Los mejores restaurantes de alta cocina en St Kilda East

If you enjoy the slightly unusual with an Aussie influence then this is the restaurant for you - we really enjoyed the food, it was an unforgettable night The only two downers that don’t relate to the food were 1. We didn’t have any dedicated waiting staff so didn’t get to develop any repartee / relationship which often enhances the night. The sommelier young man was the exception and therefore great … we had little conversations with him during the wine selection times …. He was great - having said that there was lots of serving staff 2. in the past we had heard (and was looking forward) to going into a real garden to show some of the produce used so quite disappointing to be lead to an enclosed box out the back either lots of little standing tables for guests

I celebrated an early Christmas dinner with my husband to cap off a challenging year. Our waiters and waitresses were uniformly friendly, well-informed and well-trained. It remains a consistent delight to have celebration meals at Donovan's. Well done for maintaining such excellent standards.

We love how flavourful all the dishes were and the atmosphere was amazing!

As usual, Pure South delivered a very good dining experience Great table with river views and excellent food and wine The wine list has some gems with bottle age at very reasonable prices Service was a little challenged due to the number of diners arriving together but no issue once the initial rush was dealt with Highly recommended

Fabulous Portuguese food experience, good wine selection. The staff were warm, friendly, informative but not intrusive. Great night celebrating our Anniversary.
