Around South Yarra and Prahan, you’ll find hip cafes and interesting restaurants that cater to the crowd who come here for the shopping. Chapel Street, Commercial Road and High Street are very trendy, while things become fairly ritzy up towards Toorak Road.
Here are few of the great restaurants the southern suburbs have on offer:
Head in to the heart of South Yarra, to the iconic Chapel Street and you will find Cafe Greco. This established restaurant has resided in Chapel Street for over 15 years, delivering a consistently sumptuous Mediterranean menu and first class experience.
Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, Cafe Greco will tempt your tastebuds with everything from mouthwatering seafood delights, finely made pastas, kickstart coffees and a range of delicious desserts.

Don't let the amazing views and fixtures fool you, Bacash is here to appeal to its customers through food! Overlooking the beautiful Botanical Gardens, Bacash was well-known for its excellent seafood dishes, but the chefs have broadened the menu to appeal to more tastes.
Mussels Marinieres, Bouillabaisse, Pepper crushed Lamb Rump, Mushroom Pithivier and caramel and walnut mocha tart are just a few of the luscious dishes you can choose from. Complement these with something from the wine list, or ask your waiter for a suggestion.
One thing that keeps guests coming back to this restaurant (aside from the amazing food) is the way you can actually hold a conversation here. The acoustics of the building allow for conversation to flow, making for a truly enjoyable night out.

Reflecting the affluent surroundings of Toorak, Orita's is a piece of Japan tucked into a shopping arcade in Toorak Village. Rather than simply serving meals, Orita's goal is to use Japanese Cooking as a modern art form.
