Good Food Good Mood

Out with the old grunge... in with the new refurbished aesthetic ??"️ Gertrude Hotel's rebrand makes you feel like you walked in to an Eastside establishment in South Yarra or Richmond. Clean colour scheme and gorgeous choice of textiles.
As for the food, we ordered the crab linguine and steak frites (not served with salad), so be sure to order that as a side if you want greens. We ordered two steaks; rare and medium rare. The Scotch fillet cut was a generous size (300g) but I was disappointed that both steaks had the same level of rareness. Normally I can't eat rare steaks (it was super chewy) but I was too hungry to send it back, and didn't want to waste food. If you're the same, order your steak 'medium' to enjoy the grain fed tenderness.
If you're going in a big group, be sure to make a reservation. It was pretty busy in the pub area on a Saturday night as the footy was on the TV so we were pretty lucky to get a seat for 3 adults with no booking.
Tiramasu is unreal - order it 🤤
