The ultimate business lunch, starting with entrees, which the waiter was happy for the group of us to share, including snails and a duck dish and continuing with generous mains. There seemed to be smaller, quicker options for a shorter lunch and apparently Comme has a larger dining room that is open in the evening. We ate in the larger... More

Went for mini-dinner with friends on Friday evening, i got a bit of a shock as the entire setup has changed - the bar is now the restaurant and vice versa - I'm unconvinced about the change as I don't think the front room suits - but maybe it will just take some getting used to. That probably explained the... More

We stepped over the threshold of Comme Kitchen into a marble tiled foyer decorated with yellow leather couches and chandeliers. The newly renovated bar was a pleasant and comfortable place to linger and to wait for our table. The service was friendly and efficient and the food was excellent. The highlight was the strawberry souffle with lemon ice-cream on the... More

There are few risks taken here, save for the mistaken ones. The setting is off a laneway and you are ushered through double doors and into a dining room that is cosy, romantic and comforting. Service is attentive and professional. The menu is smallish and there were a few stars and a dud or two but for the most part... More

We cabbed there, and walked back. Lovely food, ambience and amazing service. Have been a few times, never disappointed!

Just had the rabbit dish at Comme and it was excellent - four different cuts, prepared in different ways, including a mini rack of rabbit. At $38 was exceptional value for the work and effort that went into it. I'll be back.

There seems to be some confusion around Comme – is it pronounced ‘com’ or ‘commy’? Being a French restaurant the former would apply, the latter being erroneously influenced by a plethora of (particularly American) restaurant shows where the term Comme Chef is bandied about. In the end does it really matter how you pronounce it as long as you go?... More

We had dinner there and the food was great. The steak was melt in your mouth perfect. Can't wait to go back.

Despite trying to get excited about the menu I could not be bothered with any of the overpriced, pretentious entrees. Mains were only marginally better and sadly i could not be enticed by any of the desserts! Fine dining to me includes a tablecloth, attentive staff and a warm atmosphere...this is the opposite. A real let down given such rave... More

My husband and I have a friend from Sydney who's as big a foodie as we are. So every time we catch up it's over a meal at a restaurant we haven't tried before. This time it was Comme. What a memorable experience. One of the best meals we've had in Melbourne. You can start the night with drinks in... More
