Skinny Dog Bar & Restaurant - Melbourne

I really enjoy the daily lunch specials at this restaurant. For just $19.90, you can choose from options like a steak sandwich, chicken wrap, and half parma, all served with a drink. The service is top-notch and the portion sizes are generous. The food is served quickly and the quality is great. Plus, if you're a sports fan, they have multiple televisions playing different sports channels, making it a fun place to enjoy a meal with friends during happy hour.

During my first visit, I tried the gnocchi with peas, asparagus, tomato, and ricotta, which was delicious and melted in my mouth. My brother ordered the chicken Parma, which was huge and satisfying. We also shared a bowl of fries as a side dish. On my second visit, I ordered the scotch fillet steak with mushroom sauce and vegetables cooked to medium rare, and it was soft and pink. My mum had the pan-fried ricotta gnocchi with pumpkin, feta, and sage, which had amazing flavors. My dad had the pea and mushroom dish, which he found to be very tasty. We ordered fries again because we enjoyed them so much the first time. I also had the lemon and lime butters with my meal. The service was a bit average that night, probably due to it being busy.

I have been enjoying beers and meals at Skinny Dog in Kew for years. It is conveniently located near tram routes 48 and 109. During a recent visit, I enjoyed a couple of happy hour schooners while waiting for a friend to join me for dinner nearby. The happy hour on Friday evenings from 4-7 offers great deals, with my Iron Jack schooner only costing $5.50. Although I usually prefer pints, I was happy to downsize at that price. I hadn't eaten at Skinny Dog in a while and noticed that the menu had changed, but I made a mental note that Thursday nights are "Parmageddon" nights. I always appreciate finding new places for parma nights that aren't on the typical Tuesday. Overall, Skinny Dog is a relaxed venue with tasty food and affordable drinks. It is definitely the best pub in the Kew area.

Skinny Dog is local for me so been many times for lunch and tried nearly everything on the menu. Food is fresh, tasty, good quality and well priced. They offer the typical pub options and lunch specials but also some more refined dishes and a great specials board. Specials included barramundi, seafood linguine and chocolate fondant (only $12! . <br/ Location is excellent right in the heart of Kew Junction with ample parking and transport options. Ambiance is also excellent, it is clean and modern and diners are well to do. <br/ <br/ Suitable for just about every type of dining or drinks. Will definitely return.

3.7<br/ <br/ The Skinny Dog Hotel is a fantastic venue. It has everything. Great bar at the front. Dining spaces and airy back bar. The clientele are top notch Kew boozers. Classy pub tab at front with the dish lickers on the big screen. Twosheds will return to eat here in due course.
