Enjoy classic Italian cuisine at Il Gambero on the Park.

Located in the heart of Little Italy on Lygon Street, this cosy family restaurant sources the best Italian and local produce to create signature dishes to remember.

Now operating for more than 40 years, the team at Il Gambero are serious about serving the best pizza in town with an authentic Italian stone conveyor oven to ensure their thin crust pizzas are cooked to perfection every time.

For mains, try their namesake dish, the Il Gambero, with tiger prawns, garlic, fresh chilli, parsley, olive oil and a touch of napoli sauce. Or their spaghetti with traditional bolognese sauce for a hearty favourite.
