What Our Members Said About Our Events
I can confidently be taken off this mailing list given that I’m getting married tomorrow with someone I met at A Table for Six! It was my first dinner actually. I proposed in Rome in front of the Trevi Fountain and she said yes! Thank you for the introduction.

Osteria Renata
Prahran, Melbourne
65+YRSA neighbourhood diner inspired by Italy. Hosting friends, family and colleagues at the dinner table. This handsome restaurant and bar shares some of the same European charm that diners have come to love at their other venue (in Park St, Sth Melb). But one of the major differences is that the kitchen is significantly larger. So big, in fact, that there’s a dedicated “pasta lab”, serving as a pasta production HQ for both venues. The restaurant is named after the co-owner Alex Ghaddab’s grandmother, Renata, whose legacy of warm, friendly-faced hospitality is what the team aspires to offer.

Melbourne Dating Events FAQs
These are just some of the questions we get asked about our Melbourne singles events. Find the answers you're looking for.
Singles in Melbourne often express frustration with online dating apps, citing safety issues, fake profiles, and ghosting. If you share these concerns, you’re not alone. Many seek authentic ways to meet quality singles offline. A Table for Six offers a solution—a safe, relaxed, and enjoyable group setting where genuine individuals gather to socialise and form meaningful connections in person. Our social events cater to various age groups, whether you’re over 30, 40, or 50, ensuring you meet like-minded individuals in your cohort.
Our members are all singles who are seeking to meet others in an environment where there’s no pressure and it’s about having fun and making new connections. They’re in your age group (ID verified), ready for new friendships and the opportunity to find that special someone. Most importantly they tell us that the key traits they seek in others are kindness, honesty and a sense of humour.
Once our final guest list is ready, our Events Team will send a confirmation email and a text message to let you know you’re on the guest list. This will happen mid-week before the event. If you don’t get a seat at the table, we will notify you by email 2-3 days before the event. In this case we encourage you to list for the next event that suits you.
Our commitment is for you to be able to attend at least 6 dinners or events over the course of a year. Your dinners are likely to be spread out over time (not successive Saturdays), as we rely on brand new members joining each month. We work hard to find new singles and create table combinations that give every person an equal opportunity to meet others as often as possible. If you don’t get on to a table please register for the next dinner that appeals and you’ll be prioritised.
Started in 2001, A Table for Six has been bringing together singles for over 20 years. It’s the largest, most trusted dinner dating service Australia-wide. Our mission is to provide you with fun, new opportunities to form meaningful connections with other like-minded singles. A Table For Six has introduced many thousands of singles over this time, resulting in numerous friendships, partnerships and marriages. Read reviews from our members here
