- Our Story -

Newly opened  in  2014, RAFFAELES  is  located  and  nestled  amongst the main street and gateway of the Yarra Valley.

 

We  offer  diners  a relaxing and tentative service  in an  intimate  design  surrounding.

 

RAFFAELES  is  an ideal  place  to  find traditional  Italian cuisine, with pan cooked, gourmet pizzas  infused  with International  influence.

( Take-away is available and special requests are welcome )

 

Raffaele Benevenga and  his  wife  Judi are a great team , with  Raffaele  holding  court  in  the  kitchen  while  Judi and her friendly staff  look  after the front of  house. 

 

Come and enjoy our welcoming atmosphere and ambience, which

compliments our menu  with  a  variety  of  modern  and  classic Italian  dishes  that  is  large  enough  to  satisfy  even the  fussiest  of eaters.

 

Ample  car  parking  is available  and  there  is something  for  everyone at  RAFFAELES.

 

With over 25 years and endless award winners  and  finalists, RAFFAELES is back in Lilydale!!
