Memento Lounge & Bistro

Great spot for breakfast. Have really enjoyed every dish I’ve had here and the staff are super friendly.

They also have buffet option if that’s what you’re after.

It’s hidden inside the Mantra so they could do with a sandwich board outside to entice people in for breakfast.

I’d also recommend fitting some kind of divider to the back of the seating to separate from the reception and make it a bit cosier but the seating is comfortable.

Perfect way to start the day

Had the perfect breakfast this morning. Love the salami, style hot sausages. The stuff was delightful. We were waiting to be seated in the the chef went out of his way to see us. But best of all was the latte! I asked the barista what her secret was… And she said… “ Thousands of coffees, and, of course, great beans”.

Wow Pretty amazing here with reasonably good quality of food and price tag! Service is good, a bit cosy and good for small groups.

Environment is good, not crowded, fast service, acceptable food serving time, food is amazing! I will definitely come back again!

Very nice food and service. The ice cream is notably excellent.

Great value and great tasting food in the hotel lobby. We called in on a whim and this was hard to beat for the price.

We stayed at The Mantra so having a restaurant on your doorstep is always a good thing for those evenings we didn't want to step outside. It is only small but food was lovely. They didn't have everything we originally ordered due to unavailability which was disappointing. Service was good and there is a happy hour 4-7pm where you can buy cheaper drinks (always a bonus). My 4 star rating was because the restaurant is in the foyer of the hotel and you felt very much in the hotel not as a separate restaurant so I felt it lacked atmosphere.

Was staying at the Mantra so decided to give this place a go. Turned out to be a very nice meal.

What's more is that my wife is a coeliac which can make eating out difficult. However, the staff were accommodating and she did not experience any reaction which is great.

Given the location and quality of food I also thought the price was quite reasonable.

Lunch deals really good, rare to have sit down place in that part of city with lunch and drink for $15. I had vegan pasta which was delicious. Other options look really good too. Well done with the new menu

Delicious food and friendly service. The restaurant was packed but staff were attentive and had time to chat with us. Cosy little atmosphere, good for a home cooked style meal.

I love this place. Food and service is excellent, it's not noisy, and the decor is super comfy! I meet friends here all the time. Highly recommended!

Amazing food with a low price. Love the chips!!

Came up from Melbourne and meet with family. The night was great, after a small problem with a Groupon voucher, the service and food was excellent and the staff very friendly, would recommend highly

Stopped in for breakfast. $20 for all you can eat buffet is an amazing value for the area. Friendly service and great food get my recommendation for Memento

Amazing service, great food, all around perfect place for a dinner with friends. I especially commend Tom for his awesome bartending and service. :)

Great service and lunch menu. Nice atmosphere but not very spacious for larger gatherings.

Adam the waiter was one of the best I've ever come across. Friendly and good at his job. Needs to be acknowledged for his work

Fab little eatery in the Mantra. Great for the CBD and not over the top expensive. Food was actually lovely

Good food, reasonable prices, good service, nice relaxed atmosphere.

Amazing service and reasonably priced. A big shout out to the amazing staff especially Molly and Danny
