Best Modern Australian Restaurants in Hillside (Melbourne)

This was an exceptional experience. Everything had been thought out to the minute detail. We have been to many 3* Michelin restaurants in Europe and this restaurant equates to the best. The food was wonderful , the service second to none. The culinary theatre was spectacular. You felt the team worked like a well oiled machine. Everyone pitched in, down to the sommelier also waiting on table. You felt that this was a culinary family who were keen to ensure that every diner had the very best experience. This meal was a celebration of our 50 th wedding anniversary and the team were keen to acknowledge this. There were so many nice touches that there were too many to mention individually. The wine parings were super and the sommelier was helpful, well informed and above all enthusiastic about the wines he had on his list. This is a real gem one that Melbourne and Australia should be really proud of. We can not recommend it more highly.

The choice of mains disappointed. Everything else was perfect

The evenings at Lamaro’s are always fantastic. Our visitors marvel that this is achieved at our “local”.

Waitstaff fabulous. Attentive, good knowledge of the wine and food.

Highly recommend this place it’s kid friendly they’ve got something for everyone
