    Julia's is a wonderful restaurant that we always go to for special occasions. Their food is outstanding and very tasty and hot in temperature. The service is always spot on with friendly and attentive customer service. The wine and cocktails are always very cold and a great range to choose from. I highly recommend trying Julia's you won't be disappointed.

    The Hills is my favourite place for a drink. It has a warm, sophisticated vibe (think artwork and candlelight), great selection of wine, sides and gourmet pizza (I particularly recommend the salmon pizza). What really makes this place a winner for me, though, is the service: they are warm, welcoming and really know their wines! I've brought friends many times to The Hills; this evening I brought my parents, and the lovely manager greeted me by name and thoroughly charmed my folks. This bar is one of Melbourne's best.
