Almyra Restaurant & Bar Lorne

When my partner and I were visiting Lorne we came to this restaurant every single day for either lunch, dinner or drinks. This would 100% be our local if we lived there. Such a nice atmosphere, stunning view, and the most friendly and welcoming staff. We will be back!!

Came here for a weekend away and decided to give this place a try as it has some solid reviews, and the location on the beach is amazing. Unfortunately, if you take the location out of the equation, there isn't that much that makes this place a must visit in the area. We were lucky enough to get a corner table with the view of the ocean. However, there were multiple blow flies flying around the windows. As for the meals, we ordered the calamari, which was crisp and tender, didn't have a lot of flavour. The spanokota was filled with spinach, and feta was very tasty, but the pastry was too thick, so it didn't get as crispy and crunchy as it should have been. The highlight of the entree was definitely the saganaki, we would certainly order that again if we came back.For the mains, we got the slow cooked lamb shoulder with roast potatoes and a Greek salad. The lamb was actually dry but still had good flavour, but it was a big letdown. The potatoes weren't crispy either. Let's face the 2 main parts of the main course were well under par. The greek salad was very good, filled with lots of olives but certainly needed more feta cheese. Lastly, we ordered the vanilla bean ice cream and baklava. Surprisingly, this dish took the longest time to come out despite nothing that needed to be cooked. Once we questioned the wait staff, it appeared 2 minutes later. The ice cream tasted like it came from the supermarket and not made in-house. I feel any homemade vanilla ice cream would have speckles of vanilla bean running through it. Unfortunately, this place missed the mark on so many elements that I wouldn't recommend or visit this place again.

Shared a lovely dinner with my husband for our anniversary. The view was magical- on the beach. The atmosphere was very pleasant, and the service could not be faulted. Will definitely be back.

Fantastic restaurant and 10/10 location. Great selection of dishes and all very well presented and full of flavour. The location does not get any better being directly on the beach. We cannot wait to come back. A special mention to Maddie: Fantastic waitress; very professional, attentive and friendly. Dealing with multiple tables on her own and holding the restaurant very professionally. Thank you! Highly recommend.

Visited in March 2025 and enjoyed a relaxed lunch featuring the calamari, which was fresh, well presented, and served in a reasonable portion size. The flavours were clean and satisfying — exactly what you'd hope for in a seaside setting. The service was excellent, with staff who were genuinely attentive without being intrusive. The atmosphere is a standout, especially with the restaurant positioned right by the beach, offering a calm, scenic outlook. Great value for the location, making it a solid option for casual dining with a touch of elegance. We've now visited twice, and on both occasions the experience has been consistently enjoyable. Would definitely return.

Came here for lunch. Beautiful views with indoor and outdoor spaces available. We ordered the market fish, seafood saganaki and fries. The food is well seasoned and fresh but the portion size for the mains is rather small for what we paid. Note: 10% surcharge on weekends, 15% on public holidays.

Pizzas took hours to arrive, they forgot about our order. My pizza with prawns only had tiny chopped up pieces wouldn't equal 1 prawn. We spent $160+ dollars there on food and drink. Sweet potato fries were very good.

Great coffee and the bloody Mary’s are great! Good menu selection, we had waffles, garlic bread and chips. Best thing is it’s right on the beach and has a good atmosphere and music. Nick looks after everyone with care and fun!
