I really enjoyed this place. This is one of the best burgers I've ever had - the waygu beef burger - yum. Nice selection of wines too. Service was average.

I've heard some really good things about the Meat & Wine Co in Sydney, but others have mentioned that Meat & Wine Co in Melbourne wasn't that great.
 Fortunately for us, we had a fab time!

Went here on Saturday with a group of friends and I think we were the last ones to leave the restaurant! I recommend that you book a week or so in advance though! We booked 2 weeks before the date for 7 people and the best time we could get on the Saturday was 8:45pm!


We got there a bit early on the night, so they directed us to the upstairs bar until our table was ready. We we lucky to get a table upstairs and our own “VIP” room, which was fantastic because we could tell that downstairs was very noisy. 


We were waiting on a few others to come, so decided to order some entrees to share. We picked the Salt & Pepper Calamari with gremolata sauce and Pork Belly with a light salad and roasted peanuts. The calamari cooked perfectly and the gremolata sauce added a lovely tang to calamari. The pork belly wasn't that great though. It tasted good, but there was nothing special about it.


Our mains came out at around 10pm! So be prepared - you might be having a really late dinner! For the main, I had the Rump steak cooked medium-well, potato mash and creamy mushroom sauce. I thought my meat was cooked perfectly! Exactly how medium-well is supposed to be; just the right amount of “pinkness”! The mash was creamy and the mushroom sauce just bought the whole meal together!



I was quite full at the time, but I couldn't resist ordering some dessert. I ordered the Warm Chocolate & Pistachio Fondante, with vanilla icecream and pistachio nougat. I still remember that moment when you put your spoon through the fondante - the chocolate just oozed out! The dessert was absolutely divine! The chocolate was very rich though, so the icecream really helped! The icecream was nice and velvet-y and the pistachio nougat just added another texture to the dish.



They also have an extensive wine menu. We had the Clover Hill and Vine sav (I think), which was $8 a glass and was very tasty!



My friends and I had an amazing time that night. The service in general was O.K; I couldn't tell whether they took a bit long to see us because we were in a room, or because they thought we weren't ready to order... either way, I thought overall, the experience was very positive. Would definitely recommend the Meat & Wine Co to anyone looking for a special night out with some good company and great steak!

Approximate cost: $30 main, all up $67

the food here is amazing but i found it to be quite overpriced, pretty good service though, would come here again just for the steak yumm

Food here is on the pricey side but is reasonable in terms of fine dining. One of the best steaks I've had in Melbourne, cooked to perfection. A wide selection of entrees available and tastes great. The staff are attentive and ensure your dining experience is pleasant. While selecting a sweet wine, the girl serving our table, happily let me taste different types until I was happy with the wine selected. Definitely will be back again!

Tried this place for dinner for the first time. Was looking forward to it as I had heard good things about the steaks here. I was not disappointed! The eye fillet steak was cooked to perfection - juicy, tender, truly medium rare. I was advised by our waiter to order medium as they tend to under cook their steak - she was spot on. The chat potatoes were really nice and BBQ relish sauce went really well with the steak. Highly recommended!

I dined here last Tuesday and had the lunch specials with a friend. It was our first time dining here - right in the heart of Southbank. Reading previous reviews, we decided to dine here - and decided to get the $25 lunch special with certain meals and a glass of wine/beer or soft drink. The service was great, the staff was particularly accommodating to our needs. The servings were also generous, and I'd certainly come back again!

This was the scene of possibly the best Lamb Shanks I have EVER eaten bar none. Stopped in for a feed on the final night of a boys weekend interstate and we're very glad we did. The quality of the food was amazing. Generous servings, though it's not the cheapest place you'll find - pretty much what you'd expect for the location.

The service we received was quicker than we expected for a fairly busy Saturday night (grand final replay weekend) which was rather impressive.

The service was not as bad as the other reviews have stated, in fact I had pretty good service last time I went there in Melbourne. It has attentive and friendly. The food was really good also, it was a good and memorable experience. It's a pretty awesome place and the furnishing is all original and there's only a clear red sheet between the kitchen so you can see what's happening inside and the chef's even said hi! (:

Best steak i have ever had, although it was a bit pricey.
Was crowded and waiting time was a tad long but all and all, it was a good experience and you get most of your moneys worth.

Approximate cost: $70

We eat here everytime we are in melbourne, unfortunately last weekend our waitress was rude and rushed us, the wine we selected was unavailable(as well as the next 2 we choose) apparently they are changing the wine list! The food is always superb as you would expect with the pricing, just the pushy service lets them down. We would have stayed alot longer and drank more wine and dessert if we weren't rushed out. But alas it is still our favourite place to eat!
