  Had a lovely dinner at St LuJa, with just the right about of meat and greens! Ordered their steak, mac and cheese croquettes, cos salad and pulled pork tacos – everything was great, except I think the mac and cheese croquettes should have more cheese flavour to it! Great place by the St Kilda beach too!

  We were given a voucher by St Luja to check the place out. Immediately upon entry I was impressed, how was there a cool speakeasy style bar in Melbourne that I was unaware of? Great ambiance and the Art Deco styling was right up my alley and reminiscent of the hidden bars in Europe that I so love.

  The waiter who spoke to us explained they are a cocktail bar with a wide range of whiskey that can often change and as they dont like to waste paper reprinting menus the staff are well versed in the offerings so can explain whats on hand. I enjoyed the environmentally friendly vibe but he generosity didnt particularly extend to the plating. There wasnt a lot of calamari on the entree but if you pick your night right you do get better value eg $20 steak and wine on Thursday night.
  We went for the steak anyway at $32 and I found it a little under seasoned and the jus very thin and watery.

  For me I think this place has amazing atmosphere and is well worth a visit but perhaps stick to drinks and avoid dinner as their expertise seems to lie in mixology
