Meilleurs restaurants australiens à Hillside

We dined today at the Ascot Vale Hotel and all enjoyed the excellent value 'Tradies Lunch'. At $25 for the meal including a glass of wine and a drink, it is great value. I highly recommend the Barramundi and chips!! But, more importantly, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Isaac was our 'Main Man' and he looked after the 5 of us very well. A very nice guy and we all appreciated his delightful sense of humour! Keep up the great work guys! PS: I have a bit of skin in the game, having been a barman for 3 years when completing my degree at Victoria Uni (ex FIT).

The menu is a bit small, but do they pack a punch! The kangaroo tartare tartlet and the lamb dup are both outstanding. Good wine list as well. But it’s not a very busy restaurant and the service is excellent.

From the moment we stepped inside, we were greeted with warm hospitality and an ambiance that transported us into an emporium of fantasy!!!! Whereby, we didn’t want the night to end !! We wanted to stay in wonderland of culinary expertise !!! Every bite is a symphony of flavours and every dish was a work of art, that kept on giving… Each dish is a masterpiece, showcasing the chef's creativity and passion for food and love of his culinary expertise. It wasn’t just a meal, it was an unforgettable journey through the seasons.. Wow wow Wow !!! I don’t think any other restaurant would match what you have created !!! It is the best restaurant in Australia.

I had a memorable evening meal here. After stupidly eating a big lunch, I went for some lighter options. The oysters with mango and jalapeno were a gorgeous start, and the terrine was particularly good. Very respectful, polite service, friendly, and attentive without me feeling at all bothered. Nice decor and interesting art on the walls. I hadn't eaten Sturia Oscietra caviar before, but this was a special ocassion, so I splashed out. And I wasn't disapppointed. It was sensational - the kind of thing that makes you close your eyes and groan with each mouthful. The smoked sour cream was a lovely addition, though I went lightly with it to best enjoy the amazing melt-in-the-mouth feeling and complex flavour of the caviar. Without the aditional cost of the caviar, the prices were quite reasonable considering the quality of the food and service. I only wish I'd had enough appetite left for desert. Can't wait to return and try some of the heavier dishes.

Great food, excellent service. Consistently good. Will be back again soon.
