   We had a FANTASTIC experience at Postmistress. The food was really delicious. Highly recommend the Melanzane Pizza & Brucia Culo pizza. The veal involtini was scrumptious and the ricotta gnocchi melted in your mouth. Lydia, our waitress was the BEST! She was very knowledgeable when it came to the dishes on the menu and she was very friendly and welcoming. The restaurant itself was really nice. I liked the fact that you could see the kitchen on one side and on the other side there was a bar. The tables were large and spacious and the chairs were quite comfortable. I would highly recommend this restaurant and we will definitely return! Thank you for an enjoyable evening Postmistress!

   This was our first time at Postmistress and the food and drinks were fantastic. Everyone really enjoyed their meals and we stayed for another round of drinks and dessert. The person I'm guessing is either the Manager or Owner was lovely, warm and welcoming. He ended up taking care of us for a decent length of time, as our server was MIA. We waited nearly 15 minutes before our food and drink order was taking by the lovely Owner/Manager, as our server couldn't be found. When she did show up, she was nice but not around much and we had to keep following up drink orders etc. It was a shame, as the food and drinks were so good, and it put a dampener on an otherwise great night out.

   We dined here for our anniversary, were presented with complementary Prosecco to celebrate, and from there the night just got better. Great service, delicious food and a great evening overall. Thanks to all the staff!

   Postmistress is our favourite local restaurant. The staff are amazing as is the food. The gnocchi is sensational and the prawn risotto needs to become a regular feature on the menu and not just a special.

   1st time at this restaurant - found it by google searching restaurants in specific suburbs. Was not looking for a cheap eats as I was shouting & sharing the experience with a very dear friend for a long awaited catchup but nor was I looking for a restaurant with exorbitant over-the-top prices for food that wasn't to our likings, overly different or just weird. We both love italian food so that was my preference but wanted italian food that sounded like (via reviews) that it was made authentically & most importantly was made with love. Viewed the location, menus, prices, reviews & parking availability of many restaurants in suburbs around the Brunswick / Moonee Ponds / Essendon suburbs and in the end the Postmistress Eatery was my selected choice and was hoping that it wouldn't disappoint. Disappoint it DID NOT! Myself & my dear friend absolutely loved, loved, loved it! We enjoyed starters of the Bruschetta - 1 each - best Bruschetta we have ever had along with sharing an Arancino Siciliano each. For mains, my friend enjoyed the Agnello (slow cooked rich lamb ragu) Pasta & I enjoyed the Prawn Risotto special (it was delish!!). We washed these meals down with an alcoholic beverage & water. I had planned on also having a dessert but our bellies were both very satisfied after this (I'll definitely have it next time!). We arrived for an early dinner at 5pm and were the first ones there but as the evening progressed the place was buzzing with customers. We didn't really notice the noise and didn't have to scream or experience difficulty hearing because we were fortunate enough to have a 2 seater table with perplex partitions on either side of our table - best ever!! I normally struggle with hearing in such environments but the partitions made such a huge difference. Myself & my friend enjoyed 3 wonderful hours of catchup together enjoying an amazing dinner. Postmistress Eatery is definitely going to be my go-to restaurant for future special dinners with special friends.

    Great service and good. Nothing was too much trouble and they were graciously let my little son run a muck! Also, he almost ate his weight in Parmesan cheese which was again, very nice of them. Overall great and worth going to.
