Service was good. The Lamb shoulder was well cooked but we preferred the flavours of it that we had on previous occasions when it was Sean's Kitchen. If you are planning to take a BYO wine, make sure you check on the cost of corkage as it varies depending on quality and age of the bottle.
Had an great dining experience at @thekitchenadl ! 🥩 The steak was absolutely perfect, the pork cutlet cooked just right, and those oysters? Super fresh! 🦪 The crab leg wasn’t as great, but the desserts totally made up for it - both the sticky date and chocolate tart were divine! 🍫🍮 Fair prices and excellent service made it a night to remember. Highly recommend! 👌
Very very average food, honestly gotten better food at a pub. Paid top dollar for a wagyu scotch fillet the was under cooked and very chewy… definitely didn’t get the cut of meat I was promised. The sides were good, average service, I had to remind them about a gin and tonic I ordered 20 minutes prior. I’m all for spending money when I go out for a nice dinner but I honestly feel like I have been robbed tonight. Need to get Sean back in the kitchen.
Had a mixed experience at this restaurant.
We were late as we had to drive 4 hours to get here, I did make a remark on the reservation and I tried calling to tell them that I might run abit late as well but nobody picked up nor returned my calls. Nevertheless, one staff member was welcoming and understanding. However, another staff member was notably rude, bluntly stating, "you know you are half an hour late so you don’t have much time" (Limited dining time). It was unclear if he was simply bad at conveying the need to rush or intentionally rude. His behavior worsened when he collected our plates, throwing the cutlery into them with a loud clank.
The food was just okay but disappointing, especially during truffle season—the linguine only tasted of cream, not truffle, though the penna cotta was good.
The ambience was also affected by the unpleasant staff member.

Amazing , they were happy to accommodate a last minute booking . We had the share plate of lamb and sides and all the food was delicious and cooked amazing. Cocktails were delicious 😋. Staff were friendly and courteous.
This establishment has altered my perception of the culinary environment. Previously, I held the belief that kitchens were characterized by chaos, haste, and verbal altercations. However, this establishment has demonstrated that kitchens can be harmonious and conducive to productivity. I had the pleasure of savoring a delectable hamburger, and I was able to observe the meticulous preparation process, which was executed with utmost care and precision.
We had a really nice dinner before a show at Dunstan playhouse (1 minute walk away).
The food was really good, the octopus was the stand out, soft and full of flavour and the char from the grill was perfect.
We both got steaks and they were cooked spot-on, even the flank!
Mac and cheese and green beans as sides, both good serving sizes and very tasty.
Overall great night, not the best steakhouse we've been to but definitely top 3 for Adelaide and would be happy to go back.
