Comments of Pink. The Restaurant
S. L.
We had some lovely non-alcoholic drinks and cocktails and colourful, healthy bowls. We enjoyed the decor - very cute! Staff were not very experienced and took a fairly long time to serve, despite being a quiet night. Overall enjoyed our experience.
V. M.
We came here for a friend’s birthday and the restaurant itself is quite underwhelming. I expected the general dining space to be as pretty and as well cared for as the insta sections.
The food wasn’t that great either, some of our party returned some dishes. A lot of that can be overlooked for a night out but overall it all just felt a bit gimmicky.
M. p.
What a experience!
My kids and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute and mouthful.
The staff (particularly the manager) went above and beyond to make our visit memorable.
The chocolate cherry dessert was phenomenal!
S. D.
Food was great, music was lovely, atmosphere is nice, needs improvement in service in regards to recieving all our meals at once. Only problem with our dinner last night was that one person did not get fed, he ordered the same meals as one of us, and a bowl of chips, 1 hour later still nothing…. Staff member handled the situation well at the end when we left unhappy. Pretty disappointed but hopefully you guys fix this!
S. J.
The staff was very friendly and good service. We girls had entertainment and took lovely pictures.
C. L.
The decor is gorgeous for Photos and the staff are fantastic! All so friendly and welcoming! I went for Lunch on Sunday and really enjoyed the food and the Cocktail jugs. The girls checked in regularly to make sure we were happy and made the whole experience so enjoyable! Will be back for sure!
B. M. P.
Second visit, this time choosing off the regular menu rather than the bottomless brunch.
Restaurant is highly inaccessible - for prams and wheelchairs.
Food is overpriced for what it is, but you pay for the pink bells and pink whistles anyway.
I brought my two little daughters and it was fine for kids, albeit the inaccessibility.
Drag queen was very hospitable, especially to the larger groups of women. Didn't really notice us.
All in all nice for a treat but food is nothing to write home about especially given the price.
z. p.
All the staff are very accommodating. 2 pink roses and 2 glasses of champagne were given to us to welcome our anniversary celebration. The place is really picture-worthy.
C. D. (.
Finally had a chance to check out this awesome restaurant and to say I'm obsessed is an understatement!! LOVED the vibe, the staff were really friendly and best of all the food actually tasted AMAZING - Highly recommend the pink curry (yum!). Will definitely be back soon!
R. H.
ITS PINK........
late night munchies hit and dessert was on the mind.
Amazing yummy dessert and cocktails-pink themed.
Afterwards photo shoot opportunities upstairs.
Its sweet, worth a check out for something different
A. M.
We had a great time at Pink. It was fun to go to a restaurant that is so heavily pink themed! The floral wall and decorations throughout the restaurant are beautiful. The staff were very friendly and attentive.
If you are a large group be mindful that the booths only seat up to 7 people. If you have more than 7 people there is only one large table for big groups in the whole restaurant, so book early.
If you like the flavour of rose water like I do, then you must try their garden of roses cocktail! Sweet but so delicious.
Don’t try the espresso martini though. I’m an espresso martini and coffee lover but unfortunately theirs was one of the worst I’ve tasted. It was a very bitter espresso flavour with froth on top.
The standard pizza base pizzas were delicious however if you’re gluten free, don’t order pizza. The gluten free base is still a work in progress and ours was very hard and tasteless. The manager was very accommodating however and apologised for this.
I can highly recommend the polenta chips though. They were delicious! We ordered multiple plates for our table.
All in all it was a fun experience at pink, there are a couple of improvements that could be made to perfect the gluten free pizza base and espresso martini’s however I would definitely return.
A. S.
Beautiful Pink restaurant- as the name suggests everything around here is pink. Lovely ambience and staff 👌
Come with your girl gang or set of friends to enjoy the pink vibrant restaurant for some lovely pizza, pasta, dessert etc.
