Was Anonym at Penta a mag?
My family and I called in on Mother's Day without a booking and we're pleasantly surprised that we were able to get a table for 5 within minutes (albeit outside). My kids were wrapped there was a park across the road. We had a beautiful brunch. The potato rosti were a big favorite with my husband & kids.

What Anonym dislikes about Penta:

Penta is a beautiful little Elsternwick cafe with an interior that screams classy and refined, yet also encourages relaxation. Upon ordering their very famous nutella panacotta, I'd have to say I was a little disappointed with the portion size for the price paid. While it was something nice to eat, the flavours were not extraordinary enough to justify the price (the banana sushi was a little odd). However, the braised beef cheeks with waffles and a hollandaise sauce was truly wonderful and I thoroughly enjoyed the palate of flavours that were presented. All in all, lovely cafe with a cute interior and nice staff. Would definitely revisit for the waffles!

My kids were wrapped there was a park across the road. We had a beautiful brunch. The potato rosti were a big favorite with my husband & kids. The Nutella panna cotta was YUM but rich so we shared, the banana sushi was brilliant. The granola bowl was the best for me though. Also had good coffee & tumeric latte.

The place is so nice because you can tell that they took care of any single detail! The food was very very good plus they had a few dishes that are totally glutenfree! I had the zoodles with salmon!!! Delicious!!! Keep up with the good work

The coffee at Penta in Elsternwick is exceptional! Despite the drive from Port Melbourne, it is definitely worth it. The Salmon, Zucchini and Avocado dish is perfect for my Ketogenic diet. Even though I don't usually prefer fish, this dish is amazing and I find myself coming back for it again and again.

I can't say enough good things about the amazing food at Penta. Everything is incredibly fresh and delicious. My absolute favorite dish is the breakfast bowl. The staff at Penta are always so welcoming and the coffee is outstanding. I highly recommend this restaurant.
