La Bussola - Melbourne

Visited a friend near the other night, and he recommended that we go around the corner for his place to pizza. He saved how good it was, and I stayed calm and didn't want to make waves. I know he goes there many times after he had something to drink, so every food is good. Quality did not come anywhere near what I expected to see that it was led by authentic Italians I did not go back there

This family-owned restaurant offers pizza, pasta, and delicious homestyle dishes in a relaxed and inviting atmosphere. It's the perfect spot for a quick and satisfying meal. Our family has been frequenting this place for years.

Absolutely awful. When I inquired about the gnocchi being homemade, the response was not only "yes", but also boasted that it was made by the chef's mother. Who do they think they are fooling? The gnocchi was the worst homemade version I have ever tried.

After changing hands some time ago, La Bussola/Compass now delivers in spades, the pizzas are thin and crispy with a good spread of fresh ingredients and the restaurant seating area has been reworked to be very family-friendly / group-friendly. Great place for a din in...Meal or Takeaway option.

I have been a regular at La Bussola for many years. This charming family-owned Italian and pizza restaurant serves mouthwatering pizzas and delicious Italian dishes. The authentic taste of the old-school pizza oven is truly incredible!
