About this space

Exclusive venue hire for up to 30 guests — perfect for birthdays, small weddings, engagement dinners, and corporate functions. While we don’t have a separate private dining room, the entire restaurant becomes yours for a group booking.

We offer a $79 two-course set menu for group bookings, with popular entrées to share and a choice of mains served with sides. Vegetarian options and dietary requirements are always welcome.

TÁVOLA is fully licensed, and BYO wine is available during lunch for $15 per bottle. Book ahead to secure your date — our space is limited and popular for group dining on weekends.

Celebrate privately, dine Italian, and let our team take care of the rest.

About TÁVOLA Restaurant

TÁVOLA is in Bentleigh, near suburbs like Brighton, Elsternwick, and Caulfield, and only a short drive from Melbourne’s city centre. We’re known for authentic Italian food and heartfelt service. Our seasonal menus showcase handmade pasta, traditional recipes, and generous antipasti to share — Italian dining at its best.

TÁVOLA is a small 25 square-metre Italian restaurant that you can book just for your group of a maximum of 32 people seated at two long tables. It’s a great spot for birthdays, work events, engagement dinners, and other special occasions. When you book it for an event, you get the whole place to yourself. The space feels cosy but lively!
