University Cafe - Reservar una mesa

We’ve been bringing our business here for a few years now, and have brought numerous friends. We’ve supported them throughout the pandemic and have truly been loyal customers. On our last visit we’ve waited for our food for 1:20mins, and our waiter brought our food to the table next to us.

During our short holiday in Carlton from Perth, we dined at Lygon St four times. University Cafe stood out as the best in terms of food quality, service, and overall atmosphere. Despite being very busy, the service was exceptional. The staff were very helpful when I couldn't decide between two dishes, and the wine pairings were perfect. The prices were also reasonable. They were able to accommodate my wife's gluten-free dietary restrictions with delicious spaghetti. We highly recommend University Cafe.
