Since it is vegan, I stopped in to grab an original burger and fries to eat by the Yarra. The shop had fun music playing and the staff were friendly. The burger and fries were delicious and it was the perfect first lunch in Melbourne! My husband and I returned 4 times during our trip and loved everything we had! The funniest thing to me is that my husband asked them the origin of the name of the shop and discovered that it had NOTHING to do with Lord of the Flies! Rather, the owner of the shop loved Lord of the Ring and so that is where the inspiration was derived. I almost subtracted one star for the missed opportunity - Lord of the Onion Rings (kidding!). This place was great and everything seemed to be made to order. It took about 5 min or less to get my food, which gave me plenty of time to people watch at Flinders Station!

I love that Grill'd has so many options- including those that are diet and macro friendly. I typically opt for the Hot Bird burger and chicken bites - so much protein for a low calorie amount. Can't recommend this enough if you're sick of eating super heavy meals all the time and want something that is lighter and healthier!

Mighty fine fried chicken!…read more Sonny's Fried Chicken & Burgers is a treat. Hidden inside the John Curtin Hotel with beaming red neon lights, it's easy to miss Sonny, if you're not looking for it. It's dark and ambient, perfect setting to jump in mouth first at the deliciousness on the menu. We ordered the white meat breast crispy fried chicken, loaded fries with cheese sauce, gravy and crispy bacon, super creamy mac 'n' cheese with macaroni American and provolone cheese sauce with crispy breadcrumbs and Sonny's burger with spicy deep-fried chicken, zesty slaw and mayo. This was a lot of food, but we wanted to try the usual suspects. I couldn't fault the crispy fried chicken, they do it well. Tasty, crispy, juicy and had lust written all over it. The loaded fries were also worth the dip, tasty and loaded with sauce, but please take note chicken lovers, your burgers come with fries too, so don't overdo it on the fries son! The mac 'n' cheese was a surprise, they weren't dry and dull like most places these days, so if you're a fan of the good old mac 'n' cheese classic, you're in for some happy times. The Sonny's burger was the real star. It's fresh, doesn't make you sleepy and completely satisfies you because it's a chicken burger done right. Perfect amount of sauce, tender chicken, right amount of crunch and it doesn't do too much that it overwhelms you. That's what I want from a chicken burger. You must order at the bar, make note, it's not table service, and the wait time can be long, however, the staff were friendly and accommodating. If you love KFC, then I highly recommend Sonny's Fried Chicken & Burgers, it's the next level, which means, it costs more. If I had to be critical, the chicken pieces and loaded fries are on the expensive side, but if you're rolling in the money, don't be shy, just go for it! One of the most enjoyable crispy chicken wonders that we have dined in, one of those places that you wished you had two stomachs for.

The kids liked their baked potatoes too. Not much good for gluten free meals, although I'm not sure whether this was because the staff were uninterested or because they do not have anything. Check the Fish & Chip shop in the block for gluten free. We eat from here a couple of times a month & enjoy it for the Chicken Schnitzel Burgers.

So when I give this…read moreplace 5 stars - I'm not saying that it's Melbourne's best sit-down restaurant - but in comparison to takeaway chicken shops which are littered throughout the suburbs of this marvellous city, this one is way up there. Firstly - starting with the fact that they use Lilydale free-range chicken, a fact which is becoming more important to people every day, not only is it good on the conscience, it's great on the palette. The chicken is always cooked deliciously, and in fact I go there for their range of salads more so than the chicken itself. I can highly recommend the Chicken & Avocado Salad, which is laced with pesto, a few sundried tomatoes and walnuts - this is a killer salad. Great quality food, average sorta price, but you can experience pretty lengthy delays between ordering and having your number called. A favourite of mine and my (now former) work colleagues - if you're in the area and have a hankerin' for some good chicken - definitely check it out.
