Had Christmas in July. Food was just OK, could have been better. The entertainer was first rate. Everyone had fun.

We took our service dogs to the RSL in reservoir. We were welcomed and the staff were very attentive. Food was great.

Upstairs restaurant serves excellent food from a small but decent menu and the service is consistently terrific and friendly. My wife and I have been dining here weekly for a few months now and we will continue to do so because we have yet to be disappointed. Highly recommended for dinner.

Bistro has really gone downhill since John & Dim left.
Food is ordinary at best, dined here 3 occasions since new chefs started and it seems to get worse each time. will not be back.

Grilled pork loin chops with vegetables was delicious but take lasagne off your menu because it was disgusting, dry and burnt and could not be eaten. The salad was nice, the chips were ordinary

Popped in for dinner the other day, the waitress Eliza was very attentive and the service was amazing! The food was delicious too. 10/10 definitely recommend :)

I would have given 5 stars however
One staff member in the bistro was extremely rude to her wait staff..
she abruptly told the two woman serving to face the customers and not her.
There is a way to address your staff and you unfortunately have absolutely no idea.
I was in hospitality for 25 years and the best way to approach staff is with a happy positive attitude.
One of the young women was clearly unhappy with this woman's behaviour and I do not blame her.
Apart from that the meal was fabulous and other staff warm and friendly.

Fantastic food, drinks, AND service! Hit all the marks, with incredibly fresh ingredients! The atmosphere is very welcoming, but tidy. The helpings are very generous. Everything tastes house made and flavorful.

It was the best meal I've had in Melbourne so far even travelled from North Melbourne to go to the restaurant highly recommend it service was brilliant meals came out fast didn't have to wait a hour for a meal fresh and delicious grate atmosphere and catered for kids which was a bonus thanks.

Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5

Kid-friendliness
My young fella was being a menace lol and no one complained and provided a high chair

This is one of the best restaurants for miles around! The food has been unfailingly nice and often sensational! We had garlic bread to start and that was a mistake. While the garlic bread was great, the meat platter defeated us! The two of us couldn't finish it. The beers and wine are usually less expensive than anywhere else, however this week they are on special! Gold! I thoroughly recommend this place and it should be packed every day!

Went last night with friends. The meals lately have been very disappointing. We ordered "a roast beef". It came out with shredded beef, I'm sure it was left overs and NO roast vegies at all, it had mashed potato and cauliflower. The other meals were very small, loaded baked potatoes were very small. We've always loved it here, but the last few times have been very disappointing. Won't be going back again unfortunately.

Came in for tea all the way from Seymour for a lovely roast that we had had in the past, Very disappointed in the service waitress was rude, no roast even though it was advertised on special board, no garlic bread and other things because they were busy last night apparently. Really not good enough won't be back??'?

Visited on Sunday the 21st of May to celebrate my grandmother's birthday. We had heard positive reviews about this place, but we were pleasantly surprised by the exceptional food offered in Reservoir. The dishes were of excellent quality and reasonably priced. Both chefs were accommodating, and our waitress, Eliza, was incredibly friendly and helpful. Thank you to the team for a wonderful experience. We look forward to returning next Sunday.

Took the family here for Mothers Day and all 8 of us were stoked with the quality and service. we never knew this place was in the area but we are glad we found it. the meat platter and mixed dips were to die for. Will definitely be back

Ordered 4 meals at the same time, no changes to anything, meals came out one by one, last one didn't come out until other 3 were completely finished. Eggplant Parma was ordered with chips and salad but came with no chips and more than half a plate of salad that even a starving rabbit wouldn't get through, when we asked about the missing chips that were on receipt, we were told that it doesn't come with chips(even tho we asked for them). People that came after us and ordered similar meals were fed before us. Staff had no interest in anything we asked about, just gave 2 word answers.
It shouldn't be that hard to deliver 4 meals at once, and having to wait 30 minutes for a standard chicken Parma after the first meal was delivered is ridiculous. 2 stars for the freshness of the food.

I'm a Queenslander and came to this RSL for dinner with family. I had the parmi it was massive good sized and the pepper sauce is amazing! No bacon on the parmi though :/ , However the restaurant is way to loud and you can everyone through the smokes pit which isn't a nice sight when eating. Someone vomited in the smokers pit and you could see everything! Also another thing I would not like to see when I'm eating a meal. Kids aren't allowed in the sports bar even when supervised! Overall the meals are great but the hospitality side of things is terrible.The staff were snappy when asking questions and I did not feel welcome at all. No coasters for drinks, no greeting when entering had to find the menus over self! Only thing going for my experience was the meal size.

I attended a function on New Years Eve in the upstairs function room. The facilities were good, food good but ALL of the staff were brilliant. Service was great and everybody had a smile when they were serving making for a most enjoyable evening.

Had dinner upstairs in the restaurant. We ordered the barramundi and veges. Delicious. The fish was cooked to perfection. We will be back soon!

I have never had a meal at this establishment until today, and never will in the future. Ordered a seniors meal, roast of the day , which was roast lamb, when it finally arrived, the meat on the plate was All fat, mashed potato and some hashed up greens wth a small gravy boat. Absolutely disgusting!!

Great venue, super friendly staff. Went to see Cold Chisel cover band, was fantastic. Food also good. Highly recommend.

Lovely and inviting restaurant, the tastiest food and most attentive staff.
We had the platter this evening and were delighted with the quality and serving size.
We will be back!

Not as good as other RSL branches I've been too but still not bad

Restaurant has gone terribly downhill. Chips obviously not cooked fresh, just sitting under a warmer.. calamari reminded me of a dog chew toy, grilled fish was pathetic and the Greek salad was depressing.

On a side note, the staff are excellent, especially the lovely bar lady.

Fast friendly service, wide menu, delicious meal.

John & his staff are fabulous, great food & service.

Had a great Parma - service and kitchen staff were great

Had a wake in the function room upstairs. The staff were brilliant & we had plenty of food. Highly recommend.

Lovely place!! Some very friendly and colourful bar/ gaming staff.. looking forward to returning!!

Excellent choice of venue, the Greek inspired menu is Fantastic, I had the Scotch fillet and veggies. The steak was small but cooked perfectly and the veggies were cooked well.All meals were excellent thanks chef

Fantastic restaurant upstairs. If you go there, tell John the chef that Janet recommends you and maybe he will give you special treatment. LOL
