes people return again and again. Perfectly positioned on bustling Napier Street, surrounded by shops, transport, and strong local trade, Tutti commands attention with its chic facade and elegant yet welcoming fit-out. Over $300,000 was invested into its stunning transformation that blends European charm with contemporary Melbourne edge.

The layout is thoughtfully designed with four internal dining spaces plus footpath seating, catering to everything from intimate dinners to private celebrations. Licensed for 98 patrons and operating with a full A-grade commercial kitchen, Tutti delivers seamless service across every section.