While you are here you can also check their first floor which have few spots created for photo lovers, pose and get a photo clicked for a memory or to share on social media- use their hashtag #pinkvibesonly 🥰
J. C.
Great place! Such an Instagram worthy restaurant haha. Someone mention that it’s only good for the pictures and the food wasn’t worth it. I still went and the food was great, service was fast and nice. Definitely recommend it!
a. l.
The food was good, the venue gorgeous, and the staff were fantastic!! The girls made sure we had a great time!! Loved it!! 🥂
C. P.
I was not sure what to expect as there are many reviews on here that contrast but most of the bad ones only have 1 historical review. It does seem like there is some ‘bandwagoning’ occurring here too from people who have never attended. Therefore, we gave It a go and it was wonderful. We were genuinely impressed. Although we did have a musical to get to, the staff were polite and good was delicious. We intend to go there again and try out the cocktails soon! A must try!
A. C.
What a great night!!! Loved the food, cocktails and vibes. Staff were absolutely amazing and friendly. Food and drinks were on time and I highly recommend the tofu bao, eggplant steak and the daiquiri was my favorite. If you're in the CBD you have to try it :)
B. F.
A Restaurant that represents integrity and gives back to charity, what a beautiful alignment.
The food is instaworthy and the quality is high, thats really fresh and delicious. My chosen dish that I will go back for was the "Vegan from my head tomatoes Pizza" that is made with a cauliflower base that is also coloured pink from the veggie Beetroot. I had a really FUN night!!! Such a pretty venue. Perfect for date night, girls get together, hens, and mother daughter night out. xox

My 3 friends and I booked for my birthday.
Our booking was for 8:15pm and our table wasn’t ready so the man at the desk sent us upstairs to take some photos. When we came back down at 8:30 the man at the desk had forgotten who we were. After explaining, we were seated (our table had no cutlery) and ordered drinks.
We were brought water but no cups.
We ordered our food approx 8:40. We ordered 1x pink bao, 2x chicken tacos, 1x beef sliders.
At 8:55 we received the bao.
At 9:20 I enquired how long our food would be as we had another booking elsewhere at 10pm.
After a few waitresses had asked if we wanted more drinks, one was shocked to realise we hadn’t received our food. She went to find out what happened and the man from the desk came over and explained that our order had gone in at the same time as a large event upstairs and so this was the cause of the delay.
We finally received our food at 9:30 and had to rush to eat it as we needed to leave by 9:45 at the latest.
The food was yum but unfortunately we didn’t have time to finish it all and had indigestion from rushing.
The waitresses were apologetic but no compensation was offered.
I’m pretty disappointed as it made me feel unwell and disrupted my plans for the evening. Not sure if I’ll return.
Such a shame because the decor and the food were yummy.
Also they missed out on extra sales, we had planned on having dessert but obviously ran out of time.
*I have also sent this via their feedback email
L. C.
Pretty ib pink♡. Drinks are great, won't go for food .fun & great for photos 💕📸
S. M.
The food was good. But it took a very long time to get ready. Nice place for girls day out.
J. H.
Pretty chuffed about our pink lunch. Great place to hang out and lots of food for what you pay. High quality. Thanks to the manager for helping lift our bags up the stairs. Back to brisbane we go!
J. B.
Tonight was incredible!! The service and managers were down to earth, relatable and so friendly while maintaining professionalism. The food was delicious and I have allergies and they catered for it amazingly, while it being presented elegantly and so much pink!!! Thank you to the staff for your time and the 1000 photo opportunities we had and made the most of ☺️
K. S.
Absolutely incredible experience
Amelia tonight was absolutely fantastic with the service! Completely made our first night out of lock down experience!
J. L.
I went for a birthday lunch, beautiful interior all in Pink, good customer service from the waiter who took our order and the passionfruit mocktail that comes with the fairy floss, although it is small. Food is overpriced for what we ordered, taste ok (nothing wow) and it was abit cold. Drinks were great but that’s it. Not really worth the time and money.
h.
PINK PINK PINK PINK AND MORE PINK!
I had the Queens Benedict and it was so YUM! I would’ve never thought to have had all those things together but it was just delicious!
