Kisumé Melbourne Reviews from The Last Year
Disappointment Regarding Reservation Cancellation
Dear Kisume Management, We are writing to express our disappointment with the recent experience we had with your restaurant. We had made a reservation one month in advance, and within a week of the reservation date, we were suddenly informed that our booking was canceled. It appears that a more profitable function took precedence over our reservation. Such treatment feels like a double standard and is highly unprofessional. We understand that events and functions can be significant for business, but it should not come at the cost of disregarding prior commitments to other customers. We had been looking forward to dining at Kisume, and this experience has left us feeling undervalued as customers. We hope you can understand our frustration and take steps to ensure that other customers do not face similar issues in the future. Good luck with your business, but please remember that customer trust and satisfaction are paramount.
A lovely experience
This is a very nice restaurant. Beautiful food, surroundings and service and a nice wine list as well. The lunch special is lovely and quite good value for the quality. We left very happy with the experience
Lovely
We stopped in (without a reservation) for a light dinner. We were seated at the counter across from the chefs. It was fun to watch these artisans at work. We had sashimi, octopus, and spicy tuna rolls. All were delicious, but the octopus was especially notable. We also had the saki flight. Loved two of the sakis. The third, a sweeter dessert wine, was ok but not a favorite. Overall a wonderful experience.
Good food, strange wait staff.
Great food. However something about the service may keep me from coming again. Too over the top, try hard, manipulative, over sharing and bordering on rude. We didn’t want the crappy French Chablis but it was easier to say yes than put up with the wait staff pantomime. Tone it down, people are coming for the food not the waiters.
Food lacking salt and quality but very salty bill.
The food was good but not to the point of justifying the price. Service and venue were perfect but the food was not worth 135 pp for a sushi/sashimi bento. Sashimi was ok but I had a few nerves not usually found in the best part of the fish fillet: chewy sashimi is a big no no. The sashimi sauce was good but lacking salt and umami: if you want to add that layer of salt, you mess up the sauce by dipping the sashimi into soy sauce. Cornelian choice… Some maki were outstanding (the meat one) but the one with “caviar”, I’m sorry but the caviar was more bland than my $5 a jar flying fish roe from China… Comments seem hard but again, when you charge $135 for 6 pieces of sashimi and 6 pieces of maki, you expect much more than that.
Fantastic but overpriced
We did the Chefs Table. It is a wonderful experience to be present for the skill displayed in front of your eyes. The food is superb and this is art to watch being made. Only issues is the hallway to all the rooms is looking tired and worn and the cost for 3 people of near $900 is hard to justify. 10/10 for the quality of this culinary experience.
Major Fail
Extremely overpriced, and the food is just average. Servings are tiny. The tempura king prawns and the hiramasa kingfish both tasted overwhelmingly of sugar. I couldn't taste any yuzu in the yuzu tuna bites. I've had much better Japanese food elsewhere, for less than half the price. Go somewhere else.
Sneaky Tricky restaurant
Still water cost $12 per head ???? I went with my family (4 adult ,2 kids)together for a dinner. When we just sat down, the server asked “sparking or still?” On spot and i said “still is fine” before open the menu. Then She filled our glass halfway through with a glass bottle of water .I didn’t think anything of it until my $600 bill included $72 worth of “still” water (x6 half glass of water @$12). I was figured still meant regular water, but they charged us for this without saying those are chargeable / they didn’t leave the bottle of still water to us at all and no refill …..Finally I still paid the bill but the whole principle of it seems super shady to me. Is this normal? Warranted by the server?
Hit and miss
Exceptional prices for some really nice dishes, but also some really average ones. Service overall was also poor. Topped it off asking for a tip for said poor service after paying $650 for a service for two.
Don’t bother
Went here on New Year’s Eve expecting a nice experience. Going on reviews for good quality food in an impressive environment. Unfortunately the service was terrible - inattentive staff, delays between courses, creative calculation of our bill. We were sorry we went.

Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!

As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.

Last Reply by 👻 @EnjoyableJelly34 (11/14/2022 11:34 am)5 Thumbs Up2 Replys, 0 commentsWhose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!

Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??

Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Best answer by 👻 @HandsomeCollar14 (06/29/2022 10:31 am)4 Thumbs Up6 Answers, 3 commentsWorking on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.

Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Best answer by 🥷🏻 @ColorfulRod45 (09/18/2021 12:07 am)3 Thumbs Up1 Answer, 2 commentsWhere do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
Best answer by 🦩 @FluffyStar64 (07/13/2021 8:05 pm)3 Thumbs Up12 Answers, 2 commentsWhat happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
