Recently got married and had our wedding reception at Alexanders grill. They are usually not open for lunch on a Saturday afternoon and were kind enough to have us. The location of the restaurant is ideal walking distance from the treasury building where we got married. What drew us to Alexanders grill was the truly luxurious ambiance which strikes you... More

Had dinner here before going to the Theatre. The service was very attentative without being overbearing. The food was delicious and the wine selection excellent. The decor gave a lovely feel of opulence but the service was welcoming. More

We arrived without a booking and with grandchildren (10 and 8) in tow and the restaurant was almost full. The maitre d' offered us a private room and engaged the children in a natural and friendly way. We thoroughly enjoyed not only the excellent meal but the whole atmosphere. It was a fun experience.

We had a work dinner at the Butchers Grill - the whole team from Quest on Bourke, it neighbours our property. The group kept growing and shrinking and moving. The staff were brilliant about all of our group, no issues with people moving about to network and chat with our Directors. The food was stunning, absolutely great - the whole... More

This restaruant was near our hotel so we gave it a try. Walking in the decor and atmoshpere was great - mirrors, and 18th century drawing room feel complete with red flocked wallpaper. Our seat was near the open window in fornt which was nice. The steak was average; I expected better for the price, plus they forgot our sauces.... More

Our hotel concierge recommended this steak house when we asked about a steak house close by. We went early, so the place was not busy, we made reserverations for 6:30, and got a table by the window to people watch. It was the summer, so the windows were open, nice breeze. The only negative thing about this lovely window seat... More

First of all I will say that the food standard at this restaurant was very good. It's a steak restaurant and whilst not the best we have had, it was more than acceptable. My issue with this restaurant was the lousy service. Our party comprised three people and we had an early booking for 7pm, so when we arrived the... More

This restaurant has lovely ambience and very good service, unfortunately the chef was having a bad day when we came. I ordered medium rare meat, which came as well done. I was not prepared to wait another 20 - 30 minutes to have it made again. My partner ordered seafood pasta which was inedible. The fish was rubbery. We sent... More

We went to this restaurant expecting it to offer great steaks. My partner ordered a mixed grill which turned out to be quite a strange combination of very rare lamb and burnt continental sausages and none of it was well cooked. I ordered a stuffed capsicum which was quite a soggy capsicum stuffed with mince that was not quite warmed... More
