AI Summary

St Kilda Road all-day cafe loved for butter chicken, big brunches and a pet-friendly footpath.

Bright, spacious and relaxed by day with an airy indoor-outdoor layout, shifting to a warmer, classier feel for dinner and cocktails, especially when the owner is on the floor.

Pet-friendly footpath dining right by a tram stop, indoor and outdoor seating, and a kitchen willing to build a gluten-free wrap from scratch on request.

The butter chicken is singled out by name as authentic by at least one reviewer, alongside Aussie brunch staples. the menu reads as an Aussie cafe with a genuine Indian curry line-up rather than a themed gimmick.

Reviewers consistently call it reasonably priced for generous portions, including a $15.90 lunch special of calamari, chips and salad, though a couple of diners found a specific burger overpriced for the quality.
