Where is the best place to have Christmas lunch in Melbourne's CBD or inner suburbs?

I am on the lookout for the best place to eat this Christmas? Has anyone got any suggestions from past experience or somewhere they have heard of that's good? Ideally looking a traditional Christmas meal but want to hear all suggestions.