The cocktails have gone down a treat, especially the Pink Lemonade Vodka Punch and the White Watermelon Wonderland.
Perfect location to spend a pink lover’s birthday 💗
K. S.
A pink lover’s dream!!!
Celebrated my birthday here and was very impressed with the food, drinks and the decor.
Photo opportunities were great. Bottomless brunch is a great idea and we will definitely be back!
B. W.
Very creative menu of drinks and dessert!
The internal decorations is just so emersive, So PINK!
Nice place for friends gathering
G. B.
The restaurant is beautiful, great service and beautiful staff, we got here late by 25min and we got our dinner promptly and drinks before. Great opportunity for photos, instagramers you’ll LOVE it!!!
Also the general manager Luke Is amazing very helpful and friendly, Simon also taught us how to make fairy floss :)
💗💗💗
r. d.
Overpriced and underflavoured. The manager on duty was the highlight of the evening. He was lovely. The menu is on a badly photocopied a4 sheet of paper. The sweets section was white print on pink background and completely illegible. I suggested they be printed legible then placed under a plastic or glass table covering which would be covid safe and works well in other restaurants. Lastly we wanted to pay with 2 different cards as we had spent more than anticipated. They refused !! Sorry guys in pink!! I understand times are tough but...
A. D.
Wow 🤩 apart from the concept that my favourite colour PINK is a dedicated place of all things PINK!
I am totally amazed by the service the quality of the food which is tasty 👅 and highly inventive!
A place to return to, whether for the yummy 😋 food or the atmosphere and fabulous cocktails 🍹
Love 💕 love 💗
J. M.
Really good layout and menu. Mum and I had a great time and staff are great. We didn’t drink but mocktails were amazing! Good value.
E. G.
Amazing place couldn’t recommend more. Had the best birthday here, the manager and workers made me feel so special. Great customer service and yummy food/drinks! Shout out to Luke for making me feel like a princess on my special day!
E. M.
Took my wife here for the first time and we really like the vibe and the food. The restaurant is buzzing and the sliders were delicious. Had the beef brisket and the chicken adobo, and both were on point. The chips had a quite unique taste as well, it had a nice tangy taste to it. My wife also enjoyed the prawn bao buns and the quirky pink drinks.
A. A.
The restaurant was amazing set up, the theme was incredible. The food tasted great, very filling food we had ordered two mains and entrees and did not finish it all because the servings were quite large. Delicious and the drinks were all tasty
L. C.
I had an absolutely fabulous night and the bar service was outstanding. Very friendly staff especially Simon. I had a beautiful time and highly recommend this place!! Very very happy. Y’all amazing at pink and will definitely be returning! Very happening place!
H. K. P.
The food was good and the drinks were very well done!
H. V.
Pink was such an amazing experience. We had the flower rolls, which were not only pretty but also delicious and then I had the pink curry and my partner had the beef ribs (he said they were perfectly cooked).
Cocktails were also delicious and the staff very attentive.
Ok, another point I feel compelled to make is that I am in hospitality and I had read a lot of reviews from people on here before I went and to be honest, there is clearly someone trying to attack this business as i can not see a 1 or 2 star review experience here whatsoever and in fact I told the manager this and that is why I felt compelled to make this review.
Keep up the great work Pink. There is nothing like you in Melbounrne, if not Australia and you are quite a special experience! 💗
Y. R.
This place is amazing to go with girl friends, we loved the experience and how the restaurant is, everything is Pink completely pink even our food were pink. If you love it you love it !
T. S.
Absolute little gem found in melbs. AMAZING BAO 😍, and even better cocktails! You definitely need to pop on down to the magical hideaway and take ALL the photos with the most incredible pink decor! And incredible staff xx
K. B.
Best customer services. Special shout out to Luke, Simon and Sophie and the other staff members on Easter Sunday! Can’t wait to come back when we’re in Melbourne! Pretty in pink 💖 even the tequila tastes pink 💖
K. O.
Amazing food and drinks, beautiful atmosphere!!! Simon was super nice and looked after us so well! Cant rate it any better! Definitely will be coming back!The general manager was also amazing and super lovely!!!
