Mietta's Review
It's a really great little room wood lined, with windows down one side overlooking Grantham Gardens, and low lighting - it engulfs you. But the mood can be dispelled if the sometimes insensitive front of house is playing the music too loud. The menu descriptions are fashionably creative but the food when it comes is not bad at all. The balance of flavours is good and the price is very reasonable. The Greville Bar is pitched at smart Prahran dwellers in their mid thirties but the warm atmosphere welcomes everyone.
Other Published Opinions The Age, Agenda, 18/4/04,Dani Valent,'The crowd is local,partly because anyone with a bar like this in their neighbourhood would support it,but also because the food isn't good enough to prompt a cross-town expedition.Not that it's bad...The one-page wine list is cheerily approachable,with everything available by the glass.A definitional quirk,in which Greville Bar has been issued with a hotel-style liquor license,means smoking is permitted inside.'
