Great food with lots of Asian flavor. If you love chili it's the place for you. Drinks menu and wine list is huge. Could have done with more wait staff.
Always amazingly good food. Service is quick and drinks are tasty. I would recommend the D-day sprits. We always take our friends visiting Melbourne to Cookie because its always reliable.
It was lovely and the waitress was very helpful. It took them some minutes to give us our table but we waited in the bar area and it was alright, wasn't that long.
This is the place that is iconicly and the epitome of all things Melbourne. It's hip, it's eclectic, it's funky, with cool professional staff and a great mix of food from different cuisines, and a fantastic selection of drinks from local or international sources. The food is excellent, amongst a sea of patrons and vibe that cannot be matched anywhere else. This is the place u wanna go to impress friends visiting from overseas and want to experience Melbourne cuisine, or a date to show how cool u are. Rooftop bar is always the best around, whether u go beforehand or after dinner. There's no wonder why any cool young Melbournian would know Cookie. Oh, and I only rated the noise to be 3/5 because it's a happening atmosphere!
The atmosphere is fantastic. Great wines. Great service. Food was delicious. I went with a colleague. We had drinks near the bar then sat down for dinner. I think the experience of the interesting food and great wine gave us loads more to talk about and the lighting and decor made it comfy and fun.
EXCELLENT FOOD , SERVICE & AMBIENCE, the staff at Cookie are very attentive & informative , with a pleasant attitude not always present in Restaurant staff.
Great food as always. Efficient service and offered water as soon as we sat down. Great for lunch we were in and out in a timely manner.
Food always fresh and taste great there is some chilli in some dishes but so good , it's my go to place .. every time I have a visitor or friend come to Melbourne.. this is no 1 stop
A favourite Melbourne restaurant; we treat ourselves every time we are in town!
The lamb panange was really good and I liked the fried rice as well. It had great service. Come to cookie it is amazingly great.
The food was delicious, service fantastic and expresso martinis perfect. I would have no hesitation recommending Cookie. Always good to go with a few friends or family and share a few dishes between you. The pork and lamb should were brilliant.
The food was lovely and we had an amazing time. It is an awesome place with great staff and cool interior design. Will be going back.
The food and atmosphere of Cookie was fantastic. What really made it enjoyable was the staff, the knowledge of the menu made choosing and matching the flavours and textures easy.
I really enjoyed the food and drink in Cookie. Nice place for friends to catch up. Highly recommend to order the "paw paw salad". Very authentic Thai food.
We have been to Cookie several times - the first time the real deal breaker was the extensive wine list - it was amazing! Then we ordered the food - it was delicious and well presented. The staff were friendly and helpful and really knew their menu and wine list. It has become a favourite place for our family to meet up for lunch on a weekend as we are spread over Melbourne and it is central for us all.
Really great food, everything is diary free! The cocktails were not as acurate as their descriptions. Fantastic service and knowledge of menus, food and drinks.
We had a really good time, as usual. Staff are always friendly, the food and ambience are also consistently good. One thing of the first places we think of for something a bit more special.
Funky and lively atmosphere with delicious food and drink, and very helpful staff. Went on a Friday night for my husbands birthday and was impressed by the service of our waitress, and the promptness of our food coming out and most importantly the unique taste of each dish was superb. We had the scallops, drunken prawns, prawn firecrackers, and chicken rendang - will definitely try these again (especially the drunken prawns). The cocktails we had were choc zombie (pretty strong) and monkey paw, and highly recommend the monkey paw yum! Looking forward to heading back for more.
Loved it. Great food. Love the huge wine list. The service was great and even the courtesy call to confirm my booking was a delightful surprise.
I have been to Cookie on a number of occasions and this was by far the best experience. The food and the service were both excellent . I would highly recommend Cookie to anyone looking for a city restaurant that takes bookings and serves great food from an extensive menu.
Cookie is my go-to restaurant in the city for any occasion - I always know the food will be amazing and anyone I bring along sings their praises. The spritzers are a great way to kick off dinner and the wine list is extensive. Enjoy!
Great atmosphere with an awesome hostess who took time to help me choose a beautiful wine to accompany my meal Excellent food and customer service First time here for me but will be back again soon!!
