Amazing experience. Fantastic food, value for money, great cocktails, great ambient, excellent staff and service. Highly recommended.

New favourite go to In Melbourne for family or for business . Food is delicious and caters for vegetarian & pescetarian . Fresh Asian flavours - fast service but not rushed . Great vibe & music

If you want a review of the steaks at Meat Maiden, scroll on. I didn’t order steak…which is perhaps akin to going to Red Rooster and not ordering chicken. I went for the miso cauliflower, perhaps not the first choice of most diners. But I made our reservation because I knew my mega-carnivorous husband would love it. And he did. So yes, the food was excellent. Go for the food. But waaaaaaaay better than the food were the staff. Unlike the current trend for waitstaff to make it obvious they’d rather be anywhere than taking your food order, MM staff all genuinely looked like they wanted to be there. They were joyful, engaging and had each other’s backs. They worked together like a well oiled machine and it was fun and heart warming to watch. I’d go back for the chips. For the crème caramel, for the cauliflower and the donut. My husband would go back for the burnt ends and the pork belly and scallops. But most of all, we’d go back for Nathan and the rest of the staff.

Attentive friendly staff, delicious food and a very relaxed vibe

Food service was a little slow between courses. At one stage 6 of had empty wine glasses despite paying $100 a head for the wine and having to order 2 bottles to get a drink
