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!

Dear Richmond,This little restaurant is pour love letter to food. It's our happy little place, where we get to live the the joy of feeding people everyday. We all grew up in spaces that equated food with love, just like this place. Everything we have done here is deliberate, from the art on the walls to the produce we use. We've made a point of sourcing ingredients from some of the best suppliers in the state, making sure that our menu reflects what's in season. For us, this place is about experience: we try our best to make you feel both at home and 'out for something special'. Every plate that comes back wiped clean by someone who just couldn't get enough is a 'the hard work is worth it' moment for us. Matty & Tee From Love Letter, with love. xx

    These guys never miss a beat. The food is delish, with a great mix of brunch faves and offbeat options to choose from. The staff are so lovely and welcoming, and take the time to get to know regular diners. The place feels trendy but comfy. Their coffee is top notch.

    Roc's Social is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and a welcoming atmosphere that set the tone for an incredible evening. The ambience is just perfect—chic yet cozy, with a vibe that makes you feel right at home. The food was nothing short of spectacular. The menu offers a delightful variety of options, ensuring that there's something to satisfy every palate. Whether you're a fan of hearty classics or looking to explore something new and exciting, Roc's Social has you covered. The service was impeccable—attentive without being intrusive, and every staff member seemed genuinely happy to be there. Value-wise, Roc's Social offers an exceptional experience for the price. The quality of food and service, combined with the overall experience, makes it worth every penny. Finally, the noise level was just right—not too loud, but lively enough to create a great atmosphere. We could easily hold a conversation without raising our voices, which added to the overall enjoyment. In summary, Roc's Social exceeded all our expectations in every way. It’s the perfect spot for a special night out or just a casual get-together with friends. We’ll definitely be coming back!
