We tried the lunch express menu and really enjoyed it. For starters, the pork belly and garlic bread are a must. The garlic bread is not the usual kind. It has cheese on top and pesto inside, which makes it super tasty and different. The pork belly was very tender with a nice sweet and savoury flavour, and there was no pork smell at all. The pickled side dish helped balance everything and didn’t feel too heavy. The salmon was good too, but honestly the pork belly and garlic bread were the highlights. I was almost full just from the starters. For mains, we ordered the Wagyu beef burger and rump steak. The burger was extremely juicy and full of flavour, but it can get a bit rich after eating half of it. We also tried the sticky cake for dessert. It wasn’t bad, but not very memorable. The crème brûlée was quite average, though it came with a cute little macaron which was a nice touch. I don’t know much about wine, so I can’t really comment on the drinks. It’s a really nice restaurant with a lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. We had a good experience and would definitely recommend it for a casual lunch or a nice meal out.

18 Jan 26 - Upon arrival the staff were warm and welcoming. We didn't have a booking and just walked in, which was ok. They made it clear that there was a $5 surcharge (Sunday and we were using an Australia's Best gift card"per person prior to walking us to our table which was fine. We were immediately ask if we would like table water or sparkling spring water and then left to decide on or order. We chose the share ribs which were a mix of pork and beef and were around $98. The waiter asked if we wanted an entree as the ribs could be around 20 mins, but we decided to wait. We also ordered two sauces on the side, creamy garlic and blue cheese, these were both nice but not required as the ribs came with a sticky BBQ type sauce. Ribs were falling off the bone tender and very nice and also came with a small bowl of battered or coated chips, which were hot, tasty and crisp. Not quite enough to fully satisfy us both so we had the sticky date pudding which was awesome and that filled us up. An entree would have done the same if you aren't a dessert person, which we normally aren't but decided for something different. Atmosphere is nice and the layout is good, with little dining knocks big enough for families and also tables to suit couples. Staff were very friendly and attentive and it was an overall positive dining experience. Sorry I didn't take a photo of the desserts, they were also presented well and not just dumped on the plate.

An absolutely outstanding dining experience at Meat & Wine Co Adelaide. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable and the atmosphere felt special without being pretentious. The food was exceptional. We started with the sourdough bread served with biltong butter, which was beautifully salty and meaty, rich and full of flavour. A perfect way to begin the meal. The pork was soft, juicy and indulgent, with braised skin that was incredibly tender. The glaze struck the perfect balance between spicy and sweet, pairing wonderfully with the fresh salad, pine nuts and a bright, zesty finish. And then the steak. Phenomenal. We ordered medium rare and it arrived cooked absolutely perfectly. The sear was dark and crisp, and the baste was rich and deeply umami, enhancing the flavour of the meat without overpowering it. We chose the 500g wagyu rump and it was truly remarkable. We paired the steak with broccolini topped with whipped ricotta and pesto, which was a fantastic accompaniment and complemented the richness of the meat beautifully. If you are looking for a unique dining experience with high quality food, this restaurant is absolutely worth it. Even with the higher price tag, the service, atmosphere and food make it excellent value. Highly recommend.

Forgive the photos, was not taking them with the idea of posting them (I was sending them to my partner). However, this was the most phenomenal dining experience I have had in a decade. The staff were incredibly friendly, skilled and welcoming. They did not bat an eyelid when my table of three turned into a table of one because I selected the wrong restaurant to my companions. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with the woven (unsure if they have a name, sorry) hangings dampening noise despite the establishment being pretty busy for a midweek lunch. The quality of the food was brilliant, rich, robust flavour profiles, the texture of the calamari - perfect crunch on the coating and melt-in-the mouth softness was superb. Against recommendation, I ordered the Monte rib-eye rare (the medium recommendation is of course made for the fat content threaded in parts), and it was well rested and perfectly cooked, with again, brilliant flavour and texturing. The African Chilli sauce was delicious, beautiful layered profile, with a warm heat the complemented the creamy mash perfectly. The Meat & Wine Co shiraz Block 888 was available by the glass, and had a smooth flavour profile, and while it lacked the body of some, it paired perfectly with the signature steak. Finally, I had two machiatos, which were excellent, and the fondant dessert, which was the perfect way to finish the meal. Kitchen and floor staff are to be commended for an impeccable dining experience, and while I am not often in the city, next time I am here, I will be returning. If your experience is as good as mine was, please make sure you leave a tip as I did, because exemplary service deserves it.
