Came with some girls and ordered the sweet potato chips with tomato and aioli sauce, potato croquette filled with cheese and angus meatballs with traditional napoli sauce. Great food, great view!

It can be a wait to get a drink throughout happy hour but with $5 basics you can't complain. Decor a bit plain but it's best to park yourself outside and people watch on the docks.

I had my birthday celebration 1/7/17 I was so happy with the food & service.  Staff were amazingly helpful from the time I booked the event date till the night of the celebration. All my friends enjoyed the food, drinks and the ambience that was created. I would highly recommend for anyone to have their function there. The food is delicious and service 10/10

There's nothing I enjoy more in life than complimentary bread. It's even better when you can enjoy your free carbs with a lovely water view. This was a great choice for lunch and all four of us were happy with our food. The reviews on here are quite negative but this was definitely not our experience on the day. My pasta was of the same quality that you will find at any casual restaurant either in the Docklands or otherwise. Despite being relatively empty in the daytime there was a lovely atmosphere which I suppose is almost inevitable when you have nice views. Would have no issue returning

I stopped by here with some colleagues yesterday evening. It's nothing short of the perfect place to enjoy drinks and nibbles/dinner. The staff were friendly and welcoming, offering us a table by the window, where we were able to enjoy the fantastic views. Great variety of beers, heaps on tap. Overall, the ambience was warm, relaxing (despite the rainy weather), food served in good time. I will be back very soon!

We went to the docklands with friends last night to watch the fireworks. I want to say a special thanks to all the friendly and professional staff at the Watermark, where we dined. There were many of us including kids, its not always easy going out and dining with kids, but the staff at Watermark went out of there way to take care of us all; BEST SERVICE EVER :)

The oysters were fresh and tasted great. The seafood dish was delicious and well portioned so it was very filling! The strawberry daiquiri was very refreshing.

The local waterhole for the local corporates as it provides a great view of the dock, has good prices, fusion style pub meals and is easily accessible on the waterfront. Foods reasonably priced with pretty prompt service from the bar staff though it really wouldn't hurt for the chef to season! For lunch today - LINGUINI SEAFOOD $25.0 prawns, scallops, clams, EVO, white wine &
herb sauce & PAN ROASTED SALMON FILLET $29.00 roasted potatoes & citrus dressing. Till next time, this is Our Foodie Find.

A perfect ambiance marked with a descent food on your platter!

It also offers happy hours..so the place the completely occupied on Fridays by early evening!

A good enough place for a couple to drinks and to spend some good time by the bay!

Cheers!

Birthday Celebration - Saturday 5th July 2014 @ 1900. Wow! What can I say? From the time I found the Watermark on the Venuemob website, it had just been smooth sailing. My last venue had sold their business and four weeks out of my event, I was informed I couldn't have my event on the preferred date and that the new owners were not doing events, and so I cancelled because the alternative dates did not suit at all. Well, on reflection, I'm glad that happened. :)

Tess, the lovely Event Co-Ordinator, including the event staff on the night, have been a delight to work with. What I really liked about the Watermark and of Tess, is that, everything was CAN DO. I can't recall if they ever said no to me. In this day and age, it is not easy to find customer service like the Watermark's, from the quotation process right down to post function feedback.

The Pavillion is a wonderful space. I love it, along with 80 over of my guests. :) They were pleasantly surprised by the water and landmark views, the outdoor space and easy access to the main restaurant.

The food was delicious and there was plenty to go round. Highly recommended!

Great food, Great view, Great service. I held a function here on Saturday night to celebrate my engagement. We booked the loft space to host our 25 guests for a sit down dinner. The room was great with views across to waterfront city and the melbourne star. Both Lutfiyya and Tess were very accomodating of our requests in what we wanted to do and how we wanted the night to be. The food was great and very well presented. Everyone commented on how much they enjoyed the venue and their meals. A BIG BIG thank you to Marysia who ran the bar for us for the night. You were awesome and ran everything so smoothly for us. We'll be back for dinner very very soon one Friday or Saturday night.

Watermark is Wonderful. Last weekend I celebrated my 40th birthday in the Pavilion room at Watermark Docklands and I'm so happy with my choice of venue!
The event staff were brilliant, Tess took care of all the planning, allowing me accessn (and helping me) to decorate, and stored my cake for the entire day. I was very happy with all the positive comments from my guests on the night (and still to date) about the venue, the food, bar staff and the waiting staff.
I am so impressed with how well my event went, and it will be a memory I will cherish always!!
I have no hesitation in recommending the Watermark for private functions.... actually, I wouldn't be surprised if I get invited to quite a few 40th's there in the coming years!
Well done Watermark, and thank you once again.... VM

Great place to have after work drinks.. I used to work near watermark and even though its now a bit of a hike my work mates and I still make the trip down here every Friday. The atmosphere is chilled and relaxed and the service is great. We've been here in the bar, the restaurant and for Christmas work functions and are usually served by marisha who's service is impeccable and always delivered with a smile (if you get the chance try her spiced mojito....yum). thanks guys, see you next Friday.

50th dinner & karaoke at The Loft at Watermark. I just celebrated my 50th birthday at The Loft at Watermark Docklands with 20 of my family and friends. We had an absolutely wonderful time. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly, food was delicious and fast to come out. I also had a jukebox/karaoke machine and they were very helpful in the setup. All of my friends and family have since contacted me and raved about the space with its beautiful views of the water and buildings opposite including the Melbourne Star. I can't thank The Loft staff especially Tess, enough for making my 50th a night to remember!

