They also serve tapas food. They also serve tapas food. We had the pan fried gnocchi with artichokes, and the buffalo mozzarella with tomatoes. Mmm! The prices are pretty reasonable as well. The cocktails are $17 - $20. The tapas is under $15. We also had a lovely conversation with the owner evi about the design of the place. I'd love to come back again on my way home from workies :) Nothing much more I can add to what Karen F had commented, both Adam & Evi are great hosts. Very attentive and explained both the cocktails and food very well and enticed us into trying them. Enjoyable evening.

I have only been here for a wine and cocktail so far but this place really adds to the quirky little shops, bakeries and cafes that are popping up on KWR! Fast and friendly service, combined with some unique concoctions and names of cocktails means you will spend most of your time there deciding which cocktail you'll get when you next return. The Elephant Espress is on my list to try next time. If you are like my other half though and think cocktail is for cordial drinkers then never fear - the wine and beer list is for quoffers and swirlers alike. These guys take their booze seriously and I am definitely signing up for one of their monthly "tasting flight masterclasses" in the future.

I've been to Sunset Bar a couple of times. The first time was when I was looking for a 21st venue…read moreand decided to see what they had to offer. Unfortunately they don't have a private function room, but they offered the back end of the bar for us, which wasn't what I was looking for but they were very helpful and accommodating to what I said I liked and wanted etc. The second time I came here was a Sunday night with a few of the girls. We decided to have a couple of quiet drinks and to splurge on a cocktail. I chose the Snickers cocktail which was delish!! It cost about $16 but it was huge. That night Sunset Bar wasn't overly busy and there were a few very drunk girls making fools of themselves (but I guess you can get this anywhere), but apart from that the location of Sunset Bar is great, it's got a large bar and plenty of seating and dance floor space. You can also sit outside on the Marina side or beach side. A perfect summer spot!

We came here for a couple of drinks and this bar is the perfect place for it. The wine list is nice with a a good amount of options by the glass and a "wine of the month". There's a good selection of craft beer and cocktails also - I had the snickers one which was amazingly delicious. We also tried some wedges which were perfect and crispy. I found the staff really helpful and friendly (although maybe it was because we were mainly served by a bearded bartender and had an equally bearded friend with us!) and they cleared our empty glasses really quickly which was good as we had limited space on our table. My only complaint was that the live music on the night was way too loud, it was much louder than the normal music playing over the speakers and forced us to yell at eachother to have a conversation.

The place is decorated in a very oldie worldly style, with grand leather sofas, ornate decoration and the grande piano. The bar sits centrally in the middle with a huge range of beverages one would expect from a cocktail lounge. If you can get by the large floor to ceiling windows looking over the bay its a great place at sunset, while listening to the piano tinkling away. The list of cocktails is extensive and some can be quite pricey....but from what i have tasted so far they are worth the extra for a treat once in a while. I have had to wait sometimes for a cocktail in busier periods but never long enough to warrant complaint. They do have tap beer/cider available too if you just want somewhere quieter than everywhere else to just relax.....! While drinking here...Julia Gillard dropped in once too....

There are 4 exclusive parts to the Jetty Bar…read more Take a step back in time to the front bar, when this drinking hole was known to locals as The St Vincent Hotel (The joys of dating a Cougar). Excluding a fresh coat of paint, updated carpet, the front bar bar is still in original form (including the regulars that drink there). Look out for the snake bite specials, going out at 10 bucks a jug. You can still catch a local rock/punk band playing on your favourite night of the week (I can't remember what night that is). A step through the corridor and past an ATM, will take you to another bar with big screen TV's and a decent coctail menu. Bi-fold glass doors open up to Moseley Square. This place is more upmarket, so leave your flannel shirt and the previous bar, and whack on your Don Travisty instead. If you're over front bar action, head to rear bistro which has the vibe and decor that reflects a Goldcoast Casino in the 90's. The schnittys are hot, and still at fair bistro prices. Finish your meal to the ambience of a water feature, and if you need time to re-coup, the pokies are just to the right. When you're ready to move on, take 5 steps to the rear car park, or continue on to "The G"

The Jetty Hotel is one of the oldest pubs in the bay. While it has undergone some cosmetic changes…read morein recent years the actual layout still remains pretty well unchanged from how it used to look when it went by the name the St Vincent Hotel. Interestingly when the pub first opened back in 1869, it was known as The Jetty Hotel so it has gone back to its original name. If you like to listen to some music while you sip your drink, The Jetty has live bands on most Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. When the bands aren't playing they have a jukebox in the front bar that's rocking from 7 each night and on Wednesdays you can get into a bit of karaoke if that's your thing. The Jetty Hotel isn't a ritzy experience. It's the kind of pub where you have a beer and put your bets on if you're in the front bar but it is a good place to watch the world go by. If you're in the market for a bite to eat, you can get a good feed either in the front bar or the Watergarden Bistro. They also have a café and a function room to accommodate close to 150 people. Should you so desire you can stay at The Jetty. It has 16 rooms and the rooms are well priced.

