Loved the venue but the food was horrible.
Abalone vegetable soup.. help me god,
Crab meat balls from Aldi supermarket freezer, sticky rice wrap was really salty.
We had to pass around the table heavy communal food plates all night,
5 quails for 10 people, my husband was struggling cutting it in half to share with me.
When the lobsters dish was brought out, 5 half lobsters for 10 people, some tables only had TWO halves between ten people. we eventually gave up, as it was too difficult to divide. ( I heard the groom was fighting with [redacted due to personal identifier] , I think the agreement was 10x 1/2 lobsters and each guest was supposed to have individual plates for all the dishes). I hope I don't have to attend another wedding here. :(

Agreed 100% .... dont think this place has much experience doing Asian style 9 course meal before.
PRO: One of the nicest wedding venue i've seen, and parking on the street was safe and plentiful.
CON: Food was bad no excaping that, some dish were cold when served (cold charcoal chicken and roast duck not pleasent to eat), and the 2 quail for our table of 10 was undercook and cold ... the steam fish look pretty but clearly missing or needed way more ginger, peanut oil, sugar or simply flavour ... it just tasted like steam fish in plain salty soy sauce... and service wasnt as expected, first asian wedding i've ever been where the dish course order was all mixed up, and waiter didnt portion out serving for guests. Food just dumped on the table and we had to portion and serve ourselves.... and why was it not ok to have a jug of water and softdrink on the table had to keep asking and wait for waiters to fill glass.... yet on a table full of kids we had a large ice bucket with plenty of beer and wine on the table for self service.
Conclusion: Having your wedding here isnt a bad thing, just dont op for the Asian style meal courses .... the non-Asian coffee dessert we had was good.

To all the Florian team,

Thank you so much for such a wonderful night! Everyone raved about the food and the service was second to none. The presentation of the reception was absolute perfection and was everything we had hoped for. We couldnt be happier that we chose Florian as our wedding reception. We will certainly not hesitate to recommend Florian to our family and friends and we do hope to be invited there again! Our wedding was the best day of our lives and you were the reason it was.

Kind Regards,
Christina & Joe xoxo

Thank you for providing such a wonderful venue and service for our wedding. We've received a lot of positive feedback from our guests, who have said the atmosphere of Florian is beautiful, and some of which said it was the best reception venue they have been to!

The menu was great and our guests have said that they enjoyed the food too.

I'd like to also thank Kristy for being helpful leading up to the wedding both via email and phone, making it easier for me to organize our special day.

Overall, the whole experience was a great one and John and I had a blast on our wedding day!

Thank you for assisting us with our Melbourne function last evening. The feedback has been very good and I would like you to thank the Florian Events team for the effort they put in to make our evening a success. Please give a special thanks to the Chef and the kitchen staff for a very good meal which was fresh, well prepared and presented and very timely in service. (Personally I loved the vegetables and the chicken). The feedback on the food was excellent.

FEEDBACK was:
Great venue
Great food
Great night

Again, thank you for your efforts.

Kind regards
Margot

Hi Mark & Kristy,

Just a little note to say 'THANKYOU' for the wonderful evening we had celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary at the Florian on the 20th of January.

The elegance and style of the venue was admired by all our guests. The food was delightful and the staff so hospitable and professional.

A special 'Thank You' to you Kristy for making us feel very welcome right from our very first meeting.

All in all you made us feel very special and we hope we will have other occasions to return.

Kind regards

I had my wedding reception here and was very pleased with the organisation, presentation, food and the owners. Simply stunning reception with a boutique feel to it. Our guests loved it and we received heaps of compliments. The only down side is that it is a residential area with time restricting parking but not a huge problem.

Thanks for your comments. Its always great to pass on positive feedback to the chef & staff who work under pressure. And as you know, we have a carpark large enough for around 40 cars & a wide accessible street without parking restrictions so guests can leave their car overnight & get a cab if they're not fit to drive home.

All the best!
Mark
