Great location in the heart of Church Street. We actually visited Florentines twice - quick lunch on Friday with its tasty panini’s and salad and again for a family breakfast on Sunday. Both days the service was excellent and the meals served promptly - well presented and flavoursome. Decor modern and cozy inside with a large exterior dining area as well - wonderful for couples, girls lunch or that large family brunch - well done Florentines!

Having found what looked like a very small seafood restaurant in St Kilda this room opened out into a truly magical outside space, bijou, but that was the charm of the place.The staff were so friendly and helpful. The menu was a wonderful mix of seafood, beautifully presented and served.The outside lights were all model ships hanging from trees which a lovely subdued lighting adding to the atmosphere. Should be tried for a great seafood experience, thank you claypots restaurant .

Welcome to Vivace. Our Suburban Italian restaurant (established in 2004) has a very classy and warm atmosphere, with soft and intimate lighting. Professional staff members are knowledgeable about the menu and wine list, and offer a non-intrusive level of service at all times. The tantalising menu ranges from fresh seafood to quality meat, with specials that change daily to keep regular diners happy.

6. Lentil As Anything St Kilda

Lentil As Anything, St Kilda, provides delicious food on a pay-as-you-feel basis to all members of the community.
Reviewed By Collier2812 - London, United Kingdom
I visited here with my partner after Reading about this place online, and wanted to visit to support the cause.
The first thing we noticed was that it was absolutely freezing in there - the front door was kept open and we had to keep our jackets on whilst we ate.
We both ordered Thali of the day - which was lovely in flavour, and seemed very authentic! The lentils were a particular favourite, and we both enjoyed the main - however I would have liked to have had one more small bowl of authentic curry/food (maybe a spicy one) or slightly larger servings of the first (as the lack of vegetables in the dishes didn't quite settle the appetite.
Unfortunately, the Thali was the only enjoyable thing about our experience - the service was very slow considering it wasn't particularly busy, and was a little disappointed that the only drink on offer was water - served in a plastic beaker.
The desert was chocolate chip cake - which was awful and neither of us had more than one bite!
Nevertheless, we paid $15 each for our meals, but won't be making a trip back. It's a shame because we do desperately wanted this to be a new favourite as the concept and aim of this place is fantastic, but it simply fell short in just too other areas!
7. Donovans
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 805 reviews
Welcome to Donovans - our ‘house on the beach’ and home we love to share. Donovans is located on the St.Kilda beach front offering guests a memorable dining experience in Melbourne. With a bay side view, beautiful mediterranean inspired food and the special relaxed atmosphere of the restaurant, Donovans is where you will feel at home.
Reviewed By Mebntoring - Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
Donovan’s has never disappointed. It is very classy, warm and inviting. From the welcome at the door to the final farewell we were cared for, nurtured, nourished and engaged in the entire meal.
The meals were perfect - portions, flavours and plate presentation - in every way. Including the two small children, every diner’s meal was a work of culinary art.
Donovan’s is highly recommended.
8. Humble House
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 145 reviews
Reviewed By Carringtonfs - Melbourne, Australia
Recently we went back Again to Humble House & were a tad disappointed @ how we were treated.
Admittedly we arrived 25 minutes early for our booking & were treated very poorly indeed.
After waiting @ the front door for 12 minutes - we were seated @ a nice table.
Ordered our drinks & checked their menu & ordered our meals including a serving of Roti Bread.
7 minutes later our Main courses arrived including the Roti Bread.
We had expected the Roti Bread to come before our Main Course & when I raised this issue with the one of the senior staff - was told "that is how we do it here".
Our good was fine.
Service just so so.
There appeared a lot of focus on take away customers.
We had finished our meals - paid our bill & left the Restuarant 44 minutes after we first arrived.
Our return to Humble House was a major disappointment & would not recommend to other friends

Reviewed By Ray B - Geneva, Switzerland
Zucchini Fritters - a delight, oysters for starters. This was followed by well-cooked Barramundi, spare ribs, chicken and average sea-food linguini. On the whole, a good eating experience but probably a bit on the pricey side, fitting for this upmarket suburb.
Good service on a very busy night but someone in our party was a friend of the management. Did this give us an edge?
10. Dandelion
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By WorldTravla7 - Brisbane, Australia
A Melbourne friend recommended we go here for a snack as he rates the place highly (we came out from the CBD especially!). Dandelion is a Vietnamese inspired cafe restaurant which does some very impressive dishes. Reading names off the menu like “Twice cooked beef short ribs with soy and coconut water, mountain spices & green mango salad” makes you want to order everything on it, but alas I was full from a big breakfast so opted for a sugary delight instead, the Marou chocolate crème brulee with chocolate ice cream. The service was extra good in terms of staff commitment and friendliness. I’d go back to try some of the mains without a doubt.
