Anise

The Melbourne Building in the central business district with its columned portico and art deco influence is fast becoming Canberra’s dining hotspot. Anise is a smart and beguiling dining choice made all the more attractive by its fantastic wine under the precise control and direction of part owner and sommelier Justine Kavanagh. The warm and inviting space is all muted browns and sensual lighting. The contemporary menu makes the best of locally sourced produce and ingredients to serve well-rounded and satisfying dishes.
