I only drank some cocktails here with some work mates. $25 cocktails. They were ok. Of the 8 or 10 on the menu, two were unavailable because ingredients were finished. And the lady serving was, um, a bit at the end of her shift. I get it, just odd for a billion dollar joint. We had eaten at the Conservatory which was top notch.

Dining at Crown Melbourne was an exceptional experience — refined, elegant, and absolutely delicious. We started with the salmon carpaccio, beautifully presented with vibrant slices of fresh salmon, accented by citrus segments, salmon roe, and a touch of herbs. The balance of flavors was outstanding — rich yet refreshing, with just the right hint of zest to brighten the dish. Every bite melted in the mouth. Next, the grilled octopus was a highlight. Perfectly charred on the outside and tender inside, it carried a smoky depth that paired wonderfully with the rich red sauce and asqueeze of fresh lemon. The texture was spot on — soft without being chewy, and full of natural flavor. Beyond the food, the ambiance was sophisticated and warm, with attentive service that made the evening truly memorable. The staff ensured that dishes were served at the perfect pace, and their recommendations were spot-on. 📌 Highlights: Impeccable presentation and flavors that showcase both freshness and creativity. Perfect wine pairings to complement the seafood dishes. Excellent service and a stylish atmosphere befitting the Crown Hotel reputation. Overall, this dining experience exceeded expectations. If you are visiting Melbourne and want a world-class meal in an elegant setting, Crown Melbourne should be at the top of your list 😀 👌 😉

We visited during Spring Carnival and had a great time even just walking through as it was raining the day we visited. So many great cafes, restaurants and things to see and do.
