    The food was amazing. We did not feel ripped off. The drinks list was also incredible. I had the cocktail special, and it was so good, I had another! The service was impeccable. All the staff were friendly and fun, without being overwhelming. It was a very packed restaurant, but the staff didn't seem stressed. Overall it was a great experience and we will be back.

    We went as a group of four on a weeknight. Wolfe and Malone was recommended to us by one of our friends after seeing it in the newspaper. The staff are attentive and lovely. The food was spectacular, unique flavours and combinations that are fresh with surprising twists to most loved ingredients for example, rhubarb ketchup. They have an extensive list of drinks of varying prices so there’s a lot to choose from

    We had such a wonderful evening. We were greeted with such warmth and this continued throughout the evening. The menu is simple but this only speaks to how much thought is put into each dish. Our waitress was very helpful with portion size explanations and how much food we would need. We ended up having 3 course each (as we couldn’t agree on a dessert haha). The food was perfect. Such well balanced flavours and textures. You really can see the detail put into every element. Even the side asks was well balanced and thought out. Presentation of the restaurant is not as elegant as the food but it did not diminish the experience.

    What a wonderful place for a dinner date. The food was incredible, the ambiance was lovely but the best part of all was the service! We couldn't be more happy with the waitress. She was attentive, polite, knowledgeable and very friendly. We have noticed such a change in service since Covid 19 when out for dinner, but not from Wolfe & Malone. We were more than impressed! Thank you to the lovely older lady that served us and for making our date night extra special

    Dani Valent's review sparked our interest and Wolfe & Malone did not disappoint! What a gem this place is. None of us live in the area and it was worth the trip! Staff were friendly and attentive, including our waitress Jenny, who was warm, obliging and knowledgeable. We were spoilt for choice with both food and wine and Jenny happily assisted with our choices - a selection of small and large plates to share. We could not pick a favorite! Each dish was creative, flavorful and thoughtfully prepared; the meats cooked to perfection. Being a veggie lover, I was delighted with the abundance of vegetables on the menu including the aptly named "rabbit food", and the exquisite Brussels sprouts side which could possibly convert any 'sprout-hater' out there. And you must start with either the milk buns or burrata (or both!). Luckily there is always room for dessert because they were equally delicious! Thank you Wolfe & Malone. We'll be back!

    I've been to this restaurant a few times now because it is consistently excellent. Produce quality, interesting seasonal menu, a great selection of good wines, knowledgeable service and fantastic food on the table. I've gone with my husband, a large group of girlfriends and a small family group and its been great every time. I can't recommend too highly - it could certainly compete with anything in CBD. Bentleigh is lucky to have this gem.

    Wolf and Malone never disappoints. They are well deserving of the chef’s hat they have recently received. The exciting menu and changing cuisines really give the impression that the head chef is a passionate artist and we are lucky enough to get to eat the masterpieces. Service was personable and attentive, as always.

    Having heard great reviews was just a little disappointing. Service was good, and some dishes were very good, the kangaroo is a must and pig ears really nice. But the duck liver terrine was a very confused dish, the chicken a little bland and the side of chips were some of the worst we have had,not sure how you get chips wrong? Also couldn't quite get our head around a wine bar not having more than 1 sauv blanc available, and the one that was was from Greece! Let's support local.

    Wolfe & MoloneResponded on December 22, 2022Hi Jim, Thanks for the feedback, we're sorry you & your guests were disappointed with the experience you had with us.Please note that the Chicken Parfait was not a duck terrine it is a softer and smother version of pate, the Chips would have tasted different as they were Cassava Chips not potato they are more dense than regular chips. We are changing our list over, you should have been advised of this if you were wanting a Sauvvy B we would have suggested a delicious alternative. Apologies again

    My wife and I visited as first timers having just moved to the area, we could not have been made feel more welcome and accommodated upon arrival and that theme continued to our leaving some 2 hrs later without faultering. The service was very friendly and engaging, intuitive, attentive and helpful but never intrusive. The wonderful food and drinks menus provide enough choice without overwhelming and with an entre and 2 mains shared, we finished with the 3 cheese platter to be perfectly content, book ended by a negroni and a recommended riesling that matched the end of evening to a tee. This venue is so deserving of the great reviews it consistently receives and what drew us in to try. This will surely be a regular for us and I compel anyone curious to put in on their must try list. This place truly is a gem.
