For a french restaraunt it was reasonably priced. I had the beef wellington which was nice but would of liked it not well done.. sauce it came with was tasteless....ate it all though....my husband had eye fillet steak but they had no bernaise sauce...even though on the webpage it says it has it..cant french places get the apprentice each day whip up a fresh batch as it should be a staple on the menu otherwise update ur menu online...might give it another go if they can have bernaise with the steak...happy to pay extra for it.
Good!

Food was great as was the service. Price was a little on the high end but well worth every cent. It's never overly busy which is surprising great seafood selection on the menu.
On a very cold St Kilda weeknight it was a given that we weren't inclined to traverse too far in search of some quality sustenance. We settled on this French bistro, which looked promising.
Now, this place is pricey, but I'll get to that in a moment. But first, the food: undeniably, the food we were served up was of a very high quality. We both had steak - one a classic eye fillet the other a French take on beef wellington. Both cooked nicely with beautiful cuts of meat. The mushroom sauce - clearly made from scratch - was the best I've had in recent memory.
Pommie frites on the side with a couple of kronenbourgs, all round this was pretty satisfying. To finish, the 70% cocoa mousse, served almost as a sandwich with vanilla ice cream as filling, and a lovely lemon tart. All delish.
In terms of negatives, they did forget our entree of smoked pork sausage - no huge deal in the end because we probably didn't need it. While the food was good, you pay for it. The price is high, and given the setting, surroundings and atmosphere, it's a little over the odds. But if a menu is going to be overpriced, the saving grace is that you go home satisfied and your tastebuds fulfilled.
The food was sublime, the service was efficient and our waiter was very friendly. Not to mention, the crème brûlée we ordered for dessert was probably one of the best I've had. We visited on a Sunday evening which may have been the reason the restaurant was relatively quiet, but this place deserves so many more customers! If ever in St Kilda, do yourself a favour and visit Embassy@97.
Thank you for an amazing lunch. ..have not have food this good for a long time,and the service was brilliant. The waitress was such nice and friendly girl and the chef wow what a gem! See you next time in Melbourne!!!!
Great French food. A little gem in St. Kilda. Attentive and friendly waiter and stylish environs. We visited on an evening with two fixed menus to choose between, both were excellent.
Came with a voucher, and what a beautiful bistro and such a great deal.
Amazing food, service is perfect and this place is so cosy and relaxing.
We will be back soon.
