About Beluga Fish & Chippery South Yarra

Toorak Road gets its fish-and-chip fix from Beluga, turning out golden, fluffy-centered chips dusted with chicken salt alongside fresh catches. The counter does the suburban ritual right—frying clean, crisp flake and searing King George Whiting straight to order. Regulars lean on the lighter side with grilled fillets over brown rice and Greek or tabbouleh salad, while the flat-top turns out stacked Aussie burgers with the lot. Take a pavement table out front to watch the street drift by with a hot potato cake in hand.

  • Crisp, fluffy chips: Cut thick, fried golden, and salted with classic chicken salt.
  • Grilled fish and fresh salads: King George Whiting and salmon seared to order, served with brown rice and fresh Greek or tabbouleh salads.
  • Aussie-style burgers: Classic flat-top beef patties stacked with all the traditional fixings alongside fried potato cakes.

  • Classic Aussie-Style Burgers with the Lot

    Flat-top grill options satisfy nostalgic comfort cravings with made-to-order hamburgers with the lot and tender steak sandwiches.

    My favourite comfort burger in Melbourne. I’ve been going here for years so that’s probably why. Consistently awesome burger.
