Med Grill Royal Oak - Victoria

So much bread. Food was average with nothing to write home about except that each main (and soup) comes with a giant piece of bread. This bread, while tasting fine, had nothing to dip it in and us honestly most of a meal in its own right. Soup of theday was a coconut corn bisque which was weirdly chunky, overwhelmingly corn flavoured and not very creamy. The Mediterraneanbread had a white sauce that was more runny then flavourful. The Thai pasta dish (yes, saying Thai pasta out loud should beenough to know not to order it) was lacking in flavour and the only noteworthy flavour was coconut. The meat in the Carpacciowas on the dryer side and the pizza had a abundance of oil. On the bright side, our server was nice. A more honest reviewwould be 2.5 but google doesn?t have that so I?m rounding up.

Scored the last non reserved table for two (Probably should start making reservations from now on ,at 6pm last Friday night. Nice to see the place was packed, but also looked fully staffed. Definitely reserve a table if you're determined to eat here, itreally helps. They have this large patio in the shade so it's quite nice (in my opinion not to be too blinded by the sun andavoid being overly too hot. I didn't sit there, but it's nice to remind that it's there! Ordered the Kalamari for appetizers,my husband got the chicken sandwich with fries, and I got (super exciting for me a pizza combo with soup of the day. Soup wasgood for me, I liked the corn and coconut flavours. The pizza was good not too much cheese (so I didn't feel like I was heavilyclogging the arteries , and a good amount of toppings that you'll have a bite of meat with every bite. The appetizer wasalright, although it was a little under for our taste (maybe it was meant to be served that way? , and a little bland for us(probably safer to be under salted than overly salted? . My husband was alright with his meal. Though he found it filling, itjust didn't blow him away. I have managed to visit many more times before this, and it had consistently good taste forme. Thus, 4 stars my husband wanted to give 3.5, but I rounded up; ambience is pleasant for me, the service was prompt,servers were lovely, and everyone that came into the restaurant were greeted in a timely fashion. Of course, it is a nice placeto take your date as well.

Fantastic place to go. With their recent 25-year anniversary, you can well understand their succes by their exceptional food, service and inviting atmosphere. Lots of hard surfaces so it can be a challenge to hear, but well worth the effort. To add, Icame back because it was that good. And, these are these are the best quesadillas I've ever had outside Latin America!!!

Everything was excellent and seemingly effortless? Staff were kind and courteous without being over the top. Steak cooked perfectly and they didn?t bat an eye with me making a few substitutions. My partners meal (Prosciutto wrapped Chicken) came outa few minutes after mine (The only minor demerit) but both entrees were exceptionally plated and absolutely delicious. Again,great service, food quality and atmosphere. Will be returning.

The exterior and location are a little deceiving as it gave off a different vibe (the sign reminded me of Mexican cuisine) ???? but the inside was a great space to enjoy a family friendly meal. Service was very accomodating and the food was as well.Appetizers were great to share and the set meal options were good and had extremely reasonable pricing. We all left happy andfull.
