Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

d'Vine Wine Tour's Lunch Stop

Oct 2024 • couples

We had a fabulous time at Mandoon Estate as part of d'Vine Wine Tours' experience. The wine tasting area was nice airconditioned, plenty of room to enjoy the beverages and peruse the gift shop at the same time. The wines were fun to try and though the hostess was very informative, she didn't give off a particularly welcoming or pleasing vibe. It seemed a little rushed and money hungry as compared to other companies. We moved onto the restaurant area to enjoy a delicious lunch which was superb. The Meatlovers Pizza I ordered was amazing, delicious and huge size to soak up all the wine I had had by this time. I also loved how the waitress was able to light a little candle our tour guide Ron found for us so that my fiancé and I could complete our Adventure Challenge we had set for the day. I really, really enjoyed that part and look forward to having the time to take a stroll in the art gallery section of the venue.

Exceptional experience at Mandoon.

Sept 2024 • friends

We were a large table celebrating a birthday. Elegant dining area, we had a table well away from others. Explanation of wine choices was very good. Food was interesting, innovative and thoroughly delicious. The menu was explained well by waitstaff. Waitstaff were the cream on the top, attentive but not intrusive . This was a table of reasonably 'picky' guests who all agreed it was an exceptional lunch...it was Sunday, the whole place was packed so well done to your restaurant team. 5 *****

Gorgeous place for a summer dress, a glass of wine and some live music

Mar 2023 • couples

A lovely afternoon listening to live music in the sunshine. Pizzas can be ordered from the garden bar area, and the bar itself is a few steps away, serving a range of spirits, wines and beer. Highly recommended.

Function centre at restaurant prices.

Dec 2023 • family

The complex is great with choices of dining location and on the Saturday lunch time was very busy. We were sat promptly and had a choice of table code or bar order, but due to slow internet we chose bar order. Drinks were premix type cocktails (sad) or selection of beer or estate wine. Food arrived suspiciously fast and all at once, starters/small plate choices and larger mains. In general all was plated well but most missed the mark on taste, temperature or doneness. Their special brisket though chosen at beginning of lunch service was dry and overdone. Fish ok but chips overcooked and all dry and crunchy, pork ribs tender but tasteless and over cooked. The only dishes we had that passed was the onion rings and the lamb chops. Granted they were busy with bookings but the meals seemed to be function centre quality -pre plated and sent out rather than prepared to order

Dont bother

Mar 2024 • friends

We had an interstate visitor last Wednesday and ate at the Homestead Brewery. Extremely disappointed and embarrassed to take an interstate visitor there. The menu was sadly deficient with the only steak on there a Wagyu rump. This came with some mash and indescribable green vegetable. We wanted chips and salad with the steak. We also ordered an entrée and asked for them to come some time apart to allow us to eat our entrée. All the meals came together entrée and main. The steak still had the sloppy mash and greens with it and the chips and salad came separately. The steak was probably one of the most tasteless steaks I have ever eaten. It was cooked with no seasoning or salt and was very bland. Very disappointing and unlikely to ever return. Thought you should have the feedback.

Waited for Restaurant to open and then told NO TABLE

Oct 2023 • couples

This is my first ever NEGATIVE review on Trip Advisor. We arrived at Mandoon at 10am and was told the kitchen just shut for breakfast and would reopen at 11am. We (four of us) said we would enjoy a coffee and then eat. The restaurant was about 20% full and so we did that and then went to order food at 11:15am only to be told we could now not eat as the table was booked. Unbelievable!!!!! The restaurant was still 20% full if that and thee was no way there was a booking before 12 on that table. The worst communication on the planet and No care whatsoever. We are now at The Guildford enjoying great service and awesome food and guess what, they even know how to communicate. Look at the sign in the table. How easy. Maybe the IDIOTS at Mandoon can use their brains and do this.

complete disappointment and waste of money

Sept 2024 • friends

No table service to take your order, have to use the app on phone so no discussing food.No table water offered at all. Five meals that were ordered were well below Mandoons quality of past so can only suggest new owners or apprentice cooks, with three meals that turned up and another two were twenty minutes after and were cold. We had fish this was one of the late ones, a chicken salad with chicken being hard and smothered in mayo (unedible) pity I did not take photos At no stage did anyone enquire about how the meals were and two hours after we were finished the dirty plates were still sitting on the table and we had to ask them to be taken away in fact most of the tables around us were the same. I don't know who was in charge on the day Saturday the 7th but please either do your job or seek other emplyment because this was a complete let down. I have in the past recommended this establishment but in all honesty would not do again based on what we were offerd today.

