    We had the 7 course degustation with paired local wines. What and amazing experience. The best Adelaide has to offer, and nationwide. The staff were fantastic genuine authentic people who made us feel special and added a surprisingly lovely dimension to the food and wine experience. We will remember this night for a long long time. Thank you, Kieren, Dorota and Julia

    Obviously this is meant to be cooking at a very high level, so we're judging accordingly. Generally there was a lack of seasoning (salt). The dishes featuring a crispy base weren't easy or especially pleasant to eat and at least one of them would have been better with a buttery pastry base. The rhubarb didn't taste of rhubarb. The sommelier was excellent and his wine selection first rate.
