Best Fine Dining in Docklands

"Style / Ambiance: Featured among Elite Traveler’s Top 100 Restaurants in the World, Vue de Monde is a fixture on Melbourne’s fine dining scene. Chef Shannon Bennett serves four- and 10-course tasting menus in a recently renovated dining room situated 55 stories above the city. Those looking for an extra exclusive experience should book the Dom Perignon Room, a Joost Baker-designed private space that seats up to 14 guests."

"Shannon Bennett’s luxe restaurant began in an out-of-the-way Carlton terrace house way back at the dawn of the millennium, before relocating to a CBD laneway. In 2011, Vue De Monde settled into the Rialto tower’s 55th floor and recently scored two hats in the 2020 Good Food Guide. Take in the city views through walls of glass, then ponder the similarly breathtaking menu."

"Already at the height of Melbourne’s dining scene, Vue de Monde has raised itself even higher, to level 55 of the iconic Rialto. Rest assured, though, that Shannon Bennett’s distinctively imaginative..."

"Established in the early twentieth century Grossi Florentino is one of the oldest fine dining restaurants in the Melbourne CBD area. When you go to Grossi, you enjoy more than food- and believe me, the food is good. You enjoy the love and passion of a culture steeped in service and honor."

"With a colourful history spanning over a century, the Chef Hat awarded Grossi Florentino Restaurant, Grill & Cellar Bar has contributed to the cultural and culinary growth of Melbourne's dining scene...."

"If your perfect date resembles a scene from Lady and the Tramp, then this Italian trattoria is the perfect backdrop to your pasta-slurping fantasy. This St Kilda restaurant brings together owner Di Stasio’s dedication to the Melbourne hospitality scene, a love of avant guarde art and his familial home of Italy. For maximum commitment to the movie theme, share the Linguine Capri with prawns, parsley, lemons and (that all important ingredient) sunshine."

"RipponleaThe gist: Attica is a creative experience in dining that you can’t afford to miss. Launching into the spotlight after his Chef’s Table episode in 2018, New Zealand native chef Ben Shewry has become renowned for his experimentation with native and foraged ingredients, now a pinnacle in defining Australian cuisine. The food: Combining a farm to table attitude with fine dining, Shewry’s Attica offers a degustation that will give you a fresh understanding of your edible surroundings."

"The food here has always been difficult to categorise, but is quintessentially Kazuki Tsuya's, who has evolved his menu to greater heights of refinement since opening his new address at the centre of the city. Start with the plentiful and intricate snack offerings, from a silken lick of taramasalata on a nori crisp bejewelled with salmon roe to an ethereal chicken liver macaron. Kazuki's mark is on everything, from the left-field brilliance of pickled mussels with meaty tomatoes to hapuka in yuzu-spiked beurre blanc with salty pops of avruga."

"Very close by for us, the area around WTC Wharf and opposite South Wharf was an area we got very well acquainted with during the Metro Melbourne covid lockdown. With the impressive Seafarers Bridge in the foreground this lovely quiet spot is one of our quick and easy go-to’s for a Melbourne sunset."

"Follow the red neon sign that shines like a beacon beckoning the hungry down this very Melbourne laneway landscape. The signature Xinjiang-style lamb shoulder is a feature dish for good reason – chilli-spiked fatty rich meat that’s eaten with sumac-spiced fried Ughgur bread is outrageously good. This is no cheap and cheerful canteen (especially once you factor in booze) but chef Victor Liong’s unapologetic cooking prods the boundaries of tradition for memorable Chinese food not as you know it."

"Head to the city where head chef Victor Liong is creating some truly modern cuisine that is sure to impress. Unbridled enthusiasm from the kitchen sees traditional dishes updated, like the Lee Ho Fook spring onion 'Chinizza': a fried pizza done shallot pancake-style, with buffalo mozzerella."

"This Meyers Place takeaway joint is far more than meets the eye. Venture further than the standing room only entrance and you'll find a secret dining room behind the pizza warmers. Settle in at the plush booths and order giant slices of classic NYC-style pie."
