Younger brother to I Carusi, St Kilda's I Carusi II maintains the same old-school approach to pizza that led the original to fame. Italian pop-art posters decorate the simple landscape of linen-draped tables, where an extensive variety of pizza is available with little else, but this doesn't seem to bother diners. Dessert pizzas here are not to be missed, but for a taste of something different, apertivo nights are hosted on the first Sunday of each month.
i Carusi ii was opened in 2004 as a simple Pizzeria. As a pioneer of the artisan pizza movement in Melbourne it quickly developed a loyal following. It has since evolved to become an Osteria offering a full restaurant menu. Inspiration comes from Sicily (God’s Kitchen) and countless Nonna’s back home in Italy. Artisan, traditional and honest food. Home made gnocchi ragu, rib eye tagliata, and vegetable based gnocchi’s are among some of favourite home made dishes. We are now open from 12 noon on the weekends for lunch. Functions and Private Dining options are also available. The passionate staff will greatly enhance the experience.
