Waterfront Southgate - Southbank

Been here a few times and whilst the Service, Views and Atmosphere are all terrific, the things that lets this restaurant down are the variable standard of food, and the price. Not sure if we were unlucky enough to have experienced changes in Chefs the four times we have been there, but our first experience there about 2 years ago had us returning the following week, it was that good. Third time we went about a year ago, we gave them the benefit of the doubt that they had an off night - prawns that were served were on the turn, and were sent back even through the waiter had said the chef said they were OK - and we returned for a fourth time about 3 weeks ago, which was just OK, and we noted what we believed to be a substantial lift in menu pricing. Probably will try somewhere else next time.

We went to the Waterfront to celebrate a birthday and again we're not disappointed. We started with oysters which were absolutely beautiful! Our lovely waiter suggested and recommended the Sushi and Sashimi Platter. We were not disappointed. The platter was beautifully presented and everything was perfect! We finished with deserts. Sticky Date and the Lemon Macarons. Again both were fantastic. Would highly recommend the Waterfront.

Went to the Southbank restaurant after walking out of a very disappointing lunch at the Port Melbourne restaurant - there is no comparison! The Southbank venue is excellent. the Service was spot on and was a great experience whereas the Port Melbourne venue was horrifying. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!

Service and food here is beyond reproach. Dinner for two and were shown to a lovely cubicle. Wine list good. Food was superb. Overall a memorable experience.

Arrived without a booking on Saturday night but no problem and well worth it. Great food and service
