My friend and I each had 1/4 chicken but I had chips and Greek salad, she had 2 baked potatoes, roast pumpkin, peas and gravy. Both were delicious and well cooked. The restaurant was clean, the staff were friendly. If I had to be picky the only thing I could say was that the baked potato was a little under done. Oh and very reasonably priced.

Lilydale Chicken is one of those signs. You trust it's fresh, you trust it's tasty. Those who come in seem to prefer take away, and on a hot night such as this, the place is only hotter with the charcoal a burning. The chicken is good and quickly brought out. Not so quick that you question it but not so slow that you forget what you ordered. The TV plays game shows, no one watches. The people behind the counter value their hard work over their customer service skills.

Haven't been to one of these outlets in ages! I went in with very minimal expectations as previous…read moretimes in one of these chains (including Kobe jones) was $$$ and shit! Nvrtheless I found myself going with the flow and reserving my judgement after the outcome. We ordered the rib eye surf turf and the scotch. Rib eye came out first and just watching how effortless the knife cut through it I knew I was in for a treat. It was like carving through butter! Didn't need to cut more like a glide w/ the knife across the steak! No excessive juices / blood flowing through to plate. All of which was held within the meat itself! Medium rare was done to perfection!! FINALLY a place that does med rare and burnt / chargrilled burnt bits of edges! No sauce or anything else needed! First piece went in my mouth and before I knew it melted and gone! It was amazing! The scotch was a backup in case rib eye was shit and still hungry! I found myself in trouble! The scotch 450g was excellent!! And I was getting full! Nice problem to have :) the scotch was done equally to perfection with burnt bits and no thawed out freezer after taste!! It was soooo good! I finished it with no tired jaw or meat fibre left on the hotplate. Overall... I think it is the chef / cook that is at this outlet that is gd. I've been to the others and ... meeh.... Will definitely return! thank you for restoring my faith in Melb steak! I've been let down by the Steak Ministry, Meat n Wine and some other so called steak places which charge an arm n a leg for under par steak! I've avoided steak in Melbourne since these sh$tty experiences. am yet to try San Telmo and Meatmother. Oh... no 5 star as I have not encountered anything like the steak I had at Wolfgang's in New York! OMG!! Hunger pains again! haha

Around the Warrandyte area on a Monday night, there are limited restaurants open for dinner…read more(without having to travel too far), so I have been coming to the Grand Hotel for quite some time now. The food is great, and is definitely a few notches above your standard 'pub grub'. The ribs with BBQ sauce are brilliant as they are slow cooked, the meat is super tender and just falls off the bone. On the current menu there is also an Asian inspired pork belly salad which is delicious, with just the right combination of sweet and sour flavours. The chefs here seem to have a good handle on how to cook a steak - when you order it rare for example, that's exactly how it arrive, something that seems to be a bit hit and miss at many other pubs I frequent. The meals are a little on the pricey side, but are good quality produce and serving sizes are more than sufficient. Aside from great food, and being open 7 days a week, the service is always great. All of the waiters are very friendly and attentive, but in particular, it's always a pleasure to be greeted by the smiling face of the waiter Nikki, who goes out of her way to ensure that guests are made welcome and that they have a pleasant dining experience. Be warned - the restaurant is often booked out, even on weeknights, so it's strongly recommended to book ahead. The only other downside is that often the specials sell out very early in the day/night, but there are plenty of other menu options to choose from.

I went here of a lunch time and although it was fairly quiet, the food was delicious. The standout dish was a stuffed (swimmer?) crab ravioli - big pieces of ravioli with generous fillings and a wickedly rich cream sauce. The dish was perfectly balanced and I'm salivating right now just remembering it. It's nice to dine 'al fresco' during the summertime and Pop is a great choice. The service was great and it was moderately priced at around $30 for a main. Looking forward to visiting this summer.

The last place I had a grilled chicken burger was Nandos, and I am going to put it out there that I thought this was better. Looking through their instagram I really wasn't expecting much. 1. because they only serve grilled chicken burgers and 2. No one is really posting about them or commenting that there are quality burgers coming out of this place. Home to Roost isn't the sort of place you can go and sit down for a burger, it is a small shop with 2-3 seats, although there is a huge park across the road that could easily become a good picnic spot for the Home to Roost customers. I don't know about the rest of the burgers, but this was on the specials board and is definitely worth a try - it oozes flavour and is unexpectedly awesome.
