The servers and the staff were one of the best I have seen. They were so kind and courteous that it made the whole experience so warm and comfortable. The food was good but I hope that you add a few more veg options. The Bao dish was the best and it was really really good. Overall we would recommend this place to our friends because of the overall experience.Thank you.

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.
