Mjølner

This place is incredibly true to its concept, and the food is excellent. Drinking out of the horn-shaped cups was such a fun touch, and the fire show during service really added to the atmosphere! The lamb was cooked to perfection, and I highly recommend trying the Riskrem for dessert—it was unique and delicious. It’s a bit of a bummer that the set menu is only for groups of 8+, but even ordering à la carte was a great experience. The staff were super friendly and helpful. We tried to walk in on our first night but they were fully booked, so they helped us set up a booking for later. I’d definitely recommend making a reservation to ensure you get a table!

The biggest highlight of our Melbourne trip. The atmosphere, food and service were so memorable. It is truly an amazing experience I would encourage anyone in the CBD to book a table and go. Loved it so much I ended up buying some horns from the place to take home with me. Very accomodating for a nut allergy and specially bought a dessert out for my girlfriend as all the desserts on the menu had nuts in it. Service like this is unmatched. 100/10

My husband and I celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary at Mjolner last night and it was fantastic from the moment we walked in the door, the service, food, atmosphere and entire experience was amazing! The servings were large and cooked/prepared to perfection, I had a Gin cocktail which was delicious, the mead was also lovely, my husband had the beer by the horn which was a great experience. Thank you team and especially Bella for making our night so special.

I attended this gem of a venue for my mates bucks party dinner, it definitely set the scene. Everyone enjoyed the atmosphere and it was great energy for everyone. They were BUSY, so staff did their best to try and accomodate all the tables in their section. I loved the viking theme and beer out of the horns. We enjoyed our time here.

I booked this for a suprise birthday for my partner. We both had an amazing experience and the food was delicious. Although there was to much for us to eat, we loved having our leftovers for lunch the next day. There was not one thing we could fault, and have already recommended this place to a few. Thank you for making the occasion special.

Amazing restaurant with a very unique experience. Absolutely loved the service, food, and ambiance of this place. Every dish was well prepared and presented. Must try if you are in Melbourne. Highly recommend making reservations.

My girlfriend took me here for my 21st birthday and we loved every second of it. We were taken care of by Leslie for the night, who was so charismatic, intuitive and warm. Definitely made the night extremely enjoyable for us. In addition all the other staff were just amazing and professional throughout the night The food and drinks were amazing and the atmosphere was super cool and in depth. I also received a lovely written happy birthday card and a themed shot glass, which was super kind from the staff I’d recommend this place to absolutely anyone and everyone. 10/10

Weddings and events here? 10/10 without a doubt. Walking into this place felt like stepping into another time. The vibe is unreal, you really have to see it in person, photos just don’t capture it (and yes, I’m a photographer, so that’s saying a lot haha!). I shot Daryan & David’s wedding here and had an absolute blast. You’ll love it as much as I did!

Fun establishment for a nice dinner. The viking theme is great and the staff are all very engaged in making it an experience. You start the night with toast of mead and then when the meal is served you choose your "weapon", meaning the knife you will be using to cut your meat with. There are several different knives to choose from which makes it good fun. The food was also very good, I particularly recommend the short rib.

Came here for a birthday with friends. Service was fabulous, food was fantastic (the menu was smaller than most, but this is something that I prefer) and the venue was such a unique space. It was one of the best experiences dining out I've had in a long time.

My husband LOVED this place and the experience. The decor, the service, the food... everything was perfect and I can see why this place is so loved. Honestly, a viking themed restaurant could be an absolute flop if executed poorly but Mjolner managed to pull it off superbly. My personal favorite was the servers who were in theme and may have made the experience x10000 times better (forgot his name but he had an awesome voice)! My husband loved drinking beer from a horn. Highly recommend checking this place out!

