Stefano's Restaurant

The most amazing dinner my family and I have had in a while! The service was so attentive and friendly and the restaurant is dressed up very nicely - like stepping into a Italian grotto. But THE FOOD. Everything had amazing flavour and such a nice variety of things to try in the set menu. I am also vegetarian and the restaurant was easily able to accomodate the menu for this. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to splurge a bit for a special night 😊

Stefano’s in Mildura was an unforgettable dining experience—well worth the wait and absolutely exceptional. This beautiful restaurant exudes warmth and charm, with knowledgeable staff delivering impeccable service. The five-course degustation menu was simply sublime, with every bite a delight. The cuttlefish on polenta and the tagliatelle with rabbit ragu were standouts, leaving a lasting impression. To top it all off, we had the incredible privilege of meeting Stefano himself, who took the time to chat about food, the region, and family. When you admire someone for so long, it’s a joy to find they are everything you imagined they'd be. for.

Without a doubt, the best restaurant in town. Delicious, rustic Italian food made with love. There is no other restaurant in Sunraysia that has the atmosphere Stefano’s does. The wine list is large, comprehensive, and curated with care. There’s a wine for everyone. They can perfectly pair your meal with many different wines, whether by the glass or by the bottle. A 10 out of 10 experience, and I would highly recommend making a detour to dine at Stefano’s.

Stefano is sponsoring local food and local wines. Outstanding service with great sommelier advice by Nathan and a very friendly chat with stefano himself. We had the degustation 5 course meal which has no menu but comes announced with each dish. the highlight being the cuttlefish with cuttlefish ink and polenta and an amazing Murray cod as main course, all peppered with local drops from chalmers winery. The dessert might have been a bit short of the inspiration and drive of some of the other dishes and the fish was a tad under seasoned. But in every possible way this is a must go destination if in the area.

The food was delicious, the portions were generous, and they even brought out a pan of pasta to top everyone up, which felt genuinely welcoming. It’s a real home away from home for wine. From alternative varieties to the classics, the list is thoughtful and well chosen, and it’s easy to find something that drinks beautifully with the food. An outstanding experience and easily one of the best places to dine.

A wonderful dining experience. The staff were professional and approachable, the food was sublime, and the cellar atmosphere was intimate. Even ingredients I don't normally like tasted wonderful in terms of the whole serving. One of the best restaurants we have been to for a long time. The cost I cite includes wine.

Going downstairs to Stefano’s never disappoints with luscious food and perfectly matched wine. A very special restaurant with a beautiful ambiance. Additionally, the antipasto menu is delicious with a selection of lighter options instead of the set menu. Either way, you’ll always leave happy and well cared for.

Always an amazing experience every time I dine here. Every guest of mine has been blown away with the food, wine and ambiance. Such a special place in regional Victoria, and Mildura is so lucky to have in its great town.

Great service and food. Downstairs is very cute. The wait staff were well informed and attentive
