Our French Wine and Food club had a fantastic night last night.

25 people saw this marvellous place excell in delicious beautifully presented food, great respectful service and a wonderful fine dining experience

This is as good as it gets- highly recommended to those that value fine food which is well presented with a minimum of fuss

Thankyou Hayden and wonderful staff!

The restaurant lay out was amazing, dining in a mansion. Service was impeccable and the staff were very attentive. We had the Woodland house menu. The starters were amazing (5 star), however the latter dishes didn't continue to amaze (3.5-4 star). Overall, worth checking out!

We opted for the three course with one glass of wine lunch option. There were two choices for entree and mains and one desert. The house made bread was heaven and we six loved every mouthful of chosen dishes. Thankfully I was able to swap desert for cheese. We six agreed desert might be an option. Loved it. Recommend.

One of the prettiest restaurants I’ve ever been to. The restaurant looked like an old house, the interior was very fancy and luxurious. We opted for the Woodland House Menu at $175 pp. The first courses were snacks, which were scallops, fried potato, brioche, spanner crab, sourdough and savoury danish. The highlight for me was the spanner crab, which was unique and very tasty. The others were good, too, but they were pretty common. Onto the larger dishes, started with calamari, which was cut thinly like noodles with garlic. This was another highlight for me. Next was fish dishes, spanish mackerel dish, which was described to consist sea urchin, but I’m pretty sure it was caviar, and flounder. The fish dishes were very fresh, not fishy at all, the fish was tender, but a bit bland for my taste. Then, there was marron, which had too much sauce in my opinion, and the sauce reminded me of packaged spicy mayo, a bit disappointed. After the seafood dishes, there was suckling pig, which had really crispy skin, not fatty, but tender. It was really tasty, but I like the next dish more, which was peking duck. Usually I find duck meat to be bland, but they managed to make the duck flavourful and tender, the skin was perfectly crispy! For desserts, the first one was passionfruit cream, liquorice, and white chocolate, which was like a passionfruit panna cotta. I really liked the freshness of passionfruit, but the white chocolate was too sweet, I ended up removing all the white chocolate. The next dessert was raspberry jam, tonka bean, sesame. The raspberry jam was, again, refreshing and not too sweet. The crisps on top was also really good! I didn’t find the cream to be too heavy or too sweet, it was perfectly balanced, especially with the raspberry jam. Lastly, there were petit fours, which includes coconut meringue, blackcurrant, chocolate truffles, and macarons. We were a bit overwhelmed by the sweet dishes, we ended up not finishing the petit fours, but the macarons weren’t just sweet, like many macarons, but it had a bit of saltiness as well. The chocolate was really thick, and a bit heavy, but it was heaven for chocolate lovers. The others were not as good. Overall, I can see the value of the food, however, I was expecting more wow factor from this restaurant.

This is true fine dining. Steak is so delicious. So worth for the $$$. No need to use dishwasher. You will finish by no strain on the dish. I will come back next time.

One of the most memorable dining experiences I have had in Melbourne. The staff were exemplary and the quality and presentation of each course was way above the already high expectations I had of Woodland House.

Used to dine here when it was Jaques Reymond but recently visited with a group of friends. I must say I was impressed with the place, service and ambience to match what was they're 8 course degustation. Bold and extinguished flavours that were not confused with quality and proper used ingredients.
A must try for everyone

Food and the service were really good here! The ambiance was on point. The set menu goes for a few hours. The staff was attentive and very professional. Really enjoyed all the various food and desserts in the tasting menu. It was a beautiful house with really inventive food and I would highly recommend to all fine dining lovers.

Came here for dinner to celebrate my mum's birthday. We went for the full tasting menu which was an 8 course menu with the amuse bouche to start with. Wine selection was really good so we got a really nice red wine to drink with the food. Food were really flavourful with standouts being the flounder fish, suckling pig and the marron. The food quality were definitely up there with other two chef hats like Est. Now, you may have heard that the portions are small but for us it was a lot as there were many dishes to taste. Service was good as well with staff being attentive to pacing and very polite and professional. Would recommend people this restaurant for a special occasion.

Really enjoyed our visit on 27 April. The food was excellent and the matching wines truly eclectic (a number of grape varieties I had not heard of). Staff were relaxed and attentive, really put us at ease. We were dining for a birthday and, unprompted, our desert was served with a suitable greeting. Just lovely!

My boyfriend and I enjoy good food, street or fine dining. Where there to enjoy great food, which we did! It’s not about the size of the dish it’s about appreciating the smell, taste, presentation and love that went into each dish, and after 7 courses we had more than enough food! This place is tasteful and staff are well trained and very professional without the snobbery of some other high end restaurants.

A fantastic dining experience in a large quaint Victorian house. Each plate that arrived was beautifully presented with combinations to excite every taste bud. The waiting staff have an intimate knowledge of the food and wines they are serving. The suggested wine pairings have been cleverly thought out and add so much more the the experience. Prices are not cheap, but well worth it for the Wow! factor. This is not the best place for every day dining unless you have a budget to suit, but for a big treat or special occasion this is about as good as it gets for those that are serious about food.

Food is delicious and filling despite the portion being small. Prices are on the steep side, but it's worth every penny. Service staff was attentive and friendly. Environment was not stifling, settings were warm and comfortable. Try to get a seating if you can when you're in Melbourne!
