On my last trip to Melbourne I enjoyed a meal at Bottega in Bourke Street with a few colleagues. We enjoyed the use of a private room, a great menu and excellent wine to balance it.

Had an early evening meal on a Saturday night and the service was very good and at no time did we feel rushed. The food was all delicious (had entree and main only although the desserts looked lovely...just too full), and the Italian wine chosen from extensive list was equally good. This restaurants position in Bourke street is great for... More

As you can imagine when the opportunity arose to go there with hubby for a romantic dinner we were both very much looking forward to another delightful dining experience. All started well, hubby ordered wine, I wasn’t drinking as I... More

In the heart of the French end of the city between Exhibition and Spring Sts on Bourke St, this is an exciting eatery with some interesting takes in old favourites for example the deconstructed Cabrese salad. Great home cured Gravalax and fresh fish perfectly prepared. The Tiramisu is excellent, rich and complex.

One of a number of restaurants almost one after the other, I was enticed by the interior & menu. Service, dinner & atmosphere were all pleasant. What was lacking was a wow factor which would entice me to return.