They have stopped trying

July 2024 • family

Something has really gone off here. In the last 13yrs we have enjoyed going to Mandoon…. Our go to , being in Perthills, but food & service has become non existent here. Staff have been replaced by the QR scan, they no longer acknowledge your presence, check on you or the patriotic Thank you as you leave- embarrassing. The servings have been halved , but not the price 😊The menu looks like it’s been revamped, but it’s the items which have been moved around. The lobster that had been there for years finally went 🙆‍♀️.We reckon we would get a better atmosphere & experience walking down to the local tarven. C’mon Mandoon , we have seen you at your best , reel us back in.

Bad management

July 2023 • family

Visited Mandoon Winery on Saturday and was thoroughly disappointed, found out the hard way that not all the ingredients in the burger are not listed on the menu. I ordered the Wagu Burger and stated that I needed the burger to be gluten and dairy free due to allergies but I also have an allergy to onions and this ingredient wasn't listed on the menu as being included. When I received the burger it had slices of red onion in it and I had already taken a few bites before realising and I panicked and took it back, Comalida (not sure of the spelling as the staff told me her name) the manager came out and stated that it was my fault and that I need to take responsibility for my allergies and was extremely rude regarding the matter and I was left feeling humiliated, deflated and in tears. When we asked her name she became very agitated and yelled at my Dad and stormed off and I never received an apology and I'm now extremely unwell. We were visiting for my grandparents 50th Wedding Anniversary and I unfortunately had to spend most of the time in the toilet instead of spending time with my family. Mandoon Winery health and safety measures are not up to standard and I'm now paying the price. ALL allergies should be taken seriously regardless of what it is. We received a refund but no remorse was shown and no apology all they did was blame me.

May 2022 • none

My partner booked the Homestead Brewery at Mandoon for a Birthday celebration but the food standard was anything but great. The entrees of Burrata Heirloom Tomatoes and olives were ok but the Wagyu Rump Steaks were very much poor quality beef, the accompaniment of Broccolini had way too much garlic and although advertised as New Potatoes they certainly were nothing like what they should have been. The Affogato’s were the highlight of the meal. For the prices they charge this should have been so much better and very disappointing for a Birthday celebration. Staff were attentive at first but then very absent towards the end of the meal so I had to approach to place an order for dessert.

Beautiful estate

Jan 2023 • family

Definitely worth a visit. We came here after going to the nearby wildlife park. The grounds are vast and really beautiful. We only had a snack in the restaurant which we ordered through the app and sampled the rose wine which was delicious. We purchased a bottle from the shop before leaving, price was really good and a large range to select from.

Large, busy estate

Feb 2023 • friends

We called into this extensive estate for some wine tasting. As well as the tasting room, you'll find a restaurant, conference facilities, a shop, and accommodation. The staff were pleasant and helpful with the tastings but they were rushed off their feet with so many visitors. I must confess that I prefer a small, more intimate setting for my tastings.

Lovely scenery average food

July 2022 • friends

We ate here as part of our Swan Valley day tour. There was nothing special about the food or service and it felt like a big barn. Not sure if I would go back as similarly the cellar door service was impersonal.

Sometimes it pays to upgrade

July 2021 • none

We decided to stay at The Colony, Mandoon as part of the WA government staycation promotion. We upgraded to a 'Superior' room as we were there for two nights. The upstairs room consisted of an outdoor balcony with a lovely view onto the Swan river, large comfortable bed and ensuite. All very clean and well presented. We had robes and slippers which is part of the upgrade. The accommodation is situated amongst the grape vines which was really nice. Parking was right outside the door. Room service was fast and good, pizza was excellent and only a couple of dollars more than at the brewery One thing I really appreciated was that the wines in the mini bar were exactly the same as at the cellar door, such a nice change to the normal exorbitant charges. We enjoyed breakfast on both days at the brewery restaurant, servings were flavoursome and generous and the serving staff very helpful and cheerful. Can certainly recommend the cellar tasting, there is a charge but that is negated if you buy wine. Being in the heart of the Swan Valley it is really easy to get out and about to the local attractions.

Disappointing lunch at Homestead

Dec 2022 • none

Ordered the pan-fried gnocchi but it was not at all what I expected. A square slab of what looked like a pasta bake in a round bowl arrived, it was tasteless, dry and found nothing appetizing about it. Husband made mention of the chips on his order of cheeseburger to the waitress as being "ordinary" and the reply he got was "they're gluten free". Service was pretty ordinary, staff hovering over the table after we had finished making us feel uncomfortable. Got the feeling we were on a strict time limit there. Perhaps inform guests of time limits so they are aware. Will be a long while before we're back. Things need to improve tenfold.
