Incredible menu by one of Melbourne's best chefs, Dan Sawansak. Gorgeous ambience, great staff! Definitely a favourite.
Love everything about Dessous. I couldn’t be happier with the whole dining experience.
Excellent value for money! The food was delicious and the service was attentive. Would recommend!
Amazing gem in Melbourne! Check them out!! We had a set menu and everything on it was to die for!! I especially loved the pork belly katsu sandwich
Staff are super attentive, I forgot to request a vegetarian meal and they whipped me up the most delicious main course
Wine and cocktails were amazing.
If you want great service in a gorgeous setting go here.
Desouss is an outstanding, hidden Melbourne gem. Go there for the cocktail / drink vibe and then let yourself be surprised by the terrific food.
We had a great night at Dessous. Food and drinks were amazing, set menu was the perfect amount and the time between courses was enough that you weren’t rushed. Everyone was friendly — we’ll definitely be back!
Amazing food and service. Stay were super friendly, and took plenty of time to explain the menu, including where the food was sourced from.
The set menu was really well priced. I will be back again for sure.
Beautiful space, lovely friendly service, excellent food and drinks. The perfect way to break lockdown. Thank you
They dealt with all the regulations very well. It was our first dining experience after covid and I felt very safe. The food was lovely and they paced everything very well. Really lovely experience overall!
Lovely quiet evening at Dessous with beautiful food and great service. Could have stayed longer!

Absolute great experience. Had a birthday celebration and the chef made little surprise dessert. It was a lovely night!
Definitely would go back again!
A great night out after iso
Thanks to the team. All class
A secret hideaway now discovered, the Mulberry group are on it ✔️✔️✔️
Dessous is a quirky subterranean bar with great food and an interesting wine list. Seating was roomy and the service was slick. Short food menu is done very well and does not dissapoint. Wine prices by the glass are at the upper price end. Definitely work visiting again.
Awesome bar to watch the world go by. Great food and drinks list 👌🏼
Gorgeous and romantically-lit. Snacks that are degustation-menu quality but with an elegant diner quality too (really fun ordering a few and chatting about flavours and how fresh the bread is...for the pork sandwiches they make it upstairs at Hazel!)
Visited Dessous for after work drinks. We had a few issues finding the door, but once inside we were blown away by the moody & intimate decor. Great for a date night. The food and drinks were absolutely delicious and well priced. Staff were lovely and enthusiastic. This will become an after work local for myself and friends.
Excellent and friendly service, delicious food and unique cocktails and a great wine list!
Thanks for the complimentary dessert, had the best birthday ever !

I love the ambience but choice of food was limited especially for vegetarian.
Great bar hidden underground at the top of Hosier Lane. My 2 international friends thoroughly enjoyed the night and were welcomed by Nathan and his team warmly. The decor is dark and eclectic, with a great choice in wine and cocktails. The popcorn was delicious too! Will definitely be returning to this gem.
How cool is this place. The drinks, food, service and atmosphere were all amazing. Definitely going back.
Prices were too high to consider coming often. Food was not suitable for before dinner drinks and nibbles. Staff particularly attentive and fun.
