Cotta cafe crown - Melbourne

What a joke of a restaurant that purports to specialise in chicken Parma. Salad consisted of a few pieces of lettuce and one slice of tomato. The chicken schnitzel was cold and had obviously been microwaved. The toppings were warm (just) because it had seconds under a salamander grill. The fried onions that were part of the toppings were dry fried? Yuck! I suppose the French fries were okay as they were the only part of the meal that was fresh and properly seasoned. out

We were in the Casino not to gamble but to see a movie. We dined at Cotta before seeing the movie. I ordered the naked chicken schnitzel, it's just a plain schnitzel with lemon, vegetables and chips. We shared delicious garlic bread, husband ordered the...calamari which was on a bed of chips and a very small salad. We both ate only a small amount of the chips, everything was hot, delicious, fresh and served fairly quickly. He chose a beer and I chose the Strawberry cider.

With all the times I have been to Crown it was the first time I went up to the Sports Bar only to find Cotta a busy little restaurant with reasonably priced meals. Steak was one of the best I had eaten cooked to my...liking served with great chips. Schnitzels looked fantastic, will definitely go back next visit. Staff very friendly and attentive. Check it out you won't be disappointed.

We recently travelled round the full east coast of Australia and this is by far the best food we have had by a mile!! We had the Mexican parma and it was so good that we went back the following night. The staff are lovely,...especially the chef's who we had a good chat with at the end! You have regulars for life

The service at Cotta is superb, we both had parma's and they were amazing with plenty of salad and chips on the plate as well, really big servings at a reasonable price.
