We have been here a number of times now & are always impressed. My memories are always of their degustation menu (I think I've eaten off the regualr menu but can't remember) which we have paired with matching wines. It is different every time as chefs use seasonal produce - we've had a japanese-inspired meal one time, another memorable one... More

I wanted to go to Taxi for my birthday dinner, and took my partner and in-laws along with me. After discussions with the waiter about how my birthday was the same day as his sister's (so he knew I was the birthday girl), we started talking about the food. We wanted to do the degustation menu, but I have a... More

We have eaten at Taxi many times and have never been disappointed. The food is consistently good, with a lovely blend of Australian and Asian cooking. The specials of the day are always worth listening to and save room for the souffles - they are divine! More

Went for an early sitting and had a great time here. Don't be put off by the chaos and yob factor on the ground floor, upstairs really has something to offer. It was calm, elegant, the staff were accommodating and we enjoyed the meal. The wine list was very good and they had some lovely wines by the glass. Even... More

The food and view are just unbeatable, any dish on their menu is amazing and that doesnt happen very often at restaurants, the view is breathtaking and really shows what Melbourne is all about. I definately recommend this restaurant for any dining experience or a special occassion. More

We held our Christmas staff party at Taxi last year, it was a great dining experience. The food, wine & service weas fantasic. The only negative that i can give is that we had to vacate the table at 4pm to allow for the dinner service to be set up. We will definately be returning to Taxi in the future. More
