Harry Limes Restaurant 5A Doveton Street North, Ballarat Central, Victoria 3350

"Another great restaurant in Ballarat. Fabulous bruschetta e salmon!"

"The decor was elegant, sophisticated, and warm. Atmosphere was pleasant. Lovely music. Service was impeccable. Friendly and efficient. Food was divine. The scallops were delicate with layers of flavour that explode in your mouth. The calamari coating was perfect in flavour and texture. Sauce delicious. Salad with perfect dressing and croutons that were light and crunchy and full of flavour rather than tasteless rocks. The crumbed camembert was of excellent quality but partnered perfectly with the decadent sauce. The level of presentation was right up there especially with the pork belly dish. My son not usually impressed with vegetables had to finish every last mouth full. The sauce with the pork belly was perfection apparently. Sticky date is often dry with the caramel sauce compensating. But the cake/pudding was moist and full of flavour. Ice cream and cream were of high quality also. With a restaurant like this portions are usually of a very small size. We were both pleasantly surprised with the generous servings. Told my son he needs to experience these high end classy restaurants occasionally. Thank you for proving me right. Not a cheap restaurant but you get what you pay for sometimes. Been a long time since I had such a quality experience. You can usually fault a restaurant with something. Such as service, food, decor, or atmosphere. But I could not find one fault. Probably not a restaurant to take smaller children to, but definitely an older child to broaden their horizon. Thank you for this experience I shared with my son."

"Decided to go out for lunch to Harry Limes, it was a nice calm and quiet atmosphere, with lovely service. The food wasn't too bad, though not too many options. I enjoyed my time and the food though not done the way I am used to still wasn't too bad. Though was disappointed with the lack of kids menu."

"Great experience! We were strolling Ballarat town centre while showing my cousin from overseas around when we found Harry Limes. Not a lot of restaurants were open on that day, we were glad this one was. The owner looked after us very well! The restaurant was clean and cosy, the food was great and the serving was generous. Going to the bathrooms, you have to pass through their kitchen, it was very clean and fresh smelling. I believe we found one of the gems in Ballarat. Highly recommended."

"We 4 people had a very good experience here. The first thing is that the layout here is luxurious but the price is affordable. I really like braised beef and pho, very delicious. Very good service. We will come back here if we have a chance to visit Ballarat next vacation."
