The food program is the strongest single reason to stay at this address — a claim we don't make about casino hotels lightly.

The dining room

À la carte or seven-course degustation ($185, pairing +$120). The menu follows the market — Spencer Gulf prawns, Hills truffle in season, Limestone Coast beef. River-facing tables from 18:00; non-residents welcome.

The chef's table

Eight seats inside the kitchen, twelve courses, narrated by the brigade — $285 with deposit. Two evenings weekly; four weeks out is realistic. Full details on the dining page.

The private room

A closed room for fourteen — its own menu, sommelier and pacing. Quoted per event; ideal for board dinners that deserve better than a hotel function room.

Order this

  • The current market fish, whatever the sauce
  • The cellar pairing on the degustation — the sommelier's list is the quiet star
  • In-suite breakfast: the only room-service breakfast in the city that arrives hot

Verdict: the degustation is worth it; the chef's table is worth the wait; and the late menu after the casino floor is the city's best-kept midnight secret.
