Côte Basque

On Crossley Street, Côte Basque occupies one of Melbourne's most storied restaurant sites, drawing inspiration from the traditions of the French Basque country.

Centred around a wood-fired grill and oven, the menu celebrates pristine seafood, fine meats and the best of the season, prepared with simplicity, precision and restraint. Restored mid-century interiors, an elegant bar and a tiered dining room create a setting equally suited to long lunches, memorable dinners and everything in between, while a European-minded wine list and refined classic cocktails complete a place that feels both timeless and unmistakably Melbourne.
