Review: We visit this place every time we go to Melbourne because we know we will get good quality, hearty and nutritious food that tastes good and is a pleasure to eat.
The service is variable depending on who is working there, but it's always friendly and our food has always been prepared fairly quickly, even when they're busy. A lot of the staff are volunteers or new to the hospitality industry.
The Japanese omelette is very interesting and tasty.....and morish. It seems popular too, as there are usually a few coming out of the kitchen in the time we spend there.
The soy chai can be outstanding or average, we've had both.
It's worth checking out the Lentil As Anything website to get a full understanding of what the concept is all about.
Pros: nutritious * the philosophy * nice vibe
Cons: * * |

Review: Having read the previous reviews for this restaurant....we arrived 2 hours before the gig we were going to in St.Kilda and braced ourselves for nonchalent staff....well we couldn't have been more wrong... the food (3different curries, salad,roti, rice,and yoghurt for two people) arrived within ten minutes of ordering and the staff were friendly, chatty and interested in what we thought of the food... which, incidently, was absolutely delicious. So much time to spare we had to go buy another bottle of wine to pass the time...such is life!
Pros: gr8 food * quick service * good vibe
Cons: * * |

Review: St Kilda Lentil as Anything is the best of the Lentil chain as far as food goes. Always a great meal comes out, even if the service is not the best. I find it kind of crazy that they don't put more effort into the service since they rely on peoples discretion to descide how much they will pay for their meal!
One day i went there when I had a 1 hour break. I was the only one in the store and ordered straight away. I then waited 45mins for my meal to be served and i had to scoff it and leave to get to work. The chef just didn't start cooking it. I was quite annoyed. I only paid enough that i thought it would cover the cost of the ingredients because it was crappy service. Lucky it was really nice food when it arrived, and it did JUST arrive in time for me to get back to work...
The food always tastes great!
Pros: Economical * Great veg food * location
Cons: service record not great * * |
