Zagar's Charcoal Grill - Monash

Well what a total surpriseA little place in an old first floor auditors office, the entry way and external A-frame signage scream "modest bistro".

Let's get all the negative stuff out of the way! You pay for the bread here, a bowl of chips (for 2) was $15 and corkage is $17 wine only. We went instead for their wine list and ordered a 2011 Wynns Black label for $52. We were presented with a 2014 I asked for what was on the wine list which they finally came back with a 2012 there was no 2011 available!We ordered a meat platter for 2 for entree and a scotch fillet and eye fillet for mains and the steak is as good as I have ever tasted.

It cost us $186 for two people so it's not cheap and the bowl of chips pricing was a disgrace.The steak here overcomes the cost just bring your best red (pay corkage) and skip the chips.
