Best Barbecue Restaurants in Kew East

Good value for premium wagyu cuts will come again!

Awesome day, great staff, plenty of food and very efficient and friendly service

If you want a review of the steaks at Meat Maiden, scroll on. I didn’t order steak…which is perhaps akin to going to Red Rooster and not ordering chicken. I went for the miso cauliflower, perhaps not the first choice of most diners. But I made our reservation because I knew my mega-carnivorous husband would love it. And he did. So yes, the food was excellent. Go for the food. But waaaaaaaay better than the food were the staff. Unlike the current trend for waitstaff to make it obvious they’d rather be anywhere than taking your food order, MM staff all genuinely looked like they wanted to be there. They were joyful, engaging and had each other’s backs. They worked together like a well oiled machine and it was fun and heart warming to watch. I’d go back for the chips. For the crème caramel, for the cauliflower and the donut. My husband would go back for the burnt ends and the pork belly and scallops. But most of all, we’d go back for Nathan and the rest of the staff.

Amazing service, food was great and reasonably priced. Ambience was overall fantastic and would definitely recommend.

Last time I went here was over a year ago, but I was sad on this recent visit to realise they no longer have the salmon on the menu. The veggie options were unsuitable for me, so it was dearly missed! But the soju cocktails are great value and the meat lovers I attended with thoroughly enjoyed.
