DEXTER is a no rules approach to American BBQ brought to you by Adam Goldblatt, Sam and Tom Peasnell. Our meatery features the best Australian produce which is treated the right way. Chefs Tom (Pitt Cue Co, London) and Adam (Homeslice, London) pay homage to the low and slow traditions of American BBQ utilising smoking, chargrill techniques and pair this with flavours from Mexico, China, France and alike. The philosophy is a meat first approach, where a dish is formulated from the unique characteristics of the meat (or vegetable) for a truly unique meat experience.

    Dishes were great and reminded us of our long-ago trip to Bali. Very flavorful and not overly spicy (although the homemade sambal will jazz up any dish if you wish) Twice cooked ribs, aged duck and Balinese pork skewers were all standouts. Service was prompt and helpful. Prices were very reasonable. Great experience overall!

    We were a service for three people and had a nice table in the courtyard dining area. We had been there previously but had a table inside. Tables were well spaced and comfortable. Ordered Nachos as an entree between us. This was a small mistake as the serve was large and delicious. We overindulged a little. For mains we had the Trio of Tacos, Blanco Curry Chicken and the Lamb Cutlets. A wide variety was available on the menu for all tastes. The serves were again sizable. We struggle a little to finish then after the Nachos. Our service person was helpful and all food and drinks were delivered in a timely manner. The mains arriving just as we finished our Nachos. Overall the meal cost just under $150 for the food and drinks. My sister complimented the frozen margarita she had. Pleasant company, good meal.
