   Loved the food and service. We dined early to get to the theatre on time, service was fast. Noisy space but fun eclectic style

   Not so good for couples , have to sit in the little landing at the front door perched at the stairs leading down into the restaurant that you don’t get to sit in . 6 courses in 50mins also hard to fathom , literally next course coming out before you have finished the last so no time to talk as constantly have food in your mouth :) Good for groups though I am sure , food was pretty good , staff nice .

   Brunch amd service was good, however the bottomless cocktails had hardly alcohol in them. I drank 6 and could have driven home.

   Staff were friendly and very accommodating with dietary requirements. Food was amazing and really good value (we had the pre-theatre set menu). Highly recommend visiting and look forward to returning there myself.

   We had the Vego Feed Me menu. Was delicious and the right amount of food! Note that it's not the exact menu they have online, there are some changes to it. The disappointment of the night was that we were seated close to the entrance and the door doesn't shut properly. This meant we had a very cold draught hit us evert time people entered/exited. We had to get up every 5 minutes (if not more often!), to shut the door as people exiting / entering didn't shut it properly. Ended up quite annoying by the end of the night! Would recommend you request not to sit there.

    Book ahead! This place is very popular and they were turning people away every 2 minutes. The food was fantastic as was the service. It is not a quiet place, it is vibrant and humming but not overwhelming. We went for pre-theatre dinner and they were very efficient. There was plenty of food. I couldn't recommend this more but do yourself a favour and book ahead

    Due to the door being locked right at the time of service, myself and others seated around the door were constantly getting up to let late comers in which was very disruptive to the experience. I had to get up at least 3 times myself and the other table had to get up at least 4 or 5 times to let latecomers inside. The food was fantastic, I can not fault the food at all. Some of the staff seemed to stress to smile. The drinks tasted weak and were not to the standard that I expected from Bodega Underground.

    My friends and I indulged in the $55 meat/vegan feed me menu which was delicious. Each meal had plenty of flavour and the vegan elote and vegan zucchini tacos were a stand out. The cabbage and pumpkin was also super tasty. You get served heaps of food and you’ll definitely be full by the forth and fifth course. The drinks were very delicious, highly recommend the elderflower and aloe drink and tequila shots on arrival. Would recommend this restaurant to anyone!

    I was super excited to find a fully gluten free restaurant in the area we wanted to have dinner, I booked months out. As someone with a lot of allergies on top of gluten, I wrote that in my booking, as we booked a set menu dinner, if they couldn’t accommodate, we could have cancelled the booking. The wait staff were excellent in trying to make sure I didn’t get anything I couldn’t eat, but it did leave me only get a small amount of food, and not getting the dessert course. I still had to pay for the entire set meal, even though all I got, was maybe half of what I should have, (a corn, plain corn chips, and plain hot chips) while my group enjoyed other things like beef tacos, fish tacos, and even churros for dessert Very disappointed

    The flavour of the food wasn't balanced and some weird combinations. The service was average - slow and laissez-faire. Definitely not value for money there are other restaurants that offer better value, flavour and service for less $.

    After reading great reviews and planning to visit Bodega for a special date night we were sadly very disappointed with our experience. On a Friday night, there is only two set menu options. We had to flag down staff for attention to be able to order and we’re started with the incorrect set menu, whilst this wasn’t a big deal, the staff were very passive and unhelpful when we requested to receive our correct orders. Not once did staff ask us for drink orders, how our night was going or if things were up to standard. The menu we were served was different to what is advertised online and there was no visual on the hard copy menu either to display the changes. None of this was explained to us at the beginning, we had to ask ourselves with little explanation. We received no apology for the change in menu and continued to be served with disinterest and passive behaviour. At this stage in the night after no check ins or service offered we were told whilst dessert was served that we had to vacate the table in 10 minutes for the next booking. It was very clear that they were more interested in their turn over rather than the individual patrons. Having both worked in the hospitality industry and being in our early twenties we sympathised at the start and tried to find reason for their lack of attentiveness but that quickly dwindled away when we were dismissed when simply asking questions about the menu and were instead rushed through our sitting. We will not be returning and left the venue disappointed.

    Really good food and the staff were all friendly, helpful and efficient without being in your face. Drinks menu a bit limited, although the specialist Mezcal menu looked interesting (maybe next time?). My one complaint would be the table location, which caught the draft every time the door opened. The small metal stools were not very comfortable. Overall had a good time though and would go back again.

    The Pre-Theatre dinner menu is my new favourite must-do for Melbourne. The quality and quantity of the food was fantastic and left us plenty of time to get to our show.

    It was a great venue. Good food . We had the pre theatre set menu, but unfortunately the dessert menu was too long coming so we didn’t have time to eat it. Bit disappointing as this was booked as a restaurant serving pre Hamilton meal.

    Food was good, corn and veg dishes were excellent. The group were disappointed with the lamb dish which was average and over sauced. And being told they had 15mins left of their booking with no prior notice, felt rushed out. Staff did their best but could have explained which dietary dishes were which as we had one person miss a course.