K. R.
Had such lovely service here. Every one was so nice which makes the experience so much better. We got served by Sophie in particular and she was so amazing and was helping us to have the best food, drinks and time!
S. D.
My avo bouquet was delicious and the fusion of flavours were transcendent. The cocktails my friends and I enjoyed were fruity and we had a very nice time. Thank you for your hospitality. My name is Earl.
L. S.
The atmosphere and the pink vibe is amazing. Beautiful decor and environment. But the food is very limited not a lot of variety and they are overpriced for the portion of the food they deliver. Also costumer service was very slow and took them ages to get our order ready and they forgot to bring my friend her drink even though they took so long. Overall a great experience for a girl's night out and taking beautiful photos but I wouldn't go back for the food.
T. B.
Delicious food and drinks, and the staff were incredible - special mention to Amelia who exceeds all expectations for customer service!
D. K.
Fantastic service, scrumptious food, and AMAZING drinks. Loved spending my friends birthday here! 10/10 recommend for anyone who's in Melbourne. I'll be thinking about this food for the next week.
m. b.
Amazing place for a girls night!! Awesome food, delicious cocktails and flawless service from all the staff not to mention such BEAUTIFUL interior. Loved this restaurant we will be back for sure!!!
V. W.
Great food and great service.
Drinks are to die for. (Go the pink lemonade cocktail)
Favourite part is all the photo opportunities.
Great ladies day, a must if in Melbourne CBD.
S. D.
Taro was an amazing host to us at Pink. He made sure we had a wonderful experience and his cocktail recommendations were spot on. We loved pink and will definitely be back #pinkvibesonly
P.
I came here for drinks with my girl friends. The place was really pretty and very pink. You can literally go there and do a photoshoot. I enjoyed their cocktails. They were all sweet and fruity. I recommend to book before going.
R. R.
The pizza and cocktails were exceptionally delicious. We had a large party and Pink The Restaurant catered to us with ease. Very friendly customer service and always checked on us to see how we were going with our meals. The gorgeous pink vibe was the cherry on top for me. Definitely will be going back again. Thank you for making my birthday a memorable one.
H. C.
Hard to understand how anyone can complain about any cocktails in Melb that cost $16-$18.
You absolutely get what you pay for. A cocktail. It's not lavish, but its sweet, and cute. Exactly why people should come here.
Is this joint a fine dining establishment? Hell no. But thats not the point of this joint.
I love the place, and so do my girlfriends. Maybe some of the reviewers here need to use their common cents before leaving average or downright nasty reviews that could potentially kill a cute, unique and kinda sexy little party venue.
K. T.
We went to pink for the first time on a Friday and were so impressed with the atmosphere and food. The staff were beyond lovely and incredibly professional, the new managers were so personable, definitely recommend!
E. Z.
Went here with a couple of friends for my birthday, can't give a full 5 stars but my experience was pretty good. The waitress was lovely and knew what she was doing, the decor inside is quite cute and very pink which I loved, the opportunities for photos were slightly awkward though. The flower wall has tables with people sitting right in front of it so it was awkward for us to get photos which was a pity, but the upstairs photo area is great.
Loved the bartender who was really vibing and dancing over at the bar while making drinks, you can tell he has a passion. I enjoyed my food but it was pretty average for such prices, especially bearing in mind that the food comes from the downstairs restaurant.
Overall I did enjoy my stay but you can really tell that the restaurant only wins because of the pink decor and it getting posted heaps on social media. Would be nice if the menu had something special to it to make up for the prices. Solid 4 stars to Pink definitely though!
최.
If u like pink and rose this place is perfect!
J. B.
Amazing experience! The food, the staff, the #pinkvibesonly. What’s not to love!
P. P.
Great experience... despite our late arrival still very happy to have us! Lovely staff very accommodating! Amazing food and delicious cocktails!
