Ôter is an elegant French restaurant located in Melbourne's CBD, founded by Tom Hunter, Kate and Mykal Bartholomew, and helmed by renowned French chef Flo Gerardin. The name ôter, which means "to remove" or "take off," reflects the restaurant's minimalist dining experience. Gerardin's menu features French classics with a focus on simplicity and high-quality ingredients, inspired by his love for Japanese culinary traditions.

Oter, a contemporary French restaurant nestled beneath a gallery on Flinders Lane, impresses with its inventive cuisine and attentive service. Guests have praised the diverse menu featuring seasonal ingredients, with standout dishes like the prawns, crab, and Flinders Island lamb. While the open kitchen offers an engaging dining experience, some noted service inconsistencies—including hasty plate clearing and trouble attracting staff attention. Despite minor concerns, including the chilly atmosphere and potential issues with wine serving, Oter remains a highly recommended spot for both lunch and dinner, enticing patrons with its delightful flavors and stylish ambiance.

We were seated at the counter where we could see the chefs preparing the food in the kitchen. We enjoyed the inventive and high-quality dishes. The wine list, while small, was interesting and the cocktails were excellent. However, we felt that the service did not quite live up to the high standard of the food.
