   The whole experience was memorable. The service was excellent and the food was unusual and well presented. Sitting under an umbrella out on the terrace looking out over the roses to acres of grapevines and the distant Yarra Ranges made me feel as if I was in Italy. Almost perfect!

   Amazing food with great views over the estate. Bookings essential. Not a huge menu to select from but what they do they do well. There was a 10 % surcharge ( I think for a Sunday ) which was a surprise - I didn't see anything on the site when I booked ( I thought it was a pre - filled tip at first). Thoroughly recommend this place

   Service was good, and food was good quality and tasty. However, the main came out first without the sides. Whilst the sides followed not long after, the potatoes were lukewarm! On another note, the bathrooms were unisex but they were clean and well presented. They appeared to take no note of our booking request for a table with a view as they placed us in a dark room inside on a really nice sunny day. Given this (and due to it being in the middle of a walkway) we asked to be moved outside and they accommodated. It is a place I would definitely go back to again.

   Hi Caroline, Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a thorough review. We have passed your feedback onto the kitchen regarding timing of food arriving. We are glad you enjoyed all the food. We had a wedding in for the evening on the day of your reservation which unfortunately left us with a limited number of tables available inside. We're happy to hear the team accommodated and moved you outside to enjoy the sun. Thank you for your support of our small family business, we hope to have you dine with us again soon!

   we decided on the shared menu which was nice , the steak needed a little bit more cooking but other than that was good

   Beautiful views of the Yarra Valley. Fabulous food which started with complimentary freshly baked Sourdough with an amazing miso butter. The restaurant is a lovely dining experience. Outside the cellar door there is seating so you can enjoy the views. Very peaceful, calm and enjoyable.
