Ramblr - Glen Eira

Young, enthusiastic crew serves treats. Great to follow the action in the kitchen located in the front of. Do visit.

After reading a few online reviews, we decided to give this place a go. It's a difficult place to get a restaurant to work (its an old pizza restaurant) and a location that is dying retail and slowly getting more weeknight vibes happening. They have done a great fit out and were welcoming on our entry. We got a great table outside and ordered the Chef's menu for $66 per head. I'm so glad we did! Four courses (technically) but that consisted of multiple plates per course that would probably be described as 'mediterranean' in origin. Seriously, each plate was amazing. From the morton bay bug entree to the roast chicken main and panacotta desert (and I know I'm missing plates in-between) each bite was a delight. I can understand why the reviews are raving about this place. And it was pretty packed when we left. Plus the service was prompt, attentive and very friendly. Many times when you are seated outside on the footpath you can get forgotten, but not here. And overall experience on Chapel street that I hope to bring many friends back to enjoy. Well done and thanks for brining food back to this end of chapel street

I cannot fault this place. Everything exceeded my expectations. The service was excellent - really attentive, friendly and helpful. The food was absolutely amazing. I had the crab linguini and I savored every single bite. The pasta was luxurious and the combination of flavors came alive in my mouth. I particularly enjoyed their use of dill. They also served complimentary bread which was warm, nice and soft in the centre and with an excellent flavour. The menu had small plate options, pastas and mains. It was hard to choose what to have as everything looked so appealing! I'll definitely be back again!

Being fans of Leonard's House of Love, my friend and I decided to try Ramblr. We decided to have a bottle of the Vine Mind Clare Valley Riesling which we were pleased with, and selected a few plates to share. The kimchi toastie was delicious, as was another burrata cheese dish and my friend highly rated the cured trout. We had a special mushroom pasta and a mussel pasta for mains, both were delicious. It was one of the best pastas I've had. What really made our evening was the excellent service; John looked after us and was knowledgable and friendly, ensuring our wine was always topped up and assisting us as required. The food is not fussy and overpriced, it is simple yet high quality. Our total bill was around $130, which was very reasonable. I will definitely be coming back here, and telling all my friends about it. They have done a great job with everything and I look forward to making this one of my locals.

We walked past and it looked good. It was good to watch the kitchen staff busy working in the restaurant in the open kitchen and the waiter was very knowledgeable. We had squid noodles, sensational flavour of Kim-chi and chilli with fresh perfectly cooked squid. ($14). We had the Kim-chi and cheese toastie - great chilli and cheese flavour on a brioche toastie- amazing. ($9)We had the special - mushroom pasta-best strong mushroom flavour I have ever had - better than I had in France or Italy. ( $18) We had the roasted vegetables, which was a surprise choice of a selection of beans, sugar snap peas and brocolini - roasted on a grill with cream, preserved lemons and chilli oil smeared over it- delightful char-drilled flavour. ($17) All taken in with a bottle of Fredericks Stevenson rose ($68). Coffee was good as well. If you like sitting at a bar, there is plenty of it, chairs and tables as well. Excellent food, with a slight Korean influence, great fresh flavours and talented staff, trying different things- well worth a visit if you want something with a casual approach to more classic dining.
