Arriving at 202 Normanby Road in Southbank, guests will go up to Strato Melbourne via a private entry located in the stunning lobby of Oakwood Premier Melbourne. Upon arriving at the 40th floor, the impressive entrance allows guests to experience the height of Strato from the moment they arrive at the venue, acting as a glass floor sitting above the bustling city. To the left of the foyer is the main Strato Bar and Lounge, hosting up to 70 people and to the right sits our restaurant. Above both areas sits Level 41, an exclusive function and event space dedicated to supporting special occasions, private functions and V.I.P’s who need privacy with a view.
Strato Bar boasts a 16-metre stone bar with an illuminated glass brick frame.

This place is better for views and atmosphere than it is for the food. To be fair I don’t think you’re expecting the best meal of your life when going to such a fine dining establishment such as this one. Drinks: 4/5 really creative cocktails Food: 3/5 cod would be the top main Atmosphere: stunning views and beautiful decor

Entering the restaurant on the 40th floor, we were stunned by the city landscape views that encompasses the whole restaurant. The view from our table was just wow. We got the feed me which was actually an insane amount of food. The oysters had a lovely chilli soy caramel dressing which was interesting. We felt like the tartare and carpaccio starters could've had a bit more oomph. The beef starter on the sourdough though was a winner, I mean everything is good with bread. For mains, the cod was accompanied by a burnt carrot puree, leek and parmesan croquette, black garlic and tomato salsa. All unique flavours which we enjoyed together. The steak was cooked well with good accompaniments. The fries were also ridiculously good paired with the truffle aioli. Desserts were nice simple flavours but didn't wow us. We were honestly so stuffed by the end of it. It's a great spot for some after work drinks if you're in the area. We got the mango mezcal margarita and Japanese highball which were both fantastic. Overall, the food was nice but needed some ooph to it but the views were just unreal.

Valuing ambiance and quality dishes, I booked Strato to celebrate a special occasion. While the dishes were delectable, we were seated at a table which had a bollard blocking the city view. This was despite having paid extra to get a table with a view, at the time of the booking. Thankfully, after raising our complaint we were moved to another table that was available and had an unobstructed view of the city. I would recommend limiting the additional table with a view cost to tables that have unobstructed city views. Nevertheless, an enjoyable experience.

We recently had the pleasure of having our wedding at this amazing venue, and I must say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The team, led by Alex, the event manager, and Sam, the event coordinator on the night, truly went above and beyond to accommodate all our wishes and ensure that our day was everything we had hoped for. Alex's guidance and support throughout the planning process were invaluable, and Sam's attention to detail on the wedding night made everything run smoothly. We are incredibly grateful for their dedication and professionalism. The bar staff and waiters were also exceptional. We had so much positive feedback from our guests. Thank you to the entire team for making our special day truly unforgettable.
