We booked via phone for table for three people at Waterfront Restaurant located at Southgate in Melbourne. The restaurant is very posh looking, overlooking the Yarra River and Flinders Street station. Its extensive menu of wine, food and beverages got us all hooked. However my colleague and I decided to go for seafood. We knew we won't go wrong. For entree, we ordered the Dragon Roll (AU$28) for around 8 pieces of fresh salmon sushi roll topped with crab meat, seaweed, fresh wasabi and soy sauce.
The fish came in a nice portion and freshly cooked. The tastes were exquisite and fits well into the mouth. I had to say the mulloway fillet was lovely with the big king prawn as its partner. The turmeric sauce blends well, not spicy and has that coconut smell. Love it!
For sides, we only managed to order Chunky thick cut chips with aiolis sauce A$10 and Sauteed asparagus with crispy pancetta A$12.
As for desserts, we wouldn't miss a thing. I had the Lemon parfait, honeycomb topped with a chocolate & pistachio soil, finished with lemon curd A$13.50 but it was a small portion and I wouldn't say it was worth it at all. The tastes were alright but too little.
My colleagues ordered the Mandarin & passion fruit cheesecake, passion fruit sorbet and Sticky date pudding, butterscotch sauce, vanilla ice cream. Coffee and tea are priced at A$4.50 each.
Overall the ambiance is great, service is nice and lovely location.
I'd recommend for company dinners, anniversaries, farewell or birthday parties.
