We went as a group of 6 for a 40th Birthday Celebration. The views of the river are fantastic and worthwhile for the extra cost of the food. My husband and I shared some Bruschetta for entrée, which was lovely. For my main course I had the salmon, which was cooked to perfection. The skin was so crispy whilst the flesh was lovely and moist. My husband had the beef cheek for his main course and said it was very tender. We would definitely dine here again on a special occasion.

went here last week while vising family and really enjoyed myself. we were lucky enough to get a seat by the window where you had a lovely view of the river. food was great and very well priced considering the location. staff were very nice and helpful also.

This is a very tough review. If I were to review it on my meal only then it would be one star in each category. So here goes, we went for my birthday and I ordered the special, a $40 steak. I was expecting the best steak I'd ever had. What I got tasted exactly like a Hungry Jacks burger. I was so disappointed. That said, my wife got the crab linguine and that was absolutely devine. However, I was furious that I was expected to pay that much for a steak that I wouldn't feed to my dog.

Absolutely one of the top restaurants I've been to. Breathtaking view, excellent quality freshly cooked tastey food, and best customer service. The staff were friendly from the moment we walked into the restaurant and offered a seat with great scenery. The dessert was delicious, particularly the authentic tiramisu -soft and spongy but not too damp, also with strong rum aroma. The Italian pasta was authentic and serving size was huge. Definitely will come here again but only for special occasions because it is very pricey!!

What can I say View, food this resturant is on the ground floor of this complex upstairs is Red Ochre Grill. We sat out on the balcony just sensational. I had the Crab Linguine this is the best of have ever had in Adelaide. Dessert was to die for perfect panacotta. Will be back again and will try lunch.

Approximate cost: $28

Overall, the place is nice and the food is tasty. The only downside during my visit was the large number of spiders I saw inside and outside of the cafe. One of them even found its way into my bag and went home with me. If it weren't for the spiders which I am so afraid of, I would probably visit again.

One of the best dining experiences I've had. The food is unique, well-prepared and presented. Great service, beautiful view of the city at night and a stylish place to eat.

It's not as classy as The Red Ochre upstairs, but then it's not as expensive. Still, this place oozes class and provides where it needs!
It's 'classified' as a cafe, but it's more of a full on restaurant. I guess this is the case because they have the 'official' fine dining restaurant upstairs.

Approximate cost: $mod