Always always always amazing food. Beautiful beer & wine selections. Never disappoints xx
Fantastic food, great service. Thank you so much to Cookie for a wonderful lunch, even making room for extra last minute guests. Highly recommended for all.
Excellent food and great (attentive but not too attentive) service! Strongly recommend the betel leaf cocktail for its fresh and robust Thai flavours. Perfect for our celebratory dinner.
Food was tasty, a little pricy. Very noisy bustling place. Toilets were an absolute disgrace. Worse than public toilets. It took the whole experience down a few notches.
Busy and noisy but food and service was fabulous. We had a great time. Waitress was also subtle at hurrying us along so the next patrons could get the table.
Quality food, great service and an awesome vibe. First time we have been back to Cookie for a couple of years and we definitely will not be leaving it that long to be back again.
Desert was great! But rice in main meal was not fresh and they sat us in a dark corner. Would consider trying again. ☺
Excellent, we have been a group of 10 people. And we really enjoyed the food and environment they have set in there. I definitely will go back again
We really enjoyed the food, there was quite a lot, however the service wasn't the best as we had to constantly remind the waitress that we were waiting for drinks etc.
We especially enjoyed the fun and lively atmosphere. The wait staff were friendly and helpful. The food was fantastic. Very tasty. Looking forward to going back.
Made a reservation because I knew the restaurant was going to be busy. However, when my friends and I got there we were still required to wait. Food was great/consistent and the service staff that helped us that night was friendly and professional. Overall, the food did compensate for the wait so I would still recommend everyone give it a try.
Great food huge menu to chose from Ths Staff are all so friendly and helpful . Always happy to return there . The wine and beer list is well covered ..
Loved the food, the vibe and excellent service. We had the banquet with food suggestions from the staff which were spot on. A great night out and a wonderful place to meet friends. Thanks Cookie!
Food is always delicious. However, service is substandard. Would recommend taking a later dinner booking to avoid disappointment with wait times on both food and drinks.
Food and cocktails were nice but quite pricey. Our waitress was very helpful with the menu and how much to order. Not as amazing as it usually has been before.
The food and service was good. Loads of choices for food and drinks. We didn't have to wait long for the food at all and even though the restaurant was packed, we were not rushed. A little noisy for conversation so lip reading would be a real advantage!
Fantastic food! Great to taste different small amounts from the small dishes menu. The flavours are amazing. Prawn firecrackers, Taro dumplings with chilli sauce and Betel Leaf Cocktail are amazing. Great staff and fab cocktails. (lychee martinis) Loved it!
Third time atCookie's while visiting Melbourne. The food is consistently excellent, very rein ably priced and the service is spot on. A great place to enjoy Thai influenced food.
Quite a venue for a bustling Thursday night. We ordered the beef ribs, pad Thai, green curry and barramundi fillet to share between three people. Plenty of food and quite enjoyable.
Cookie is normally immaculate. But unfortunately we were sat in a corner out of view and forgotten about. Almost an hour from being seated to getting drinks. The food was great as always. Perhaps need to work on service in busy times. It wouldn't have mattered so much, except I had my parents visiting and really wanted to show them a Melbourne classic. Lesson learned? Maybe avoid Friday/Saturday night or perhaps always get a bottle of wine at the bar first before being seated. Still highly recommended, I'll be back...but when it's quiet.
Great atmosphere, easy to book online. Great service. Waitress made sure we were okay for drinks and the food was delicious. It came out within 30 mins.
Great service. Awesome food and wine! Coming back again soon
The food is fabulous and plentiful, and the service is professional. We loved it. This was our third visit and we will be back again. My tip is to ask for a table against the windows or away from the stairs.
My favorite restaurant. I got a table near the entrance this time so it made it very difficult to talk as it was very loud in this spot.
I had been recommended Cookie from a few friends and it did not disappoint! Service was excellent and the food was amazing - we had 2 small plates and 1 main between 2 of us and it was more than enough. Would definitely go again!!
We have four main meals to share between 4 of us. Two were delicious and two were below average. One of them over cooked and dry and the other not enjoyed, quite tasteless and not what was expected.
beer, wine selection were vast and varied; same for the menu, lots of interesting choices. the food was great and so was the service. well done!
Great food. The service staff were lovely even if they didn't get the order right. We loved the wine but they only had one bottle despit the 80+ page wine list
