The three-course feast fit for a king kicked off with a Grosvenor Tasting Board, complete with freshly sliced wagyu bresaola, San Daniele prosciutto, Capocollo, Finocchiona salami, Calabrese salami, 24- month aged parmesan, smoked scamorza, bocconcini and mixed Sicilian olives served with wood fired house-baked rosemary and sea salt focaccia.
For mains the Beef Wellington was delicous - eye fillet wrapped in buttery puff pastry, mushroom duxelles and San Daniele prosciutto. Served with cauliflower puree, a drizzling of porcini jus, and serve with a side of chargrilled broccolini and bitter leaf salad to complete your meal.
They have even got you sorted for dessert with saucy rich chocolate pudding, and finished with sweet but tarty rhubarb jam and crunchy hazelnut praline.
Last Sunday I ordered the Mother's Day special for two and wow what a treat. From start to finish it could not be faulted. A beautifully presented box with flower and welcoming letter was packed with care and very generous serves of what was promised on the menu. Everything was delicious and cooked to perfection. From the time I placed the order through to the designated pick-up time the staff were friendly helpful and professional and I thank you for making the day so easy to celebrate with my mum. We loved it and look forward to doing it again soon.

The Grosvenor a high-end pub specialising in beef. You can choose your steak from a list of various cut and quality, whether regular or dry-aged. We started our meal with the grilled prawns, the dish was really nice and the shells were crispy and you can even eat them if you want to. For mains, we had the scotch fillet and prawn spaghetti, both were amazing!
With such a motto as “The Meat Experts”, we expected nothing less at The Grosvenor, and it’s no surprise the highlight of our meal was the Rib Eye.
Perfect execution, quality cut and nicely paired with a wide section of wines and beers, we might have just found our new favourite steak joint!
The Grosvenor is a spacious, moderately upscale pub conveniently located between Balaclava and Saint Kilda East. The menu is extremely vegetarian friendly and includes a selection of veg woodfired pizzas, a delicious tomato gnocchi, and an eggplant parm if you want something less bready. The eggplant is topped with cheese and pesto and full of flavour. It pairs surprisingly well with a side of sweet potato chips. The polenta chips are a bit less oily than the sweet potato, with a nice crisp exterior. They make a great starter along with a Caprese salad, abundant in burrata and basil. I also enjoyed a side of broccolini and green beans to freshen things up a bit. Speaking of fresh, the lemongrass tea mocktail is super refreshing and not too sweet. Service was quick and attentive and the space was comfortable. It's large and would make an ideal venue for groups.
A nice local spot for a great steak. Is my go to when in the mood for some red meat. Prices are a little high but is expected when the quality is high standard. It can get a little noisy so pick your night wisely.
Amazing pizzas, expensive but worth paying for.
I love this place! I would definitely recommend for everyone to stop by and have some unique deli sweets.
Most of them are my favourite, but the stand out? The affogato!
Cozy place, good food and lovely staff with family friendly.
I ordered mostly seafood, they taste quite fresh and dessert was exceptional but I wish my Ice cream sundae had more ice cream than whipped cream 😬
The food is great. One of the best parmas I have ever had. Ordered Diet Coke off the tap and it turns out a bit sour and flat. It’s actually really gross.
Trivia night was great but it’s a bit too dark, making me a bit uncomfortable
Third time here at the Grosvenor hotel, has been different food experience each time. All pretty good.
This was our last visit. Layout of the venue is well presented, open bar with spot for band at one end and restaurant at the other. Had lady playing solo Acoustic this night. Décor is still pretty decent.
Entrée tonight was four good size pieces of the Buttermilk Fried Chicken, (See pic), We quickly eat two... These came out fire hot, were cooked to perfection, chicken was tender, with beautiful crumbs on the outside. Very decent sizes and could be shared by four people as a quick bite.
Mains were Parma and Fish and Chips.
Parma was what I consider stock Aussie Pub standard (still very good). Shoe String fries were spot on and the salad, been salad had a nice dressing that completed the meal.
Fish and Chips were good, Fish was presented different and taste was on point. Same as Parma, Fries and Salad were very good.
Drinks . Beer is what it is, Lemon Lime and Bitter was a med size - good
taste.
Service was quick and pleasant without been over the top.
Good night out overall.
One of the best steaks I ever had! The chef told someone at my table that she definitely ordered the steak she would never order because she always gets the same thing and he wouldnt back down which changed the mood of the table and her steak didn't look good. That was disappointing. Service was good
We visited on a Tuesday night to take advantage of the Tuesday $25 steak deal. Interestingly, there was no sign or mention of this special. If you didn't know about it beforehand, it wasn't offered to you at all. I suggest you look ahead to see which specials they have on, for example Thursday nights are $15 pizza nights.
The three of us ordered our steaks, two medium rare and one medium. They come with a side salad and chips, and a small jug of pepper sauce. Although there are a number of sauces available on the menu, for the steak special you are limited to pepper sauce only. Fair enough but to be honest it wasn't a great pepper sauce. I don't often order pepper sauce (I far prefer mushroom or garlic sauce) but this one was quite harsh, and tasted more like white pepper than black or green peppercorn. It failed the chip-dip test (how does it taste on a chip dipped into it). It just really wasn't a great pepper sauce.
The salad was ok but I found mine to be a bit gritty, like it hadn't been washed properly. It was generously dressed with a vinegarette, maybe even a little too generously.
The steaks were well cooked. Mine looked slightly past medium rare but it was as soft as butter and delicious so I didn't mind at all. My wife complained that hers was very salty. She doesn't like a lot of salt so I tasted it to check and it was quite over seasoned. Even I thought it was a touch too salty, and I add salt to just about everything I eat.
Overall it was a pleasant meal but let down by a few small, easy-to-fix issues. It probably deserves 3.5 stars but Google doesn't do half stars...
Hosted a private function there on the weekend. The room was lovely and the food was fantastic, we had multiple compliments from guests on the quality of the food. Highly recommended
