When we walked in the hostess stand wasn't apparent but was placed in the middle of the restaurant. The Gnocchi I received by mistake but it was a much welcomed one. The truffle was very pronounced.

I would definitely come back if I lived here.

Was staying at the Marriott hotel and quite literally it's right next door. Read the reviews and…read moreit sounded like one of the Melbourne hot spots. Tried to go on our first evening in Melbourne, but unfortunately the place was closed due to a private function (Christmas party). Came back a few days later. The weather had changed so it was unfortunately not the sitting outside kind of weather we had hoped and what looked like Trunk was designed for. Decided that we would go to the diner side, instead of the Italian side. Walked in and what struck us immediately was the noise! We had our hearts set on trying this very cool little spot. We initially had to wait for some seats to be cleaned up, even though there was a number of open tables. Once seated our server(s) were very friendly and we had our food on the table in no time. I went for the burger and my wife went for the chili salad. My burger was ok, but the bun was such that it nearly disintegrated and I was left trying to eat a squished out mess. I tried my wife's meal and it was definitely very tasty. Overall, The food was good, but not fabulous, like I had hoped. Even though the place was only 1/2 full, the noise levels were such that we had to nearly yell at each other to be heard. The entire place is glass, hardwood floors and metal chair (which make a seriously loud noise when moved). This would have been a cool place to linger and chat, but unless you have a blowhorn that's just not possible. Out servers were very friendly and good. I think had we been able to sit outside this would have been a fabulous spot. I'll go back, as long as I can enjoy my meal outside.

When I was here they didn't do anything especially egregious, but they also didn't seem to care about getting people served quickly. The absolute cacophony they have set up doesn't help either. The music is cranked up to 11 and it felt like the speakers were located right next to where orders are placed. Having to shout your order to someone that doesn't seem to care is frustrating, to say the least. Also, we arrived at lunchtime on a weekday, which is probably why we didn't get to see any "SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS". Despite having to deal with poor service, the food is darn good. The Pita with a Bone was the most tender and delicious lamb I've had in a long time. The bone just needed a slight tug and slipped right out. I loved every bite of that pita. They almost have the trifecta for what makes a bad restaurant: Insouciant staff? Check. Obnoxiously loud music? Check. Terrible food? Not... check... If it weren't for the food being so good, I wouldn't ever think of coming back to Miznon. They got almost everything wrong, but the one thing they got right, they got really right.

Featuring mixed souvlaki, gyros, sausages, keftedes & lamb cutlets, it was huge and each element was packed full of flavour. As for Agapi itself, the restaurant is pretty massive. It has two levels - we got a table upstairs. Despite it being so big, it seems to be fill up a lot. It is wise to book as we did. The decor is very homely and warm and the atmosphere is fairly buzzing. The service was very good and they gave good advice on our entree choices. They have a good range of seafood on offer as well besides their mixed grill goodness. In short, this place was a winner and we'll be back again soon.

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.

I really struggled not to stuff myself with food because honestly, it looked so good and the staff were really nice too. Will have to put it on my list to return to.

And a bottle of Shiraz. 4 of us, still food left and just $26 a person, that included the wine! Can't go wrong with friendly staff, late meal service and an incredibly reasonable price.

Quite rightly; he's spotted a gal that thinks meat, chips and slaw is an unmissable combo. Skewerd would fall into the category of awesome and fresh 'fast food', or super casual (but awesome) dining options. This Greek eatery is easily one of the best on Bay St for a quick meal or take out. I was going to ask for a Souvlaki...but priced at $9 I wondered if perhaps it might be too small for dinner. Not wanting to come back in the cold, I got the 'Yeeros Plate for One' ($17). Holy mother of meat. The photo doesn't do justice to the mountain of chicken, slaw, pita bread and chips I encountered. I over ate. I ate until I couldn't eat any more - then put the left overs in the fridge. My partner came home late and made not one but two souvlakis out of my left overs with some extra pita breads we just happened to have in the fridge. He said he wished he had only eaten one and saved the other for lunch. So the plate for one could effectively be a meal for 3 without a lot of effort! The food itself is very tasty. The cabbage salad wasn't great, but worked ok with the dish as a whole. They have beer and wine as a dine-in option, so the restaurant portion was packed full of families settling in for a meal. Meat + chips = crowd pleaser.