E. N.
My favourite colour reincarnated as a restaurant! #pinkvibesonly great food, awesome cocktails. So pretty! Thanks to Taro for your sick service!
J. H.
Friendly service , great cocktails, and great food.
Plenty of vegan options too!!
My partner, my mum and I will be back soon for bottomless brunch!
Thank you guys for a lovely evening !
E. G.
Pink is really overrated and only a place to go for the gram, the food is quite bland and portions too small for the price you pay. They only have max 5 choice of mains on their menu. Disregard the restaurant name and just go for a drink or dessert for the cute pics
J. L.
Food and drinks were good. Venue was nice and clean. Service was less than good however, and they got our orders wrong twice.
M. H.
Simon was so lovely! Served us all night, checked in, taught us how to make fairy floss. Best night 👌🏼 #simonsays
That good looking dude in the pink Ralph Lauren, you are a vibe
T. W.
Great atmosphere. The pink decor is sensational, very Palm Springs! Food was delicious and service was great. Friendly staff and amazing cocktails!
K. H.
My google maps took me to the wrong side of the road, so it took a bit to find. This location is NOT access friendly, you have to go up two flights of stairs for the main area and more stairs for bathroom. However, it is well spaced with a variety of different seats and plenty of room between them.
The staff were very nice, however the owner needs to invest in menu tastings for them. Given the price point for the dishes (high) it seemed most of the staff hadn't taste-tested most of the dishes. This made it hard for them to give proper recommendations. The "sweat" potatoes were very nice.
The bartender was legit, though. He's clearly passionate about his craft.
E. T.
Most amazing food and waitstaff!
Everyone was super lovely and accomodating, and the food was to die for!! (Get the chicken tacos😉)
20/10 from me! Can’t wait to return😻
Oh and did I mention.. everything is PINK!💗💗💗
E. B.
Interesting all day cocktails pizza restaurant. Looking forward some afternoon tea happening here .
H. C.
My staff wanted a place to go to for our Xmas function. We decided on Pink and we have just walked out all agreeing that we just had the best experience . The cocktails were a hit and the food was amazing.
We are already taking about our next staff function here.
Thank you legend
O. W.
Came here with a large group and had such a fun time! Tasty food, attentive service, beautiful venue. Seafood Bao buns, tacos and sliders were amazing!
J. O.
Wow! What A great magical time we had at the PINK restaurant... my sons bought me here for Mother’s Day Eve and I had a ball... Simon and Sophie and Malyna were such happy and bright staff ... I’m tickled PINK! 💕
J. S.
The Restaurant was very pink, my friends and I absolutely loved it!!! We were not impressed with the food and drinks. Both overpriced and the quality wasn’t worth the money.
We were pretty sure the pizza was from the pizza place underneath the pink (which was less than half the price of pinks prices).
There were 16 of us and they did incredibly well with bringing everything out at once. Our server was great too.
Overall disappointed in the quality of the food and the pricing of it all.
Would recommend pink for the cute pictures but sadly not the food.
a. r.
this place is so beautiful, staff of amazing and super lovely! we where served by sophie and she was so sweet and took care of everything we needed! 100% recommend and definitely coming back
J. D.
They were professional at all times and had great work with us!
l. m.
I came here tonight for my birthday dinner with my boyfriend. Jocy was our waitress, she was very attentive, helpful and friendly. She took pictures of us and gave us great food and drink recommendations. She even brought out a candle on our dessert and sang happy birthday!! The atmosphere was so beautiful and great for a special occasion or celebration. Would definitely recommend Pink and Jocy.
K. W.
ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!!!!
Love the service, kind warm hearted staff that really love serving people and honestly the food is seriously delicious 😋 I would HIGHLY recommend! Pink all the way 💗
L. H.
Large assortment of cute drinks, quirky and cute food where most things are dyed pink. Lovely atmosphere and kind staff. Would 100% recommend this place
R. G.
Good food - looked amazing and tasted even better. Beautiful ambiance and friendly staff.
The chef - Saahil took Personal care of us as 1 of us had a nut allergy.
