Saké Restaurant & Bar Hamer Hall

I’d been here before & it was great. This second time however not as great. Service was sloppy (no one told us what dish was what when the slapped it down on the table). It’s relatively overpriced for what you get. There was a hair in one dish & $75 surcharge for the public holiday, which was over 10% of the final bill. Bit of warning about that would’ve been good & it’s actually BS given our National Employment Scheme. Overall a disappointing dining experience, granted it was a birthday we were celebrating. Oh well.

This place is fantastic for a new years celebration. 7 delicious courses, timed to perfection so you have front row seats to the fireworks. If you want try a cocktail, go for their version of an old fashion - The Zen Old Fashion. Comes with a bit of a show as they pour oakwood smoked bourbon over a green tea ice cube. Bit pricey at $150 + drinks, but worth it for a relaxed new years dining experience.

I went Sake on December 18th in hot & humid weather 36-38. The waiter wouldn’t let me in to find my friend although I told him I know he is already inside of the restaurant. I was directed to the outside table. It was just too uncomfortable to stay outside for the hot foods. I felt unwelcome. Only 3-4 tables were occupied inside. Thankfully they let us to use the table inside with some time limit when we asked..Food and wine was good. But I wouldn’t recommend. Just bad experience.

My husband and I went to this restaurant for our wedding anniversary. We sat at one of the outside tables looking over the Yarra and Melbourne skyline, beautiful night scene. Staff were very attentive. Food was great and we didn't have to wait long for it to arrive. Ordered the fragrant duck and the popcorn prawn, highly recommend both.
