I took my boyfriend here for his 22nd birthday. Honestly after seeing some of the reviews I was worried about the food but my experience here was outstanding. We got the lamb rack, sirloin steak and mash potatoes for the mains. Haven’t stopped thinking about the lamb, it was that good. Everything except the scallops was delicious, the scallops fell a little bit for $32, I was expecting better flavour. I got the moodydance and another yuzu cocktail, they were perfect. The views were immaculate and the atmosphere was so romantic and moody so perfect for a date, or night out with your partner. Would definitely recommend and go again!!

It’s a difficult review this one. The food was good, the view amazing but the service was sterile and robotic. After some cocktails, we opted for the Chefs menu. $130ph and we would leave it to the Chef. The starters were great. Oysters beautiful. The Mains were good. Not great. And for the money a steak and piece of Salmon didn’t really tick the value equation or wow factor. Dessert was good and they acknowledged our Wedding Anniversary. The service. Well this was a let down. There seemed to be a constant pressure to clear plates that we were still grazing on and getting the next course served. The timing was just off. Then at 8:23pm the waitress handed us the bill and informed us the table was booked at 8:30pm so we needed to finish up. We were still finishing our dessert! So hurriedly we finished up. We then requested if we could go the bar area and have another drink. No problems but we needed to settle the dinner bill first. Odd. Then in the bar area we were treated like brand new customers and the waiter who had served half of our dinner went through the cocktail menu again! It seemed to be just about the process without connecting at all with the customers. For the money - expected better service and it detracted from the experience. Also a $35.00 charge to guarantee a window seat?.When the place is not full that is not justified. And when we left after 9pm our table was still vacant.

Strato Melbourne nails the experience—good food, smart service, and a view that actually justifies the hype. It’s one of those spots where the quality matches the atmosphere, not the marketing. Worth it, especially if you want a place that feels elevated without trying too hard. #BestFood #DeliciousFood #StratoMelbourne #MelbourneEats #MelbourneBars #AustraliaFoodScene #MustTryMelbourne #DiningWithAView #AussieRestaurants

We booked this restaurant for an evening meal. The rooftop bar had stunning views over the city and we were lucky to be seated by the window. The starters were good overall, we had tartare and scallops. The scallops were slightly cold. Moving onto mains, we both had Striploin steaks and ordered 2 sides of chips. The steaks were a little chewy and again, on the colder side. The chips arrived later to the mains. We needn’t have ordered two sides of chips as these are huge portions. 1 between two would have been generous. The chimmichurri dip was slightly bitter, however added a freshness to the plate. Overall, the service was good, atmosphere nice, views stunning but the food could have been better, especially for the price.

Nice place for the restaurant and view, pet friendly as well. However, the hotel experience and customer service honestly was horrible and will not go back again, manager doesn’t know how to solve the parking problem, bad communication and welcoming service, restaurant for new year eve was fantastic, the crazy pup style was not what we expected, but then there’s a quiet side we can just hang out, sit and talk. ❤️ or you can book the restaurant late till the time of fireworks 🎆
