•Indulge in a rare Melbourne experience, hosted by a welcoming and attentive staff, with fluent knowledge of all things booze. Winning the Most Innovative Bar & Restaurant in the city of Port Phillip by Lux Magazine, St LuJa is an exciting, eclectic and fabulous restaurant and Bar with quirky, unique and innovative venues located on the beachside end of Fitzroy Street in St Kilda. A little bit gangsta, a little posh and just a touch grungy, with Allison Hartmire (State of Grace) heading up the kitchen. Part smoke fusion restaurant, part function space and part whisky and cocktail bar, combine to offer a fresh and enticing venue for birthday celebrations, wedding after-parties, degustation events, bucks and hens night celebrations, and corporate functions - the list is endless! Looking for a venue to host your next function or event? St Luja offers The Dome, The Downstairs Lounge or if you wish, you can exclusively hire the entire venue. The Dome function space is a semi-private area, where you can enjoy the vibe of the venue while enjoying your own impressive space, and perfectly caters for up to 30 people for parties and celebrations.

The function space has its own bar and caters for up to 40 people and sets the scene for a celebration to enjoy and remember. For larger functions, the entire venue can cater for up to 45 people banquet style or 90 people cocktail style.

Great bar.. stunning sunsets.. lovely staff.. great cocktails and an array of delightful different beers.. chips are always yum 😋
Cocktails are amazing, food was great, and the small finishing touches with the ice cube branding was a great addition. Food was delicious and there were plenty of options. The overall meal and drinks were quite expensive, but not unreasonable given the quality and service. Staff were great and overall it was really enjoyable.
Booked through the fork as they had special 50% off food. Was pleasantly surprised how good the food was... Also it was very well priced even without discount.. service was good. Full bar so drinks were good too. Will definitely return in future..
Had our advance Valentine's Day celebration. The menu was able to cater for our Keto dietary requirements. We ordered the meat platter, zoodles and some mocktails. Service was good, casual, prompt and attentive. The atmosphere was dark but cozy. For me the most memorable part of our experience was the beef in the meat platter. It was so super tender. Must try it!
If you haven't already definitely book your next date night here!! St Luja is St Kilda's undiscovered haven. Ive been here a few times now and each time I'm continuously wowed! If you haven't been to one of their monthly cocktail degustations and you're a Melbourne foodie like most of us are get amongst it. The first Wednesday of each month Head Chef Allison prepares delicious food paired with cocktails from the boys behind the bar for a once in a lifetime experience never to be had again. They are intimate and attentive. Always amazing service. Great selection of options for dietary needs on their normal menu, incredible cocktails, and brilliant for a function space if in need for a party or wedding. Check it out!!
