Kwafood & Mixue Springvale - Food VIC

Perfect B.P.M I’m always on the lookout for places that not only satisfy a sweet tooth but also elevate dessert to an art form. My recent visit to Dessert by Night in Springvale left me truly impressed. First, the sticky date pudding. It was simply sublime. The pudding itself was perfectly moist, with a rich, caramelized sweetness that wasn’t overpowering. What really stood out to me was the balance—the date flavor was present, but subtle, letting the warmth of the butterscotch sauce shine through. Paired with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream, the contrast of hot and cold was the perfect ending to each bite. Next up were the strawberry crêpes, and they were nothing short of delightful. The crêpes were paper-thin and soft, yet had just the right amount of bite to hold together a filling of fresh, juicy strawberries. The sweetness of the strawberries paired beautifully with the light dusting of powdered sugar and a drizzle of strawberry sauce. Every bite was refreshing, light, and full of flavor. This is exactly how a dessert should feel—balanced and not too heavy. Finally, the banana and walnut hotcake was a revelation. The texture of the hotcake was spot on—fluffy and tender, with a nice crispness on the edges. The bananas, caramelized to perfection, added a lovely richness, while the walnuts gave it that necessary crunch. The drizzle of maple syrup brought it all together, making each bite a harmony of sweet, nutty, and fruity goodness. Dessert by Night exceeded my expectations with these dishes. The flavors were well-executed, the textures were spot on, and the overall experience was one that any chef—or dessert lover—would appreciate. If you’re in Springvale and looking for a place that truly respects the art of dessert, this spot should be at the top of your list.

Republic Of Dandenong VN Food Street is a hidden treasure in Springvale which is serving up some of the most delicious traditional Vietnamese street food around. Tucked away in a deep corner of the Springvale Centre just off Springvale Road (the smallest of the 3 shopping centres in Springvale), it seems that this place only known to those who venture away from the more mainstream eateries in the larger centres. The kitchen is run by a team of older Vietnamese ladies and you get the feeling they have spent their lives in a kitchen; whether thats at work or at home preparing meals for large families. They carefully tend to everything cooking on the stoves, putting love into each dish and serving each customer with a warm smile. The bain-maries are carefully laid out so every is organized into neat and tidy portions, while the rice paper roll station is filled with fresh ingredients of vibrant green lettuce, herbs and meats. Everything here is made from scratch and everything is put out to be sold in small batches so it stays fresh. Their menu offers a variety of braised dishes, such as beef, chicken, fish, tofu and vegetables. You can also find a variety of traditional soups which start at just $3 for a small and $5 for large. The homemade steamed rice rolls filled with chicken and mushroom, and also, pork and shrimp, served with fried shallots and dipping sauce are highly recommended ($6). For $10, you can get a large plate of white rice and three sides. The homemade glutinous rice balls in ginger syrup are gooey and fresh, sold for just $3 in a tub of 2 mung bean filled rice balls and plenty of small plain ones with coconut milk on the side. Although located in a walkthrough arcade, it offers seating to its customers. To the left of the store is a communal table, where you can quietly sit, eat and watch the shoppers go by while feeling like you’re still right there in the middle of it all or you can start up a conversation with some of the other friendly diners. A fantastic feature for a place selling street food! When we first googled this place, we found nothing. It’s not even listed in the yellow or white pages! So here we are finally putting it on the map. As a friendly Pilipino lady we met today at the communal table who has travelled to Vietnam 8 times told us “this place makes the best street food around here!” We couldn’t agree more!

Vanessa Wong-Lee Hasnt opened too long and a wide range of dishes. Food is good, they also have $9 lunch specials Hu Tieu mi tom has a generous portion. Pork is slightly tough and thick with a pork smell but overall well made Com tam with Meatball Meatballs looked to be Baked with a thin crispy outside. The meat is not was fried but good flavour with the meat loaf, egg and rice. Look forward to trying more on their menu

蘇翔 Very good restaurant hidden away from the main block of Springvale. I was lucky being taken there by my friend. Unlike those "well known" Vietnam food, pho, the dish served here are way more elaborated with more variety. And guess what, its more affordable than the restaurants on the main street!

Tyson G I had an excellent experience at the Waltzing Matilda Pub thanks to Dylan. From the moment I walked in, he was warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive. He has that perfect mix of professionalism and easygoing charm that makes you feel right at home. Dylan clearly knows his stuff — whether it’s recommending the right drink, offering menu suggestions, or just keeping the atmosphere upbeat, he does it all effortlessly. Even when the place got busy, he stayed calm, friendly, and on top of everything.

MEE KKE A friend recommended this place. There are a lot of customers. The food is delicious. The beef is more delicious than the chicken. You can choose the soup. There is beef soup and vegetable soup. Serve with lots of vegetables, bean sprouts, and basil leaves.

Justin Davies Amazing new local Indian restaurant that’s just amazing! Both food and service is five star! Shall definitely be back

Geraldine Smallacombe The best bar/grill in the north! This is an amazing gem in Strathmore, but it feels like youre in the city. The food was amazing, we had the chips (which are advertised as the Worlds Best and they did not disappoint), prawn bites, wagyu skewers, pork belly, lobster roll, basque cheesecake and tiramisu. The menu descriptions are brief, but every dish was perfection. Service and cocktails top notch - try the French Tart.

Christopher S As a wog boy who loves his charcoal meat I can confidently say this is the best gyros lamb I’ve ever had, sadly it’s even better than what I make at home myself. Really exceptional meat. Service was excellent. Staff super friendly. Couldn’t ask for anything more. Everything was fresh and tasty, large portions (we ordered extra meat) and super delicious. The lamb melted in your mouth. My only minor feedback is the chips could have used 30 secs longer in the fryer to crisp up a bit more but honestly I was here for the meat not the chips. lol Amazing food. We will definitely be back 100 percent.
