The food is presented beautifully which makes for great Instagram photos. However, the food is very average and not worth its price. The few entrees we ordered were nice. My slow-cooked beef cheeks were a little dry and lacking seasoning. My friend’s crumbed pork cutlets had an unpleasant taste which made it inedible. Not the most comfortable seatings unless you’re dining upstairs.
Love the new renovations of this restaurant. The upstairs dining area and function rooms are amazing. The bar is beautiful decorated. I enjoyed trying their espresso martini, Aperol spritz and limoncello spritz. The grazing table was incredible with so much delicious deli meats, cheese, bread and fruit. I also enjoyed some of the canapés. Keen to have a sit down dining experience at this venue.
My steak fritters was great, Burger was dry, pork chops was dry too. And the chocolate cake was also dry like overbake it. White tea was ok, taste like using long life milk.
The revamped Palace Hotel has a spectacular facade with newly refurbished interior to match. Friendly staff serving up pub favourites and my Steak Frites was cooked to perfection. Steak night Mondays and engaging Trivia on Wednesdays amongst others.
I went on an adventure to the historic and newly refurbished Palace Hotel in Camberwell and it absolutely did not disappoint. Downstairs is spacious, with fireplace and big TV, but upstairs is where the magic is. Literally a level up, it’s beautiful function space and bar area adorned with historic photos highlighting the history of the building and the people who ran it, particularly paying homage to the women in hospitality. Of note is one of the many architectural choices that paid off.. seeing into the bell tower! If you want standard pub grub - these guys do it well. But if you want an unexpected, exceptional culinary experience then you need the small plates menu. I can not express how much of a delight it was eating my way through this menu. Crafted by state executive chef Tony Moss it incorporates First Nation flavours, exceptional produce, and suppliers in a unique connected way. The little buratta is had made by That’s Amore and is adorned with stewed Davidson plum and fennel with house made lavosh. The crispy halloumi is texturally delightful and served with a Tasmanian pepper-berry honey and kaffir lime. The lamb ribs are cooked to perfection and complimented with a coffee and wattle-seed glaze. Wagyu skewers were so tender with brilliant complex flavours of black garlic and saltbush. I opted for the endive salad, which was a good call, the whole shaved apples, radish, and herbs with a zesty vinegarette dressing was perfectly balanced. And, the chips. Clean oil, skin on with solo that deserves its own shout out. On top of all this, the service is genuine, with every team member so proud to share the history of the venue.
