The Atlantic is the ultimate Melbourne dining experience showcasing seafood in its purest form. The restaurant design is contemporary and minimalist and has drawn major inspiration from the famous New York’s meat packers district and the hustle and bustle of the fish markets of yesteryear in both New York and Chicago. A focus is the highly visible refrigerated glass showcase with a picturesque fea
st of fresh fish of every variety on display. The Atlantic offers a comprehensive menu of shucked to order oyster varieties, seafood delicacies, soups and chowders, and hot and cold appetisers available individually or to share. The menu spans the world’s culinary influences as well traditional fish favourites. The Oyster Bar & Grill offers unique oyster varieties, along with a selection of hot and cold seafood dishes. Main courses change regularly and feature a unique range of wild and sustainable fish as well as aqua cultured fish. Customers can choose from a variety of fillet portions or whole fish to share. This 300 seat restaurant is dimly lit and there is an emphasis on timber beams and screens to balance the raw industrial feel, with the interior brought to life with sumptuous fabrics in ‘colours of the sea’. There is a myriad of seating options plus several private and exclusive dining areas. An explosion of colour comes from a series of cobalt blue patterned feature tiles. Outside there is a dedicated al fresco dining area positioned on the banks of the Yarra to take in Melbourne’s city skyskape. After an amazing meal, head downstairs to The Den. The Den, as the name suggests is the place to retreat for a pre or post dinner drink. (or several!) Expect fireplaces, comfortable booth seating and a little bit of New York.
