A very personal dining experience was enjoyed here. We had a great Christmas special 2 course lunch at $52, including 1 x wine. But could not resist the third course desert as well plus coffee.
The entree includes 4 items with my favourite, the squid meal, which is an amazing must have dish.
We chose Baramundy fish for main course, beautifully cooked. I don't like frozen fish and this tastes like fresh caught, not frozen. Yumm.
Desert was a delightful Apple Crumble with ice cream, followed by coffee.
The two course option is good value but adding the optional third course made for a beautiful Christmas break up lunch.
Highly recommended 👌
It's Christmas let your hair down for an intimate experience.
Decent place, great service, good food
Rotary Christmas Party. 43 members. Food Christmas Turkey and Barramundi.
50/50 service. Good standard and service. We will use this venue again.
A very pleasant mid week dinner where the staff were eager to ensure an enjoyable experience. The steaks and barramundi were delicious. We were even spoiled with a few added extras. A quiet atmosphere with old world charm.
First time at Oliver's Restaurant. Family gathering & it was just lovely. We all agreed that it was a most pleasurable experience. Food was delicious, service was first class & the venue was just great. Thanks to everyone for looking after us so well.
Lovely traditional restaurant with comfortable chairs, tables that don't wobble, high quality glassware and proper cloth napkins that the attentive staff lay across your lap when you sit down. The dinner menu isn't extensive, but some items change every day, and everything is properly cooked and presented. The wines I tried were very good, too.
Only two things detract from this dining bliss, one minor, one major:
- bowls are for soup, pasta and dog food, not lamb or fish dishes. Cease this token trendiness and serve them on a plate, as they're supposed to be.
- unfortunately, the "cappuccino" was as last century as the decor. The decor is fine, it suits the period style of the place, but that coffee had no place in 21st century Melbourne.
Oliver's is as good as it gets among hotel restaurants. Impeccable service, professional staff, comfortable surrounds, consistently great meals, good value and a Hotel Manager who is always visible and provides high quality customer service experiences. Visited after COVID restriction easing expecting some comprimises on their high standards but they were on point as awlats. Well done!
Thank you to all the staff at Oliver's for making my 80th birthday celebration very special. A delicious meal, friendly helpful staff and pleasant ambience. All who attended commented on what a lovely lunch it had been. After the lunch we were not rushed to leave the restaurant, like some places.
