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.

A good dinner for two starts with knowing when the doors are open. This page covers six sit-down restaurants near Kingsville: five in Yarraville and one in West Footscray.

Each was checked against two independent sources. Hours are credited to whoever printed them, and AGFG tags are described as AGFG listing features. We copied no menu prices, so check them with each venue before you book.

AGFG lists Navi’s hours as Wednesday, Thursday and Friday 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM, and Saturday 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM then 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM. It lists Monday, Tuesday and Sunday as closed. AGFG also tags it Vegan Options, and the OpenStreetMap tag matches the evening hours.

Stage: a third date or an anniversary, since the week is short and a booking is the sensible move.

Glovers — 34 Ballarat Street, Yarraville VIC 3013

Glovers is a bar and dining room on Ballarat Street. Its site lists hours of Wednesday to Friday 4pm to late and weekends 12pm to late. AGFG tags it Alfresco Dining, Pet Friendly and Vegan Options.

Exit plan: the hours are open-ended, so you can leave when the conversation runs out.

Eleni’s Kitchen — 28 Anderson Street, Yarraville VIC 3013

Eleni’s own site says the space offers “a gorgeous outdoor terrace with regular plate-smashing and live music on the weekends.” Its site lists lunch and dinner Tuesday to Sunday: lunch 12:00pm to 3:00pm and dinner 5:30pm to 10:00pm. The OpenStreetMap tag gives the same pattern.

Talk-ability: the site lists live music on the weekends, so book a weeknight if you want an easy chat.

Cafe Terroni — 18 Ballarat St, Yarraville VIC 3013

Cafe Terroni’s own site lists dine-in Tuesday to Sunday from 5:00pm. AGFG tags it Child Friendly and Alfresco Dining. It is at 18 Ballarat Street, a short walk from Glovers on the same street.

Say this: “Table for two on a Tuesday evening, please.” It is the day it opens, and it keeps the stakes low.

Bar Romanee — 25 Anderson Street, Yarraville VIC 3013

Bar Romanee’s own site and AGFG both give its address as 25 Anderson Street, Yarraville. It is on the same street as Eleni’s Kitchen, so a plan B is a short walk. This page prints no hours or prices for it, so ring ahead.

Exit plan: if it is full, walk along Anderson Street to Eleni’s Kitchen.

Harley and Rose — 572 Barkly Street, West Footscray VIC 3012

Harley and Rose is the West Footscray pick, at 572 Barkly Street. Its site lists Tuesday to Saturday 5.00pm to late, with Sunday and Monday closed. The OpenStreetMap tag lists Tuesday to Thursday 17:00 to 21:00, Friday 17:00 to 21:30 and Saturday 16:00 to 21:30, so the two sources differ on the closing time. AGFG tags it Child Friendly, Vegan Options, Takeaway and Alfresco Dining.

Exit plan: the AGFG Takeaway tag means the night can finish at home if the table runs out.

We copied no menu prices from these places’ own pages, so this page prints none. Menus, prices and opening hours change, so check with the venue before you go.
