Toni Pasta and Wine is an Italian restaurant and wine bar at 31 Hall Street, Moonee Ponds. The kitchen makes its pasta fresh in-house every day and serves it alongside wood-fired pizza, snacks, cocktails and wine. The idea, as they put it, is to cook the way Italian families eat at home.

Tuesday is Cotoletta Tuesday, when the kitchen serves Nonna’s chicken cotoletta with house slaw, unlimited fries and a glass of wine. They also run Italo disco nights, so the room gets lively as the evening goes on.
