Correction (10 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 9 October 2026.
This is a short page: three places passed our checks, one each in West Footscray, Maribyrnong and Braybrook. They are Harley and Rose, Palazzo and La Porchetta.
We have not copied a menu for any of them, so we do not name pizza styles or claim any dough or oven detail. What we give is the address, whose listing says what, and hours where a venue’s own site prints them. Each place was confirmed at two independent sources.
The quick picks
| If you’re after | Head to | Where |
|---|---|---|
| A Tuesday to Saturday evening out | Harley and Rose | 572 Barkly Street, West Footscray |
| BYO Italian with listed hours | Palazzo | 27 Wests rd, Maribyrnong |
| A Braybrook Italian sit-down | La Porchetta | 261 Ballarat Road, Braybrook |
Harley and Rose — 572 Barkly Street, West Footscray VIC 3012
We have filed Harley and Rose under pizza and pasta, but we have not copied its menu, so we cannot describe the style. Its own site lists Tuesday to Saturday from 5.00pm until late, closed Sunday and Monday. OpenStreetMap gives Friday as 17:00 to 21:30 and Saturday as 16:00 to 21:30. The site is undated, so hedge on currency.
BYO / takeaway: Not stated in what we copied, so ask when you book.
Palazzo — 27 Wests rd, Maribyrnong VIC 3032
Palazzo is the Italian sit-down on this page, at 27 Wests Rd, Maribyrnong. Its own site lists Monday to Thursday as 4:30pm to 9:30pm, Friday and Saturday as 4:30pm to 10:30pm, and Sunday as 4:30pm to 9:00pm. AGFG lists BYO, Takeaway, Alfresco Dining and Vegan Options for it. We have not copied its menu, so we cannot say whether pizza is on it.
BYO / takeaway: AGFG lists both, as listing features, so confirm the BYO arrangements with the restaurant.
La Porchetta — 261 Ballarat Road, Braybrook VIC 3019
La Porchetta’s locations page and AGFG both list the Braybrook branch at 261 Ballarat Road. It is a name you will recognise from elsewhere, and the listing is the part we can vouch for here. We have not printed hours or a menu for it.
Verdict for: Anyone who wants an Italian sit-down in Braybrook and will confirm hours and menu with the branch first.

How we checked
We checked every place on this page against at least two independent sources on 9 October 2026: OpenStreetMap, the places’ own websites and the Australian Good Food Guide. We copied no menu prices from these places’ own pages, so this page prints none. Menus, prices and opening hours change, so check with the venue before you go.
