Been here a few times. The duck floss noodles are good, nice and chewy. The DIY crispy pork belly is a fun one to share. It&#39;s handy they let you order &agrave; la carte for bigger groups.

Been coming here for years, mostly for the chai. It&#39;s just the right strength, not too sweet, and always consistent. That big shared table is my usual spot to get some work done. Prices have crept up a bit, but it&#39;s still my go-to.

The hot chocolate is so good here! Not too sweet, and always served warm, not scalding. Perfect for catching up with a friend. The staff are quick too, so you don&#39;t have to wait long to get your chat started.

We lunch quite frequently at the uniquely- decorated museum-tinted Natural History restaurant. The food is uniformly good - I particularly like the cauliflower steak - and reasonably priced. Service is friendly and efficient. Ask for the booth down the back for extra privacy

We should have booked a slightly earlier time in order to have better seating. The restaurant was busy, we ended up being seated too close to the air conditioner for comfort.

The cashew nut dish was the highlight for me. The cashews were so fresh and crunchy, and the vegetables still had a nice bite to them. Really appreciated the generous portion size for the price. A solid, healthy option.

A real old-school Italian spot, just a short walk from the beach. Perfect for a casual bite after a swim. The service was friendly and the vibe was cozy.

Service was spot on. Friendly, efficient, and they knew exactly when to check in and when to leave us be. That&#39;s a rare find these days. Made the whole dinner feel relaxed and unhurried.

Been coming here for years, and that tandoori platter is the reason. The Burra Kebab and chicken just taste right every single time. It&#39;s my go-to order, never disappoints.

Stumbled upon this place on Little Collins. The bento was generous, and their sake selection paired nicely with the grilled fish. Solid lunch spot.

The private room upstairs was perfect for my birthday brunch with friends. The team handled everything so well, we could just relax and enjoy the sunset on the balcony!

The chicken parma at happy hour was a solid deal. It&#39;s exactly what you want from a pub. The place gets absolutely packed though &ndash; definitely book ahead to avoid the wait.

The staff were flat out but still friendly. Got us seated quickly even though it was packed. They kept smiling through the rush, which was nice.

Birthday cocktail was a nice touch. The toasted marshmallow on the espresso martini was different, in a good way.

Great spot for a quick bite in Thornbury. Binu at the bar was super friendly, made me feel welcome right away. Grabbed a cheap beer and the food came out fast. Perfect for a lunch break.

Always enjoy coming here, especially on a sunny Sunday afternoon where the alfresco area is buzzing with lots of customers and Greek music! As usual, the kalamaki chicken was cooked to perfection! 👌 Very tender and delicious flavours!!Using the 50% off offer with The Fork is a bonus!We&#39;re always returning customers and highly recommend!

The staff were helpful and friendly. The food was great ad my porterhouse steak was cooked to perfection, medium just as I like it.

Been coming here for years. That French toast with berries is my go-to. It&#39;s like dessert for breakfast, but I&#39;m not complaining. Always get a window seat on sunny mornings, just hits the spot.

Second time we&#39;ve eaten here and I&#39;ve had a fantastic steak both times!  Staff were friendly and helpful and accommodated any requests regarding the menu.  Highly recommend for a nice restaurant that feels a little bit special without the hefty prices that other comparable restaurants charge.

The staff here are so lovely! They remembered my name from a previous visit and gave us a really warm welcome. The food is solid - I&#39;m still thinking about that perfect pasta from last time.

Was a lovely place, very busy the night we went and 39 degrees . The poor staff were run off their feet. My husbands oysters entree came out half way through him eating his main course. Took one of us to ask twice for the cake we he bought for my husbands birthday to be bought out. And more than once for the table to be cleared . One girl came and took some plates that I had stacked and the rest of the dishes Glasses , cake plates etc was still there 45 mins later when we left .

Love coming here with mates. It&#39;s just a really chill spot. The vibe is super relaxed, the staff are always nice, and you know the food will be solid. My go-to for a no-fuss dinner.

Been coming here for years, and the bar crew is always on point. Julian and Noah remember my usual order, which is a nice touch. They&rsquo;re friendly without being over the top, and actually know their stuff about the drinks. That consistency is why I keep coming back.

The eggplant parm was the star for me. The eggplant was perfectly tender, and the cheese had that great golden crust. Kitchen definitely knows their stuff. Staff were super chill about explaining the menu, too.

First time here, and the sukiyaki was the standout. The broth was so rich and savoury, perfect for a chilly evening. Really enjoyed that classic, comforting vibe.

The cold spicy buckwheat noodles were the standout. Perfectly chewy, the broth had a sharp, clean kick that cut through the richness of the BBQ. Really refreshing. The meat was good quality, but those noodles are what I&#39;ll remember.

The French staff are a nice touch, makes the place feel authentic. Good for a date night with the candlelit tables. Food was decent, but the wine list felt a bit limited for a French spot.

I really enjoy the open, fresh ambience within an interesting industrial building. Food is always delicious, and the various specular looking and tasting cakes, slices, and alike are too tempting to not have with their full flavoured  coffees.

Delicious again. Goat curry with a great depth of flavour - and perhaps the most pillowy naan we&#39;ve ever had. How to get to the character requirement? Oh: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Steaks and seafood were cooked just right. It&rsquo;s definitely a splurge, but for a nice night out, you get what you pay for. The bill did make me wince a little though.
