Wonderful old world ambience like a good European bistro restaurant, sensational open wood fire that was so enjoyable on a cold Melbourne day. The charcoal-grilled steaks were a treat, as were the yummy chips. Excellent table service a most pleasurable lunch had by all

Tuesday is steak day. For $24.00 it’s a fabulous experience. The Erica wine list is also very well curated. On a cold day (they’re coming) the open fire is a haven to sit and relax. Never disappoints.

Good pub food, tad expensive, great atmosphere, but understaffed on the floor and slow kitchen which meant service was slow.

My partner and I enjoyed our lunch on a very busy Sunday. The atmosphere was quite convival. The food quality was of a high standard and the service was great. My only criticism is that the place is hard to get into.

We've eaten at Mount Erica Hotel many times and have enjoyed the experience, however, last night was not a good experience. The noise level was so high it was impossible to have a conversation with friends. We couldn't wait to leave. Food was average, but they were super busy. Not sure I will return.
