Our night at Movida Aqui was great. The food had plenty of character and was fresh (as always). Service was also top-notch, there was always a waiter visible and were also very attentive to our queries.

Since this was my second visit to Movida, I decided to try one of our favourite dishes (the Bomba) and was left slightly disappointed. In comparison to the Bomba we got in the past, this one was much larger and didn't give a wholesome 'bomb' of flavour that we got when we first tried it. In saying all this, my partner and I thoroughly enjoyed the sea urchin dish special (the 'Erizo'). The bill totalled to around $50 per head but we were more than satisfied with our dine here. Highly recommended!

I didn't have enough time to enjoy a sit-in at the chokolait hub, but my take away drink was just as exceptional. The iced jaffa (dark chocolate) drink which I ordered had just the right amount of orange and sugar to balance out the flavours and was just the right 'pick me up' when I braved the Melbourne rain outside. Will come back for more!

Went there last night with table of 16 last minute booking manager was really polite and very accommodating being cold and miserable winter night. He gave us a nice table by the fire place and was really attentive all night. Staff were polite, quick, food was great, highly recommend to anyone. The manager gave me his number said anytime sir that's what we are hereto give people an experience. Just shows people still love hospitality and are passionate about it still. Bravo

Since being renovated the old historic pub is no longer. Food took a long time to come out and we had to ask for the waiter to take our order for drinks. When the food did arrive it was verging on cool and had an Ok taste. When you order an eye fillet for $36 you expect it to be great. My sister in law ordered the parma which was soggy and had no flavour. Way too expensive for what you pay for!

We dined at Kojo Brown on 25 May 2012. We had a fantastic dining experience. The food was fresh, perfectly cooked and presented, and it tasted fantastic. The choices were quite varied.

The service was extremely efficient but not intrusive. The staff (young Japanese lady and the Chef) were incredibly friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them.

We will certainly be returning to Kojos on our next visit to Melbourne and would recommend that you dine there.

Good service and delicious food. The gnocchi al pesto are fantastic and the complimentary serving of bruschetta adds to the dining experience! Also, one of the few places that actually know how to make a decent latte!

Recently had a birthday celebration at Waterfront. A group of 7 with three hour parking out front. Ordered mains and dessert, received our dessert 15 minutes before our parking expired. Yes 2 1/2 hour for main and clean up. Our poor server was run off his feet with quite a large area to service, they seriously need to employ more staff.

Food was delicious but waiting for dessert and our coffees caused a great deal of stress, worrying about that parking ticket. Employ more staff guys!

Could have spent 10 bucks and gone somewhere else with more consistency. We didn't have high expectations but cold burgers is certainly not what we wanted from a burger diner. Advertised burger were 100% meat, but more like 20% meat and 80% breadcrumbs et al. Gave me indigestion.

Soft drinks severely overpriced, two burgers, two soft drinks and 1 fries came to $50. The manager was lovely enough, but his staff were a bit clueless.

Was a little disappointed, after being rushed to our seats, I then realized there was No Vegan meal option at all. I watched my family eat their meal and ordered a soy latte that seemed to get forgotten.

Disappointing. Overrated and unprofessional. Certainly not Melbournes finest seafood restaurant.

Decided to try this place as it was recommended. Ordered the banquets and a few bottles of wine. Food was plentiful, tasty and well worth the per head. Delightful eggplant dish and amazing pickles! Ambience was subdued and comfortable with the service being top notch. Great restaurant, would recommend to others and will be back myself.

While visiting Melbourne from Sydney over the Easter long weekend, Fenix was high on my list of restaurants to visit as I am a fan of Garry's recipes and my sister is mightily in love with him.

First impressions count, and the location alone was worth a glowing review. We were a group of 6 and were greeted within seconds of entering the premises and were seated immediately.

Our waiter, Ben, was one of the most helpful wait staff I have encountered. We were not left wanting for anything, our water was constantly filled, something we normally find ourselves having to ask for and all drink requests were fulfilled quite quickly.

The food was absolutely divine, I cannot even begin to describe the party all of us at the table described our mouths as having with each and every bite, with each and every dish.

Beautiful décor and atmosphere, amazing view of the Yarra river through the trees, brilliant service and brilliant food, brilliant night out. It is the most expensive restaurant I visited during my trip to Melbourne, but worth every cent, no disappointment was had.

Aboslutely Super Highly Recommended.

Recently came here while on a trip to Melbourne. I am planning my next trip down just for another burger. If you think that this is mildly excessive, clearly you have never been.

Came with 6 others, we ordered a few things each and shared it all round, utterly amazing. Had we not been so full, we would have ordered a second round of foods.

I don't want to single out anything off the menu, because everything we had was pure brilliance. Also, the best lemon, lime and bitters I have ever had, I had here.

Aboslutely Super Highly Recommended to anyone who will listen.

It's really interesting to see mixed reviews on this place. It is in my opinion one of the top 5 pizzerias in Melbourne. They stick to traditional Italian pizza with a thin base and minimal but fresh ingredients. If you're looking for huge toppings and thick bases piled with cheese, give the place a miss. If you're after a gourmet pizza D.O.C's the place for you! Prosciutto pizza with chilli oil, wow!

Average scores all around. A much better rating than I would have given the first time we tried to eat here as we didn't even manage to get served! (so we left).

The food is Ok (you expect a lot better), the surrounds can be dreadful especially in the summer with lots of dangerous looking transients going by and the service is terrible. The wait staff couldn't check us out without getting the senior staff who remained in her upstairs office on the telephone at 10 pm despite our numerous requests to pay and leave.

When she finally did honour us with her presence, it was with an air of "I can do without your business" and so I will never set foot in the place again and will encourage others not to go there either. There are too many good restaurants to put up with a stuff, overpriced, arrogant restaurant.

Its hard to believe this restaurant has so many good reviews and, unfortunately, we were lead there by their reviews. I am from Sydney and we have heaps of middle eastern/inspired restaurants.

I hope for the longevity of their business we caught them on a off night.

When we arrived we were offered drinks and the banquet for $75. Our friend had and eye lash in his quail egg, we sent it back. The waiter came back 1.5 minutes later saying there you go fresh one. The way they served the dish was to pour the broth over the ingredients. The problem was they did two in one hit, them 1/3 of the guy opposite me, they then did mine, and gave the guy opposite me another 1/3. We than waited about three minutes until the other 1/3 came out. Great start. This put a damper on our mood.

We ate cold soup, flavour was good but cold. We then asked the waiter if the soup was meant to be cold, he said oh no "hot" and then walked out The pickled beetroot had no flavour, and nothing was really impressive.

I was waiting for someone to ask me for a drink, the waiter came to the table three times overlooked my empty glass and I never got asked for a drink. Is this what you call fine dining?

I said to him is there a specific drink waiter, he said no! Then he said would you like a drink. I said I wanted one but forget it.

We got up and walked out and asked for the bill. They acknowledge we were not happy and didn't charge us for our meal. Regardless we would have never come back.

Very very disappointing.

I have been to Dizzy's many times and our kids really love it. They have a brilliant play structure and the whole space is huge so the kids can run amok and just tire out! I think the food is actually really good, coffee fine too. I worked it out that having a party at an indoor play centre is actually heaps cheaper than having one at home, and the added bonus is you don't really have to do anything as Dizzy's does it all for you.

We have had just a cafe table there and that was really relaxed and once we booked out one of their themed party rooms (the witches room) and the kids got all dressed up. Plus we had a visit by Dizzy the Dragon. It is definitely one of our favourite kids play centres (clean and the staff are young, but friendly and the place has a good vibe). Thanks!
