Arlechin, Melbourne VIC

Dear customers, I put this review to inform you about Arlechin. Unfortunately, we are closed from now until February, but we will come back in force to offer you the best possible cocktails and quality service that you are accustomed to Arlechin.
We will also be re-opening with new, later hours for Friday and Saturday.

Totally agree with others - "Quentin experience" is the best. I usually don't drink anything stronger than beer, but tempted by other reviewers I asked Quentin if he can make a cocktail of bitter & sour flavour where I wouldn't feel the taste of alcohol - and it was spectacular!
The service in general is amazing - my wife asked if they had a specific boutique wine to which the guy said that they don't but if we give him a minute he'll Google it out to understand its properties and will see if he can suggest something based on that - again, we were blown away such a positive approach.
For the food, we've tried steak tartar - very good; mugellini - amazing flavours; carbonara - mediocre, I wouldn't recommend, it tasted bland and each flavour was on its own; Delice de bourgogne desert was absolutely spectacular! Still giving five starts for the food - haven't expected such delicacies from a wine/coc.tail bar.

Highly highly recommend.

Fantastic cocktail bar, lots of interesting spirits, and a very good wine list. Ope till late night it's a plus.

Steak tartare was awesome too!!

Can't wait to come back

Had an amazing night at Arlechin, Russell and the team were fantastic pairing the food and drinks to our tastes and were so friendly and welcoming!! The drinks list was amazing with impressive signature drinks and a list of classics they've elevated to the next level. We will definitely be back soon for the unforgettable food and service.

Freshly reopened and we're glad they did! Tucked away in an unassuming laneway in a typical Melbourne fashion, we were pleasantly surprised the moment we stepped into the bar. The decor was simple yet elegant with a touch of romantic vibe. Perfect place for dates.

We were greeted by 2 very friendly waiters who chatted with us throughout the evening. The service was impeccable and warm.

The food was spectacular! We had the midnight spaghetti, bolognese jaffles, steak tartare and the tiramisu. All were 😀🏻. If I had to pick, my fav was the midnight spaghetti. I'll return just for that - and also to try the carbonara! We had 2 cocktails and both were amazing!
