Champagne | Sparkling Gala Melbourne October 16th 2025 6.30pm

Tucked behind the grand columns of a heritage building in Prahran, Entrecôte is where Melbourne plays dress-up in Parisian chic — and pulls it off with flair. Step inside and you're greeted by brass, velvet, and that unmistakable hum of civilised indulgence. Chandeliers glint, champagne flutes clink, and there’s always a table whispering with lovers, deal-makers, or locals who just wanted to feel French for a night.

The menu? Classic, unapologetic, and built around its namesake: steak frites — that glorious marriage of perfectly seared Cape Grim sirloin, bathed in secret herb butter sauce, and a never-ending pile of golden fries. But don’t stop there. Start with oysters or escargots if you're playing it traditional; or a tartare and a martini if you're feeling like a Parisian villain. The wine list leans French, naturally, with a few Aussie gems snuck in for balance.

People don’t just go to Entrecôte to eat. They go to flirt. To celebrate. To linger over dessert and digestifs as the night wraps them in candlelight. It’s not a restaurant. It’s a mood.
