The Lowdown · AI digest
How we read reviews →Southbank's understated wine bar over the Yarra, pairing a tightly curated modern menu with an outstanding, ever-changing wine list.
Understated and unpretentious rather than showy, a light-filled dining room looking over the Yarra to Flinders Street Station; intimate and calm, suited to celebrations and pre-theatre dinners.
An extensive Australian and European wine list with tastings offered before you commit, knowledgeable front-of-house staff, a small seasonally changing menu, and an arranged river-taxi to the tennis during the Australian Open.
No single cultural lineage. positioned as a modern Australian wine bar with a strong Australian and European wine focus rather than a specific heritage cuisine.
Reviewers repeatedly call the wine list and $49 Wednesday steak-and-wine night very fair for the quality, though one reviewer found a set-menu function's portions too small for the price.
