A25 Pizzeria - South Yarra

Hardly any slipping on the pizza, tasteless and extremely overpriced

The restaurant is just a 10-minute walk from South Yarra station on Cape Street and has some great vegan options. You can sit outside in the cold, but they do provide heating indoors. They also offer pasta dishes, and everything I've tried there has been quite good—although not outstanding, it’s still very enjoyable.

On Friday night, the restaurant was bustling with activity. It had a vibrant atmosphere and a clearly marked menu with a good selection of dishes. I didn't try the pizza, so I can't speak to that, but the Arancini was excellent. The pesto pasta was lovely as well, though a bit too oily for my taste. The staff were quick and friendly. Overall, it felt like a really popular spot.

I’ve tried the vegan and gluten-free gnocchi Napoli, pumpkin arancini, vegan and gluten-free focaccia, and vegan and gluten-free A25 pizza. While all the food was delicious, the service was a bit strange. The staff weren’t very attentive, and I had to ask for things multiple times. Additionally, the seating arrangement isn't ideal for having a conversation, as the tables are quite close together. However, the food is absolutely top-notch!