We understand mistakes happen but when I brought the plate back up to the bar a few employees pretended I wasn't there until the poor gal who sold it to me returned. She was very nice and apologetic but her response was "would you like another one or just a refund". In my opinion she should have compensated the whole meal considering I have been in hospital for salmonella years ago. I went back up and expressed my thoughts on her response and she said she would talk to her manager but it was never addressed until my wife was nearly done her meal and the same gal offered her a drink as if a soda or something should compensate. My wife respectfully declined and I let the gal know in advance there would be a review with aforementioned. The sad part about it all was that the manager pretended to arrange tables nearby so he could watch but didn't have the moral courage to approach our table to address the issue!!The toilets were also too dirty considering the COVID times.

The Moseley looks nice, they've done a great job decorating the place, but the food is a letdown…read more The food wasn't horrible, but it wasn't good either. The best way to describe it was "meh". First impressions were great, we were greeted out the front by a lovely lady who took us right to the elevator (as we had a pram). We went upstairs and i was impressed by the fitout, the place looks good! We ate lunch upstairs (in the more casual setting) and got a burger with chips, margherita pizza and potato skins. The burger was okay, the chips were average. The pizza tasted kind of bland (which is surprising considering their large wood pizza oven) and the crust tasted slightly burnt. The biggest letdown by far were the potato skins with cheese and bacon. After cooking the potato skins they must have been left to cool slightly and then sprinkled with cold cheese and bacon, resulting in the cheese not being melted. Apart from flavour issues it meant the cheese and bacon weren't stuck to the potato skins, so every time we picked one up all the toppings fell off and we ended up with a plain piece of potato. Not good, really not good. I ended up having to use a fork to scoop up all the cold cheese and bacon out of the bowl, it was messy and awkward. The upstairs is self-serve. You order and pay at the bar and are given a buzzer, then you have to collect the food at the kitchen. The cutlery and napkins also have to be collected from the kitchen, we couldnt find plates anywhere so it made sharing our meals hard. There was also a mix-up with our meals and the buzzer, but as they are still new we considered that teething problems. I was so disappointed, as I was hoping for something better. The balcony is great and it would be awesome for a lazy drink on a warm summer's day. But the food needs to be drastically improved! On a plus the staff seemed quite friendly. Here's hoping they fix the food issues!

Firstly, this place looks great, and is in the perfect position if you're out and about in glenelg…read moreand looking for a bite or drink. So after making a reservation for 6pm and then calling a couple of hours later to only get the answering machine, I left a message to say we would be 30 mins. later, and wanted to change the reservation to 6.30. Of course when I arrived I see they crossed out the reservation and marked it a No Show. We were seated but a note to management to make sure you check your messages. Onto the evening. The girl serving was friendly and seated us with menus. As with most Adelaide restaurants this is now where it gets frustrating when comparing it to the US restaurants we frequent. We didn't see the girl again for another 10 minutes which is when she asked us if we wanted water for the table. She then disappeared for another 10mins or so until revisiting to ask us for drinks at which time I suggested we order drinks and all food to move things along. I also asked if they would provide bread for the table which she said they would. It took another 5-10mins to get the drinks and then another few minutes to get the bread, of which there were 8 small slices, for the 9 people on the table. I then got her to come back and requested more bread which of course took another 5-10mins. Guessing by now you get the picture and problems with service. A note to the management who I'm sure are probably going to dismiss and ignore this, but after working and frequenting many hotels and restaurants throughout the world, I would suggest have your bread ready, have your water ready. When you seat people, ask them immediately which water they would like, and immediately have another staff member put some bread on the table. It not only gives the customer something to nibble and drink while waiting, but will give you some time to go and serve the other tables or for the staff to go and chat in the corner amongst themselves which seems to be a favorite past time of the overpaid hospitality staff in Adelaide. Now to the food. We sat downstairs as they were booked out upstairs. They have an upstairs more casual menu and a downstairs, fancier menu. They would not allow you to look at and order items off of the upstairs menu downstairs, they say because the 2 kitchens are separate. This makes a little sense, but, firstly if you have a group of people in your restaurant and you have a couple of people preferring to order something off of the other menu, let them. Get the staff to go upstairs, request the meal and bring it down. You are in the service industry. Serve your customer. You are much better having a happy customer who feels you have gone beyond to make sure they've had a great night. Word of mouth is key to your business survival. Food wise, the squid entree was tasty, the ceviche was ok but fish is overpowered by the fruitiness of the sauces and while the plate is colorful, the fish looks more like it's been ravaged and torn apart by the local sharks before placed on the plate. Others said the soufflé was just ok. For mains I had the 14 hr lamb, which again wasn't bad, a little flavorless. I would suggest they bake in more of a sauce or pressure cook it with vegetables etc to infuse some flavor, as once you cut into the chunk of lamb it gets quite plain and stringy. Other family members had the skirt steak which looked ok but was very inconsistently cooked with pieces ranging from medium-well to rare. They were all described as being medium. Also when preparing skirt steak, the meat should be tenderized with a rub, ala the Mexican carne asada, and well rested after cooking, and generally served sliced across the grain, so it does not come out chewy. Another member had the seafood sausage roll which was quite good, but again a little bland. I would like to see an interesting spicy sauce on the side to go with it. We ordered all of the sides available, as you don't get much on the side of your dishes, and they were probably the tastiest things of the night while being quite small for the $8.50 each. White sangria was great although overpriced and the wine and beer list is good. Again nice setting, average food and service overall. We had a much nicer, tastier, and cheaper dining experience across the square at the Italian Restaurant without the $50 per head price tag.
