    This was an exceptional experience. Everything had been thought out to the minute detail. We have been to many 3* Michelin restaurants in Europe and this restaurant equates to the best. The food was wonderful , the service second to none. The culinary theatre was spectacular. You felt the team worked like a well oiled machine. Everyone pitched in, down to the sommelier also waiting on table. You felt that this was a culinary family who were keen to ensure that every diner had the very best experience. This meal was a celebration of our 50 th wedding anniversary and the team were keen to acknowledge this. There were so many nice touches that there were too many to mention individually. The wine parings were super and the sommelier was helpful, well informed and above all enthusiastic about the wines he had on his list. This is a real gem one that Melbourne and Australia should be really proud of. We can not recommend it more highly.

    the menu for food and drinks lacked enough options. I would not say it was an outstanding experience in the sense that there wasn’t anything that was ordered that I can rave about however the service and atmosphere was nice and I’d probably come back again if I was looking for a casual week day spot.

    Been to Paris Go many times in the past year , after a break of a few years. Love the classic French menu, and the rooms are not too large, so it doesnt get too noisy. Staff are always very pleasant and efficient. Looking forward to returning soon, and introducing others , who have not dined here before.

    Brilliant meal! The steak tartare oysters were a stand out as were the beetroot with beans and the spring salad. And you have some great non-alcoholic options - much appreciated - keep them coming! (The chilli that reappeared in different dishes felt unnecessary and like it muted some of the nuance of other flavours.) Thanks for a lovely evening.
