MEET MELBOURNE'S NEWEST DINING DESTINATIONS

n

Lucas Collective is launching 2 new restaurants this Spring - Noẽma and Wishbone.

n

Noẽma brings contemporary Mediterranean dining with a modern Greek twist, bold flavours, exceptional produce and Josper-grilled cooking.

n

Wishbone brings the buzz of Hong Kong-inspired casual dining, with big flavours, quality ingredients and a seriously good atmosphere.

n

Two completely different concepts. Two brand-new teams. One chance to get in from day one and help bring them to life.

n

Home to some of Australia's most iconic and acclaimed restaurants, Lucas Collective is one of the country's leading hospitality groups, with a collection including Chin Chin, Kisumé, Hawker Hall, Maison Bâtard, Baby Pizza, Yakimono, Society, Grill Americano and Tombo Den.

n

For more than 30 years, Lucas Collective has played a significant role in shaping Australia's hospitality landscape, developing restaurants that challenge convention, establish new benchmarks and become destinations in their own right. Our venues have earned top Australian hospitality awards, including Maison Bâtard being named Australia's Best New Restaurant in 2025, along with international recognition for excellence in food, wine and hospitality.
