what students are saying

🍷 Expertly Curated 🎉 Fun & Relaxed 🍣 Exquisite Pairings 👥 Engaging Community


There is something quite special about enjoying fine wine from Riedel glassware alongside beautifully prepared Japanese cuisine.

Conveniently located in Collins Place in Melbourne's CBD, Kenzan has been a favourite of locals, business executives and families for more than 40 years, earning a reputation as one of Melbourne's most respected Japanese restaurants.

Held in the intimate private Tatami room, these dinners have become a signature event. The evening features Champagne on arrival, followed by three outstanding Chardonnays, three Pinot Noirs and Sauternes, all matched with five individually plated dishes.

The combination of exceptional wines, refined Japanese cuisine and an intimate setting creates a dining experience unlike any other, offering the opportunity to discover new flavour combinations, textures and perspectives on food and wine matching.

Running out of superlatives to describe Matthew Hansen's [Fine Wine Appreciation} meticulously planned dinner/wine events. I've now been to numerous dinners at different venues with Matthew, and every single one has been superb. The quality (and rarity sometimes) of the drinks on the table never ceases to astound me. The company is scintillating, and the food brilliant. Can't wait for his next one (or two or three or ten)

Matthew has been hosting here since the mid 80s and I can see why, with am offering of delectable Japanese food (I've travelled there a half dozen times), perfectly matches wines and a calming enviromment. I enjoyed the dinner with other like minded folk (white collar professionals and charming retirees) - rendering the week a success only into Monday. Will be back again and have already enquired on booking again with view of bringing along a few clients next time through a private booking.
