We had a lovely meal. We came here because we wanted some good seafood before a show. The staff were attentive and we had a three course meal and made ot to our show comfortably in less than 2 hours. While everything was nice I highly recommend the prawn spring rolls. Overall it was a little pricey ($ 250 for three people for three courses and drinks) but not bad considering its Melbourne CBD and high end.

Box is definitely an amazing seafood bar which disservice to be located on the famous Collins Street in Melbourne!
The service is elegant, performant, efficient, nice and kind.
Excellent presentation of the products and good recommendation for the oysters.
They are attentive without being over bearing.
The atmosphere is classic, chic with a touch of marble.

The service is awesome and the food is perfect. I was serviced by Melanie. She was great! Didn’t miss a beat. I had the oysters and the seafood pasta. It was so good, I took another order back to the room with me. Located smack in the middle of the the renowned Collins Ave. Highly recommended.

The prawns were rubbery and tasteless and had definitely just been frozen. The cocktail sauce tasted like Mayonnaise from MacDonalds. The white bait was so soggy it was almost a liquid. My boyfriend ate that but I couldn’t bring myself to touch it. And the squid was greasy and impenetrably chewy. A shame as the restaurant is right next to the Regent Theater and could probably draw a much bigger crowd given the King Kong musical is due to open there in a couple of weeks!

The menu described scallops in the shell, served several different ways. We asked the waitperson if the scallops in the shell were fresh or frozen, and we were assured that they were fresh. However, the scallops that were served to us were dropped into reused shells and for all appearances were frozen, given the fact that there were no tendons holding them into the shells, and they certainly did not taste fresh. In addition, the salad that we ordered came complete with a beetle type bug hidden in the leaves. After pointing this out to our waitperson, we were still charged for the salad, but were then offered a free glass of wine. To top it off, I dropped my napkin on the floor, and a waitperson came by and picked it up and refolded it with a flourish and placed it on our table again.

We had dinner here just before a show at the Regent Theatre recently. We were running late so rang them to let them know (which was greatly appreciated!) and once we arrived we were shown to our table. Our waiter was attentive without being overbearing. Although one waiter kept filling our water glass when it was half empty which did get a bit annoying.
The food was excellent — fresh, flavoursome and really tasty. Unfortunately we didn’t have time for dessert, but we will be back again soon to dine again.
