Correction (10 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 9 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.
Three places made this list: Little Naples Pizzeria and Dama Rose in Ivanhoe, and Issho Japanese in Ivanhoe East. That is the true count, not a padded one. These are the places where we could read a printed menu price and confirm the venue at a second source.
Every price below was copied from the menu page linked under Sources, so you can read the board yourself. Only a few items are cheap, so this is a snacks-and-sides list more than a full-meal list, and heaps of it suits sharing.

The Dama Rose menu prints Chips at $10. AGFG lists the restaurant as Child Friendly, with Vegan Options, Takeaway and Alfresco Dining. The same menu prints Fattoush V/ VG at $18, so chips are the one item we copied under fifteen dollars. The site carries no date we could read, so check it is current.
On the menu (copied from damarose.com.au/food-menu on 9 October 2026):
- Chips: $10
The move: Treat the chips as a shared side, and check the current menu page before you head over.
Issho Japanese — 248 Lower Heidelberg Road, Ivanhoe East VIC 3079
The Issho dine-in menu prints Avocado Maki at $6 and Wagyu Beef Sushi at $14. Maki is rice and filling rolled in seaweed. Issho’s own site lists Tuesday to Friday 12:00pm to 3:00pm and 5:00pm to 9:30pm, Saturday 5:00pm to 9:30pm, and closed Monday and Sunday. AGFG lists BYO, Takeaway, Child Friendly and Alfresco Dining.
On the menu (copied from issho.com.au/Issho-Dine-in-Menu-2024.pdf on 9 October 2026):
- Avocado Maki: $6
- Wagyu Beef Sushi: $14
The move: Start with the avocado maki, and if you are keen for more, check the menu file against the current board, since it carries an earlier year in its name.
