great restaurant with well presented meals. The menu is very "gourmet" and may not be to everyones taste. However the food is wonderful. More

If there was one restaurant in Adelaide deserving of a Michelin star this would be it! The degustation menu is superb, lots of little twists to the tale. The smoked fish with truffle was sensational and the barbecued kangaroo (served in a smoky wine glass and with beer) so imaginative. Being Penfold's you must of course match your menu with... More

It was probably the best dinner we had in Australia. The multi-course dinner was in a beautiful setting overlooking Adelaide and the valley with their best wines available for pairing or by the glass. Our evening included a private tour of the cellars with their history. Unfortunately the restaurant is now closed for renovation (certainly didn't look like it needed... More

This restaurant is billed as the best in Adelaide and it feels as if they are trying for Michelin status but missing by a mile. Our problems came from the outset when we were told by the staff that the members of our group we were not allowed different menus from the selection (the couple at the next table were... More

I was lucky to attend a long lunch so it gave me time to observe the whole experience from the venue itself, the view- oh the view, the wine match with food, the exquisite Grange drops & last but not least the cheese platter which again, came with matching drops. When can I return again???? Briliant !!!!! More

Like many others, we went to Penfolds Magill Estate for our anniversary, being a special occasion, we opted for the full $375 degustation menu with matching wines (including a 1997 Grange) . We were seeking a sublime experience - unfortunately (as such) we only got 'very good'... The restaurant itself sits above the vines at the Magill estate with lovely... More

Had the degustation with matching premium wine. Overall a pleasant experience. The venue has a tiny capacity which is a good thing. Service acceptable without being exceptional. Tiny portions of well presented food. Unfortunately we weren't 'blown away', as we were expecting to be. If you're flush with dollars, by all means, but we won't be back. More
