Exceptional service which I can't thank them enough for, beautiful cocktails and an amazing selection of Asian inspired tapas and mains. I highly recommend checking this gem out.
Amazing Service of cocktails and food surround by a great atmosphere. Staff were very friendly and the night went on to the early hours of the morning with the 24hr liquor licence.

St Kilda is full of places to eat and drink, so it’s hard to stand out and keep a crowd of regulars. Though it’s more known as a bar and for its extensive cocktail and beverage list, Robarta has an impressive food menu too. Different days of the week have their own dinner specials and happy hour deals. The outdoors section includes both small and communal bench tables. Inside you can take a seat at a high table, at the bar, or laze on a couch with drink in hand. As the night goes on, the party continues upstairs where there’s a balcony, more seating and a second bar.
AMAZING FOOD! We visited for dinner and ordered the schnitzel burger and an Indian curry. Both were delicious and very reasonably priced. I recommend the white choc passionfruit martini!
An awesome spot for a great feed and a few drinks. The food at Robarta is delicious, very well priced and the staff are always cheery. The Asian inspired menu is perfect for sharing with a few friends along with some cheeky cocktails! The location and outdoor seating area has that real St Kilda vibe and will be my go to heading into the summer months for a tasty feed with great atmosphere.
I'm a big fan of the Robarta dumplings and tapas. The chef is from Hong Kong and serves plump, juicy perfect dumplings in a range of flavours that I actually crave. Service is friendly and warm, the staff are all locals, and the hosts are truly hospitable, knowledgeable and welcoming. I'm a regular, so I may be biased, but I love the easy menu, the laid back style and the good people who drop in for the live music on the weekends, and the club nights til late.
This is a really good restaurant. The incredibly great Ginger Rice Balls are one of the best things I've eaten this year. I wasn't really sure what to expect given some somewhat variable reviews I'd read, but it was fantastic. Cheerful greeting when we arrived, clear explanation of what we could choose from with our voucher, really cool space (we sat "out the back"), attentive but not OTT service, terrific food. Excellent combination. Our voucher said we were entitled to "seven delicious Asian tapas dishes", but I think we ended up with eight. Ginger Rice Balls (4 per serve)($8) - Rice & ginger with a sesame seed coating. Served w/ Japanese Mayo. These were awesome, I just loved them. I'll be back just to eat some of these.
Amazing dumplings!!!! Even better cocktails!
Dumplings,Croquettes, Almond Prawns. Too delicious
Fresh flavours, presented beautifully at a very reasonable price. Will be back!
Amazing food! Love their tasting plates! Best place for a relaxed, cheap and fun night out. Great staff too

