We had an amazing experience at the Glass House at the Wharf Hotel. The food was absolutely delicious, and we're so glad we chose this beautiful venue for Mum's intimate birthday celebration. The highlight of our visit was our server, Nikkita, who went well above and beyond to make our afternoon special. She made sure everyone was well looked after, and her friendly, attentive service truly stood out. With incredible food, stunning views, and exceptional service, this is a place we'll definitely be coming back to. Highly recommend!

Had such a wonderful time at Glass House! ✨ The service was fantastic, the food was absolutely delicious, and the whole evening was amazing. The **Paint & Sip experience was so much fun** and made our date night extra special. 🎨🍷 And the tiramisu was absolutely out of this world! 🤤 Definitely one of the highlights of the night. Highly recommend it for a fun and memorable night out! ❤️

Honestly, such a lovely experience from start to finish! The customer service from Kylie and the whole team was absolutely amazing. Everyone was so friendly and attentive. They made sure we all had a great experience in the Glasshouse. The food was delicious — fresh, full of flavour and beautifully presented. The platter was devine! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming (even our heater was switched on in our Glasshouse) and the staff made the experience even better. We had such a great time and will definitely be back. I’d 100% recommend this place to anyone looking for amazing food, stunning view and even better service! A special mention to Kylie, who really stood out. She was wonderful from the moment we arrived and went above and beyond to make sure we were looked after. Her kindness, genuine smile and amazing customer service made such a difference. Thank you Kylie, you’re a gem!

Unique dining experience in a gorgeous themed private glasshouse that overlooks the Yarra river & Ferris wheel. There are speaker pods to play your own music and a little heater to keep warm. We were celebrating my twins 21st birthday and the friendly staff went above & beyond making our celebrations a memorable occasion. We loved the food & service. Thank you again to the wonderful, beautiful & friendly staff Chels, Kylie & Nikita who exceeded our expectations from booking right through to end of night. Highly recommend.
