For over 30 years, the Bortolotto's, namely Leo, Olimpia, Anna and Maria, have created a succession of restaurants featuring modern Italian cuisine, great service and an exciting atmosphere. Bortolotto's Cafe Menis in Fitzroy Street St Kilda epitomised the revolution sweeping Melbourne's food and wine world in the late 80s and 90s. Whether in the fine dining side of Bortolotto's or the often exuberant Cafe Menis, this was the place to be in this bustling bayside village.

A visit to Cecconi's in London prompted Lloyd Williams to establish such a venue at Crown Casino in 1996. Two years later he approached Olimpia to resurrect the ailing project. The grand venue on the Yarra perfectly suited the creative energy and vision of this family. Cecconi's at Crown rapidly became a premium dining venue, known around the world for its food, style and service.

In 2006 the family brought Cecconi's Cantina to Flinders Lane, at the former Langton's Wine Bar.

The Restaurant and the Private Dining Room offer the typical Bortolotto style of formal dining, while the Cantina offers a more casual bar experience.
