Suzie Q was unapologetically rebellious, alluring and ahead of her time. Bathed in the red glow of oriental charm, her underground chinese restaurant was a well-kept secret by those in the know during the 80’s in downtown San Francisco; a hidden gem drawing people in from across the city with her timeless dishes and unforgettable ambiance. Suzie Q embodies the indulgence of this rich legacy, re-imagined through a modern lens and coupled with retro oriental charm, classic chinese fare and contemporary cocktails.

Toorak Cellars is equal parts bottle shop and wine bar, located just opposite Toorak station on Beatty Avenue in Armadale. Our aim is simple: to source, acquire and serve the best wines we can find at any given price point, from Australia and around the world.We believe strongly in the idea that wine should taste like fruit and minerals instead of oak and alcohol. The wines we serve should reflect with great clarity the soil from which they were grown, and the four seasons that passed through that vineyard during a specific vintage.We serve a constantly changing twenty wines by-the-glass, or you can open any bottle straight off the shelf. We don't have a kitchen, but if you're hungry we do have some creative ways of feeding you.Great wine is for everyone, and everyone is welcome. See you soon at the Cellars!

    I recently took my girlfriend to Yugen for her birthday, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, with a sleek yet cozy design that set the perfect tone for the evening. The service was exceptional—attentive without being intrusive, and the staff made us feel truly special. The food was absolutely phenomenal, each dish a work of art, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. Every bite was a new discovery, with inventive takes on traditional Japanese cuisine. The standout for us was the Chefs Menu experience, where the chef guided us through a series of exquisite courses that showcased both creativity and technique. It wasn’t just a meal; it was a celebration of taste and artistry. Yugen’s attention to detail and dedication to excellence made it the ideal place to mark such a special occasion. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a truly remarkable dining experience in Melbourne!
