LOVER

Went for the Gnocchi and wine night ($25) four types of Gnocchi dishes and either a glass of red or white. Honestly great value, the gnocchi was great and the wine was nice. Staff were friendly and would keep an eye on you quite regularly which was great!

Delicious food and cocktails, already booked my return

Great food, amazing wines, great service! I recommend it.

Great food, amazing drinks. Awesome place for my birthday dinner

Extremely good service and food!

The vegan gnocchi and wine for $25 was fantastic value for money.
The cocktails are delicious too and the place has a great vibe and friendly, knowledgable staff.

I didn’t eat any food but from what I saw it looked great. Attentive and friendly staff and the drinks and cocktail menu is awesome!! We were seated outside so I know there’s not much that can be done but the atmosphere inside seemed much more enjoyable.

Great meal! Would have liked a longer sitting as we were kicked out at 8pm but still lovely !

Great food and cocktails. Will definitely be back!

Delicious as always. Best gnocchi probably in the world

The food and atmosphere was amazing. Will continue to come here and bring my friends to experience it too! 😉

Yummy food but non-main portions are very small.
Cocktail called 'Hey Girl' was delicious!

The amazing food and cocktails stand in stark contrast to the super unwelcoming wait staff. Definitely wouldn’t go back in a big hurry. A nice reminder to the people running the show that Chapel Street boasts hundreds of lovely spots with lovely food and friendly people to make for a beautiful dining experience. People will always remember how you made them feel.

First shift and the best waitress in 3181

Worst service I’ve had in a long time. Attitude plus plus on all the male staff, more interested in socialising than service. Blonde female waitress was good. Not Covid safe. Food was good.

Absolutely loved our experience here, from the moment we walked in the staff were attentive and friendly. The food was amazing - we did the feed me menu. And the cocktails and ambience was lovely.

Can’t wait to go back.

Service was exceptional. Food was fantastic. Gluten free gnocchi was a highlight!

Food’s too salty but vibe is great!

One of the best venues in Melbourne right now. Amazing food and spectacular cocktails.

Loved it, great vibe and quality food and service!

They cancelled my booking which i came to know after reaching the venue and did not get a formal message or anything as such. I did receive a phone call but i was at work where my phone cannot be reached.

Fantastic service, food was delicious and venue was stunning

Very funky vibe but service was genuine- not pretentious. Loved the food too. Will be back.

LOVER was amazing. We had a cute little booth at the back - really great atmosphere. The gnocchi was incredibly soft and delicious! Definitely planning on coming back.

Best in Melbourne! Food is great and reasonable price.

Not the same menu anymore, only 3/4 mains and everything else was starters. I wouldn’t go back for dinner there, it’s more like a bar now.

Food and cocktails were amazing. Fantastic date night destination for my girlfriends birthday

Love this place. Great food, good ambience and pretty reasonable prices.

Incredible! I don’t usually write reviews, but when I receive amazing service it’s worth noting down! I’ve been to a couple of places since Metro Melbourne has been out of lockdown and I’m forgotten about.

These guys have consistently given amazing service, the food is divine and comes out so quickly! Will continue to be a regular customer, other restaurants don’t compare. If you want yummy food and cocktails this is the place to be!

Thank you for being patient ❤️

Such amazing workers there who made the experience so much fun. Gnocchi and cocktail drinks were incredible too will be coming back again

Great spot

This place is the best place to eat , drink and have fun in Melbourne.
This is a must have on your dinner list weather you are wanting a fun night out or a beautiful romantic place for a date night.

This was seriously the best dinner I’ve had in years. The gnocchi was insane, the croquettes were amazing and the service was awesome. I loved having dinner here and I cannot wait for lockdown to be over so I can make this a regular spot 🧡

So lovely. Food was outstanding, service fantastic. I’m so glad I had this experience before the second lockdown.

If you're looking for a good time and a good feed, lover is the place to go! Thanks for a great night guys!

Great bops. Tracks were on point and it was the best night of my life.

Highly rate this restaurant. Delicious food, great ambience and the owner who served us was amazing.

I love Lover, if you haven’t eaten here you’re missing out. The staff are great, and the food is outstanding.

only thing is i wanted more options on the menu because i am pregnant. apart from that was epic!
