“ Without a doubt one of the best places in Melbourne. I was fortunate enough to be able to celebrate my engagement here and we were so humbled and grateful with the service we received. My partner and I visited and had their Tuesday Dinner special which was so good and value for money. We loved the food so much my partner and we came back again within weeks to have the tasting menu. Immaculate service and immaculate food, could not recommend this place enough. ”

“ Phenomenal! This is a neighbourhood gem unlike any other. The service is warm and inviting, the wine list is carefully curated with brilliant options, and the food is divine. ”

“ The perfect date night spot! From the moment we walked in, we loved everything about the space. The food was absolutely delicious, we couldn’t resist ordering three desserts after our mains because everything sounded too good to pass up (and trust me, they did not disappoint!). Wonderful service, this place is a must-try for everyone! ”

“ Had a really good dinner at Winston’s in Black Rock. We had the steak frites and the steak was cooked perfectly to order.. yum.. and the chips were nice also. The broccolini side was so nice and definitely the go for a decent side. The wines were absolute winners.. obviously an excellent selection of wines to choose from and the beers too, if you choose to get on the beers, so to speak! The service from the staff was outstanding, friendly and beyond efficient. Congratulations to everyone at Winston’s for fantastic food and service.. we will be coming back and recommending Winston’s to friends and family.. ”

“ The place is very good and worth a visit. Definitely gets crowded after 7pm. Good location with available parking , was easy to park for a booking at 5:30pm, Service is good, Cocktails and food is great too, Total bill for 4 people came to 370$, this is 5 cocktails , 3 mains , and 6 appetisers/starters On the pictures are some dishes I remember: beef tartare, zucchini appetiser, lobster roll and crab croquette. Amaretto sour and another sour cocktail ( first one under sour section) However few things that could be better: 1. For a small place , the music was SO loud, making people nearly yell to be heard, I was not able to hear my friend sitting next to me , this has prompt us to leave much earlier as we simply could not have any chat at all. 2. Cheeseburger we ordered came medium rare patty. This was disappointing as we were not warned, nor we were asked how we would like it to be cooked. So do not assume it is cooked, you have to ask yourself. 3. The way we were positioned the sun was hitting us right in the face , while place had a curtain , staff was closing and opening it again and again. Would be reasonable to have it closed when sun goes down as I have spent half dinner covering just my face with my hand. Overall would definitely recommend if above is taken into consideration. ”

“ Was amazing food and the decor is very nice! The service was exemplary as well. My partner and I only thought it was a bit quiet (not many patrons dining) and so when it’s quieter like that they could probably afford to turn the music up a little and then as it gets busier start to turn it down slightly. Add a little more ambiance! Otherwise an amazing dinner/experience! Thanks for having us! ”

“ Rushed out and drove 1 hour when I heard gordon ramsay posted a pic of his visit here. Started with their little bites which were good but not wow, loved their spanner crab but crumpet was not crumping. Wouldnt say it is the best lobster roll like the others said. Entrees took a while to come out, but whilst the tartare had a unique kick and burrata was refreshing, good but not wow. oysters 5/5 spanner crab crumpets 4/5 lobster roll 3.25/5 anchovy toast brioche 4.25/5 beef tartare 3.25/5 burrata peach heirloom tomato 3.75/5 wagyu cheeseburger 4.25/5 rib eye 3/5 3.5/5 salty but yummy heh wine 4/5 cocktails 3.5/5 Loved how the mains each came with fries, I am a sucker for wagyu cheeseburgers which they did well, but their hyped rib eye lacked that fatty juiciness despite cooking it medium rare. Fries were overly salty but i didnt mind. We pretty much drank that peppercorn and bearnaise sauce. I wasnt happy with my drink but it wasn’t a bad drink, but if the owner could’ve taken the feedback in a professional way without dismissing my feelings, I would’ve felt at peace in the most beautiful sunsetting city-coded bistro next to the beach. I would come back for the steak nights and for the good views, but service was rather uncomfortable than disappointing. Will never hate on the efforts and creativity of this restaurant bc I know how hard they work and plan these openings but I hope my next visit will be more warm welcoming. I made a careful observation and it seemed we were the only ethnic people, but I’m pretty sure it’s because I poorly expressed my drink tasting like “goon” which was wrong choice of words which I did apologise for after he reacted to my comment “that’s not something you should say”. I like my alcohol, but I just wasn’t feeling that drink but after that interaction, I felt super uncomfortable and many times, not attended to. The sommelier’s were all super nice and attentive, but when the owner is not accomodating, it ruins the whole experience. Seems that it wasn’t only us who seemed to have a bad night as a few reviews were left on the Friday we dined 17/01/2025. Follow more restaurant reviews on my food blogger on instagram @delishdump ”

“ Had my birthday lunch here with friends and had a really lovely time! The food was delicious. I enjoyed everything, but really liked the lobster roll, beef tatare and ribeye steak. Really glad the staff talked me into getting the ribeye instead of the regular steak frites. Service was great, staff were attentive and nice. Vibe of the place was good too. Highly recommend a visit and I look forward to eating here again. ”
