This restaurant served a degustation menu that was a demonstration of not just magnificent cooking skills, using largely their own grown fresh produce, but the creative skills and patience necessary to present in a beautiful way. This food needs to be enjoyed not just for its variety and flavour, but also for the skill and dedication needed to present it to the table in the way that it was. It was a wonderful experience enhanced by a wander around the grounds and vegetable gardens.
An incredible experience dining at one of the World’s 50 Best Restaurants 2021 @braerestaurant
The restaurant is set on an organic farm where ingredients are sourced and freshly picked (or from local suppliers).
Every bite was creative and delicious, paired with matching non alcohol beverages.
We also stayed at their guest suite with breakfast the next day that included freshly baked pastries and bread!
Highly recommend this unique experience!
Our favourite restaurant and accomodation in Melbourne.
We have been here a few times now and every time it is even better than we remember. Expensive but worth it. I love their values, ethics and all-around sustainability aspirations and would highly recommend.
Super fresh local produce ! Service is fantastic and the flavour is superb, delicious surprising flavours - Dessert : Satsuma plum sorbet with ginger , tomato , seaweed (Yes seaweed!) and cream cheese . Fantastic umami flavour. After many courses left feeling very satisfied and not uncomfortably full
Our world urgently needs sustainable, energy and FOOD as well... 🌍🏡🦆🍋🫐🍽️The beauty of Brae Restaurant is daily picking up fresh vegetables from their garden and serving us, so some tasty,delicious food and creativity,decoration were there too .This concept is a good and common idea in Europe .We need to start to educate the community and also encourage environmental groups to be planting food trees and plants everywhere ...

Brae offers unique dining and accomodation experience fit for a special occasion. A few noteworthy highlights are:
- a summer minestrone soup, where each vegetable speaks for itself in an wonderful ensemble. Never had anything like that before
- a salad with 35 different fruits, vegetables and herbs with a very light dressing. Delicious ingredients that taste exactly as they should: textural, fragrant and tantalise the tastebuds. It sounds almost strange that a salad would be the highlight of this meal, but it was. Hats off to Nina in the garden for doing the heavy lifting on that dish.
- going for a walk through their organic garden mid meal with a drink in hand. This 30 minute stroll was the right break to make a little bit more room for a few wonderful desserts.
- staying at the luxury accomodation enjoying even more food through supper and breakfast the next morning. For those who can be tempted there’s a wine fridge with something for everyone. We enjoyed a half bottle of champagne and watching the sunset while enjoying cheese.
Brae goes to show it’s truly the simple things in life done well that are the greatest.
