To the point, the bone marrow and liver parfait entrees are banging!! They are definitely worth travelling for. The steaks were seasoned well and cooked to temperature, very enjoyable. The blue cheese sauce was spot on, however the red currant jus was quite watery and unlike other times we’ve visited Glenelg….sticky with a note of sweetness from the red currant. The waitstaff were attentive and ensured we were comfortable and well looked after. Overall, Glenelg is worthy of your time and money.

The food never disappoints - Bone Marrow and the Tartare are delicious starters. Staff are friendly and attentive. Excited to see what they do with their upcoming renovation. We will definitely be back.

Every single time I’ve dined here they have always hit the mark. Consistent is understatement. Service on point, not to much but always there. Steaks are the best on the gc hands down without being to wanky. 10/10 everytime and that’s why we will always come back! Well done again and again and again

The team always impresses! Josef’s knowledge of wines is exceptional—he’s always happy to dig around and find the perfect bottle to suit your taste. And Seb, the master chef, never misses the mark—his steaks are consistently flavorful and cooked to perfection. Great service, great food, and a truly welcoming atmosphere.
