Mietta's Review
Founded in 1967 it's still young and still packing them in. The bohemians of old, the students of now, the locals and the Lygon St tourists. Tiamo looks after them (loves them even) the same as always. Friendly, homely but with a style. Coffee is a favourite here. You can still get good gnocchi and scaloppine, they buy good-quality meat and cook it the old-fashioned way. Nestling right beside the original loved one, the emphasis at Tiamo 2 is more on food, more tables for eating. Both places have tables outside on the Lygon St footpath and are always busy. Alberto (who shares ownership of both places) says the food here is 'fiddly southern style cooking, more gourmet - more upmarket.' Take your pick.
