Scopri

Reviewed By Matteo B - Roma,Italia

Fourth time here and not one disappointment. The food is great, another level in comparison to any other restaurant in Melbourne. The service fantastic and professional with some of the best Italians in Australia. The owner is a careful and caring person, always there, for anything you need. If I could I would come back tomorrow

Reviewed By alanwillconsult - Marbella, Spain

Just arrived in Melbourne and went to trendy Carlton, not sure what to expect from this Italian restaurant. It didn't start off well, There was only a half portion of Cannelloni left for me, my partner had the last full portion. I has happy to have only the half portion with a salad. Lori the owner was distraught that there was not enough for a full portion for me.So she offered me any alternative I wanted, didn't"charge for the salad, offered us both a sweet and a liquor. I then asked if she could order a taxi for us, she went outside to get a taxi, because were difficult to obtain she even offerd the taxi driver a coffee to take us back to our hotel. Talk about going the extra mile. By the way the Cannelloni was great.

Jacks Satay Bar

A Malaysian restaurant serving traditional and contemporary Malaysian dishes for the past 28 years. Home Delivery and take away available, licensed, BYO wine and champagne only.

Reviewed By Kevi1969 - Tamworth, Australia

My partner lives in Moonee Ponds currently I’m down visiting and he suggested Jacks.
In my opinion your food is flavoured beautifully one of those restaurants where you don’t need to overstate what is on the plate to feel the full force of flavours.
You have an understated restaurant with an over the top fantastic menu and the customer service is the bonus.
Modesty is the key to your success and you are a real gem in a location out of the city.

Station Hotel

Rude dismissive staff. Seemed to be the hardest thing in the world for the redhead chick behind the bar to organise a tab! Easiest thing in the world to put on a smile and welcome people...won’t be back...

Esca Grill

Reviewed By Bucks-05 - Australia

A colleague put me onto this restaurant and it was great.

The entree was to die for. Cannot remember the exact name, but it was a shaved meat/charcuterie dish with buffalo cheese and Parmesan cheese. That was absolutely enough for me and 2 other of my table as it was magnificent!
But then onto the mains....
The Dry aged beef was incredible. My cut was rib eye on the bone 'rare' and it was incredible. Cooked to perfection.
I didn't have dessert, but of the 5 of us, 4 did. Three had Tiramisu and wait for it - they bring out the biggest bowl of all time and give the biggest piece possible.
All said it was amazing.
Total cost with entrees, main meal and 4 (of 5) desserts was incredibly reasonable for the quality of food and 3 bottles of wine.
Not for kids at all and was very surprised they did not cater at all for vegetarians.
Definitely will go again.

Cafe Terroni

Reviewed By JonNewport - Melbourne, Australia

This suburban gem consistently produces great Italian food. Joe the host always makes you welcome and makes you feel special in his restaurant. We had the pappardelle and the orecchiette which were delicious with a bottle of Margaret River Chardonnay. This restaurant has a great atmosphere and very good service and is reasonably priced. It is worth the visit and a great place to dine after a movie at the Sun Theatre.

We met friends here for lunch today.
The hostess is such a lovely lady. Very knowledgable about the food & very friendly.

Khao San Road

Reviewed By FastaEdy - Melbourne

Had been looking forward to returning here as we had a fantastic food experience recently. Very busy Saturday night and lucky to be seated on arrival without a booking. Must have been a bad night in the kitchen as although everything that we ordered landed on our table quickly and seemed fresh and portion sizes good nothing seemed to suit our palates, perhaps We have gone off Thai food ?? Fantastic service as usual but it is on the expensive side. Will return, highly recommend if You love Thai food.

Friends of Ours

Reviewed By Jeffry B - Melbourne, Australia

It is some time since I visited Friends of Mine, as usual the coffee was excellent and the service was attentive. The menu, however, was a trifle pedestrian and needs a revamp. The smoothies are great. Customers are likely to appreciate some innovation, especially in the mainly egg-based breakfast menu. The daily specials are interesting. I'll certainly be returning to this welcome component of the Keilor Road Coffee Conurbation.
