MAZE

8 Whiteman St, Level 1 Crown Metropol (03) 9292 6268 Score: 32/40 If Maze wasn’t billed as a ‘Gordon Ramsey Restaurant’, I probably would have been there sooner.

Gingerboy

27-29 Crossley St, Melbourne, 3000. (03) 9662 4200 Score: 30/40. Does Gingerboy live up to the hype? Not quite, but almost. It impressed me enough to make a return visit.

Verge

1 Flinders Lane, Melbourne, 3000. (03) 9639 9500 Score: 26/40 After a disappointing express lunch at Verge I came back for another go and the food and atmosphere were much improved. Shame about the service, but I’m willing to revisit to see if they can make it two out of three.
