Things to do in Surrey Hills
1. Centonove

Reviewed By BrooksieG - Melbourne, Australia
There’s a touch of quality about everything at Centanove and it’s probably a cut above most other restaurants around Kew, particularly if you’re looking for something a little more elegant for that special night out. Service is first class, the wine list is varied and the food, including the yummy bread, absolutely fresh.
2. Dumpling King Chinese Restaurant

It doesn't matter how many times we come here it always maintains the standard and that is excellent. A loose group of ex workmates use this restaurant as their catch up point every 4 months or so. Young service staff are polite and friendly, we always start with dumplings and then move on to shared dishes but really i would be happy to stay with dumplings because they are just so plump and full of flavour. The wine list may not be big but it has a good range and they are cheap when compared to other restaurants. Food prices are excellent and service is fast - we will return again and again
3. Indochine Vietnamese Restaurant

Reviewed By Paul L - Melbourne, Australia
This is a good restaurant for those people who like to eat in a well presented and clean place. The food is Western style Chinese and Vietnamese and its a good place for locals and business folk to unwind after a hard days work. You can sit inside or outside. I have always enjoyed my meals here, but if you want Authentic Chinese and Vietnamese food there are much better places in Box Hill.
4. Italy 1 At Camberwell
Overall Ratings
4 based on 153 reviews
Freshness, brightness, vigour – this is what has been injected into Burke Road’s well known Italy 1 Camberwell - with a little bit of the old. Now owned by two very energetic and enthusiastic owners, one being the previous head chef, Italy 1 Camberwell has been reborn into a modern Italian café with the freshest seasonal produce. Offering simple, well executed food with strong flavours and distinct personality in an uncomplicated and relaxed atmosphere. Let our friendly, attentive staff tend to your needs while the kitchen whisks your tastebuds on a flavoursome journey of Italian inspired creations.

The menu selections are excellent, particularly their risottos, whether it be mushroom or the seafood variety using flu swimmer crab. Cannot you praise the calamari to highly, it is a beautiful concoction. I have always enjoyed the freshness of the food in this restaurant it is delightful succulent and always quality. My wife particularly enjoyed the Kris Pinot Grigio - clean and crisp, great for a hot day. Waiter service is excellent very attentive, supportive and personable. We particularly congratulate Keaton for his service he did a great job today we dined. All in all, we both praise this restaurant it is a great place to go and enjoy a first-class meal. Thoroughly recommended to anyone, as described above and you will enjoy the experience. It is somewhat expensive, but it is fine dining after all, and it is worth paying that little extra for great quality and great surroundings.

Reviewed By Marcia B - Box Hill, Australia
When I made a 6:30 booking I was informed we would need to leave by 7:30. It was the start of a very disappointing evening. The food was very westernised. The service was terrible. We were constantly interrupted with requests for decisions or clearing the table. Then to add insult to injury, we were told to leave even though there were two empty tables close by.
I would definitely not recommend this restaurant.
6. Sketches Cafe Bar
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 49 reviews
With its improvements in recent years, Sketches is no longer a little cafe with a small dining space, but a cafe-restaurant with adequate dining spaces for either intimate indoor, trendy alfresco or casual outdoor dining. Transforming between cafe and restaurant settings allows us to cater for both casual catch-ups in the day and fine-dining on special occasions at night.Whilst our menu is categorized as modern Australian, essentially we are a team that is passionate about fresh produce with an open-mind to any great food ideas regardless of where they originate from. Expect to see not just the all-time Australian favorites, but also modern international influences throughout our menu.No matter which setting or menu you choose the staff at Sketches will always ensure you have a great time dining here. We look forward to seeing you at Sketches!

Housed in the heritage listed Canterbury Post Office, The Maling Room offers breakfast, lunch and award winning coffee.
Reviewed By StephenAn - Greater Melbourne, Australia
Our daughter and her family were in Melbourne so she suggested we go there for a late breakfast, All six of us were very happy with the service and the food. I had a BLT on Turkish bread which was excellent. My wife had fruit bread - it was thick with a generous amount of fruit. We didn't make a booking but were lucky they could accommodate us. They told us that the table we were on was booked at 11 am so as that was an hour away we decided to stay. Service was prompt and the timing was fine. We are within easy walking distance and we will use it more often. Maling road has a number of competing restaurants which has improved quality.

Very good, well established Italian restaurant opposite the Rivoli cinema. Wonderful art deco décor. Somewhat limited menu (a good thing) plus specials. Well-priced, very good home cooking along with straightforward service. The special of the day, pan-fried snapper, was delicious. Recommended for very good food and service.

This is a funky little cafe in among other little funky shops in Mont Albert. Nice indoor space and a lovely outdoor area as well. Coffee was ok, the selection of cakes was great, with friendly and obliging staff, it made a pleasant start to our day.

This cafe is in one of the prettiest little nurseries in Victoria. Sit on the deck on a chill free Melbourne day to enjoy a delicious meal or just a drink and you can't go wrong. The Barista is first class. We have been coming here for our daily coffee and it is delightful. Staff are so friendly and have lots of deliciously prepared treats freshly made to enjoy. Beautifully presented as well.
