    There are plenty of delicious cakes here, but my cousin brought me here to sample their savoury dishes. This was my first time in Oakleigh, so I opted to try a classic dish Moussaka. It was rich and flavourful. Our waiter was friendly and helpful. I need to come back and sample some of their sweet treats.

    If you're in the area check out the cakes and biscuits on offer as this is Vanilla's strength, but get them to take away as the food and coffee is average and service is patchy. The coffee is more often a miss than a hit, the soy latte is regularly lumpy, which freaks me out. If you have the choice, keep walking for a better coffee.

    Fried calamari

    Playing tourist my first time in Melbourne. Work colleagues took us to this busy trendy place in Oakleigh. They have this nice patio for dining and watching the pedestrian traffic.. We sat upstairs in a quieter but rurally nice setting overlooking the street. Menu has a variety to please everyone from Greek to some Italian to continentals. Ordered fried calamari main while colleagues ordered steak dinner, Salmon filet, and grilled meat skewers. Food was delicious and the service was friendly. My calamari was perfectly cooked and came with a generous portion of chips (ok fries for us North Americans) and a salad. What more could one ask for?

    Black Forest

    Super friendly staff. Had the Black Forrest with strawberry milkshake and it was fantastic. The strawberry milkshake portion is huge so I wouldn't order it for myself. I'd get the mini shake instead. Minimum eftpos charge is $20 and split bills is available after peak hours. Will definitely come back for the shakes and cakes! Ooh did I mentioned that it's also Halal? They prepare the bacon separately. So just ask your meal bacon free and they'll understand. :)

    Not my omelette but my friend favorite sandwiches.

    This my favorite breakfast in oakliegh. Greek omelette and a chi latte is what i need to start my day. Lovely place and delicious food. Friendly environment.

    We had dinner at Meat Me Souvlakeri during our recent trip to the land down under and thoroughly…read moreenjoyed the experience. The vibe is lively and warm -- exactly what you'd expect from an authentic Greek spot in Oakleigh's Eaton Mall. There's a great buzz with plenty of chatter and energy, making it perfect for a casual dinner with friends or family. Whether you're seated indoors or outside, the atmosphere feels welcoming, relaxed, and social -- the kind of place where you instantly feel comfortable. Service was friendly and generally prompt, even on a busy night. Our food came out quickly, and the staff were attentive throughout the meal. While we've heard it can slow down during peak times, that wasn't our experience at all -- we felt well looked after. The food was the real standout. Greek classics like the gyro and souvlaki were packed with flavor, served in generous portions, and paired with super fresh pita bread. The mixed grill and meat skewers were juicy, well-seasoned, and cooked just right. The dips, especially the tzatziki, added a perfect creamy balance. Portions are hearty and satisfying -- come hungry. While not every dish was flawless, the overall quality and flavor easily made up for it. All in all, it's a fantastic spot for casual Greek food with solid service and a vibrant atmosphere. We'd absolutely return to try more from the menu.

    Overall this place is quite consistent in terms of quality and flavour. I wouldn't say it's the…read morebest but is good! I tend to stick to the gyros plates as the bread is a bit too much but on the odd occasion after a "few" drinks nothing beats it. Wholesome hearty goodness !!!!
