Stokehouse St Kilda - Saint Kilda

We had dinner here for the first time in years and it was absolutely sensational. Every dish that we had was excellent and tasty. The place looks super cool inside and the service was good as well. Only one small negative was that we were seated and then asked to move as someone else had requested the same table. But overall a great experience and great night out.

Wonderful food which we were easily able to share between two of us. Whilst seated we had a great view of the ocean. Staff were absolutely outstanding- so lovely and friendly. They also had some great food recommendations.

One of our favourite places in Melbourne. We always come here for special occasions or simply to have a drink at the bar and watch the sunset over the bay.

A fine surprise when your partner decides to spoil you with something that you have always been fascinated to go to dine.<br/ <br/ Stokehouse has a tastefully done interiors, and a cellar that houses wines from everywhere around the globe. The bar section is quite a stunner, and worth to stop-by before grabbing your table.<br/ <br/ Could it be possible for a fine diner to go wrong with the dishes? Probably not but it is definitely possible to excel in serving what guests deserve, and Stokehouse came quite close to doing that.<br/ <br/ Ordered a Baby Calamari and a Chicken Mains from their 'Celebrating 30 years to Stokehouse ' Special Menu together with a Fish Mains, Roche De Bellene Pinot Noir Wine and Poached Persimmon with Mandarin Meringue.<br/ <br/ From the small bites to main course to dessert, it was impossible to find any fault. Well balanced flavors, perfectly cooked meats and hospitality that echoed grandeur was reason enough to make the Birthday celebration even more special. Where Poached Persimmon with Mandarin clearly deserves the Dessert of the Day, Fish and Chicken Mains respectively, deserve the Dish of the Day.<br/ <br/ Not a great place for Vegans and Vegetarians to dine but glutenfree Customers will not be disappointed. Portions were quite tiny for the price you pay but quality can be easily rated as high as possible.<br/ <br/ Reserving a table at this fine diner, a month in advance, is recommended to save you from the disappointment at the time of walk-in.<br/

We came here just a few weeks after it reopened and were not very impressed. In it's old guise it had been a favourite and we finally decided to give it another go.I am pleasedto say we were much happier this time around. The fit out was finished and the food much improved. I am still not sold on the interior. It looks a bit like a log cabin has landed in the middle of a warehouse conversion which has then been furnished in the style of the Hamptons. It would be much improved if they white washed the log cabin IMHO.The food though was really good still a fairly small menu but really everything goes with everything and we had no problem putting together dishes we liked. The Persimmon desert and the Octopus were the stand outs. The wine list is extensive and the wines recommended to us were sublime.All in all, this was getting back to the Stokehouse we knew before the shutdown.
