Discover Melbourne's best pizza at Shop 225

Award-winning pizzeria Shop 225 is the dark horse in Italian fare in Melbourne and it is very easy to see why this discreet eatery is fast-becoming a favourite amongst Melbourne foodies. On an unassuming street in Pascoe Vale South is where Shop 225 sits quietly and where you will not only find the award-wining pizza on the menu but also delicious pasta dishes, homemade wagyu meatballs and crispy salads. Traditional Italian fare is served here, of course, but what makes this restaurant a great rendezvous for lunch or dinner is Shop 225's ability to accommodate pretty much every dietary restriction, making this eatery the perfect choice for when you are organising a catch-up with that group of friends that is bubbling with different dietary restrictions, vegetarian, vegan, halal and gluten-free. Diners are spoilt for choice with most dishes available in different variations, try the vegan meatballs or the vegetarian cotoletta, deep fried lion's mane mushroom nuggets, and for coeliac diners all pizza and pasta dishes are available gluten-free. Whatever you order though make sure you leave room for dessert, the homemade tiramisu is a delicious classic while the signature Gnocchi Dolci, deep fried gnocchi covered in cinnamon sugar and served with nutella, is a delightful twist on the tried and tested doughnuts.
