This largely hidden gem exists in the sleepy suburb of Mitcham along the Belgrave line and is sure…read moreto be Mitcham's best beer bar. It seems like a lot of passion went into this place and the people (person?) behind it executed a proper craft beer hall with some fine selection of craft beer from around the world and Victoria specifically. I guess that the owners there are somehow into (the relatively niche) imperial stouts as there will always be some kind of imperial stout on the menu. They provide all the cool bar games (CAH anyone?) in addition to a pool table and a lot of stuff that will also keep the little monsters busy. Very simple bar snack options are provided but any outside food can be ordered-in and menus for local venues (just downstairs or across the road) are provided - so please consider also supporting these small local businesses too. Overall a fine effort which is carefully hidden from the public, I would argue it's worth making your way over from downtown for a sampling - preferably one of the massive 10p paddles if you dare

This is a spacious restaurant in a more quiet corner of Box Hill. Foodwise it is quite decent. My…read moreseafood tofu stew is quite tasty, though only has bits of shrimps & clam.

Well this place was a lovely surprise! A last minute decision to eat out on a Friday night led us…read moreto our first (of many I hope!) visit to Towoo. Each table has an adjustable exhaust fan that comes down if you choose to get your food cooked at the table (and really... why else are you here?!). Once food is ordered, along comes a plethora of sides (kimchi etc) and the portable grill with VERY hot coals! So toasty on a cold Melbourne winter's night. We ordered 2 types of steak with a side of vegetables - all grilled right before our eyes. The staff were attentive and friendly, and one server in particular was really sweet and told us his story of moving from Korea to be a chef in Melbourne. He spoke with such passion, it really was heart warming. This enthusiasm was evident in the food - it really was a tasty meal, with plenty of sides, condiments and sauces to enjoy. I can't wait to return with a table full of friends!

Very nice decoration and environment. Staffs are attentive. We had the premium Wagyu BBQ set which…read morethe staff will cook for you at the table. It's really tasty as we haven't had this grade of beef since came back to Australia from Tokyo. Because of the friendly environment, many people went with family with kids, it was a bit too noisy. This was why the missing one star. By the way, booking prior is highly recommended as it is very popular.

We had been searching for a Southeast Asian restaurant in Melbourne for some time that served food…read morewith genuine spice (when requested). Went to Flavours of Mekong on the recommendation of a friend. Venue is pleasant, features nice decor with a very welcoming host, Francis.  Menu was quite varied with dishes from many Southeast Asian countries. We chose the Phat Kee Mao and the Chilli Prawns, a signature dish, requesting extra spice. Both were served promptly and presented well. The Phat Kee Mao was a little on the small side, but the flavours were genuine, spicy and just what we were after!  Very satisfying experience overall and next time we are in the area we will be sure to drop in again.