M. G.
Amazing service and food. Loved it all round ! Staff are so interactive and fun to be around! Such a good vibe xxx recommend for a good girls night
C. W.
It's pink, very pink. It's the right amount of pink to be amazing, you may think it is completely overwhelming, but you will love it.
The cocktails are awesome and the staff are nice too. The seasoning on the polenta chips is delicious. Definitely recommend for a fun night out
L. T.
Amazing vibe and the general manager is seriously so awesome! Such great customer experience. The food and drinks are so bomb, would definitely recommend!
A. R.
Pink was great! Really pretty, nice service and pretty good food too! The cocktails are awesome and it’s certainly memorable! 💕💕
G. D.
This place was bloody fantastic..the vibe the food..the staff..thanks Sofie.xx...so chill and relaxing..staff were eager to please..we loved it so much we are going back for another birthday..thanx again for helping make it so special..ps the photo booths were to die for..plenty of pics were taken..let me tell you..loved it and can't wait to come back..
S. O.
My friend and our teenage daughters went for an early bite. The food was wonderful (and i know, im a chef). The ambiance was the real draw, very unique, very whimsical. Highly recommend. Very well priced and a fair selection on menu.
M. M. U.
Nice decoration inside, good for photos, but not much of variety food on menus, price is higher than the taste of food. I had fried calamari, side salad was very basic. I am unsure if I go back there, because I had better fried calamari with lower cost in other nearby places.
S.
After seeing Pink all over Instagram, my friend and I decided to finally check it out.
We tried the mocktails which were delicious, and beautifully presented. The flavours of our food were great, but unfortunately when our pasta and chips arrived, it was almost cold. The pasta was also quite chewy and tasted a bit undercooked.
The restaurant itself was gorgeous and very Instagram-able, but we very disappointed in the food given the price we had paid. A bit underwhelming.
S. K.
The absolutely gorgeous Hunter gave us the best service. Such a sweetheart, she really made my birthday special. Also shout out to the first girl serving, I'm sorry I didn't get your name, you both are beautiful I'm so grateful for the 5 star service. Also to the chefs, that pasta was game over! Spectacular presentation! Thank you all xxx
C. E.
We had a great dinner at PINK ! Food was amazing and a great atmosphere. The staff were very engaging. We will be back
C. M.
so good! Went in with no expectations but was blown away with the food and drinks. We had the pink lady cocktail $14 and the ciao Bella pasta $20. Was in heaven and the pink decor is so pretty! Felt like we were on a cloud.
K. C.
It's very pink. It has really nice decorations. There is a full flower wall, good place to take pictures. There is more places up stairs to take pictures as well, along with a swing.
D. H.
This is a very clean and friendly place to shop. I always enjoy coming here.
J. T.
We loved it! We didn’t have a booking and when we stumbled across it, it was like we stepped into the roaring 20’s and were immersed in Pink! Thanks to the host for finding us a table and being so lovely to our daughter who needed assistance. Truly a great concept and incredible food. My wife and I will be back!
S. K.
The effort is nice but it didnt meet my expectations. The pictures on instagram and descriptions make it seem like theres a huge area upstairs to take photos but there really isnt. Its good for a one time visit to check out. I had the pizza, pasta and one of the salads - the food is average.
Some of the employees didnt really seem enthusiastic except for one girl (sorry didnt get the name, she had blonde hair and maybe was the manager), she provided great service and is really bubbly.
I. D.
We dined here Thursday 23 January 2020. 5 female friends gathered after the tennis. After reading mixed reviews we were all thoroughly impressed and very happy with the service and the food. Thank you to the staff. Food was lovely, healthy and of adequate sufficiency. Thank you.
B. “. D. U. K.
Too much food colouring in everything. I threw up pink the next day
M. C.
Venue is beautiful, really good for a girls night out. The owner was there and very accommodating to make sure everything was great. The food is good but maybe not outstanding for Melbourne standards. Definitely worth a visit though! You have to try there ferry floss drinks super yum mocktail for this pregnant lady 🤗
E. Z.
The atmosphere was cute. The cocktails and the food tasted really nice. However, the price was very expensive. Our lunch ended up being $90 for two mains and two cocktails. I wouldn't come again due to how expensive it is.
