We were a group of 6 and ordered the $75 banquet. We had some pre-dinners at home, but should not have...the quantity and quality of food provided in this banquet was outstanding. The service and view were also excellent. The standard of food was high and the flavours were really bought forward in each dish. The dishes then flowed well across our palates. The wines they recommended were good and the raturant pale ale also good. A memorable night thanks Sebastians
I’m not sure if it was the joy of the first restaurant meal post-Covid iso, but dining at Sebastian was a meal worth waiting for. We’d been meaning to try this beachfront spot for some time, so it was a real joy to have this moment.
Our menu totalled $160 for two people, including three courses, one alcoholic drink each and coffee. Most of the dishes (on what looked to be a slightly pared-down menu) are designed to be shared and take their cue from the Basque region of Spain.
Sadly, due to time constraints, the set menu was not available, but that didn’t stop us finding plenty on the menu to please. Standouts were the eggplant and polenta and lamb shoulder. The custard dessert was outstanding (why anyone would order anything else is a mystery).
Service was of a high standard and very friendly and helpful. We had the feeling that the whole dining experience was much more efficiency given set booking times, pay at the table and so on, though we never felt rushed. Tables are spaced enough to comply with the rules and ensure that everyone feels safe, yet the ambience is such that you won’t feel like you’re dining alone in a desert. The only hint of something odd was the waiters’ wearing if disposable gloves which gives off a slight fast-food drive thru vibe, but which is completely understandable given the current circumstances.
We might be facing a Melbourne dining scene that is forever changed in the coming weeks and months. Hopefully Sebastian and it’s flavours of Span are here for the long run.
Too my wife to Sebastian Restaurant last night for the first time and what an amazing experience, we had no booking for a friday night busy period but as soon as we walked in we were welcomed and acknowledged by 4 staff, they check availability and luckily one table available for us.
We had basic starters, Entres then mains. Every dish was amazing, best of all. Service from our waiter just made the whole experience enjoyable, we will be back very soon
