Saint Germain

We really have nothing to say except that it definitely ticks all the boxes - from their friendly service, to the seamless quality of food; even the ambience and the aesthetic of this restaurant can’t be beaten in the West!
With a menu made to share the way we love, dip your toes into a Mediterranean inspired experience and get yourselves those mouth watering lamb cutlets and damn good honey coated carrots! 😚🤌🏼

Great to have this more upmarket venue in Altona. Stylish fit out with a nice ambiance.

We went for dinner on a Saturday night and was one of only a few tables so hopefully they start picking up soon.

Cocktails were amazing, particularly the Amaretto sour.

Food wise we ordered the cheese board, arancini, lamb cutlets and heirloom carrots, all was delicious especially the carrots and the lamb.

Service was friendly and welcoming.

Can't wait to come back for another cocktail on a warm afternoon.

Beautiful food, space and service.

Order small as alot come out!

Great place to come for an occasion, afternoon drinks with friends or relaxing lunch🥰

Very cool place! Vast wine menu and some delicious menu items. Chicken skewers were delectable, I love the salsa verde being used not only for presentation, but also as a dipping sauce.

Staff were all wonderful and welcoming!

This place is such a vibe. 😎🙏
An absolute must during Summer, come for a few cocktails and sharing appetizers, and stay for the chilled music, sunset and views.

If this was in South Melbourne, St Kilda or Williamstown, this would book out months in advance. Come and try this new Altona staple, soon!

Large, clean, double storey building with bar and toilet upstairs. Plenty of free 2 hour parking nearby. Happy Hour cocktails were tasty and well made. Good share plate menu. Enjoyed mixed bruschetta and cheese platters. Gluten free available. Desserts were delicious and reasonably priced. Friendly, efficient staff.

The food here is so delicious, I love to get at a few different tapas items off the menu and cant go past the lamb cutlets or the cauliflower. Tbh everything is pretty yumm. The cocktails are really good. You get a really nice view of the sunset if you come during the evening.

Delicious food. We had the meatballs, chicken skewers, green bean salad and honey carrots. All of them were beautifully flavoursome and cooked perfectly. Perfect summer sharing food. We also had a mojito and amaretto sour - also excellent. It's great to be able to get this kind of food and cocktails in Altona. We also love the light bright decor and big open windows letting the summer air in.
My only suggestion to the owners would be to update the menu seasonally as this would definitely make us come more often. You have great chefs so back them to impress with a change up sometimes.

Went there on the first night, this place is bloody great. Could be the best bar/restaurant in Altona if they continue their consistency. Chicken skewers with salsa verde were incredibly memorable and worth coming back for.

Only suggestion to the owner - have a bit more variety in price point for wine and especially champagne. If I wanted to have a nicer night, there aren't higher end options for me except Laurent Perrier. Normally you will have say 1 cheaper(less than $50), 2 medium($50-100), 2 higher quality bottles($150+) in each variety to choose from, not 5 medium.

We dropped in for drinks and food on a Saturday afternoon. The staff were welcoming and the decor was gorgeous. Got a couple of the share platters- there is a good vegetarian option. But the highlight was my margarita!

Wow what a breathe of fresh air this is to the main streets of Altona!! Great wine, very well priced cocktails and VEGAN FOOD! Fabulous staff and service with a beautiful view upstairs👌🏼 Welcome Saint Germain, so happy to have you 💘 I will be back very soon 🤗

The food and wait staff earned this place 5 stars on their own! My only criticism is I'd love to see some mocktails or alcohol free wine on the menu otherwise could not fault my experience.

Absolutely gorgeous place, very friendly and interactive staff. Food is very Mediterranean in style and tastes amazing, was also extremely surprised with the price as i was expecting to pay at least $25 for anything and ended up getting a vegetarian platter for 2 for only 18. Definitely am coming back.

Love this place! Great, friendly service, consistently delicious food and a lovely setting that feels special. We took our family here for mother's day today and everyone enjoyed it. Definitely check it out if you haven't already.

Such a warm and welcoming vibe every time! Staff are always super friendly and the food + cocktails are amazing. Altona needs more places like this !!

This restaurant is such a vibe! Such a nice space to have a drink and food. And the food is amazing too! Definitely recommend coming here if you’re in Altona.

Food was amazing, plenty of great sharing options and plates. Service was great.

Interior design and layout was extremely well done. Loved the full length roof skylighting.

Amazing delicious food. Fabulous service. Yummy cocktails especially when Happy Hour is on 6pm to 7pm.

Went there with two mates, ordered 5 - 6 dishes and every single one was amazing. Really friendly staff and great vibe, 10/10 - best restaurant in Altona.

Food was excellent. We chose a selection of shared plates for four. Younger crowd vibes but our 12 and 15 year olds were fine. Just book and enjoy