Party like a Viking! I was never much of a fan of Nieuw Amsterdam but had always been keen in visiting Mjolner in Sydney, so I was happy to discover they were opening in Melbourne in that venue. The upstairs dining area is fairly minimalist with a few viking themed murals and a scattering of shields and weapons on the walls. The main room can be quite noisy but there is a side room that is a little quieter, although the blaring hip hop music jarred with the rest of the theme. The downstairs bar is cramped with stools and high tables that are dangerously unstable. There are some private 'rooms' and booths which I think would be the better options down here. One thing I did like about Nieuw Amsterdam - the bar was great. Oh well. Drinks were good - a tasty bloody mary was my favourite. You can get your beer served in a cow horn (yes a real horn) if you so wish. Upon being seated for dinner we were offered a welcoming shot of honey mead (don't clink your glasses) and later were invited to select our own steak knife for our meal. They were all individually crafted and something Crocodile Dundee would have been pleased to own. As expected, food is very meat oriented, and the menu is designed to share. The porchetta (that weeks feature) was delicious, and enough for 4 people (once sides were added). We also tried the bone marrow which was very tasty, but did not take up the option of using the bone as a whisky luge afterwards. Knock yourselves out. The friendly and helpful staff dress as nordic peasants basically (vikings are nordic but not all nords are vikings..or something like that). They even get to add extra bits to their costumes as they please. No horned helmets here though - that's not authentic. Overall a good experience, other than the music. It was my birthday and I got one of the special shot glasses as an unexpected gift. Well played Mjolner, I will be back, maybe after a spot of axe-throwing next time.

The ambiance of the restaurant is super cool. It has displays of Viking knives and helmets and Viking music playing. As an intro the hostess gives you a shot of mead in a horn with a presentation toast to Odin. The food was great as well. The braised beef brisket was tender and delicious. You definitely need to order a side with it though. The radish it comes with is more a topping garnish than a side. We unluckily realized this too late and when we added an order for a side of Brussels sprouts it came out way later once we were don't eating our entrees and the Brussels sprouts were just salted and not cooked with pancetta like described as the side that comes with the chicken dish. The sparkling mead was good but the other semi-sweet one I got that was just in a wine glass was too strong and did not taste great. Definitely splurge on drinking your beer or mead out of the horn. It was the highlight of the experience here.

Ok so this to me is definitely a 5. Im not going to bore you with a long review. If you come to this place you sort know what your in for. Service 5 star Food 5 star Entertainment 5 star Atmosphere 5 star Price 5 star Yes the menu is very small. But the meals a very large. When we arrived we didn't know really how it all works. The guy behind the bar was so helpful and made choosing out dinner so much easier. Lastly when they return you how you want your beer make sure you take the horn...

My husband and I went here a few weeks ago and the food was absolutely to die for. That day was a cheat say in every sense of the word. I have to be on a low FODMAP diet for medically diagnosed IBS which means pretty much everything on the menu is really not for me. It didn't stop me, by god it did not stop me for even one second. We had the braised marrow with powdered meat (yes, powdered meat, it is amazing and I want my own personal shaker of it) and glazed with a vegemite glaze and we completely destroyed it. It was so, so, so good! For our main we had the 12 hour slow cooked beef rib and it fell away from itself and melted in your mouth. It was like I had died and gone to heaven. For dessert we had the custard tart, because I love me a good custard tart and it did not disappoint! Customer service was on par and the wait staff answered every question we asked with gusto and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. My guts the next day however did not like me one bit. 10/10 Would ditch the low FODMAP diet for again.

What a fun place to eat at! I loved the beer in the horn. It was silly that you have to pay extra for the horn-- that should be the only option and price in my opinion but hey, whatever. Lovely ambiance as well

This was an amazing night out! The food was outstanding in quality and taste. The staff were friendly and attentive and had great explanations regarding the cocktails and the menu. Highly recommend for a delicious night out and I can't wait to get back there.

Awesome Food. Excellent Drinks and the staff were outstanding. Worth every cent. Highly recommend.

Coolest place ever! The food was amazing, but the experience was what sold me! Beer in horns, brick walls and tiny rooms/spaces for private eating experiences with an all over Nordic feel. We ate on the lower level. Having not been before (being that I'm from the USA, and this is in Melbourne), the waiter was amazing at explaining menu choices and the unique drink options--of which there are many!! Highly recommended!
