It 's been 4 and a half years since I last reviewed Altair and in that time, the food, service and atmosphere has continued to be outstanding.<br/ With my first ever Valentine 's Day dinner which I booked while overseas, we sat down to a Chef 's 7 Course dinner with wine that complemented the food.<br/ A dinner like this is a true culinary experience and with each course, you are given a lovely explanation of what you 're eating and the wine they 've chosen to match. <br/ To start with we had trout and cauliflower tart, row, dill, seaweed, viola two bites of beautifully blended flavours that along with the Junmai Ginjo wine set the benchmark for the night.<br/ Course No. 2 was charred scallo...

Hmmm, 4 stars, probably not fair to rate as a 3. Now I am a harsh as I’ve only ever been to one place I consider 5 stars and it just so happens that Altair is remarkably similar in style with their approach to the wide variety of ingredients they use to present these fantastic meals.

Decided to pop in here to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Restaurant looked great, very elegant. We were introduced to the menu and it was interesting. Rather than the degustation, we decided to go alacarte. We had the abalone with squid ink pasta, cured salmon, barbecued carrots, forcilized pumpkin, corned lamb, duck and finished with the dark chocolate tart with burnt fig ice cream. Overall, a really good meal and well paced. Wonderful place for an occasion.

A hidden suburban gem! Food was creatively put together and well plated. Good differentiation from regular restaurants. Service was excellent. The two of us shared 6 entrees plus dessert and all dishes were very good. Worth the trip to Warrandyte!
