Lobster Cave

Reviewed By Ken D - Melbourne, Australia

Entree. Chilli squid - Charcoal prawns. Both excellent.
Mains. Lobster mornay excellent. - Surf and turf. All excellent except steak. A nice piece of steak served almost raw. Menu says "medium" still blue in the middle. Rare at the most.
Desert. Fig with icecream- excellent.
Wine list is limited. Suggest bring your own, if you want a particular wine.
Overall a very good place to dine.

Krishna Indian Restaurant

Reviewed By justdoinggeography - Melbourne, Australia

Really tasty and pleasant Indian food and accompaniments. Two distinctly different curries and both were really good. Pieces of meat were very tender and lean. The breads (roti and naan) were also very well done. Portion sizes were more than adequate. Service was reasonably good given it was a busy night. All good.

Cerberus Beach House

Award-winning beachfront restaurant upstairs serving locally sourced modern Australian seafood cuisine with Asian influence an unique wine list, warm Bayside welcome, and stunning 180 degree views over Half Moon Bay. Alternatively visit our take away kiosk downstairs and enjoy traditional fish & chips right on the beach.

Reviewed By BenYorkie - Malaysia

A good place to get food, drinks(no alcohol onthe beach) and snacks. There's a downstairs kiosk which serves the beach front crowd and also an upstairs sit down much posher restaurant(serves alcohol).
We had our grub from the kiosk - lovely grilled salmon, smashing crispy barramundi fish & chips, and a lovely fresh Greek salad. We also ordered a serve of calamari which wasn't as good as our other meals - pity; we found the batter around the calamari greasy and undercooked.
But hats off to Cerberus - overall we had a very good lunch, and at fair prices.

True South

Argentinean Restaurant & Bar. The tapas style menu is ideal to share, with everything from Seafood to Suckling Pig, there is something on the menu for everyone. Cocktails, wine and the True South craft beers and ciders can be enjoyed at the bar or in the large outdoor dining section, which has a front row seat to the stunning sunsets over Port Philip Bay. True South offers private dinning, cocktail parties, weddings and more; if you have an occasion to celebrate please get in touch.

We enjoyed our visit here a year ago so thought we should visit the Restaurant again, we were not disappointed the Service was excellent and the Sharing Dishes very good. Try the Spinach Starter, wonderful. We went for the Baramundy Fish and Steak that I had on Lentils quite superb and finished with a Coconut Cake and Coconut Parfait. The choice of wines excellent, the Pinot Noir excellent.

Sumalee

Reviewed By Abi C - Melbourne, Australia

Visited for a birthday dinner upon recommendations of friends. Bentwood chairs quaint but very uncomfortable. My sister and I both had the Fish on the Beach which was tasty and quite spicy with chilli throughout the dressing and on the fish. My father had the special ‘Honey Soy Ribs’ which he found a little sweet but very tasty. We were disappointed that there was only one panacotta available for dessert by the time we ordered but the restaurant is small so order early if you want to ensure you get what you want. Moderately priced restaurant but quality food that seemed fresh and well presented.

Six Keys Restaurant

Reviewed By JaneJeffreys - Bayside, Australia

This has become our new 'go to' restaurant. It's warm and inviting. Staff are welcoming and the food never disappoints. You can share almost everything on the menu, so great for anyone like me who wants everything on the menu. There's always a small specials board with interesting options and the wine list has some lovely options by the glass.

Cheltenham Moorabbin Rsl

Reviewed By Jacalyn Leah M - Patterson Lakes, Australia

Nicely renovated, but as with most RSL clubs the dining area is in the noisy side making it hard to have a conversation with friends.
Food was good with reasonable portion sizes but overpriced given the environment.
Limited vegetarian options to the point where one person on the table said I’ll have the vegetarian meal the waitress said so the pasta xxx.
Interestingly when I looked closer at the menu a couple of the dishes could have been made as vegetarian but this was not pointed out
The trio of dips and bread was nice but the dips were served too cold for warm bread and the bread being a very dense bread probably should have been sliced thinner to make it more enjoyable and go further across a large group. We had to order more bread as there wasn’t enough for the amount of dip

The Parlor Milkbar & Kitchen

Reviewed By CheltenhamVIC - Melbourne, Australia

The Parlor is tucked away amongst the golf courses along Weatherall Road. It's a nicely renovated building that is bright and airy inside. In winter there's an open fire.
It has a huge all-day breakfast menu, basic lunch items from 12 and I think there were some dinner items. The meals are mid-sized and delicious. Plenty of drinks on offer. A note on the menu ask diners not to customise meals when they're busy.
Service is very good.
In good weather there's a small deck out the front.
We enjoyed our quick lunch for four.
