Atmosphere and service was great as overlooks the bay. The only issue is not having an option with a meal other than chips. For the price having option of vegetables or salad with steak would have been ok other than ordering separately. The separate plates order were of good quality though.

Lovely restaurant and very attentive staff, however pushed us out at the end - had barely finished our dinner and wine glass was still half full. Nothing to suggest when we booked that we had time limit! Was very disappointing.

Fabulous evening catching up with girlfriends in the perfect location. Love our front corner window, waiter was incredibly entertaining in his special menu board presentation and quite attentive throughout the night. Food was delicious especially mussels and lamb shoulder. Best part is we could stay as long as we wanted without being hurried out! Love this place.. will be back 💚

Life long friends from WA visited Melbourne for the Grand Finale & the Sunday 29th was our day to entertain them and decided to showcase Port Melbourne. Quite familiar with the Pier Port Melbourne over 21yrs this was our choice to dine & catch up before a tour around the the locations down to St.Kilda. Weather was not so good BUT got better as our experience over 4hrs delivered the the BEST in Service from our Maître d' Stephen through to our perfect young man that took care of us & am shameful we didn't ask his name as he was terrific. The Menu / foods of our choice were PERFECT ! To top our experience of .... we managed a Car space just out side the Entrance on Beaconsfield Parade...... The Best Outcome for us all today ..... Thank you Pier Port Melbourne !!
