After a long day trip on a Saturday, we arrived back to our accommodation on Macquarie Street tired and just needed somewhere close to eat. We were glad that Astor Grill still had seats when we showed up without booking. This busy restaurant had a warm and welcoming vibe to it, with friendly and attentive staff. <br/ <br/ As we didn’t feel like eating steaks on the night, we went for other proteins on the menu. We had two Entrée dishes, one Main dish and one Dessert to share. <br/ <br/ First Entrée was Grilled Farm Quail with smoky roasted Tomatoes, Ligurian Olives, Mint and Buffalo Fetta. The hero of the dish, the quail, was tender and full of flavour. All the other elements of the dish com...
Took the missus and friends to the Astor Grill for an Anniversary dinner last night<br/ I have been a long time patron of the Astor Grill except for that period where they dropped the ball it appears that the crowds have returned as it was a busy Saturday night, so much so that we were seated in the secondary dining room, apart from that grating on my nerves, the evening was quite enjoyable. We men had the entree of grilled octopus and it was well received, the mains chosen were the <br/ signature dish Steak Astor I would have liked more ! The missus had the Eye fillet scallopini that tasted terrific but also would have liked more,the dinner finished with shared deserts, also very nice. The...
This was a great little find on a recent overnight business trip to Hobart. It was cold and rainy, and I stumbled on the Astor just a short walk from my hotel. The staff were welcoming and friendly, and more than happy to accomodate. The menu was ample, providing a good selection of dishes, but not overcrowded, and there was obviously an emphasis on local ingredients and steak. Same goes for the wine list. I had an appetiser of grilled octopus, and my scotch fillet came out cooked perfectly. Throughout the meal, the staff were attentive, but not in-your-face-all-the-time, and were knowledgeable about the menu and drinks list. The restaurant itself was warm, quiet and cozy, perfect for...
Beautiful food and genuine service. A must-do when you’re in Tassie. The steak tartare was phenomenal, I think any foodie would be ecstatic to receive it. The flavours were superbly balanced, but still delightfully explosive on the palate. I was a bit apprehensive at the prospect of eating raw meat AND raw egg yolk, but the chefs finesse this meal so well that you don’t even think about it whilst eating. I was left wanting more and cannot wait to be back to eat it. The ‘share plate for two; robbins island wagyu rum, marble 7+’ was nice and filling, and bang for your back at $116 as it came with two sides and was perfect for sharing. Definitely a unique take on steak which I was delighted to...

We really enjoyed our meal, although the restaurant was very busy. Our waitress was attentive and the service great. When our meal was delayed, the staff took the time to let us know and explained why. We had divine oysters with salmon gravlax. Definitely up there with 'best ever oysters '. The Cape Grim eye fillet was cooked to perfection and the Stilton sauce delicious. The Blue Eye trevalla was also a high standard dish. A perfect dining experience. Thank you.
Service was good (David was very friendly and helpful) and food was excellent. Only comment is that it may be good for the management to let the staff sample their food so that they can recommend to their patrons. Portions were a good size. We had The Steak, vegetables and pomme frites, finished with a choice of 2 types of cheese and a bottle of red wine. A great dinner that was quite reasonably priced. Recommended to try!
My wife and I visited the Astor Grill last night for about the 3rd time and as usual our expectations were exceeded. The quality of the steak, the friendliness of the staff, and the over all dining experience was spectacular. Worth every cent and highly recommended if you value high-quality local produce and excellent customer service.
So we had a younger server and this guy was all over it the man was the pinnacle of 5 star service The food omg the food the best meal I've had in my life, I would fly to Hobart just to eat here. Every aspect of the experience was 5 star

Simply the best steaks in Hobart. It’s their specialty and they deliver in spades!
