How could we not stop in for at least a drink at this hip bar and restaurant with such an evocative…read morename. Naked for Satan is a large space with a sprawling open air rooftop up on the 4th floor along with a smaller pub-like space on the main level. We joined the 30-something crew up on the deck on a mild March day. In the shade it was a tad cool and you could tell fall was setting in. There is no table service on the patio so you need to go inside to order food/drinks. We enjoyed a couple of pisco sours while watching people trickle in after a busy work week. The interior has a steam-punk, industrial vibe and that's fun and inventive. Service at the bar was friendly and they brought our drinks to us outside. We only had an hour free in our packed itinerary but I'd definitely head back to try the food and just partake in the great people-watching,

Wow, what a find!! Rooftop Greek restaurant in the heart of Melbourne, with incredible views of the…read morecity. Inspiring menu and very friendly servers! Started with a shot of masticha - an amazing Greek liquor. Nice wine list, with a selection from Greece and Australia (well, I did go with an Australian wine). The grilled octopus appetizer was amazing - tender and drizzled with olive oil and parsley. The lamp kebab was cooked to perfection, soft and flavorful, accompanied by tzatziki and pita bread. The food is delicious, the view breathtaking, the servers exceptional... I wish I could give 6 stars! Tip: make reservations- the place is super-popular!!

Just off Little Bourke St on level 1 is a little Latin American bar called Vamos. Dimly lit with…read moresome cosy little fairy-light nooks, coming here early on a Thursday night for a knock-off drink provided a nice casual spot to catch up for a drink. Service is great, the staff were really lovely and helpful. Many of the staff here also teach Spanish at the local language school where I study, which certainly speaks to their passion for bringing their local flavour to Melbourne. The menu is Latin American inspired small plates, so we ordered a couple of bites from the bar snacks portion to share as a group - beef shin empanadas, guacamole and chips, and polenta chips. All were tasty, the guac and chips were spot on and I particularly like the polenta chips as they were quite thin and crunchy rather than the chunky-burn-your-mouth out trying to eat it type. I'd come back and give dinner a go. I wasn't drinking so can't comment much on the booze available, but I did see that they do have happy hour specials going and mulled wine for winter. Probably somewhere I'd come more for a beer or margarita than a wine. They have a lot of shows and events here, their web site features a lot of fun Latin-American inspired music acts from mariachi bands to flamenco and Brazilian performers if you're looking for something more upbeat. If a boozy rowdy night is your style, I'd plan ahead for when something is happening or go on a Saturday night. If you're after a more chilled out spot to catch up with some friends, early weeknights are a good time to go.

Lovely Italian Spot Along the Promenade…read more Having had too rich a diet recently we started with a couple of Negronis, a plate of tomatoes, and some olives. They served us some bread to go with and we were in heaven munching while watching the river and the people drift by. The service was prompt, but not rushed and I noticed after a while that all the servers were Italian. This is a nice touch. After finishing those we were still a little hungry and split a plate of pesto gnocchi. The dumplings were light and firm and the pesto sauce was perfect. We savored that and a little more people watching and eventually drifted off. There are a huge number of choices along the Promenade. After writing off the chain restaurants, the soulless corporate fronts with thumping music, and the ones with the dreaded QR code ordering systems there are still many to choose from. We found Teatro among our favorites for its simple authenticity and diverse menu.
