A photo of Cecconi's Flinders Lane restaurant

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our anniversary dinner at Cecconi’s Flinders Lane. The restaurant came highly recommended by family members and our daughter gave us a very generous voucher to use towards our dinner. The staff were knowledgeable and helpful with the menu, without being intrusive. The food was delicious and there was an extensive selection of beer, wine and cocktail options.

Amazing food Amazing staff Wine and cocktails were perfect. However, they need to offer a wider variety of bottled beer. Imported beer is nicer than Aussie beer.

The food was truly outstanding. Loved the new tasting menu and all the treats were a credit ti the chef and his talent. The only suggestion I could offer is that the waiters night be a little more consistent in offering drinks to those who are not wine drinkers. The cocktails were exceptional and we would have ordered more but perhaps they knew tomorrow was a work day. Lol