Purchased an online coupon for the seafood platter for two people and my wife and I were impressed. We were greeted by friendly staff, prompt service and a magnificent meal. The platter was fresh, well cooked and had a great selection of prawns, calamari, scallops, fish, oysters, as well as freshly cut chips. It was certainly a great feast for two, and with a bottle of wine thrown in with the deal was great value for money. Thank you Watermark! See you again.

SEAFOOD PLATTER N'MORE. Nice ambiance: we decided to have an early dinner as they opened: patrons starting coming, mainly office colleagues getting for a drink ans some tapas. We loved the ambiance and had a nice experience. Friendly Swedish waitress, good bottle of wine and delicious seafood platter! Yes, happy to recommend and go back. Another plus: easy to get there and, of course, great views 2!

Went there the other day, took 30 mins for food, and got medium steak. I'm no critique but steak was horrible. It was so hard and rough couldn't chew it down sometimes.

Went here for Mother's Day. .... Went here for Mother's Day.
Booked a table at the window, but when we got there we were told we couldn't have it. Pushed the floor manager a little and we got it.

So rough start, but after that the staff were good, the good delicious and quick to arrive, and no other problems.

Won't be back because its too far away from home, but would recommend to others.

Pleasant meal and nice location. My sister and I dined here last week prior to seeing Mariah Carey at Etihad. I was quite happy with our meals and the table service. It was clear that they were quite busy given other concert go-ers were out to get a meal in before the show (we didn't have a booking) but the hostess was able to squeeze us in which was appreciated. There seemed to be a bit of confusion when paying our bill and it did take a while - nonetheless our waitress was polite and apologised for the wait - it was busy and that is understandable.

I would return again, the food and the location were nice.

Our Favourite Dinner Spot. We discovered Watermark back in January 2012, had Valentine's day and my birthday dinner here, dinner with friends, and more and the staff and food and ambiance has never disappointed us. Using Entertainment Book vouchers has not altered service in any way. The food is lovely, although some dishes could do with green veggies. The desserts are awesome, especially the Affogato, Sticky Date pudding and a tasting dessert plate with Gelato's. Thursday night Jazz band is great. Most times they use white tablecloths which we love. Service is excellent, friendly and attentive. The views over the Bolte and the Yarra river are very pretty too. Its a quiet hidden dinner spot in Melbourne.

A few of us dined at Watermark a while back using a VCHR from the Ent Book. No complaints at all, the service was both friendly and attentive on what was a busy night for them. The food was above average and reasonably priced so thumbs up all 'round :)

Nice food and atmosphere. We came here in late 2011 with a meal deal for a 2 course meal and wine. When I arrived there was no-one as front of house, I had to find someone and ask them where I could sit. The offer was for unlimited wine and they didn't disappoint on this, although it sometimes took quite a bit of effort to get the staff's attention. The starter was a plate of dips which wasn't anything special. The main course was porterhouse steak with vegetables which was beautiful - cooked exactly as requested and a generous size.

The location is nice and it has a simple modern feel. The staff were ok but as mentioned before, it was hard to get their attention when we needed something.

Happy Hour!. Really enjoying the happy hour from 4pm.

I work around the corner and its great to go in and grab a nice glass of red after a busy day at work.

The new entertainment on Friday afternoons is a real treat.
And how great are the fatty fries and aioli!

Top points to the new owners!

$10 Lunch Box a winner. The Watermark has just introduced a new $10 lunch deal and I don't plan to ever pack my lunch again. The lunch box comes with a gourmet roll, salad & a muffin, packed in a cute box. Highly recommended

Great spot!. Friends and I frequent this place for after work drinks on a Thurs and Fri and we often go for lunch. We have found the staff to be warm and friendly and I really enjoy the lunch specials. The Chef there seems to know his pasta, try the ravioli when it is on the specials list, it's delicious.

Watermark. Pleasantly surprised!
My partner and I were informed of watermark recently and thought we'd give it a try.
I don't usually venture to the docklands, but I must say, wow.
The views and the food collectively made for a memorable night for us.
We don't get to go out to restaurants much so I must say, if you are looking for somewhere new ...give this place a try.
Thumbs up!

Had our beautiful wedding dinner here with about 45 close family and friends about 4 years ago in the pavilion area. It was honestly the most beautiful night with stunning views. The waitresses and waiters were extremely attentive and went above and beyond. The manager really made our night so easy and was always in contact with us via email and phone. I do remember being a bridezilla and she always kept her cool lol so I'm extremely thankful for that. My family and friends still talk about it to this day, which led to me leaving this review now. Thanks for making our night extra special and stress free.

Not a bad venue at all. Drinks average around $11.00 and the dance floor is ample space for a quick dance. The dining areas are well spaced and live music is played on Turkish night. It's a lovely location right beside the water. You can drink and smoke at the tables outside the club.

Had my 21st in the Pavilion room which was absolutely perfect for what I wanted (a seated dinner for around 40 guests with enough space to still move around and socialise). Communication with the staff was easy and quick during the lead up to the event, and we were able to arrange/decorate the room to however we wanted and all our special requests were met. Overall atmosphere was really nice, the venue had amazing views and the food was great, everyone was extremely impressed with the night!

Killing time before a sunset cruise and there was no hesitation when I ordered a double glass of rosé, a very generous drop for $17 as it was almost overflowing the rim as I carried it out onto the deck. Not to mention a beautiful view of Docklands!

Hosted a work event for a bunch of reality stars and miss universe contestants at Watermark in their Pavilion room and it was amazing! Eloise and the team went above and beyond in the lead up to the event to accommodate us and make sure everything was organised to perfection. The staff on the day were so lovely and did an amazing job. The venue was beautiful, and right on the harbour esplanade with amazing views of the water, boats, buildings and sunset. Everyone had a great time! Thanks Watermark!! 😊😊
