It was my daughter's 18th birthday. We were given a lovely private area even though we hadn't specifically requested it. Beautiful and intimate ambience. The service was exceptional as was the food and everyone had a great time. I would highly recommend Pierport for a special occasion.

Far too much salt on chips, otherwise great food and service. Perhaps include a small salad with the fish and chips? Great night at our fave Port Melbourne hotel/restaurant. Staff are the best 😁👍❤️

In the last-minute rush to book a restaurant on Valentine's Day, Open Table saved the day and we managed to book a table for two at The Pier. The interior is tastefully designed and surprisingly quiet, allowing conversation without having to raise your voice. The menu should satisfy most diners, with dietary preferences catered for. We started with the burrata fresh citrus, pickled fennel jam & fig leaf oil which was delicious and augured well for the meal to come. We accompanied the buratta with the optional wood-fired bred, and I recommend you do too. Our main courses were the Summer Risotto and the Fish of the day (salmon on our visit); both wonderful. Popular choices at neighbouring tables included the Portarlington chilli mussels and the Wagyu bolognese. Political correctness precluded me from tasting what was on my neighbours' plates, but they seemed to enjoy their choices. We ended the meal with chocolate pudding, served with ice cream and macadamia. Another highlight was the friendly, efficient and unobtrusive service. Highly recommended.
