Menu

A complete menu of Houndstooth from Melbourne featuring all 23 dishes and drinks can be found here on the list.

Houndstooth, located in a small, quiet space off the main drag in Fitzroy, offers a unique dining experience with a mix of German-inspired, Asian, and other cuisines. The starters are a hit with hot olives, Spanish ham, and cucumber salad, but some dishes fell short. The extensive wine/cocktail list and interesting flavors make it worth a visit, with a good vegetarian/vegan selection available. The relaxed atmosphere, affordable prices, and delicious food make it a standout in Melbourne, with set price menus offering great value. Houndstooth's modern cuisine with Japanese fusion, attention to detail, and casual vibe provide a unique dining experience that is well worth a visit.

Was Orion Lebsack at Houndstooth a mag?
Great little bar and restaurant in Fitzroy. The frontage is hidden away, so don't walk past! Provides an extensive wine/cocktail list as well as a good range of snacks, entrées, mains and desserts. Interesting flavours, a bit of a change from the norm, and a good vegetarian/vegan selection in addition to the meat dishes. Charming service. View all feedback.

What Nova Kshlerin dislikes about Houndstooth:
Small, quiet space off the main drag. Short menu includes a number of German-inspired dishes, along with some based on Asian and other cuisines. Starters were all good: olives served hot, nice Spanish ham, cucumber salad. But it went downhill from there. Salads were pretty bland, pork main dish was tough. Kitchen was fairly slow.
