French-Vietnamese? Modern Australian? Indian-Italian inspired? To be honest, it doesn’t really matter how you categorise Coda, so long as you make sure it’s in the “deliciously inventive” list. When we paid a visit this month, the fusion of energy, attentive service and Adam D’Sylva’s menu simply blew us away.

Featured menu item
Salad Medium – Mediterranean Roasted Vegetable salad (v, gf) from $92
Mediterranean Roasted vegetable salad with crumbled feta and baby rocket (v, gf) Medium Platters to serve 10-15
What we ate: Small bites, big flavours – crispy prawn and tapioca betel leaf; spanner crab, galangal, roasted chilli and lime betel leaf; eggplant and tofu lettuce delight; rice paper rolls with Crystal Bay prawns, pork and Hoisin sauce; Hervey Bay scallop, pearl tapioca and Yarra Valley salmon caviar. Then we moved onto the big stuff – the fish of day (salmon with chamula crust) and a specially made vegetarian version of the sizzling prawn dish, filled with veggies, XO sauce, king brown mushrooms, chilli and sweet peppers.
What we drank: Perfectly matched Cabernet Sauvignon by the glass. In fact, we enjoyed it so much we neglected to ask what it was!
Featured menu item
Homemade Tuscan Parmesan Pita Chip Box (800grams) from $48
These homemade crunch delights are so addictive. Perfect with your antipasto or dips or just on their own.
Best bits: Coda’s service hits the mark in a way that many other restaurants can only dream of. They were friendly, extremely attentive, knowledgeable and accommodating.
Worse bits: Unluckily for us, our bub had a fit of tiredness after a few big nights out, so poor Ana had to spend most of the small bites hidden in the staff coat room just behind where we were sitting. Though she was happy because the spring rolls were easy to eat in such a small space. The noise was also quite overbearing at times. A busy, lively vibe can be fun, but not when people at the table next to us were shouting at each other.

How Your Private Chef Helps You with Catering
If you’re planning Catering in Melbourne and want it handled properly, we make it straightforward. You tell us about your event — guest count, date, location, dietary needs — and we design a custom menu around your guests. Our chefs cook everything in our Caulfield commercial kitchen and we deliver it beautifully presented in eco-friendly platters, ready to serve.
You don’t need to source ingredients, hire a chef, or worry about cleanup. You take the lid off, use your own tongs, and serve. For larger events (typically 80+), we can also arrange chafing dishes, grazing styling, and service staff — quoted separately based on your event.
We’ve spent fourteen years catering Melbourne events — corporate functions, weddings, milestone celebrations, family dinners, and everything in between. Over two thousand events served, four hundred verified customer reviews, full public liability and food safety compliance. The food is the same restaurant-grade craft every time, because our chefs stay in the kitchen rather than getting shipped to events one at a time.
Get in Touch with Your Private Chef
Ready to discuss your event? Get a custom menu and quote in one business day — no obligation. We’ll ask about your guests, your venue, your dietary needs, and your preferences, and we’ll come back with a tailored plan.
