Stokehouse (The) Melbourne, Australia

With (arguably) the best location in Melbourne--St Kilda's foreshore--the Stokehouse is a perfect spot for a meal with friends or family. Inside it is roomy but cozy; noisy, and still romantic; simple but colorful. Somehow it pulls it all off! Sitting outside, it is a bliss to watch the rollerblading cruising into the sunset. Although the quality of the food downstairs can be inconsistent, you will always get a good pizza, pasta, meat, seafood or vegetarian meal to savor. The dining room upstairs offers a much higher standard of food for those who like the quality of their meal to match the view.
