Nivana

Queenscliff's beloved Asian fusion favourite, famous for its banh mi and rich laksa.

Vibrant, mural-lined dining room with an Asian-culture theme. warm and convivial but genuinely tight on space, so it turns buzzy and loud when full, especially with large group bookings.

A colourful hand-painted mural, a cocktail, wine, beer and sake list, homemade sodas, and a kitchen well-practised at catering large group bookings and allergy requirements.

Well-travelled diners rate the beef rendang against Southeast Asia itself, though a couple of reviews note the pad thai reads as a milder, more western-leaning version.

Generally seen as great value with generous portions, though a few reviewers flag smaller dishes like the pork bao as pricey for the size.
