Take it slow… Have a drink to start. Enjoy a cocktail, local wine or craft beer, Share a snack or two in our dedicated Bar.
Smell the delicious smokiness of Bendigo’s only dedicated steakhouse & grill, where we use local redgum on the grill; there’s nothing quite like the flavour of meat cooked over redgum. The natural smoky flavours and aromas created by this unique timber are something truly special. In the finest tradition of steakhouses, we use locally sourced meat and the very best in fresh, regional produce.

Showcasing 350 wines, including 28 by the glass, including some seriously interesting wines curated by our inhouse Sommelier. With local wines taking pride of place, including some intriguing European offerings, plus a supporting cast of spirits, beers and other beverages, including a decent alcohol-free selection. Cocktail drinkers will be impressed with our seasonally curated list.

Our menu is updated seasonally and available on our website.

    We did the 3-course lunch special and it was beautiful quality and generous portions. The steak was melt in the mouth. This place never disappoints.

    Whilst on the pricey side, it's definitely worth it as it's quality food, made with quality ingredients. Service is amazing and warm ambience combined with the great food, made for a lovely date. My partner and I travelled a far distance for this award winning restaurant and it definitely hits the spot!
