mr curtis

nice spot with agoodatmosphere however the service & food is a bit underwhelming. food is really just tapas however overpriced & fairly simple. they also seemed understaffed being quite slow with the service, despite being nice.

nice place for an afternoon drink on a warm day. i ordered the pimms and it was really refreshing.

ordered food but wasnt a huge fan of the lamb meatballs i had. but it wasnt because there was anything wrong with it, i think i just just dont like the taste it had because i dont love lamb. plus not a huge fan of feta either. but thought i would give it a try. would happily go back to eat something else as other menu items lookedgoodthough.

the warm flatbread that came with it was delicious. had some herbs and oil on it. i really enjoyed that. for what you get, $18 is a prettygoodprice too.

would return for sure, especially for drinks and light snacks. amazing view from the balcony too.

love the vibe of this place and the best views in mt martha overlooking the beach. great for a relaxing, lazy afternoon. we found the food selection limited (relative to other cafes but surprising given the super tiny kitchen!!) the menu we were given was definitely more limited than the menu that has been uploaded on zomato. it was also slightly on the pricey side for the portion sizes, although the food was generally good. the mini burgers had a nice amount of spice to them, and the blt had a nice crunch to it. saganaki wasgoodalso. coffee won’t be the best you’ve had but is ok. i’d come here again - but it would be more for a relaxing afternoon with great views.

this place is a joke. i said i was allergic to lemon and they brought out my saganaki with a giant lemon. once we ordered we waited for 15 minutes to be told that what we ordered was no longer available then we ordered something else another 15 minutes passed and another waiter comes to tell us we couldn’t order that either. then once we ordered meals that were actually available we had to wait for over an hour for mini burgers and corn chips with toppings. when leaving they had the audacity to charge us for the food that we didn’t even get. seriously if you can’t keep up with food don’t serve it. we all work hard and want to enjoy the holidays and it’s one thing for a meal to take time it’s another to no havegoodcustomer service. very disappointing!

agoodselection of very tasty food. some are more my cup of tea than others but at the end of the day. all delicious and great location overlooking the ocean whilst having a meal. this is is agoodhangout spot whilst in the area for breakfast

cosy place withgooddecor. liked the soup of the day and the coffee, but i'm left wondering why its rating is so high (4.2 as of writing).
views are excellent and prices are fair too but no one on the table raved about their dish.
note that the location on the first floor means two flights of stairs up to reach the cafe.

i really wanted to give this place agoodreview.... ... but i can't. yes, the place has great atmosphere, with nice bay views and funky furniture, the food is prettygoodand the staff are nice. the problem is the place completely struggled to keep up on a moderately busy saturday evening. once tables filled up, service was very slow, wrong orders were brought out, some of the servers were clueless about the wine list and we eventually canceled an order for a cheese platter after more than an hour of waiting. surrounding tables had similar grumbles. the wait staff were clearly working hard, but still gracious and apologetic. clearly the problem was not with the wait staff, it was unprofessional management.

like the setting, not sure about the food. went to mr curtis for sunday breakfast for the first time, coffee wasgoodbut the open toastie was ordinary at best. the mt martha cured ham tasted and looked like ordinary sliced ham from a supermarket, not off the bone ham that i was expecting. the bread wasn't toasted which meant the tomato and ham were both cold and the bread soggy. i only ate about half of mine as it was so unappetizing. my partner who is a eggs benedict kind of guy struggled to find anything inspiring on the menu and he too ordered the toastie but was also unimpressed. this is a great setting, comfortable with lovely views but the food was just notgoodenough.

friendly, intimate, and all-round phenomenal - that's mr curtis all summed up.  hidden in a two-storey shophouse with no visible signs, save for a crochet-covered bike parked outside, this is the lesser known gem of mount martha that you need to try, stat. in the daytime, it functions as a beautifully lit café overlooking the coastline, with french doors leading out to a verandah.  but, come nightfall, mr curtis transforms into an exotic tapas restaurant / winebar. get comfortable on one of its cushion-dotted benches, and unbutton your jeans, because a feast awaits.    with chicken ribs so delicious they make my heart palpitate, this funky little eatery has certainly earned its spot on my list of top   restaurants to visit  in melbourne .  who could possibly say 'no' to somegoodold guacamole (aud$13.50)? let's face it - not me.  fresh, zesty and a little too damn addictive, i found myself shovelling heaps of this stuff on my corn chip. yum.  the fragrant lamb mince  (aud$12.50) came

went for lunch last thursday with a friend. loved the decor, staff brilliant, food average although the turkish bread was fantastic. most disappointing was the mt martha hippy sewing circle members taking up a large table with their current project. not agoodlook or appropriate for the enjoyment of diners. wouldn't bother again.

hurrah a grown up bar. delightfully funky fit-out, with lots of really nice touches; the pastel plate ware, 60s coloured glass water glasses & jugs, nest tables, blankets for the verandah etc etc

the place can be packed on weekend mornings & the tiny kitchen/service area does agoodjob at pumping out meals and coffee, but don't expect miracles.

all in all wonderful atmosphere and quite possibly the best spot on the peninsula for a sunset glass of vino.

came to mr curtis for dessert and loved this place will defo go back
