Torba Restaurant & Lounge

We were seated right in front of the car park entrance which meant carlights glaring at us constantly throughout the night.

Amazing Russian food! A little pricey but we left the restaurant stuffed and satisfied :)

I've been here a few times for lunch. Food is good & service has always been friendly an efficient. Russian beer is also too easy to drink!

I typically only write reviews when I am very pleased with my experience, but this time I was quite disappointed. We visited this restaurant last night before heading to the theatre. The location is lovely, near the parklands, theatres, convention centre, and parking. The venue itself looks nice and was comfortable. We were told that all entrees would be $10 for the evening, but this included the bread and butter, which was listed on the menu for $6. We shared a trio of dips and bread. The dips were tasty, but the bread was too hard. My main dish was the goulash, which came in a very small portion and the mash was watery. At $28, it seemed quite pricey. My wife had the beef cheeks, which had a larger portion and she enjoyed it. The food was quickly brought to our table after ordering, but the overall experience did not seem very professional.

The Eastern European cuisine at this restaurant was delectable, the service was top-notch, and the violinist was truly remarkable. The location is ideal for those looking to explore Parklands or for attendees of events at the Conference Centre.
