Famous to all international students particularly in South East Asia and inspired copycat restaurants to incorporate Gyu Tan Don's (Grilled Ox Tongue on Rice) on their menu. Many graduated students return to Melbourne just to taste this in their mouth again.

Thai ๐น๐ญ
If you love Thai food, definitely must go and definitely must book. Boat noodles, Soft shell crab in Curry sauce, Thai Milk tea crepe cake, need I say more? They pretty much cover all the common Thai faves too and every dish packs a punch ๐๐ป๐ถ๏ธ๐ฅต so make sure you ask for less spicy or no spice if you can't handle it.

San Telmo

San Telmo's sister restaurant. Almost identical in menu bar a few starter items and side dishes but the most important, steaks, are the same. Pick whichever to go, based on convenience & distance to you.

My personal fave for premium steak in Melbourne albeit on the pricey side. Don't waste your time with Rockpool located inside Crown Hotel. Most of those food establishments bar Koko are simply overpriced and you can get quality better elsewhere for paying the same.
Can't go wrong if you go for the F1 Full blood Sher Wagyu if you're cool with digging a bit deep.
