Chef's Table & Fine Dining

Seven courses served across the pass from the kitchen brigade, plus three dining rooms and a late supper club for the post-casino crowd. South Australia's larder — Barossa, Adelaide Hills, Spencer Gulf — drives every menu.

The kitchen, up close

Dining built around the state's larder

Executive Chef Mara Ellison runs the kitchen like a map of South Australia: Spencer Gulf prawns, Coffin Bay oysters, Barossa pork, Adelaide Hills cheeses and foraged coastal greens. The main dining room serves an à la carte built for pre-theatre and post-gaming appetites; the chef's table — eight seats at the marble pass — serves a seven-course degustation that changes with the markets.

The wine program leans hard into the state: a 400-label list weighted to Barossa, McLaren Vale and Eden Valley, with a sommelier on floor until midnight. For late nights, the supper club runs a compressed menu of oysters, tartare and steak frites until 2 am.

In detail

An evening at the chef's table

Seating is 6:30 pm sharp — the menu unfolds across roughly three hours with the brigade plating in front of you. Expect courses like Coffin Bay oyster with finger lime, Spencer Gulf prawn toast, dry-aged Barossa duck and a Hills cheese course before dessert. Wine pairing is optional but recommended; the sommelier works the state almost exclusively.

  • Eight seats, one seating, 6:30 pm

  • Optional SA-only wine pairing
  • Dietary adaptations with 48 hours' notice

The 2 am steak frites

Ask any regular — the supper club's frites, cooked in tallow, have ended more debates than the casino floor.
