Restaurants in Essendon

As a group we left discussing the quality of service. Every staff member was professional, well informed & courteous. What stood out was the serving staffs communication & willingness to help. Everyone enjoyed their meals, (everyone being, 2 x Boomers, 2 x Gen X & a couple of kids cheeseburger meal eaters). Definitely be back

Friendly greeting on arrival, the main dining room was a bit too cool with the air con so relocated to Parklet which was great spot catching the late afternoon sun. Prompt & attentive service to take our drinks order. Our meal (shared mixed grill) was beautiful, the different meats tender & expertly prepared with chips, dips & bread & salad items finishing off the platter. The meal is very generous in size. With a nice wine each the meal was less than $70. Great value for 2 people for a quality meal. The staff are all very friendly providing an enjoyable experience all round.

It was a lovely gesture offering delicious focaccia and a desert complimentary. However as lovely as this was charging $59 for a Porterhouse steak with no sides ( just few chips) is way too pricey. The cut of meat was very chewy with plenty of veiny fatty bits.

Our food and the service were amazing! Our only downfalls was the heat and noise level. Very hard to have a conversation as it is quite a loud environment. And the front doors were open leaving us to feel a bit sweaty and uncomfortable while eating hot food! Won’t stop us from coming back though (: highly recommend!

It’s been a while since I’ve been there, & I was pleasantly surprised. Warm welcome, friendly staff,food portions were generous & cooked freshly, with an interesting menu that included pub favourites, with twists on other menu offerings. Can highly recommended the beef stir fry!!-delicious. Prices aren’t exactly cheap, but it’s good value for what you get in regard to quality,freshness & portions. Ambiance is low light moodiness and surprisingly quiet considering its on such a busy road.
