An incredible experience at Zsa’s Bistro. The food was outstanding — beautifully crafted dishes with real attention to dietary needs (including a gluten-free fryer). The wine list was exceptional, and the team's knowledge of food and wine was seriously impressive. Service was prompt, warm, and professional. The atmosphere is relaxed yet refined — Michelin-level quality without any of the ego. Since the relaunch, Zsa’s has truly raised the bar. A must-visit whether you're local or travelling through Melbourne. 11/10.

The menu is very good without trying too hard to impress. The wine selection is great and the service is very good. Our steaks were perfectly cooked and the entrees simple but tasty. We feel very lucky to have Zsa's as a local restaurant.

Worst experience, the manager was arrogant and rude. The food is also average!
Zsa's Bar Bistro DeliResponded on February 17, 2025
I'm sorry to hear that you felt I was rude—that was certainly not my intention. At Zsa’s, we always strive to provide a welcoming and enjoyable experience for all our guests. Saturday nights are incredibly busy for us, and accommodating a late arrival, 45minutes late, arriving with a pram in a fully booked venue, can be quite challenging, hence why we had to ask you to leave the pram at the front door, My priority was ensuring the restaurant ran smoothly while also doing my best to accommodate your booking. I regret if this came across in a way that didn’t feel welcoming. We truly appreciate your feedback and would love the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future.

Lovely local wine bar with some interesting takes on contemporary European. Got us in and out for a show at the Town Hall but didn’t feel rushed at all.
