The Dill — Where Coastal Flavours Meet Ukrainian Heritage

The Dill has become a standout dining destination in Ocean Grove, known for its focus on fresh, locally sourced seafood and bold, flavour-driven cooking. Built on a foundation of the ocean’s best — from daily catch to quality local produce — the menu brings together coastal dining with a broader, more personal story.

Over time, The Dill has evolved beyond a traditional seafood offering. Seasonal influences and cultural roots shape the experience, with Ukrainian-inspired dishes and winter dinners adding depth, warmth and a strong sense of identity. It’s a kitchen that balances freshness with heritage, delivering food that feels both considered and expressive.

Led by Chef Ivan Roianov and a front-of-house team that reflects the same care and attention, The Dill has earned recognition across Victoria for its approach to flavour and presentation.

Today, The Dill is a true sea and food destination — where coastal ingredients meet global influence, and where every dish carries a sense of place, story and craft.
