Prosciutto Bros. Craft Bar is a cozy spot with an 'amazing atmosphere', as per one review. With 'abundance of alcohol choices', 'modern vintage' decor, and 'friendly, helpful staff', it's a 'welcoming place'. The 'nice vibe' and 'great food' make it a 'nice catch up place' or a 'great place for an after work drink and pizza'. The 'live music' on Friday night adds to the fun, but the noise can be an issue for those looking for a quieter setting.

• Chinese • Windsor

Booked 23 times today

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.

• Wine Bar • Armadale

Booked 17 times today

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!

Food was amazing and cannot fault it at all! Service was rushed and a little abrupt. We were served our entrees before all our guests arrived. Told to start eating as there was more food coming. We felt rude starting before everyone arrived. Our waiter was rather abrupt and pushing alcohol on guests that were driving which I felt was irresponsible. He also was very in your face and put menus right in front of people's faces, not to mention talking at people rather than politely stepping in to ask guests a question.
