400 Gradi Chain Expands to New Mildura Location

The 7th location for the 400 Gradi restaurant has opened on Deakin Avenue in Mildura. Celebrating Italian cuisine, the restaurant features the Zero Gradi Gelateria and Dessert Bar and Gradi’s Italian delicatessen concept Gradi Mercato. Johnny Di Francesco has partnered with co-owner and local resident Michael Sarrou in the venture, who previously ran Mildura’s Fasta Pasta for 17 years.

“Mildura is a special city situated at the heart of Victorian agriculture, with high-quality food and wine offerings throughout the region. We are honoured to open our first venue in Mildura and cannot wait to work alongside the locals,” says Di Francesco.

Named after the optimum temperature for cooking traditional Neapolitan pizza, 400 Gradi’s famous Italian cuisine – including its once crowned world’s best Margherita pizza and much-loved favourites – has landed in the region and locals can expect to enjoy the full menu.

 

 

The interiors for the extensive 300 capacity restaurant embrace 400 Gradi’s signature Italian luxe aesthetic with subtle greenery, terrazzo countertops and tables, and plush upholstery. The new space, outfitted by Dean Dyson Architects, includes two dining areas, a bar serving cocktails, and two private function rooms catering for 50 and 70 guests respectively.
