The best Australian restaurants Melbourne

Modern bar and restaurant with a wide range of Australian food, all with a superb view of the docks and the waterfront. Harbour Kitchen welcomes you for all types of events: a wedding, a birthday, a corporate party, or simply for the pleasure of getting together with friends or family. Catering options and menus are easily constructed to suit any occasion or budget, and each function room is adaptable to any occasion. All in a beautiful setting.

Devastated by a fire in 2014, the brand-new building reopened in 2016. It's one of the few bar-restaurants overlooking the beach. On the menu, starters include oysters, vol-au-vent with crab, caviar and beef carpaccio, or for vegetarians, pumpkin pie. Meat is the mainstay of the menu, with a fine piece of Black Angus. Some fish and vegetarian dishes are also available. All excellent! Excellent wine list.

A large room with an open kitchen on the first floor and a second, more intimate room upstairs, in a modern setting. The ambience is a little like that of a company restaurant (a large bistro for some), but you soon get used to the convivial atmosphere. The menu features charcuterie (black pudding, chorizo, foie gras...) and oysters as specialties, but also salads, meat and fish to suit all tastes. The chef's selection menu costs AU$ 88. Excellent wine list.

This restaurant, tucked away at the end of an alleyway, is the perfect place for breakfast or brunch. The menu features hearty bagels , as well as healthy options such as salads and acai bowls. Gourmets will also find something to their liking with a revisited French toast. As for beverages, Australian coffee in all its variants takes pride of place, but lovers of fresh fruit and vegetable juices will also find something to their liking. In short, an address that should appeal to the widest possible range of tastes.
