Authentic Neapolitan cuisine with a hint of Melbourne – that’s 400 Gradi. Home to the award-winning margherita pizza and oh-so-sweet pizze dolce. Where the pizza is baked to 400 degrees and eating dessert first is never frowned upon. A place where fine Italian dining meets a stellar drinks menu, and the chefs can be heard cracking a few punny pizza jokes from the kitchen.
