Embla

Some restaurants are built for a casual neighbourhood; others secure a calibre worth travelling for. Embla manages to be both. Set within Melbourne’s vibrant CBD, it is part wine bar, part restaurant, and all about showcasing Victorian produce and organic, local wines. A custom wood-fired oven and grill adds smoky depth to a seasonally rotating menu of sharing plates, where native vegetables, roasted meats and local seafood take centre stage. A thoughtfully curated selection of wine complements the experience, made up of biodynamic, organic and natural winemakers from across the country. The space is warm, anchored by dark timber accents, exposed brickwork and moody lighting that adds charm to your meal.

Tatler Tip

Settle in for a glass of wine from Embla’s expansive collection before taking a seat for dinner.
