Mietta's Review
As the name suggests the restaurant is in the verandah that surrounds the tasting room and, weather permitting, outside. The views of the vines and behind them this section of the Adelaide Hills are lovely. In the winter a log fire keeps the room, behind its plastic screens, cosy. The food is Italian, the welcome warm, serves are large, the prices reasonable and the wines first class.
