Charcoal Lane Overview

What defines true modern Australian cuisine? Charcoal Lane does, categorically! A vibrant & innovative restaurant set in a 145 year old bluestone building on the fringes of Melbourne’s CBD, Charcoal Lane successfully takes traditional Aboriginal ingredients and fuses them effortlessly into true contemporary Australian gastronomy. Roasted marron fondue is a flavour packed triumph, served with angel hair pasta, lemon myrtle & baby basil. Yellow fin tuna is perfectly cooked and skilfully accompanied by vanilla carrot cream & smoked crystal bay prawns. Assiette of peach, muntries berries coulis & strawberry gum is a heavenly finish. Service is unfailing, smiling and professional.