Yum, fun and a great location. Easy going with tables on the street to watch the world go by.
Peoples complaints on here are about petty things. I went with a group of 12 friends on a scoupon deal and had a great night. The food was flavor some and was varied. We were probably the most difficult table of the week with 2 or 3 of us having food allergies and the rest very fussy and all needs were met where possible. In my opinion the food service style ("Asian tapas") is very different to anything around that area. The girl that was singing was AMAZING, it added to the already nice atmosphere. well done guys
Yummy!. We also bought the scoopon deal but we got the 4 person option- whether this made our experience better than the others who bought the 2 person voucher, i dont know but we loved it! Delicious food, absolutely delicious every plate. My girlfriend and i had cocktails and both agreed they were the best we'd had in melbourne. The service was pretty good, nothing awesome and youre left to wait a little too often but when they finally get to you- the staff are nice and helpful. we'll be back!
Lovely staff, service and food! A combination which is hard to come by these days... I ve been a couple times now with my family and have always had a pleasant experience. Would def recommend Robarta!!
Great Tapas. What a wonderful restaurant, food , atmosphere, music and the staff, just a great experince. Thankyou to the lovely waitress from Yorkshire, what a delight, very professional, smile on her the whole time.Will be back for sure. Would make a great place for a special occasion.
One of the better restaurants on Fitzroy St.. Had a surf & turf and a beer by the window on a warm sunny day. The steak was cooked surprisingly to order (seems many restaurants with a grill don't have medium-rare in their vocabulary but this one did), and the seafood that came in the sauce was delicious but a bit stingy with the portion. The sticky date pudding has got to be far and away the best in Melbourne, and is alone worth coming back for. Service was good, didn't wait to be seated and the staff were reasonably attentive considering the vast majority of customers were sitting outside. Left with a smile on my face. 8.5/10
My husband and I just had dinner there this evening using a Scoopon. We had heard mixed reviews in the past but thought we would give the place the benefit of the doubt. And aren't we glad we did!! We indulged in a six course tapas, starting with Miso soup and a special fried rice (vegetarian), then choosing 4 mains and finishing it off with dessert. We chose the almond crusted prawns which were monstrous, the baked eggplant with caramelised miso sauce, the vegetable tempura and salt and pepper squid. Every dish was delicious, each morsel melting in our mouths. The balance of seasoning and spices was simply perfect. To top it off we ordered a panna cotta with berry coulis and an apple crumble for dessert. Just delightful and deceivingly filling! Thank you Robarta.. we will be back for more :)
FANTASTIC! I love robarta! It definitely gets busier as the night goes on however the food is delicious so I would recommend eating there sometime too. Atmosphere is fantastic, staff are lovely, cocktails are incredible (seriously good espresso martini)
Nice cosy modern restaurant. We came here accidentally after the restaurant we'd booked had closed down! They seated us inside on a slightly raised area. They had a special on house wine $5 per glass which was great. We ordered quickly and the food came out after about 15 minutes. We ordered beef with oyster sauce which came with rice, and chicken noodles. Both were very nice, tasty and generous portions. The staff were nice and friendly. The meals and 2 glasses of wine cost us under $40. We left an hour after we arrived which was great for us. Would definitely come here again.
Enjoyable Evening. Upon arriving at 7.30 we were greeted by a happy and friendly staff member who offered seats of our choice - inside or out. Our food (spring rolls, dumplings, Thai salad, drumettes) arrived together and promptly approx 15mins after the order was placed. The food was good, we had a enjoyable evening out and would be happy to return in the future.
Nice Food. Dined with 2 x Scoopons and thoroughly enjoyed their meals and a great range to choose from.
Awesome. Went early in a Saturday evening with the girls after a wedding they easily sat 8 of us without a reservation. I had never tried tempura vegetables before but a girlfriend says "its like a potato cake but with different veg". So i get some calamari and tempura and was amazed. Staff were lovely and chatty. Ever since i have been craving tempura. Ohh and pricing was so reasonable. Will definately be back!
Supurb!. DIne with My Scoopon on Sunday, food was sensational. Never really thought of Robarta as somewhere to eat but will defintately be back.
Fav night spot in St Kilda, hands down!. Love the atmosphere and the wonderful staff. great mix of music too. as for the white chocolate and passion fruit cocktails... i think i could easily drink them for the rest of my life!
I love this place, had my 30th there!. I had my 30th at robarta and often go there to eat. Having been a chef before I entered into acting, I can honestly say the food is excellent.
I am always welcomed by the staff and served like royalty. This place understands true hospitality.
P.S I can highly recommend the cocktails!
Amazing food if you like asian cuisine. My friend and I purchased a voucher on deals.com for $29 and got 7 tapas dishes. We couldn't believe how much food came out. We ended up ordering cocktails, that were worth every cent.
Service was also good, our waitress was really helpful with the menu choices and well mannered.
I am so glad we decided to buy the voucher, definitely going back again!
Went for dinner recently with friends. Sharing tapas dishes worked well for large group and was good value. Definitely go again

Had an amazing joint 30th with my best friend in October at Robarta upstairs. Everything was was perfect and the staff were great. Elegant and great sized venue! Great drinks!! Shout out to Chris the bar tender who was awesome fun and provided a great service!!
I went here Saturday but it was called Green Velvet. It had some great seating and atmosphere. Went while on the St Kilda wine and cider walk. Did not realise the whole menu was vegan, which was amazing! The food was incredible!
I have frequented the ‘new look’ Robarta on many events and social occasions.. The food extraordinary, the service outstanding, the drinks, particularly cocktails, are incomparable.. Your function will be seamless & the venue amazing!!! Do not go past this establishment with a ‘new dining & bar’ vibe for all your event highlights!!! Value 100% plus & more! 💯 💯 💯
A fun night with friends at Robarta tonight. The food was delicious. Whilst the rest of Fitzroy st is slowly shutting down/giving up, Robarta holds its head up high with great staff, service and menu. Special thanks to Chris for great guidance on menu and bevvy choices!
We came in for lunch yesterday at bunny. We had great service and a nice red, butcher's block I think. And I am hard to impress but your Mac daddy Slam burger, or whatever it's called got an 8.8 from me.
Plant based burgers that actually tastes like a burger! Definitely worth visiting with your vegan mates meat eaters!! Green Velvet, the new venue in the old downstairs Robarta! French wines that are naturally vegan friendly & good cocktails too!!
