Highett RSL Reviews
We've been to the Highett RSL many times now and have always found the food, drinks and prices to be great so much so that we often take our family and freinds as guests. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The only gripe we have here is that the parking can sometimes be problematic however, we still highly recommend it.

We go to the RSL club every Friday night for dinner and the raffles, and on Saturday morning again for the meat tray raffles.
The dinners are tasty, affordable with specials and Senior meals. The menu is changed regularly and every meal I’ve eaten has been served quickly and is tasty.
We’ve made many friends there and we are very pleased to have somewhere to go that’s familiar with friendly.

Waited over an hour for food to come when it did the steak was dry and could not chew it. The potato and the mash were dreadfully dry. Staff were very friendly

Very average food, not worth the price nor the wait (food took at least 45 minutes to come). I had the battered fish that tasted flavourless, the salad was old, and the chips were all hard. Won't be back.

The signing in process was swift, as long as you have your driver's licence with you and prepared to have it scanned. We met 7 others there and we had a large table. Service at the bar was prompt. Seniors menu available and orders came to table in reasonable time. Join the raffle for meat trays if you're feeling lucky. Sports bar has lots of TVs.

The food was amazing, great deal for a schnitty and coke. The food took so long to come out, we were a table of that orderd with 5 minutes of each but our meals took between 45 mins and 110 mins to arrive. The last 2 only arrived e after following up with staf multiple.
Jay was absolutely amazing, great attendance, friendly service and extremely helpful. Certainly helped to make our ridiculous wait time tolerable.

Private lunch upstairs. Had to go downstairs and get the group milk for the tea/coffee myself. Schnitzel was not drained before putting on the plate, very greasy, the salad dressing had so much sugar in it I couldn't eat the salad, 😡 cheesecake was a commercial brand and frozen. Either the cook is a smoker or doesn't taste the dressings once made or manipulated. 0/10. First impressions count. The young male and female Servers were nice and helpful upstairs on the day.

Never been here before but friend playing gig here on Australia Day so went and wow what a great time! Joshua played 3.5 hours of Aussie hits and the crowd at Highett RSL loved him! So much so he was asked to extend his set. The venue has dining area, bar, pokies area and an area to follow the horse-racing. Now gambling isn't my thing but drinking Proseccos, eating salt n vinegar chips and listening to classic Aussie music is! Manager gave us membership forms and noticed membership gives you discounted drinks. Some parking behind venue or else in street. Great day. 27.8 here to see Joshua, play, he is so good. Enjoyed Proseccos.

My first visit there. A warm welcome as we entered the club. Food was delicious and served in a timely manner. The atmosphere was perfect for sports minded people. Reservations recommended, although we were able to get a seat on the night we went there. I would go there again.

Lovely relaxed RSL. Super friendly fun natured staff, good food, good prices. The veal parma is delicious and great value. The sweet potato fries are pricey at $16 but tasty. The roast of the day was delicious and a good quantity. The chocolate mousse was a nice way to round off dinner. This is good badic every day Aussie food at a warm n friendly RSL. We liked it was not noisy at all. Even a few young couples with babies were there and it was not noisy for them.
They cater for kids.
A family of 2 adults, 2 kids can eat for $45 which is great value if they're on a budget.
Beers for a pint are only about $8.
A very good selection of craft beers too.

Just paid $27 for a terrible Sunday roast. Processed turkey roll. One tiny potato (boiled) and pumpkin. All cold. Never again. A pity as it used to be good.

I have been coming here for years. I love it. There is nothing like hearing stories having a meal and enjoying what the RSL has to offer.
My family and I made an effort to book here monthly. Sign up for membership and enjoy the benefits.

I am a member of RSL and have been coming to the Highett branch for some time with family and friends and we have always enjoyed our meals and the service until last Friday 5th July when I attended with my wife for lunch which was the most disappointing meal we have ever had at this establishment. Our roast pork was tasteless, no crackling, the potatoes were boiled not roasted and the vegetables hardly cooked and were rock hard. The serving size has been reduced and my wife's lemon lime and bitters was also tasteless.
A most disappointing lunch indeed.

Had a meal with friends on Thursday.. my partner & our friends meals were awful.. My paella was dry, no flavour, hubby's spag marinara tasteless hardly any seafood in it. Other chicken scalopini was tough & the steak was very small. Disappointed as we've frequented Highett rsl for over 20years.

Food was nice had roast of the day. Service was so so. No one there to check in people to their tables. After a couple of minutes I gave up and went to counter where you order food and told them I didn't know my table number because no one is checking people. They got someone to do it.

Fantastic food, we had the roast of the day & tofu fajitas - servings were humongous & tasty. Went on a Friday night & won in the raffle - bring cash if u want to buy tickets. Friendly service.

Different dining experience this one. On entry you sign in before being shown to your table. Our 6pm booking included standing for a minute's silence.
We had 12 people in our group and were easily accommodated - it's a decent sized dining space.
Service was ok. A bit slow, but friendly.
The food was not special. Of significance was the value for seniors. My Parma was comparable in size to the senior version yet I paid $12 more. (This explained the venue's demographic)
It was a popular, lively place. Bookings for dinner are recommended

A very pleasant RSL tucked away just off the main Street in Highett.
All on one level with a bar, dining room, TAB and small pokies area.
Food is very good with an extensive seniors menu. Highly recommended for seniors.
Lots of regular locals dine here.
Service is with a smile and very friendly.
Definitely worth a visit.

A very approachable sports bar with viewing for all angles and major events. Food wise - have only had the Parma and it’s been consistently good at a fair price. Friendly staff and decent sized gaming room for those one finger bandits.
I think it’s the modernised, yet down to earth nature of the place that is the main draw cards for patrons. Recommend.

A lovely surprise on entering. Very friendly staff and large areas with seating for meals or a chat. The interior decorating was very relaxing with plenty of greenery. A large display around the venue of past members with history and their medals. Very well done and highlights everyday people who have given service. The meals were delicious and plentiful, very quick service. A pleasure to take my mum and friend out for lunch.
