My third visit to Yiaga, and once again it was the best experience. Everything is perfect, the food of course is fabulous as is the wine list and cocktails. My highlight though are the wonderful staff members who are so knowledgeable and always just delightful. Can’t wait to return again!

The food was absolutely incredible, with every dish explained by the fantastic staff, who were knowledgeable, passionate and happy to answer every question we had. The views overlooking the beautiful city of Melbourne were simply stunning, but what really made the experience special was the staff. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel genuinely welcome, It wasn’t just a meal; it was a whole experience. Outstanding food, incredible views and exceptional service. An experience we won’t forget!

We had such a lovely evening at Hazel! The food was absolutely delicious, and the staff were incredibly friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. We opted for the chef’s selection and thoroughly enjoyed the variety of dishes and flavours throughout the night. The atmosphere was beautiful and made for a really special dining experience. Would definitely recommend and look forward to coming back!

Jacob was our waiter and hats off to him!! He remembered a comment I’d made last time I was there - that it would be great if staff waited by the table for just a couple of seconds until we looked at him/her. It’s far less of a startling interruption and way more respectful. Jacob remembered and did this. It was a pleasure! Great staff member!
