Seafood Linguini is the bomb, and the tiramisu is a must try!Great ambiance and service! Never had a bad night here!
This place has nice decor and very very impressive food. For breakfast try the pancakes or the smoked fish dish.
Good coffee. Good peeps. My lunchtime fav! Updated menu - you have to get the tagliatelle. Simply amazing. :)
Definitely the best cafe in St K. Delicious breakkys, fab lunches and perfect coffee!
Great indoor salt water pool right on the board walk. I love to watch the sunset over the ocean while in the steamy Spa!
Screen can be difficult to see over everyone's heads. But otherwise really good. Look at deals.com etc for cheaper tickets
Great mix of St.Kilda locals of all ages. Mod Hispanic food, wood oven, BBQ pit, pitchers of wine & cocktails, 17 beers on tap, outdoor seating
The garlic king prawns are huge and so good. The mud crab gumbo with mussels is spectacular. The empty shell bowl causes other diners' food envy
The wine is varied and available by the glass - and you’ll be dipping into it if you plan on eating, as the wait is usually a half hour or so. Mind you, the surrounds are as pleasant as they come.
Try the "Wet Dish", a daily meat braised in the oven and served in a terracotta dog's bowl (sort of) with some veg thrown in to cook in the stocky-braising juices. You'll thanks us.
A Melbourne institution if there ever was one, it’s perched right on St Kilda beach, weaving a relaxed beach house vibe with a dining experience that epitomises premium.
Enjoy a coffee (I like mine with Bonsoy - a good soyabean milk goes really well with espresso... from coffee beans) while you peruse a copy of The Wheeler magazine
Grab a growler!! 1.8ltrs of beer of the week to take home! Awesome!!
Owner/manager Nico offers the most amazing service, making the inevitable wait for your orders worth it!
Most restaurants do a t-bone steak with chips and salad, or linguini marinara. Very few do them this well. Donovan's walks the fine line between high-end and comfort food with delectably good taste.
Pretty much every flavor here is top notch. My tip. Get or try them all. Free taste tests too!
The plum jam doughnuts are the true taste of Europe and old St Kilda. Best cakes on Acland St, no argument, shut the gate, amen etc.
There are reviews on how good the kugelhouph is in the window. Believe all of them. (there's more chocolate in a slice from the big one, rather than the baby kugel).
The coffee coming out of their syneso 4-cupper unit is heaven sent. A long black has aromas of molasses and tastes of toffee, chocolate and sweet spices.
Venue looks great, food ok, but not fantastic. Didn't fancy the bread. Chili scrambled eggs were good.
Oh heavens to Betsy, the salami platter is full of four types of salami. Do try it.
Food was fast and delicious, service was excellent and pretty cheap too! Margaritas strong enough to knock out a horse...
