European, Seafood waterfront restaurant & BAR.
Fresh caught fish, modern, fine dining and casual.
Making its home in the picturesque little fishing village of Port Albert, 'Wildfish' is South Gippsland's premier waterfront restaurant. With a simple philosophy of producing the freshest local seafood caught by local fishermen 'Wildfish' is much welcomed in the food and wine circles of Gippsland. Occupying the site of the old fishermen's co-op, diners are likely to see the fresh seafood on the menu being unloaded from the fishing boats on the wharf at the front of the restaurant.
Owner Michael Hobson, himself a fifth generation fisherman knows his seafood and employs a full time fish monger so every step from the boat to the plate is controlled within the 'Wildfish' philosophy. Michael whose family have lived in Port Albert since 1846 gave away fishing and pursued a career in the international super yachting industry, working for identities such as Sir Richard Branson and Billy Connelly before returning to Port Albert to see his seafood vision become a reality.
Port Albert is such a special place, with rich maritime history, beautiful natural scenery and surrounded by some of the countries best National Parks. A picturesque two and a half hour drive from Melbourne and you're already relaxed. Step into Wildfish and truly unwind. You can choose from a cocktail or fantastic local wines that you can enjoy at the beautiful handcrafted bar or sink into the cosy lounge before your meal. There is nothing better on a beautiful day than dining on fresh seafood on the deck which is literally on the water.
The service is warm and friendly, the food is exceptional and the surroundings amazing.
