First of all, the service was indeed commendable. Our food arrived in a timely manner, and the staff was friendly, although I’m not a fan of them touching my back while refilling my water. It happened a few times during our meal, which made me a bit uncomfortable, but it wasn’t a major issue. One nice touch was that they waited for everyone at the table to finish before clearing away plates, which made for a more relaxed dining experience.
For the appetizer, I had the fried buffalo mozzarella sandwich, which was absolutely delightful—light, cheesy, and beautifully presented. My companions tried different dishes and were equally impressed with their choices, which were also well plated. They...
Wow! Wow! Wow!<br/ What an incredible way to celebrate Valentine’s Day at this incredible restaurant!<br/ Food was incredible; service was so attentive and the ambience and overall atmosphere was perfect for a date night.<br/ But I just cannot go past the quality of the food, the beetroot and goats cheese ravioli was just an amazing explosion of flavours in my mouth! The kingfish (not a fan of fish at all, let alone raw) was just perfectly prepared and the Vitello Tonnato was poached to perfection!<br/ That was just entree!!<br/ The mains were superb we got the duck and the beef Wellington; it was so tasty and the beef and duck were both cooked exactly how it needed to be.<br/ By dessert we...
If you have an occasion that requires fine dining and quality service in Malvern, this is the place for you!<br/ <br/ Their menu offers a wide range of dishes, all lovingly prepared and quickly devoured. The oysters were fresh, the steak was cooked perfectly and even the vegetables were done so expertly that it went straight to my stomach with no complaints! Dessert was probably the most underwhelming course but after such a lovely main meal, I almost didn't notice!
OK so I hadn't heard about this place but it's definitely one to write home about. The food was very good with my favourite by far being the beetroot goats cheese ravioli. I had to go back for a second serve it was delicious! The first image there is what was left of the second plate when I realised I needed to take a photo so you could see what I was talking about. Whilst I'm not a wine connoisseur it's meant to have some of the best wine in Melbourne.

My husband and I just left Riserva and whilst sitting in the car we couldn’t help but reflect on what a charming and welcoming place this is. Whether we’ve been here during the middle of a busy service or on a quiet Saturday afternoon, we get the same attentive and caring service that makes us feel like we have come to a fun family gathering. Effortlessly elegant, we can’t wait to come back to one of our favourites
Super cute local wine shop, bar and restaurant that's brimming with a European art deco casual bistro vibe. The wine list is in pretty much on display. I really liked the by the glass options which were predominantly from vineyards afar. The menu is short but full of quality options that makes decisions very difficult. I'll be back.
Riserva is one of my favorite dinner spots. It boasts a fantastic ambiance, along with exquisite food and wine. The staff is incredibly accommodating when it comes to gluten-free options and always friendly! With a lovely view of Central Park in Malvern, it’s a perfect place for a Sunday night wine.