L. C.
Place looks amazing. If you love pink like I do, it's a paradise for the eyes. Pizza was delicious, although I was expecting it to be a lot pinker -kinda like these beetroot burger buns, those just had a vaguely pale pink dough- and the rosé I had was excellent. Cocktail list seemed awesome too. All of the classic with a sweet and pink twist.
However, the service was shocking, although the girl that served us was very sweet when she sat us and recommended some cocktails, we had to ask for the food menu and no one came back to take our order for about 20mins. I actually had to wave for 5mins at the 4waitresses which were all standing behind the bar, busy chatting with eachother. Fair enough the place was pretty quiet but still..being a waitress myself I hate to do Th is kind of stuff and I'm pretty patient but I had to. Also a bit disappointed about the milkshake, which sounded amazing but we couldn't order as they were not serving it... felt like Maccas telling you the soft serve machine is closed. It's a shame since the milkshakes seem to be quite a big component of their menu.
Lastly, thought their beer list was very short and boring, (only 3 of them, Peroni and such). I would have added a choice of pink beers, it's not hard to find as there's so many of them on the market. And who doesn't love a good beer with their pizza.
In conclusion, I love the concept and will definitely be back to try the cocktails and (hopefully!) the shakes, but I'm hoping the service improves, and if I were them, I'd drop the prices a little.
K. G.
I must say I like the concept of Pink. It was fun to have drinks and dine. I was expecting more after reading about this place in Broadsheet. The food was ok, my friend’s Hippy ravioli was lukewarm, my other friend’s review of her salad was she wouldn’t rate it, my other 2 friends that I shared pizzas - Chicken with Jalapeños pizza and the Mushroom pizza - was probably the highlight. The only thing working for it was they both had crunchy bases. The cocktails were weak. I just thought the price would reflect the amount of alcohol is in the drink. It seemed watered down. I honestly think it’s a great place to check out. They need to up their game on the food and drinks for me to come back every now and then.
S. W.
Worth stopping by. Loved everything we ate! Tried the feed me menu and cocktails were so yummy. Very cute
S. N.
I love pink so when I found out that there was a pink themed restaurant in Melbourne, I knew I needed to go! We didn’t make a booking but we were able to have a table and hunter was lovely. Her service was amazing! I hope I see her again when I come back.
J. M.
OMG OMG OMFG! Are you kidding me! Best place ever and the food. Wow! Get in my belly! Met a pink flamingo too!
C. R.
Such an awesome experience, the food was fantastic and service was even better! Also the BEST mocktails and cocktails in town!! 🙌🙌
I. m. P.
The service was fantastic the stuff were very attentive and the place is indeed instagramable. Even though the food was on a lower price but the quality it’s not very good. The tomatoes in the salad was way over ripe toward spoiling and the pasta smell was a-bit off too (was sour). Also notice that some table were not very happy with meal. Still the service was great!
N. J.
The staff we're so friendly and helpful, and the food and cocktails were amazing!! Definitely recommend coming here!

Recently, I went to this restaurant to attend my friend's birthday party. When I arrived, the reservations had gotten mixed up, despite my friend sending an email telling them about the new reservation, since she had accidentally first booked on a Monday evening when they weren't open. After a few minutes however, the manager, oddly in all black, was able to give us a table. He was very quick, polite and helpful, and he served people with a smile. It was a good start to the restaurant. We took a long time to order due to complications around the table, but the staff there were very patient and tended to our needs quickly.
My friends and I ordered our food, but the issue with it was the fact that they were incredibly overpriced for a fairly small portion. Sure, the pizzas are a lot for one person to consume so it would be perfect for sharing between two or three, but even then the quality of them weren't that impressive for their price tag. Yes, the pizza dough on the pizzas was pink, and there were cherry tomatoes rather than diced normal ones, but I would rather get a much larger pizza from a cheaper fast food place than the $21.90 spent here on the Princess, aka the Margherita option.
