Came here with friends for a birthday celebration. First of all it's a restaurant with an interesting history (google information about Mirka Mora beforehand). So for anyone with an artistic or historical interest, then that alone makes this restaurant worthwhile. There is a kind of "art gallery" upstairs in the hotel (Tolarno) area and the receptionist was very gracious in... More

To start well is always a great opener. I was promptly greeted and asked if i would like my coat hung. This makes a pleasnat change from the usual of hanging it off the back off the chair. The staff were attentive and knowledgable of the menu without pretention. The same could be said about the food. Each flavour was... More

Beautiful restaurant, friendly staff, great food. Wine can be a bit pricey so make sure you order it yourself... Don't just ask for a Pinot because they will bring you a $100 bottle and you won't knot until the end.

It was my final night in Australia so I decided I wanted to make my last meal special. Having been rudely treated at di Stasio across the road, my companion and I took our business to Mirka. We were warmly welcomed but seated in a smallish room off to the side. The place was strangely empty so we asked if... More

My family and I lunched at Mirka one Sunday recently, as a birthday celebration, and it was everything you would hope for. The food was beautiful, service was efficient and professional, whilst remaining friendly, and the location was also good. Highly recommended, but if you are watching your pennies, it is slightly on the pricey side (worth it, though!!).

This is a great Melbourne institution which has been enhanced with signature Grossi. Very good food, wines & service make this a stand out Bistro offering very good value for money. It has been one of our favourites for a long time, albeit with a gap in the late 90s when under different owners

We were very impressed with the food, wine, service, ambience and attention given to detail with this restaurant and would highly recommend it! Location was literally just over the road from the Urban Hotel where we stayed in St Kilda.

Guy Grossi through his local television exposure and Italian background in the restaurant business is a consummate provider of great fare. Mirka is an ideal location to celebrate as we did doing 2 birthdays at once. The al fresco dining menu with shared plates was excellent and all 5 of us reckon it was a top evening. We thought the...

We were a group in for lunch. We were presented with set menus which offered one course for $25, two for $35 and three for $45, including a glass of wine and coffee. That was all fine and we all decided on the two course option. We were offered drinks while we awaited the last members of our party before... More

I was impressed by the variety on the menu which offered something for most. I found the meal portions more than sufficient. If you want big hearty serves you go to a pub where you trade off quality for quantity. For example I sometimes eat a $15 meal at the Toolangi pub and can't finish it. Grossi's mark up on... More
