After making a spontaneous trip to see Mount Dandenong over Easter, we decided to have some lunch and look around. It was only 12pm and the cafe linked to the Restaurant was already sold out of most things and the pre-made cool fridge was practically empty. We were offered to have a seat in the restaurant. After watching the staff... More

Unfortunately the food was horrible! Soggy, sloppy pasta which was not edible, and espresso coffee with residue... Not pleasant. The staff however are fantastic! Very friendly and happy to help. More

Cosy restaurant with outdoor seating available. The weather was perfect to be able to lunch outdoors. The menu was a bit limited for choice, but the food was good. Ordered a rocket salad with walnuts, prosciutto and watermelon sorbet. As the sorbet melted it provided a sweet contrast to the vinaigrette dressing. The servings are a decent portion. The scenery...

I am not to sure what to give this Restaurant. For starters the location is a prime location to bring visitors to, and on a clear day is rather spectacular. When we went into the Restaurant we were greeted with the most obnoxious idiot of a staff member. The bloke was condescending and as we were roughly 15 minutes early... More

For spectacle alone this place wins. A super place to take visitors on a clear day to show them Melbourne. Food is OK, and fair value but it's the location that wins. More

No matter the weather the trip to Sky High is well worth the winding roads, the tall trees and the friendly locals. More

The view was spectacular, even on a cool and rainy night. The food was exquisite; we shared an olive bread entree, pork and steak for mains and strawberry mousse and raspberry vacherin for dessert. It was all cooked beautifully and the desserts were mind-blowing, so much flavour! The service was good and the staff were friendly. However, all of this... More

We arranged to meet some colleagues here, on arrival we were charged $5 to park, I realise that many people may visit for the view but they could at east refund the parking on your bill. We dutifully and entered and waited by the “Wait here to be seated sign” we waited and waited whilst three or four members of... More

The staff are not friendly and acted as though they had never served customers before. Very disappointed as I had been looking forward to going to this place for a long time. Not interested in going back anytime soon. More