A qualm I had as I was waiting for my food was noticing that workers from the separate eatery on the ground floor below were bringing up dishes to the counter, which the waitresses would then take and serve to the patrons. Sometimes they would use the lift behind the bar to get the food. While there was only enough space for a bar in the Pink restaurant, it's a bit disappointing that it has to source from the restaurant downstairs. I feel it would be honest if they stated that they were sourcing from there. If some of the money from the overpriced food was for taking pictures in the photo op area, it should say so.
The main attraction of the restaurant was that it was "Australia's most instagrammable restaurant". Upstairs was a few "photo op" areas, which were very cute and perfect for a girls' night out. They promoted love and positivity, and it was a nice touch that the mirrors in the bathroom had writing on them which spread self-love and such. My friends and I had a lot of fun taking photos, and I hope that the restaurant switches up the items for the photo ops, so that not everybody on Instagram has the same pictures. A big disappointment was the fact that the flower wall on the main eating floor had fake flowers rather than real ones, while I can imagine it being cost-efficient to have fake ones, I imagine people expected a bit more from the flower wall.
A minor but nice little end to the evening - a worker was getting fairy floss from their fairy floss machine, and he let the birthday girl make it herself. He was instructing her and it was a good end to the evening. It would be even better if the machine wasn't situated where it was, in the corner behind a table meant for a group of people where it was inconvenient to access.
Should you go? Probably yes for a party, but be prepared to take a lot of money with you! It's also a good idea to wear some pink as well before taking photos! The restaurant has promise in bettering itself, but for now, it's an average restaurant with a gimmick.

Love this place! Totally recommend going on a thurs for the cheeky tequila and taco deal 🤭 customer service was also beyond comparable. 100% would dine here again.

An amazing night at Pink. Service ✔️ food ✔️ I had the Rainbow Superfood salad - omg so yum! My husband has the LOL (Linguine of Love). He said it was one of the best pasta dishes he’s ever had. Giovanni looked after our group of 14 so well. Sorry I didn’t take photos. Would happily return.

Known as the most instagramable cafe? We can deffs confirm!
Ambiance 5+: this cafe is super pink! Which we absolutely adore. Unlike any other dinning place in Melbourne, the pink furniture, walls and even meals offer such a fun experience. The picture walls are super pretty, with signs on the floor of where to stand for the best lighting. There is a gorgeous flower wall, pink dresser, chair and flamingo and fun signs to take photos at.
Food 5: The food here is super delicious and creatively presented. For drinks we ordered a pink mocktail and mojito which were sweet and had pretty fairy floss. The white chocolate passion fruit was our favourite, so so so delicious! For mains we order the superfood salad. This dish has iconic blue sober noodles, and the accompanying vegetables offer a healthy and refreshing meal. The pizzas are all vegan based! We got the antipasto pizza, which was organically coloured with beetroot to make it pink. The pizza was so yum! The bread was thick and I could seriously not tell the cheese was vegan. The ravioli was cooked beautifully, the mushroom just melted in your mouth with every bite. The side of Polenta jenga fries seriously wont disappoint! They were well salted, crispy and just simply incredibly cooked. For dessert we managed to save a bit of room for the pink chocolate fondue, which had fresh strawberries, Oreos and other goodies. A perfect dish to end a perfect meal.
Service 5: the staff here are incredibly friendly, professional and polite. They offer helpful recommendations and ensure that customers are all looked after. They clean the tables between meals and present themselves in Pink!
Fun fact: the gluten free pizza is cauliflower based, and recommended as being even more tastier!
P. N.
The place is definitely....pink, it has an instagram feel but besides that, everything else is quite....dull.
The food is mediocre at best and the price is expensive. The pizza isn't like the tasty ones you get downstairs, it's a little more fancy for no reason and has limited options. There isn't a variety of food to choose from (mostly healthy stuff) but even then...the food is nothing special. There is a wall of flowers you can take pictures though....
