What R dislikes about Botanical:
A group of 4 on a Friday night with a booking at 8:30pm. When we first stepped in the staff was just walking around/right pass us couple of times like we were not there. Finally got there attention but it wasn’t helpful. We were there 10min early got told to go wait at the bar. The bar was super busy and smelly no where to sit or even stand. At the end we came out from the bar found a table of four that already empty... View all feedback.

Excellent!!. and the food was great, staff were very professional and friendly, not many times we drive all the way to the city but we will definitely come back, keep it up
The seafood platter for 2 people was the best I've ever had. I often buy my own seafood from Melbourne's wonderful markets, but they don't have prawns or oysters that flavoursome, and I can't cook scampi to perfection like they do here: not raw, nor ceviche, not cooked. How do they do it? I don't care. When I want perfect seafood again I'll come back here. That's a big call for me. Most restaurants can't get seafood right. Not even in Melbourne.
We hosted our sons’ christening lunch at Botanical and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. From start to finish, the team were absolutely incredible — warm, attentive, and so accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble, even with three little boys running around! The food and service were seamless, and it was such a joy to be able to fully relax and enjoy the day knowing everything was being looked after. We received so many compliments from guests, and honestly, we’re already looking for excuses to host another event there. Highly recommend for a beautiful, stress-free celebration!
