AI Summary

East Melbourne bar and dining room praised for succulent lamb rack, steak nights and attentive service.

Warm, polished and inviting, with attentive hosts and a comfortable buzz that is neither too quiet nor too busy. Suited to both relaxed nights and celebrations.

A weekly steak night, a strong wine list, espresso martinis and a menu using fresh produce. Staff are noted for personalised celebration touches.

Contemporary Australian cooking using local produce, with Victorian cheeses and Australian lamb.

Mains sit in the high $30s to mid $40s with pricier wine by the glass. Most feel the food and service justify it, though a few found some plates average.
