- CCynthiaMelbourne •2 reviews5.0Dined on Sep 17, 2026The Osborne on Steak night was very good value. My steak was cooked perfectly and the sides were plentiful. Drinks were a bit expensive but they do have happy hour until 7.00 pm so that’s what we’ll aim for next time. Nice airy place with good service. Looking forward to trying the roof top in summer.More infoThe Osborne Rooftop & Bar$$$$• Pub• South Yarra•4.8
