About Rock Sugar Melbourne

South Yarra gathers at Rock Sugar for punchy modern Thai plates and whimsical cocktails under moody neon lights. The kitchen takes street-food classics and leans into bold, shareable richness—think crisp saltgrass lamb spring rolls dipped in massaman coconut cream, crunchy prawn toast, and fork-tender beef curry alongside fluffy roti. Diners leaning into group celebrations regularly hand over ordering duties to the customisable Feed Me banquets, pairing multi-course progressions with playful pours like the fairy floss martini. Out back, a dedicated private function room adapts to shifting Melbourne weather with a retractable open-air roof.

  • Feed Me banquets: Multi-course banquets streamline group dining with customizable courses tailored to dietary needs.
  • Creative cocktail list: Whimsical pours include the fairy floss martini and refreshing Elderflower Power alongside Thai dishes.
  • Retractable roof room: A dedicated rear function space adapts to Melbourne skies with an open-air retractable roof.

    Tender, melt-in-your-mouth beef that practically surrendered at the touch of a spoon, swimming in a sauce so rich and comforting I’d happily bathe in it.
