The Melbourne outpost of Neil Perry’s empire offers his signature seafood raw bar complete with caviar, but the star is the dry-aged beef. The masculine space is simple and stylish, as is the menu. For the experience without the price tag, eat at the bar, which offers a more affordable menu, including one of the city's best burgers ($28).
