"Abacus bar & kitchen is a cafe concept that could and should be replicated and enjoyed all around the world.It has embraced the 'all day dining' model with a breakfast menu that transforms into snacks and evening dining making it an option for any mood or customer. It also has a fully licensed drinks list and al fresco seating to suit the late afternoon spritz while people watching as one of Melbourne's busiest strips passes you by.All of this inside one of Melbourne's best interior spaces, Abacus provides a casual dining experience to remember.The food is good and honest, it has broken out of the traditional mould for opening hours, the customer service is elevated, sustainability is deeply rooted in their ethos and it's a design-driven space that you want to be in. These business characteristics harmoniously work together and the success of them shows in the lines of people waiting for tables to enjoy a meal here."- future food

We've recently started using Mt Erica as our local. At 5pm it's great for families with young kids. great food options for adults and kids. Food is terrific and consistent and served fast. The Roast Chicken and Chilli Crab Spaghetti are particular highlights. The Chocolate Semi-freddo was a perfect way to finish a meal. Highly recommend.

Raw tuna in crispy wonton is an outstanding dish - great combination of quality fresh ingredients, flavour & texture. And the fish curry (barramundi?) was again, the result of skilled perfection. The food is exactly WHY we are happy to pay for food, the way it is supposed to be cooked - by people who know what they are doing! Thankyou.
