Supernormal

Dined at Supernormal for a birthday lunch and we had banquet 1; the selection of dishes was pretty good! We loved the tuna, it melts in your mouth. The cold noodle salad was tasty and refreshing and I can rave about the lamb shoulder for ages! The meat was tender and so delicious! The marinated clams were underwhelming, but they were fresh so that was a positive. The most underwhelming part was the additional lobster roll we ordered (people had recommended it). If I'm honest, it was very normal, still yummy but didn't stand out. I wouldn't have it again. It was all very filling aka good value for money. To end the meal, the dessert which was a salted caramel parfait was delightful! Overall a lovely experience with exceptional and highly attentive staff. We were thoroughly impressed with the venue and the team. Will have to go back to try other dishes!

Was slightly sceptical of Supernormal but having tried it, I can say it’s worth the hype. Though the space is been around a while it somehow feels timeless. The menu is quite varied and everything I tried from it was very good - especially the veg dumplings and the prawns. Cocktails were also very nice.

Came down for a Melbourne trip and booked a number of venues for the trip. Hands down the best meal of the trip. Clever decor, thoughtful layout ad fit out and surprisingly good acoustics. Cocktails were exceptional and tasty, wine list well priced and paired nicely. Staff helped with wine selection. Food was incredible, tasty, delicate flavours and worked so well together. The lobster roll was 10/10 delicious, expensive but. Worth. Every. Cent. Service was exceptional, nicely attentive without being intrusive, casual but not familiar. Excellent recommendations both with food, the wine and for a drink afterwards. Will be back. $135pp food, cocktail and wine.

At first I found the name of this place a little strange but after experiencing it, it completely makes sense. Everything had a normal feel to it but everything is super nice! Staff, food, atmosphere, comfort - everything! Food came out at the perfect time between each dish(and the place was busy), I ate a lot over lunch but didn't feel exhausted for the rest of the day(huge tick!). 100% worth a visit.

It was a pleasant first experience. Very nice atmosphere and friendly service. Certain items on the menu were different to photos posted. The flavours of the duck and lamb dishes were salty and strong for our taste buds. The price point for the lobster rolls were higher than what we expected it to taste. The mocktails however were quite nice. Undecided on when our next visit will be.

Supernormal is definitely one of the most popular Asian fusion restaurants in Melbourne. The venue is always busy and lively. The dishes were presented quite nicely but the flavours didn’t always hit the mark. I would say the famous lobster roll is definitely worth a try. However, many of the other dishes were too salty and lacked overall balance in flavours. The cost was also quite high for what you get.
