We were on the waiting list to get in on a Friday evening and were lucky to be called at 3 in the afternoon to confirm a table for two. On our arrival we were greeted by a charming gentleman and shown to our table...just in time to see the sun setting. We were informed by our young waitress that they did not produce a menu unless requested as they liked an element of surprise. We thought what the heck and ordered a bottle of Deviation Road bubbles. We were told that the meal set at $125 per hour could have an additional first course, or last course. We choose the first course and had savoury madelines with sourcream and chives and sturgeon caviar. To be honest I don't know which was our favourite... every bite was exquisite. Certainly the food pairings were completely at odds of every day food but the chef must have a very refined palate as nothing we have had compares to what sublime food we tasted. At $125 a head it is more than a fair price the only surprise being that the madelines were $30 per serve. Could not fault one thing. Congratulations to the whole teamMore

We ate 2 nights in a row to celebrate my 60th. We have eaten at some of the top restaurants around the world and rate this as one of the best. We had the degustation both nights with paired wines. Chefs, waiters and sommelier were...outstanding. Professional but friendly. The vibe of the restaurant and hotel is relaxed but first class. Bravo and thank you. We look forward to the next time.More

We had the degustation. Half the plates were excellent. Half were such awkward matchings of ingredients, I wondered if the cook had covid. There were some good whiskeys to be had, and my friends liked a couple of the wines. They agreed that they would...prefer to choose their own wines, rather than have someone else match them to the food.More

A weeks holiday exploring the Barossa Valley ended with an amazing meal experience at Appellation. Escorted to a window seat in the stylish dining room we enjoyed dinner overlooking the vineyards and watched the many colours of the night sky as the sun went down.... Service was impeccable and the multiple courses which comprised the degustation were stunning, all filled with flavours that reflected produce found in the Barossa. RecommendedMore

Incredible ambiance , top class service & decadent food. Each course was spectacular- we loved every course. Highly recommend.

We came to Appellation for a birthday treat and were not disappointed. The service, setting, and views were 10/10. The food was such a delight and we enjoyed every moment. If you’re looking for a place to sit and enjoy a wonderful culinary experience with...family or friends, look no further. Well done and thank you to the team for such a lovely evening, we will definitely be returning. Tess and all the team were also very helpful in catering for a quite unusual dietary requirement, which was very much appreciated.More

Could not fault our evening. The meal was exquisite. 8 courses of the most beautifully cooked food. Thank you
