Fourth time here and not one disappointment. The food is great, another level in comparison to any other restaurant in Melbourne. The service fantastic and professional with some of the best Italians in Australia. The owner is a careful and caring person, always there, for anything you need. If I could I would come back tomorrow

Catch up lunch with old work colleagues on a stifling hot Melbourne day. Very nice spot for lunch. My kusundi eggs with avocado were lovely. Not absolute top draw but very satisfying. A nod to the visionary who chose Duke’s riesling for the wine list. Top choice. That topped things off very nicely. The coffee to finish was a cracker. Add points for two of our servers who were polite, efficient and very accommodating. I love cheese and will get into that when I return here.

I thought overall it was a nice experience-reasonably good atmosphere for couples and smaller groups. The service was attentive.
I would describe the menu as a mixture of traditional Italian dishes with dishes that aimed to introduce a bit of a modern Australian twist. Both entrees we ordered were seafood. I found the scallops a bit overcooked. This was a shame as they suppose to be the star of the dish. The second entree dish was sashimi-like swordfish carpaccio. That entree was much more enjoyable & technically better executed.
For the first main, we ordered a pasta (rabbit) that was typically a Northern Italian dish. The pasta was cooked perfectly. It had the traditional taste & presentation. The second main was the duck cooked in a traditional Italian way. The simple presentation reminded of a home cooking. The taste of the duck and the souse were great, but as a whole, the dish was lacking in presentation. A half duck floating in a dark colored liquid? Would look good in a trattoria ... so is it? Judging by the prices it’s not!
The desert (the peach) on the other hand - had a great presentation, but failed to impress with its the combination of flavours. Too much was going on on the plate and some of the elements didn’t make much sense. I think that some of the traditional Italian Deserts would match the Grand’s menu much better.
An extensive wine list including good international wines but ONLY if you buy by bottle. However, very little choice - if ordered by glass.
Overall, good but not great. Definitely overpriced for what it is and not a good value for money.

Reviewed By Larry S
Haven't been for a while and unfortunately the food was hit and miss. We shared a few tapas and some fresh barramundi. The fish was excellent, juicy, salty with a crispy skin. The artichoke was bland and needed a lift, maybe citrus. The scallops were tasty but tiny lost under the breadcrumbs. Standout was the manchego and spinach croquet. Just ok for a late night feed.

Love the atmosphere, service and wine list at this restaurant. The food was great however I did find the two paella dishes tasty but a little overdone. We tried many dishes on the menu, the lamb was just beautiful.

Reviewed By Steve G - Hampshire, UK
The environment is attractive and comfortable, and the tasting menu was excellent, as were the accompanying wines. Service was, for the most part, excellent, except towards the end when we were moved from the dining room to the bar to finish our meal. At that point we seemed to have become lesser people, and the wait for our cheese course was irritating.
It is understandable that a popular restaurant like this should want to maximise their throughput, but if a tasting menu with accompanying flight of wines is on offer, the reservation system should allow enough time for this to be enjoyed. Perhaps the accountants are taking control!

We went for dinner here based on this restaurant receiving "one hat" in the Age (Melbourne newspaper) Good Food Guide. The food was very good. We had the Cured swordfish and Crab tortellini for starters. Both we excellent. For mains my wife had the duck which she said was excellent. I had the lamb noisettes which were not terribly exciting. We did not have any place for dessert. The service was friendly and efficient.
