Bluestone American BBQ features a Latin American spin on authentic low and slow traditions from the US BBQ belt. Chef Alvaro Malel draws inspiration from his Uruguayan heritage, and his passion for cuisines from both American continents to reimagine smoked classics like Yearling Beef Short Rib with chimichurri, and Pit-Braised Pulled Lamb with salsa criolla and arepas.His talent for bringing together the best of North and South American food traditions has been a drawcard for diners across Melbourne since the restaurant opened seven years ago. He credits the success of Bluestone to his Uruguayan culture and heritage, which is all about “food, family and fire…BBQ is a feature of all my best memories. There’s no better way to celebrate milestones, or to just kick back and have fun with the people you love. Bluestone has always been about creating that experience for other people.”

Boasting a killer menu and a super cool vibe, this place is known for a cocktail, feast or an intimate date night.

Casa Chino exceeded our expectations! We celebrated my birthday with a romantic dinner and were blown away🎂. The service was top-notch, and the set menu was incredible - every dish impressed us. What really stood out, though, was the team's kindness in accommodating our dietary requirements, which was truly appreciated. A perfect spot for a special night out! Our favorite was the Fish BAO and the Cumcumber Salad, definitely visiting again soon 💞
