Mietta's Review
It feels a bit like a student house albeit an orange one and it has a great hidden garden with a big old peppercorn out the back. There's a large Orange awning and sign out front, orange walls, menus, cups, straws, bead curtain, all topped off with a melody of subtle oranges within a true 70's patterned wallpaper at its best/worst on the bar and shop fronts. Nice music which could even include classical piano. The mixed modern menu and friendly service top off the package.

Herald Sun Simon Plant, 30-06-09 Score: 34/50 "The colour orange is supposed to make you feel I hungry, so owner Stephen Boyle made it the moniker for his Chapel St cafe. But there's another force whetting appetites here and his name his Harry Lilai. Lilai manned the stoves at Cecconi's when it was installed at Crown and though Orange is not at the deluxe end of things, he's bringing the same fastidious approach to plating and provisioning"
