Etica Ethical Pizzeria & Mozzarella Bar

When a pizzeria advertises they use “organic” vegetables, you know you’re going to be paying a lot. When they also say the meat they put on the pizza has been farmed using “ethical” practices, you might as well hand over your wallet. What was once a dental practice on Gilles Street, is now home to…

Yiros Plus

What would a food court be without a Yiros food outlet? At the new Rundle Place food court, Yiros Plus is the new kebab store in town.  Besides the usual Lamb and Chicken Yiros, this place also sells a variety of Turkish Pides (also known as Turkish Pizzas) and Baked Potatoes. Today, I ordered the…

Rigoni’s Bistro

Rigoni’s is Italian fine dining at it’s best. This place is really popular and the menu prices are bit higher than normal. It is only when you come here that you realise it’s actually worth paying a bit more. The decor is classical and stylish with beautiful cornices that adorn the ceilings. The atmosphere is…

National Wine Centre

Adelaide is the number one wine producing state in Australia, so it’s fitting we have a National Wine Centre. I’ve been lucky enough to come here for all sorts of reasons from functions and conferences to cocktail and wine tasting. I’m a regular here on Friday afternoons. On a Friday every fortnight, they have Uncorked…

Eros Ouzeri

Eros Ouzeri is located on the eastern end of Rundle Street. The decor is simple and elegant, however, the service here is unbelievably slow. Granted it was a busy night, it took a waitress 30 minutes to take our order. Tonight, I ordered the Souvlaki. The meal came out after a 15 minute wait but…

Botanic Bar

The Botanic Bar is such a classy establishment. The classical old style interior and the consistently wonderful ambience set this place apart from the rest. The seating is comfortable, the staff are friendly and how could you not go past the $6 pizzas! Tonight, I went for the Turkish Lamb Pizza. The pizzas are simple…

Amalfi

Amalfi is so good that you shouldn’t even bother trying to come here without a booking. The dining area is efficiently used at this place. For what could be described as cosy, they’ve tried to cram in as many tables and seats into the restaurant as possible. The atmosphere is vibrant with waiters hustling past…

Nikita’s

Nikita’s has to be one of my favourite Greek restaurants. This cosy little place holds exactly 56 people, but with 50 of us dining out, we basically had the whole restaurant to ourselves. Located on Unley Road, the restaurant offers all your traditional Greek fare. The atmosphere is relaxed and the service is excellent. Last night,…

Cafe Luna Rosso

The literal translation for Luna Rosso is Red Moon. Located on the busy cafe precinct of King William Road, Cafe Luna Rosso offers your traditional Italian fare. The decor is modern but basic, and the service is OK. On this particular occasion, I ordered the Calzone Rustico. The meal came out after a 20 minute…

Estia

I’ve been to Estia’s on numerous occasions over the years and I’ve always had an enjoyable experience. Located in Henley Square, the restaurant is metres away from the jetty. The atmosphere is relaxed and if you’re dining outdoors, you get to see the sun set over the horizon during the summer. Tonight, I ordered the…
