Volpino Pizzeria & Wine Bar

Volpino is the reliable Mount Martha pick for wood-fired pizza, handmade pasta and a coastal Italian dinner that works for couples, families or a small group. Its own site describes the venue as a red-gum-fired, house-made Italian trattoria operating since 2014, which matches its local reputation for relaxed but polished dining. Source: Volpino

Mr Curtis

Mr Curtis is best for drinks, grazing plates and bay-view dining when you want the setting to do some of the work. Go for a long lunch, sunset cocktails or a casual dinner built around share plates rather than a formal three-course meal.

Wok On Bay

Wok On Bay is the dependable local Chinese option, especially useful when you want takeaway, a low-fuss family dinner or familiar Asian dishes close to the village. It is not trying to be destination fine dining; its strength is convenience, generous comfort food and broad appeal.

The Rasoi Tandoori Indian Kitchen

The Rasoi is a strong choice for curry, naan, tandoori dishes and a warming dinner after the beach. It suits takeaway nights as much as dine-in meals, particularly if your group wants vegetarian-friendly options and classic Indian flavours.

Milkbar & Co

Milkbar & Co leans more cafe than restaurant, but it earns a place for brunch, coffee and casual daytime meals. It is a good pick before a beach walk, after school drop-off or when you want something lighter than a full dinner booking.

Local Tips

Mount Martha dining is compact, so the best plan is to think by occasion rather than cuisine alone. For a proper dinner, start with Volpino or Mr Curtis; for takeaway, look at Wok On Bay or The Rasoi; for morning and lunchtime eating, Milkbar & Co is the easier fit.

Book ahead on warm weekends, public holidays and school-holiday periods. The village fills quickly when beach traffic is strong, and the better tables can disappear earlier than you expect.

If you are visiting from Melbourne, time your meal around the water. A late lunch or early dinner lets you add South Beach, the bathing boxes or a short foreshore walk without turning the day into a rush.

Parking can be tight near peak beach times, so give yourself a buffer. For dinner, arriving slightly before the main sitting often makes the whole night smoother.

FAQ

What is the best restaurant in Mount Martha for dinner?

Volpino is the safest all-round dinner recommendation because it has broad appeal, a proper restaurant feel and a menu built around pizza, pasta and shareable Italian dishes. Mr Curtis is the better choice if you care more about drinks, views and a relaxed grazing-style meal.

Where should I eat in Mount Martha with kids?

Volpino works well for families because pizza and pasta are easy crowd-pleasers. Wok On Bay and The Rasoi are also practical family options, especially if takeaway is easier than sitting down.

Is Mount Martha better for restaurants or cafes?

Mount Martha is stronger as a village dining and cafe suburb than as a large restaurant precinct. You can eat well here, but the best experience comes from choosing a handful of dependable locals and pairing the meal with the beach, rather than expecting a long strip of late-night venues.
