We have been eating here for years and it just keeps getting better and better ! Emilio and his staff are always welcoming , set menu is the way to go so you can enjoy some awesome appetisers along with the best steak I've ever eaten and such yummy desert !! Well worth every cent !!
I have to say it would have to be one of Melbs best steak place, excellent service atmosphere, the owner and staff are so friendly, its a must for anybody who appreciates quality and the prices are reasonable
Best steaks in Melbourne. Perfectly cooked & succulent meat. Thanks to all the staff for your wonderful service and friendly approach. Ohhh and the bottle of vino. �. Great to see we have the the best steak house in Melbourne in our local area. Highly recommended!!! 10x10 !!!
I've been to quite a few steakhouses in Melbourne over the years and can honestly say Ivanhoe Tavern consistently serve up the best steaks I've ever had.
Emilio and his team provide fantastic service and he always makes the time to come over and engage with his patrons.
Like most people, I enjoy a mustard or sauce with any steak, but here I make the point of enjoying the flavours and juices by just sprinkling a slight bit of salt and let my tastebuds enjoy the steak itself.
Magnifico
Would give you 10 stars if I could - the staff are so friendly and Chef came out more than once to check that we were happy with our meal. The prawns and porterhouse were both cooked to perfection and how wonderful to find a restaurant that is byo. A wonderful atmosphere and a lot of fun. Thank you so much.
Very nice steak and establishment. I liked how the owner/chef would walk around to introduce himself and see how everyone was. My steak was cooked perfectly just was not as charcoal flavoured as i would have liked. The fat was not crispy but was certainly not off putting. Maybe a little bit overpriced and the selection of beers was minimal.
The staff are very welcoming and service was great. I had the eye fillet medium rare and enjoyed every bit of it. The peppercorn sauce is hot as it should be. Most of our table had the scotch filet cooked differently and they all enjoyed their meals. The wine selection was fantastic. I’ll definitely be returning.
Emilio is a bighearted fellow. The steaks and sashliks he makes are juicy, tender, and deliciously fills the belly. Susan, the waitress, is a polite, friendly and cheerful lady. The food is always spectacular, and arrives amazingly fast, yet does not lose a single bit in quality for speed.
My partner and I have always had an
amazing time there. The cheerful atmosphere Emilio and Susan bring, the food they create, all contribute to the 5+ star rating. Thanks so much guys for the awesome experience!
Great steakhouse, the wagyu steak is a must, perfectly cooked. Full of flavour. We had a mixed platter for entrees, everything was brilliant. The sausages are a great starter. Service was great, definitely coming back.
This is one of my favorite places to go for a steak when I don't want to gamble on a new place. Know exactly what you are going to get and it's great quality at a reasonable price. Definitely worth a try.
Worth the wait post Covid, on a night celebrating myself and my partners birthday. Phenomenal service as always, Emilio's advise is always spot on with meat selection and cooking techniques. 10 stars.
Best steak house in Melbourne. Family run and owned, and it feels like your enjoying your meal just like your with family.
Had a booking for 18 people that was cancelled by another restaurant on the day due to covid.
I contacted Emilio to see if Ivanhoe Tavern would be able to cater for such a large group with only a few hours notice. Emilio was lovely to deal with and made it work under such short notice. We were served a set menu and everyone complimented the food and service. Thank you for a great evening and making it happen! We'll definitely be back.
The steak was amazing! Perfectly juicy, tender and melt in your mouth. The entree and the side salads were delicious as well. Service was outstanding from all the waiters, waitresses and the cook. Highly recommended!
Amazing as always!!! Took mum there for her birthday last week, first time back since covid and couldn’t fault it! Have been there quite a few times and not only is the food fantastic the service is always beautiful and super friendly! Lovely wait staff and chef Emilio is super friendly and makes you feel like a VIP all the time. Even gave mum a complimentary bottle of wine for her birthday. Would recommend to anyone looking for a great range or steaks (plenty to choose from) and yummy deserts! Thanks chef and team, look forward to coming again soon 🙌👌🏼🥩🍷
One of the best places for good stalls in Greater Melbourne. Quality and prepartion of the meat is excellent. Great choices for starters and desserts.
The staff and chef are really nice and friendly, giving a lot of attention to each patron.
