“Great location, vibe and service”
Reviewed 1 week ago

We arrived on Saturday night without a booking so were pleased that they were able to accommodate us. The menu does not have a large selection but enough to appeal to most. I ordered the barramundi and was pleased to see that it had a nice crispy skin. The fish tasted very good and the fennel (cooked and uncooked) was... More

“GREAT LOCATION, AVERAGE STEAK”
Reviewed 2 weeks ago

Ate at Ludlow on a Monday night and got the "Steak Night" special. It wasn't special. More like a down market pub meal. Pretty average at best. Wait staff were great, drinks menu is extensive and the location on South Bank is also good.

Reviewed 13 April 2017 via mobile

Great position right on the banks of the Yarra in a sheltered position that catches any sunshine, lovely food & the $20 chefs special and glass of wine or beer is a bargain.

“Great Tuesday Ribs Night!”
Reviewed 12 April 2017

Walking past, our eyes caught the Tuesday Ribs Deal for $20 including a glass of house wine. Definitely worth a visit. The ribs were tender and served with crispy onion rings. Southbank has a plethora of great restaurants catering for every need. However, sometimes you just want to enjoy a meal that doesn't cost a small fortune. Service was prompt... More

“Drinks by the river”

Meet a friend for drinks at Ludlows. Nice little spot. Service was a tad slow but they had a good casual wine selection and the views and people watching were great. Easy to get to if you're in downtown Melbourne.
