Best Romantic Restaurants in Somerville

A Top Class Restaurant. Totally consistent in all areas of cuisine. We look forward to our visit very soon.

First, a confession: Assaggini is one of our favourite restaurants, so we came prepared to be delighted. We weren't disappointed, though! This was a birthday dinner for my partner and the attentiveness of the staff - including a surprise dessert birthday treat - made the occasion special. The menu is always entertaining and innovative. From the oysters with a mignonette dressing and Spanish anchovies we had as entrees, to the char-grilled prawns and pork-belly pasta mains, each dish delighted. Another feature - that we noted - was the pacing. There was plenty of time to chat to each other and savour the occasion. The wines, particularly Polperro's Heathcote Even Keel shiraz, were delivered promptly and complimented the meal beautifully.

Wonderful food and great value! Excellent ambiance, and the service was amazing, especially considering how busy it was being the unofficial Melbourne Cup long weekend! Highly recommend!

Food was fantastic, service was excellent, will definitely be back

One of the best! Ordain is a true gem: friendly and welcoming staff and an amazing chef. Amazing! Every time we go we have a great time and a memorable meal, and always with locally sourced ingredients. It's quickly becoming our go-to, not just for special occaisions, but date nights, drinks with friends, our home away from home.
