Cookie Restaurant

Don’t like plastic plates, service was poor, didn’t even replace the plastic plates for the second course we would have appreciated advice on our order

Great food and drinks. Awesome vibe and very friendly and helpful staff make the experience of hanging out in this hip joint a pleasure to be at.

Great atmosphere and staff however the food was a bit of a let down. It is possible that we were on the wrong end of the night as our booking was quite late.

Excellent dishes and fun staff who were attentive to all at our table. Enjoyed the extensive wine list and wonderful array of dishes. Definitely a spot to return to very soon.

Great food with enough choice to satisfy anyone and everyone, and a mostly excellent drinks list but the service was patchy (if very well meaning).

This is a Melbourne institution. Love the food, atmosphere and service! Great to get a balcony if you can on a summers day. The hidden cocktail bar is also worth a visit.

Very extensive Menu split into 3 categories small, medium and large plates. All Asian fusion and extremely delicious. We pick 4 plates and share with a bottle of wine. It’s a real treat eating beautifully tasty fresh food with an Asian spin on it. Always satisfied Always happy when we leave . The service is casual, professional . They don’t hover over your table , which we prefer.

Always great. Service impeccable, food delicious. No matter what the Occassion Cookie always delivers. I love the space- opens up behind a door up 2 dark flights of stairs- a great place to take visitors to Melbourne.

Good experience in the evening, good food and service here.

One of the best meals I’ve had! I loved everything about this place - the decor, the friendly waitstaff, the cocktails, and every single dish was amazing.

Service was slow but was good when we had it. No one attending to the tables or filling up empty cups of water. Staffing was low I suppose. Food was average. Nothing to rave about.

Really nice restaurant with high quality food and ambience! Service is great too. I really enjoyed my dining experience and would totally recommend it to my friends !

Great! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Didn’t have 2 of the beers and one of the dishes we wanted to order. All else was great especially the heat in the chillies

Wonderful experience! Food was amazing and servers were fantastic too. Make sure to save room for dessert, the tapioca was delicious. We’ll definitely be back!

Meal was great but there was a bit of assumed tipping going on at the end there and we paid more in tip than we expected.

This is a high quality restaurant backed up with excellent service. An extensive menu and drinks list means that we have been there several times.

Good food and a great bar/atmosphere. Not easy to find but worth it when you do. Certainly a hidden gem frequented by lots of regulars.

Tasty food, however the menu was a bit too long. Bizarre quirky Decor made this place stand out. Great vibes and excellent service. Would definitely return.

I have always found the food fantastic, the drinks made to perfection and the staff excellent. I've taken many a guest there, that have raved about it for many months.

Food was delicious and service exemplary. Great atmosphere too. I brought a friend here from Sydney who was very impressed and was wishing for something similar back home.

We were placed in a quiet corner as requested, which was very appreciated as one of us is hearing impaired. Staff were very helpful & polite without being pushy. Food was fresh & delicious.

Good food, accomodating staff . We were a party of 4 put on a rather small table, but staff were happy to move us, when asked.

Awesome food, awesome service, reasonable prices. One of my favourite restaurants. The drinks menu is so huge you may take 10min just to choose your drink. Try the Pork Belly, delicious.

Sarah our waitress was amazing, took very good care of us and added to our experience! We will definitely be back. Most beautiful food ever!!

My booking was for 8pm. They specify you can only have table for 2 hours so I made another booking to have dessert at a different location for 10.30pm. We were a group of 6 so decided on a banquet. The first sight of any food was @9.15pm when several starters were brought out. I was a little concerned at this point so I advised staff several times about our departure time and was ensured all would be ok. Unbelievably It was 10.10 pm before they brought out 6 main dishes. It was not enjoyable trying to shove down food as quickly as possible so as to attempt to make our dessert booking. All in all, what food I ate was nice, but the service was unbelievably bad, and the place is ridiculously noisy. There are many good alternatives to this restaurant, and would choose any of them ahead of returning here!

Cookie always exceeds expectation. Beautiful buzz in the room, staff are knowledgeable and friendly. Perfectly located and suitable for lunch, dinner or simply for drinks.

Had a great time, lovely food enjoyed celebrating with family while here in Melbourne and will definitely come back next time we are in town.

Great atmosphere, friendly staff and delicious food! Great drinks selection too. Definitely recommend, bu portions are maybe slightly too big if sharing between less than 4.

Excellent food, wait staff were super attentive. They created a "feed me" menu for our table and everything was delicious and perfect amount to share between 6 persons. Cocktails were also delicious. Highly recommended.

Excellent food and atmosphere as always. Just one small criticism the wine by the glass is miserable serve ad hoc with no measure mark. Cheers

Delicious, quick, friendly, great vibe ! Thank you for a great night in Melbourne. We will be back for sure. Next time on the balcony that looked like a cool place to sit.

Food was great, staff were friendly. When ordering drinks from the table they were a bit slow and few people didn't end up getting the drinks that were ordered. I would come back again

Simply amazing! Fanatic service and the food was exceptional. Great night to celebrate an occasion or dinner with friends! Amazing wine list and cocktails served in a modern setting

The food was amazing and the staff's service was absolutely brilliant. However the 2-hour sitting is not long enough, we had barely finished eating before being asked to finish drinks standing at the bar.

Friendly service, fun happy environment with fantastic food in an attractive space above bustling Swanston street in the heart of the CBD. What more could you want.

Good food but very spicy. Sides are overpriced. Wine selection good and reasonably priced. Service good but tends to be slow even when restaurant is not busy

Food is amazing. Authentic, spicy and fresh. We enjoy the seafood platter with Thai red curry sauce and the drunk noodle. Spicy and delicious. We will be back as the menu is so big we want to try everything.

Lovely venue, great atmosphere, wonderful wait staff, delicious food and drinks. Definitely will be back again soon. Centrally located and it is easy to get to.

Favourite spot in town, always top quality food, good service and nice atmosphere. Best to go for early lunch when it is is less busy.

Selection of drinks first rate, plenty to choose from. Great food and fast helpful service. Suitable for celebrations or small groups. Will be back for sure!

The restaurant provided great food. It also had a great ambiance. The service was exceptional and I'm sorry I didn't "catch" our waiters name as he was also very accommodating and obliging with his accurate suggestions. They were spot-on, as was his intuition of what we required. We will certainly be back.

Wonderful as always - great way to share conversation and food. Attentive staff, wonderful flavours and a beautiful day with the windows open and the breeze rustling in.

Everything about our experience from the moment we walked in to the moment we left was just amazing! Highly recommend. Thanks you for having us!

fantastic food, great service. Food is a bit on the pricey side and we ordered everything to come as it was ready, but our "mains" probably took another 45 minutes to come.

Great food and great service, this is my second time and it is definitely a must visit place. From a casual meal to a business lunch

when ordering was provided with good warning about the spiciness of the dishes (did not asked but appreciated the heads up). food was superb and cocktails bonus

Usually a great experience. Tonight was a bit meh due to brusque service. Table cleared too quickly, all dishes came out at once and we waited 20 minutes to get menus. Not the usual quality.

Outstanding food and service. Great cocktail bar as well in a fun atmosphere. We were a group of five and ate like kings. All around solid experience.

The food Is always so flavoursome and makes me want to go back again and again. Service is always good as the staff are all familiar with the dishes which makes it easy. My preference is to let the staff choose for us and I have never been disappointed
