Food was amazing, staff were friendly and went out of their way to serve you and the views also amazing. Price was high but this is what you would expect from this sort of fine dining experience. If your after fine dining perfection then come here.
Taxi is located on the first floor of Transport Hotel

Approximate cost: $35

We have been to Taxi a few times and it is beautiful high quality food with great service. We enjoyed the mixed sushi and sashimi, very good fish and the wagyu and pork were also said to be fantastic by our friends. Desserts are visually stunning and taste great as well. Quite pricey but worth it for a special occasion.

Service is friendly and attentive. The foods are delicious and fresh. Not my everyday kind of restaurant but would be one of my first choices for a special occasion meal. The sushi and sashimi is so delicate and fresh. The wagyu steak is so tender and rich in flavours.

I thoroughly enjoyed my dining experience at Taxi, from the very friendly call to reserve a table right through to the surprise birthday cake from the restaurant. Very friendly attentive staff and delicious food. Dessert was the highlight!

This is a great location for a special night out. There are nice views of the Yarra and Langham hotel from most seats. Food was excellent and service fine too. The choices are Asian influenced and seafood type meals. Probably not a location to bring little ones. Reserve this for an adults only night.

Approximate cost: $35

I went here in September on my birthday and we did the degustation menu. The staff were amazing and they gave me a free champagne on arrival and acknowledged my birthday. All throughout the night they were so attentive and always checked on us. This was one of the best degustations I have ever done. They also catered to a vegetarian degustation menu.

Approximate cost: $130

The second best fine dining experience I've ever had. I've been there twice and I've had both a 4 course dinner as well as the 7 course degustation menu The food is spectacular, the service is outstanding and it has a great atmosphere. The only better dining experience I've had was at Aria in Sydney.

Approximate cost: $50

Best service and wine list i have seen in Australia.
Take visitors here all the time and they have never let us down.
Food is amazing and the presentation is always immaculate.
Must try the strawberry tasting plate for dessert..... My absolute favourite
It is a pricey restaurant, but for the quality of the food, service and location i think you definitely get what you pay for.
Great experience.
Thanks Taxi!!!!

Great dining space that is perfect for business dinners where the view can assist with conversation or the no expense spared first date. The menu is looking a little tired these days due to the vast number of imitators around although execution was solid. Notwithstanding such imitation, Taxi remains a stalwart in the Melbourne food scene, albeit in need of a slight menu update.

The service was impeccable. The food was inventive and interesting, though as with all places like this, the portions are tiny for the price you pay. The view over Fed Square is amazing, especially at dusk. This is a really nice place to go out for as a treat.

Fine dining is a rarity for me these days, and my dinner at Taxi made me realise how much I miss the experience of going to a restaurant, and being treated like royalty. The service was great, and the food was amazing. Very filling and generous for the price. The decor and atmospher is beautiful, and its very easy to spend 3 or 4 hours savouring the experience.

Approximate cost: $35

Location you would think is everything with this place - on the top of federation square looking out over the yarra river and the sun setting, the food is fantastic also, the staff second to none - very educated on the whole menu! will be going back
