The Carlton Wine Room

Carlton Wine Room delivers in every aspect! The venue and ambience is perfect for a romantic dinner to catch up with friends. You can relax here and just enjoy it. The staff that are friendly, knowledgeable, attentive but not in your face, allowing you to enjoy the food, company and venue. The food is of such a high standard and consistent across the menu, you will not be disappointed here at all. It's a well thought out menu the flows and works with each dish made to share. The food is light but filling and flavoursome, eating here brings joy. The wine list is great and perfectly matched the food. This is an absolute gem and exactly what every dining experience should be. I cannot recommend this place enough and I'll definitely be back to experience the seasonally changing menu.

We’ve heard wonderful things about this establishment, so were eager to try it for ourselves. The interior has a sleek and stylish aesthetic. The food was very impressive, with the waiter being conscious of making sure there were enough portions for the four of us. Although it wasn’t a massive deal, it was slightly unfortunate you couldn’t sample a wine, as it has to be bought by the bottle, so we had to rely on the judgment and recommendation of our waiter to assist with wine selections. All in all, I’d definitely go back!

Looking for an exceptional dining experience in Melbourne? Look no further than Carlton Wine Room. The food is superb - creative, inventive, and perfectly executed with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. And the service is amazing - attentive, knowledgeable, and accommodating. I can't recommend it highly enough.

Overall food was great. The potatoes were nice and crunchy, the rump was super tender and juicy, the shepherds pie was full of flavour, the duck and pork croquette was overwhelming and the baker bleu sourdough was on point. All dishes were fantastic and there was an extensive range of wines available for consumption. Service was decent although the waiter was a little bit awkward.

One of my favourite restaurants in Melbourne. Food just keeps getting better after every visit. Service is warm and individualised, great wine knowledge. Thanks again for a great night guys

Delicious food, fantastic wine recommendations and excellent service from start to finish. Portions are pretty sizeable given that we had a set menu for a table of 7, and were so full by the end we barely finished our mains. Staff was attentive and accomodating with dietary requirements, and even gave us some extra time to finish our dessert we were running past our allocated seating time. Truly a beautiful and special experience for a birthday dinner. I would recommend Carlton Wine Room to anyone wanting a taste of the Melbourne wine bar scene.

Had a great dining experience.Recommended dishesWhole Fish Cafè De Paris Butter Lemon, Anchovy Fried Bread Ricotta Pickled Cucumber, Stracciatella Pickled Mushrooms Chive Oil Potato Focaccia

Delicious food for a shared table experience. Not cheap by any means, but the dishes are commensurate with the price. Good service, and of course, an extensive wine list.

$80 per head daily menu was on point and each dish delicious. Sat in dinning room upstairs. Long before before mains on a Monday, room was full and staff were friendly and relaxed. 2 drinks each bill came to $224. Will come again!

One of the best wine bars in Melbourne. Fantastic wine selection and a solid food menu. The steak was cooked to perfection as was all the little nibbles and entrees: croquettes, stracciatella, confit leeks. The dining room area with normal seats and booths are more comfortable for longer dining durations. The bar and high tables have backless hardwood stools with handy bag hooks. Staff are friendly and helpful with wine suggestions. Great place for date night, catch ups or just to try interesting wines and have a great meal.
