• An old favourite.

I noticed that nobody has reviewed this place since 2013, so I guess I'll write something here! The first time I came here would have been around 2008, when I initially became vegetarian. It was the first time I'd heard of an all veg restaurant, so I went down on the weekend with another veggie friend from school to check it out. The place was very small but completely empty, and they only had one food option, a burger, which I thought was okay but nothing special. I didn't come back here for a long time after this, because it was quite far from where I lived and I didn't think it was worth it. In 2013 my boyfriend moved to St Kilda, about a 2 minute walk from Lentils. We ended up eating here weekly, as it had changed so much and was absolutely wonderful. They did various curries, the burger (which I still think is average) and some other dishes. The okonomiyaki, pea and potato curry and pumpkin curry were the highlights for me. I think they also do a breakfast but I was never up early enough for it! The coffee was always really good too. I haven't eaten here in a while, as my boyfriend no longer lives in St Kilda, and every time I do happen to be in the area there is a massive line out the front. The restaurant is tiny and is extremely popular now, and I could never be bothered waiting in the line. However, if you do pass here and the line isn't big, I would highly recommend stopping in. It's a great place with a lovely atmosphere and really nice food.
