    We booked the pre theatre option at Pure South Dining. The preset menu was amazing, beautifully presented and all courses were delicious. Their service was friendly and professional. The view over the Yarra was fabulous. We finished our meal with plenty of time to get to our theatre booking. We will return.

    Our group all really enjoyed their meals. I had the seafood linguine that had a stack of different seafood in it. Waterfront has a pleasant and relaxing ambience sitting outside and watching the world go by along Southbank.

    Staff were excellent and attentive. Food was excellent and we tried almost everything on the menu. Reason for 4 stars was, I found the lobster linguine a bit boring after having the amazing taste of the snacks and entrees. Definitely worth a visit.
