Lovely location, along the Southbank. We ordered the Wagyu beef and the Pork Belly - delish even though the service size is a bit tiny. Great selection of wine. Dessert? Tried their chocolate fondant, 'twas the best!

Approximate cost: $50

Had a beautiful birthday dinner here, and it was a great night. Food is amazing, huge Wine list, and service and atmosphere is fantastic. We had the tasting menu, and by the end we could not fit more in, but everything was so great we soldered on! Keep room for dessert, and the amazing bread they top up during the night! It us very $$$ but I highly recommend especially for a special night out, you will not be disappointed.

We have been here a couple of times and whilst serving sizes may seem small, the quality is second to none and we have never left hungry. The menu seems to change regularly so produce is in season, which is great.

We dined at many places over our wedding anniversary weekend and this surpassed expectations on service. Our waiter was really accommodating and just plain lovely. The menu didn't have too much to choose from, especially for someone attempting to avoid dairy. I couldn't eat dessert at all and was desperate. Our entre was delicious with raw kingfish (by memory). My husband had the chicken breast and I had the pork belly. Both were very well cooked and beautiful flavour infusions. The restaurant itself was strangely organised and the seating arrangement made converstaions with your loved one rather uncomfortable. We were glad to have come quite late so that those around us left, leaving us to dine alone and in peace. Our last qualm was that we purchased a $12 bottle of water from our waiter. Another waiter came and topped up our glasses with tap water without asking and disappeared. Our purchased bottle, although charged, was barely served and we didn't drink the tap water that had ruined our initial glasses of water. The cocktails were also not to standard especially for the $25 price tag. We did unfortunately forget to request our water be replaced or mention to our actual waiter what had happened, so the blame doesn't lie on him, but we kicked ourselves afterwards.

Approximate cost: $26-46

This is one of my fav restaurants in Southbank. Consistency in food and quality. The service is great. Good location and reasonable prices. The portion is not too bad.
Love the set lunches or dinners. It's a must for everyone to try out this place.

Approximate cost: $25.00

Superb service for a large group booking. You get a set menu but you will still be able to choose what you prefer from the different courses. The creme brulee was fantastic, the wine superior - perhaps the riedel glasses had something to do with it. This place is where you go if you want to impress.

This restaurant provides a great selection that showcases Australian produce. The menu changes from time to time depending on availability. My favorites at this restaurant are the steaks which come from different farms around Australia. Match this with the hand cut chips and a serve of salad and Steak and veg isn't just steak and veg anymore!!

If you prefer seafood, the Moreton Bay Bugs or Whiting (when available are a great choice) as is the Crayfish (although a bit pricey).

Service is always friendly and helpful, and during Summer sit outside and enjoy the passing crowds walking along the Yarra.

This restaurant is part of a group that accepts the Entertainment card so you can almost halve the cost of the meal and enjoy some really fine dining.

Approximate cost: $50
