Reviews for Yarra Botanica
Sandi Grace
This restaurant was great! We arrived without a booking and they let us in. The DJ was wonderful! He had the whole restaurant dancing and singing. The atmosphere was fantastic! The tables and toilets need more regular cleaning. The food and drinks were great! We all really enjoyed this venue which is right on the water. Lovely!

This place is a good getaway after a bustling week with friends. The ambience was great and had ample seating. The view of the city from the restaurant was fantastic. The pricing was reasonable, but the quality of food wasn't good enough. I suggest that if they could serve good food, this place could be an asset.

Just sat there for a drink and ordered margherita pizza which came late! The pizza tasted nice though but the sauce was very gooey. The ambience is quite chilled with the lovely view of the river. A good place to sit down with mates, have a chilled drink and great conversations. Happy days

Went to Yarra Botanica for my birthday brunch which happened to be Father’s Day! The service was fantastic throughout and I really enjoyed myself thanks to the friendly host and staff present who made it feel lovely. The singer was an added element which made the whole place a lot more lively. The food is well priced for what’s on offer and they could surely offer a slight bit more of a variety, as it’s my second time and I was expecting some new items on the menu. However the food that we ordered was great for 5 of us! If you can sit sea facing and not promenade facing it does make a world of a difference! We could hear the walkway metal bridge making a sound throughout the live music session and experience which was the only drawback. The whiskey tasting station was cool and surely super informative for a whiskey drinker like me. A must visit otherwise if you’re in Melbourne!
