• Wine Bar • South Yarra
Booked 21 times today
At Lilac, we’ve transformed a historic warehouse into a warm, low-lit wine bar with loft-style charm and inviting character—think exposed brick, steel-framed windows, Persian rugs, and a cozy fireplace. It’s the kind of place where you can relax at plush velvet couches or gather around the back-lit bar for a drink and a bite. Our kitchen plays with wood-fire cooking, house-made charcuterie, and creative twists on nostalgic bistro favourites. From chicken-liver mousse éclairs to savoury “mince on toast,” every dish is made with seasonal, local, foraged, and fermented ingredients that speak to heart and flavour. Our beverage focus is just as thoughtfully crafted. We pour an array of biodynamic and minimal-intervention wines, alongside inventive cocktails that nod to tradition with unexpected ingredients. The aim is simple: quality, creativity, and joy in every glass.

    We had an amazing experience at this restaurant! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and perfectly set for a relaxed yet special meal. The service was attentive and friendly and the handmade pasta was absolutely delicious ! Fresh, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor in every bite. You can really taste the quality and care in every dish. It felt authentic, generous, and beautifully prepared. We’ll definitely be returning soon!!

    We were very happy with our dinner and vodka. Amazing selection of vodka and drinks in general. Can thoroughly recommend the Flu Shot! Guaranteed to cure any winter bug. The borscht was wonderful and we also sampled a few other entrees. Will definitely go again. Sure to need a top up on the Flu Shot - for medicinal purposes only of course. Thanks BV&T team.
