“I have been meaning to try this restaurant for years. In summary, amazing food amazing service and felt like I was transported back to Japan eating here. The service would be the best I have experienced in Melbourne, attentive, always …”

“I have been in Melbourne for about 20 years and have seen the Indian community grow from strength to strength. However there are odd ones out there that should be called out, hence the review. The place lives up to its name, as the owner/manager successfully treats its customers like ‘IDIOTS’ Though the place serves average quality and overpriced food, it expects its customers to have read and memorised a RULE BOOK of conditions that gets used against us ‘idiots’. For example, a polite request for a fresh plate in between entree and mains is met with a stern rebuke from a very inhospitable looking manager/owner who reminds us ‘idiots' to read the rule book that states that PLATES WILL NOT BE CHANGED! You are likely to face her wrath and dismissal if you make the mistake of giving feed back. Though you are expected to pay unadulterated top dollar for their "service/disservice", the experience they provided was adulterated with racism, unfair judgement and contempt! DO NOT GO if you are looking for a relaxed evening, particularly if you are brown skinned as you run the risk of leaving with a bitter taste and sore head & heart due to the impact of “rule book” that gets thrown at you!”

“Wow! Small place but an incredible find! Was lucky enough to call up for a table and they fit us in! The service is the best we’ve experienced in hospitality in a long long time! The staff / management / chefs went out of their way with a pizza order and truly made us feel special. Came right home to write this review. You don’t find both delicious food AND exceptional customer service in the same sentence these days. Thank you so much.”

“Loved the taste of the food, the wait staff were friendly, and the restaurant atmosphere was very much a vibe. My only critique would be the portions of the food was smaller than most sichuan places. Two mains between two people at other Sichuan restaurants would more than suffice, but we ended up getting three dishes and it still felt a tad short in quantity for the price. Otherwise, the food was delicious.👌”

“Food was good traditional homestyle italian, our waiters were incredibly friendly and welcoming. I had their special buratta focaccia and it was amazing but a little bit too oily.”

40 Sackville St, Collingwood VIC 3066, Australia

“This place was recommended by a friend, and we are glad that we came! We ordered the paddle to sample their 13 taps, tacos, and nachos. We ordered guacamole and hot sauce on the side. The beers were perfect with the tacos. Everything about the experience was amazing. Super friendly staff, and great music. We will definitely come back for more!”

“Great selection of pies and other pastries at an affordable price. Great taste using actual meat chunks. The kransky was also great and the cinnamon doughnuts were fresh.”

“ORDERED: 🥮  House-made spiced cottage cheese: pickle, salmon roe, tart & burnt honey ($5.00 each) 🐟  Kingfish Umai: Fermented chilli, whipped cod roe, apple ponzu gel, rice cracker ($25.00) 🐏 Malay Lamb Shoulder: Kipfler potato, baby carrot, spiced raita ($28.00) 🐓 Satay Spiced Whole Chicken: Fermented garlic honey, tomato sambal ($38.00) 🍚 Small jasmine rice ($4.00) 🍈 Coconut Sago: Passionfruit syrup, lychee jelly, melon ($13.00) I spent $65.50 here. REVIEW: The entrees were mid at Jamu, but it was good at managing my expectations so that I was blown away by the mains. The dessert was a great way to finish and wrap up the meal. Good strat! My favourite dish was the Satay spiced whole chicken. It had a delicious smoky charcoal taste that really permeated the skin. Herby, slightly sweet - it was absolutely delicious. Chicken was juicy as well! Although, as with all chickens, when you get closer to the bone there was less flavour. Would've loved a little jus on the side to keep the flavour going, but otherwise the burnt lemon helped a little. Service was great. At the start, I appreciated how the waiter was mindful enough to move our table. Originally, our table of 2 was seated right next to a larger table of 10+. However, our waiter offered to move us behind the screen so that we could have a little more peace during our meal, and didn't have to fight with the neighbour table's noise (they weren't bad). Also thankful that the waitress talked us down from getting a large jasmine rice ($7.00). The small rice was perfect and enough for the mains we had. Big shout out to her proactiveness! Also grateful that they didn't charge a credit card surcharge. as well. 👍 👍 The reasons for the -1: 1. Want more salmon roe on the House-made spiced cottage cheese. It adds a unique salty flavour with a great texture, otherwise it tasted just of... cheese. I didn't taste the burnt honey, didn't taste the tart. 2. Would appreciate if they carved the chicken for us. I enjoyed the process of getting intimate with my chicken once off for a casual dinner, but for a nicer dinner this is a big no. 3. The coconut sago was far better when the melon had melted towards the end. It was missing that little bit of liquid, because the sago is a little dry and plain otherwise.”

“This is my favourite place in Melbourne. It is my go-to for interstate visitors to give them something to remember when they fly home. It is always consistently good. The food is often Italian and French inspired, but definitely not limited to. They’ve explored with dishes from around the world. It’s always delicious and the cook times are always perfect. The food is creatively complex and yet simple in what they serve up at times- genius. The pastas and sourdough are made in house. The flavours are always seasonal. The vibe of the place matches the food. Heidi is a great host and owner. The staff are all familiar faces who genuinely love to share the experience with you and treat you like family. Personal highlights - hand squeezed ‘gin and juice’ - the wine recommendations - the sourdough - Gorgonzola gnocchi / squid ink pasta - the steak sandwich (was a covid-temporary and missed fixture) - the fries - anything sardine related - the jazz band when Sunday dine-in lunches were a thing.”
