From start to finish this experience was exceptional. The wine selection was spot on, the appetizers were spectacular in taste, presentation and inspiration. The meal was topped off with a delicious and unique desert. Couldn’t ask for a better first night in Melbourne.

Very nice High Tea for special occasion. Quite pricey so would only go there for special occasion. Staff were friendly and chatty, but not very attentive. Had to ask for drinks menu twice (first person obviously forgot.) Had to walk to other side of restaurant to order second drink as no staff were in the vicinity for some time.
