Had a wonderful dinner at Waterfront Southgate. It was a beautiful summer evening during the Australian Open - weather was perfect and we sat outside overlooking the promenade and Yarra River. We chose the only have mains and our whole group found meal delicious and good value for money. I had the Toothfish which was sensational and it was great that it came with some Asian style vegetables. Very busy restaurant but service was great.
