We dined at Appellation several years ago and had an unforgettable experience. Unfortunately our recent visit disappointed. The 4 course degustation was tasty but the portions were meagre and we left feeling hungry. The wines were nicely paired however when the dessert wine was not the one written on the menu we were told there was ‘a typo’ on the menu. Not the service or food I’d expect from a place of this calibre. For the price of $500 for a couple you could do much better for half that elsewhere.

I’ve been to quite a few fine dining places, so comparing to where I’ve been to, this place is not very impressive. The place itself is very well renovated, and the view is pretty good but not really special comparing to the Penford Magill Estate and Mount Loft Estate. The service is amazing, which is the only highlight of the experience. However, the food is not worth the money to be honest, especially the second course, Gaeng Som, I can’t believe they just served me a small bowl of noodle in the so called lobster stock based soup with some green leaves that you can add in by yourself, nothing else! I’m sorry but if this dish is meant to be exotic, to somebody with Asian background like me, it’s too plain, not even qualified as street food in an Asian country. The food even can’t compete with Skillogelee wines or Paulett Wines in Claire Vally, which are of much better quality in terms of food, and you can enjoy similar valley view and pretty good service too.

Lovely setting and unique flavours. Wagyu beef was a highlight. Would recommend to others for that special celebration.

Two out of 7 dishes were exquisite but the others were strange and i did not enjoy them. Did not think it was worth the $$ to be honest. The view, service and vibe was amazing but the food lacking.

The service here was impeccable. The lady that served us all night was first rate. I believe her name was Haley and I gave 5 stars for service. I scored 3 for ambience because we came at night so there is no view outside. It was freezing and the place is quite minimalist so it felt a bit sterile and cold. It was “good” but not great. I understand the appeal is probably day time. On the food, there was absolutely nothing wrong with it, it was “good” but not outstanding, it wasn’t the taste sensation we had the day before somewhere else or during the week in Adelaide. , we got the wine pairing and the best bit about that was the stories told about the different wineries. We enjoyed that.
Value was a two, almost 500 and sorry it was not worth it. To be fair though I do think the standard of food has got so much better that you can get sensational meals for a lot less these days.
