Studio Amaro - Food VIC

Chris Vegans and Foodies are definitely first class citizens here. The menu has internationally inspired flavours, from sweet through to savoury and both hot and cold dishes as well. Coffee is great. Smoothies and Bowls are amazing. A great spot for breakfast or lunch. I’ll definitely be back to try more of their menu…. and I’ve tried a lot of it already!

AM AZ One of those cafés that just gets everything right. Incredible coffee, genuinely warm and friendly service, and a lovely seating area that makes you want to stay longer. Easily one of the best small cafés in the area—I always enjoy my time here. ☕✨

George Slavchev My company held our Christmas Party at the Mount Erica Hotel last night. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted to a perfectly prepared private room and very welcoming staff. The food was very delicious. From the starters, the Leek & Gruyère Croquettes were my favourite — they were packing so much flavour. For mains, we had Rotisserie Chicken and Sirloin. The chicken was perfectly cooked — very juicy and oh so delicious! The Sirloin was very rare (not a medium rare, as listed) and a few of my colleagues couldn’t eat it at all. I was fine with it, but could definitely see why some people were having issues with it. If it was cooked to medium rare, as advertised, it would’ve been a hit. There was chips, which was just perfect too. The dessert was insane — Chocolate Mouse. It was perfect and not too rich. It was the only thing I took a photo of. All throughout the evening, the service was outstanding. There were two staff members, who looked after us, and a whole army of staff during service time. Every single person was really friendly, very professional, and just enjoyable to be around. We had a fantastic night! I’d definitely recommend Mount Erica Hotel both as a dinner venue and as a private party location.

Monique P a very elegant night!

Sasha Borozdina My evening at Rasputin was absolutely wonderful. Everything here — from the atmosphere and interior to the food and service — is made with heart and soul. Each dish reminded me of home-cooked meals filled with care and tradition. The director and the entire team clearly put their passion into every detail, creating not just a restaurant, but a true cultural experience. I had a lovely conversation with the director and could feel how deeply they care about every guest and the spirit of the place. I truly hope that one day Rasputin will open in Brisbane — it would be such a gift for the city and a chance for more people to experience this warmth and authenticity.

Rube Walked past here so many times and SO glad that we finally decided to stop by. Food was INCREDIBLE! Service was one of the best we’ve ever had, we instantly felt welcomed. We will 1000% be back here!

trent lawson The food was well served and delicious. Expect the restaurant to be busy on weekends, make sure you have a booking. You will have food envy if you dont get the soulffle

Nass Antoun Amazing food, incredible atmosphere, and flawless service. Everything we ordered was packed with flavour and beautifully done. Suzie Q delivers an unforgettable experience; easily one of the best nights out I’ve had in Melbourne. Can’t wait to come back.

Danielle Bernobic From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming—nothing was too much trouble, and service was flawless throughout. The food was simply exceptional: beautifully presented, full of flavor, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients and real care. Every dish we tried was a highlight in its own way. The atmosphere perfectly complements the experience—stylish, relaxed, and inviting, making it ideal for both a special occasion or a relaxed meal. This is the kind of place that makes you want to return again and again. Truly amazing food, amazing staff, and an all-round fantastic dining experience. Highly recommended!
