We have been to Adelaide several times in the last couple of years and have eaten at the Top Of The World Restaurant (in Atlantic Tower Hotel) twice. The food has been amazing, drinks a bit over priced (buy a bottle) but the view and service were exceptional. The staff were friendly and attentive and we just loved the experience.... More

The exterior and the tired interior are almost enough to make you stay downstairs, but when you enter, see the amazing view and the food- well that was exceptional. We had a bottle of Moet, a crayfish thermador and a de constructed Greek Salad with slabs of feta, large pieces of cos and amazing red onions...wow will go again as... More

We had a great feed here a couple of years ago so decided to go back and try it again. WOW! We were not dissappointed. We had a fantastic seafood platter for two which was a huge meal. It was not cheap but it was top quality seafood. I would recommend this to anyone going there. More

nice place. okay food, nothing special. a bit pricey. views were really nice. the restaurant was there before all the surrounding buildings went up so its not their fault that the views are now a bit obscured. still, you have plenty of views to keep you guessing where everything is. service was not great. we liked the lighting. the restaurant...

The view is lovely (as expected!) We went at night time and the lights of the restaurant were dimmed and it was a very lovely atmosphere. Unfortunately the toilet is one level down so you have to get the lift down and back again which is quite time consuming as there is only one lift for the restaurant/hotel. The food... More

This restaurant is run down, grubby and old fashioned. The views are great but the windows are filthy as was the carpet. The food was passable but expensive. The wine list was mediocre as was the service. More

I wish to make it very clear that I had a meal at the restaurant in this motel and did not stay in it. We read reviews about the Top of the World Revolving Restaurant on various websites and thought it might be worth visiting. This place is HORRIBLE. Located on one of the uppermost levels of a motel, we... More

A huge disappointment. The view of the sunset over the ocean is blocked by other buildings. Once the sun had gone down, they left the lights on very low and it was too dark to see our food. Management refused to turn the lights up until they received several other complaints. We had to ask for forks four separate times... More
