Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

- Garry PMelbourne, Australia17 contributionsStunning 1880's architecture. The Royal Exhibition building held Australia's first federal parliament.
There are beautiful gardens in the surrounds, and it's a short walk to Melbourne Museum and the CBD.

Large platters to share and all enjoyed dishes but needed sauces.Written 23 December 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Paul LHallam, Australia997 contributionsA little slice of green space in the city not far from Melbourne University. It's about the size of a small city block.
Would you go out of your way to see it? No. It's just a small park area.
Does it have anything of artistic value you just have to see? No. As above.
However it is a pleasant area to 'take 5' if you feel the need and no doubt many university students over the years have done just that in between classes or similar.Written 19 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- C...Victoria, Australia92,249 contributionsPart of Argyle Gardens, Carlton's Piazza Italia is an outdoor square that hosts special events in the area. It's a really pretty space with gorgeous illuminated Christmas decorations in it. It is located on the iconic Lygon Street so it's a lovely place to go for a walk through after you have eaten in one of the nearby eateries.
It offers a green space that fits naturally into the landscape of the area. It is a lovely place to visit. My sister and I walked here admiring the decorations after eating dinner recently.Written 2 December 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
