A Love Letter to Italian Hospitality
Monelli is more than just a restaurant—it is the culmination of a lifelong journey built on passion, tradition, and a deep love for food. Fate brought owners Cinzia and Ezio together in Rome in 1985, and from that moment, their story unfolded like a beautifully written recipe—filled with bold choices, heartfelt connections, and an unwavering devotion to their craft.
From opening their first café in Sydney to pursuing a decades-long career in fine jewelry, their journey has always been defined by artistry and dedication. Along the way, they built a family, raising their two children, Emanuele and Eleonora, with the same love and passion that shaped their own lives.
Returning to Perth in 2017, Cinzia and Ezio felt it was time to bring their dream full circle. Monelli is their tribute to the warmth of southern Italian hospitality—a place where tradition meets innovation, where every dish tells a story, and where the essence of coastal Italy comes to life.
Monelli is here to challenge expectations—bringing the heart of Italy’s coastal dining to Perth in an experience that is as unforgettable as the stories behind it.
