Restaurants in de buurt van Ormond

We enjoyed really delicious food at Donovan’s - we loved the specials, particularly the anchovies and kingfish crudo. The service was excellent, our waiter was super friendly and very attentive and our water was always topped up. I’d definitely recommend dining here, although the only challenge was that we were seated by the window facing the sun and it was uncomfortably warm as the lightweight blinds gave little shelter from the heat!

A great place to kick off 2025. The restaurant was packed but the staff were friendly and unflustered. We were asked if we would like to move to a window table that became available - we took up the offer and enjoyed the wonderful view. Great assistance from a staff person in selecting our wine. Generous servings of food that was delicious. Minus 1 star for small portions of seafood in my pasta but aside from that I would highly recommend.

If you enjoy the slightly unusual with an Aussie influence then this is the restaurant for you - we really enjoyed the food, it was an unforgettable night The only two downers that don’t relate to the food were 1. We didn’t have any dedicated waiting staff so didn’t get to develop any repartee / relationship which often enhances the night. The sommelier young man was the exception and therefore great … we had little conversations with him during the wine selection times …. He was great - having said that there was lots of serving staff 2. in the past we had heard (and was looking forward) to going into a real garden to show some of the produce used so quite disappointing to be lead to an enclosed box out the back either lots of little standing tables for guests

Great staff and food- most enjoyable Convenient opposite the Ripponlea station

Steff’s food is, simply put, magical. Plentiful, delicious, appealing to the eye - as the plates arrive and you think you’ve ordered a lot, you find yourself eating every divine morsel! Marty as ever the warm and smiling maitre’d, cocktails en pointe, surrounded by happy diners and a Jamaican music vibe…what’s not to love?
