Waterfront Southgate

Waterfront sits at the Southgate Precinct on Southgate Avenue at Southbank, on the south bank of the Yarra River near Melbourne's CBD. A much-loved restaurant, it makes the most of its lovely riverfront position — combining quality food (with a focus on seafood) and a good drinks offering with a relaxed setting and gorgeous views over the Yarra and the city skyline.

The appeal is that combination of quality food, a good drinks offering and a beautiful riverfront Southgate location, ideal for a relaxed lunch, a special dinner, a meal with friends or drinks with lovely river-and-city views. The gorgeous waterfront setting and a quality offering make it a real draw, and Waterfront has clearly won over a big, loyal following.

With a 4.3 rating from more than 1,500 reviews, it's clearly a popular, well-loved spot. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular riverfront restaurant fills up over weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly where needed before you go — particularly for a weekend, a group or a table with a river view at Southgate.
