The Restaurant

There is simply not enough adjectives in the English language to describe the food and atmosphere of dining outback@steel-worx

The restaurant is set in a separate room from the bar, far from the madding crowd, as it were, and is smoke free. Light jazz and contemporary music drifts through the sound system, the fire place, again surrounded by steel-worx icons, radiates out gentle heat, setting the scene for what has quickly become one of Methven’s most popular fine dining restaurants.

Chef Tony prides himself on the quality of the food. The menu he has designed is the perfect combination of fresh local produce and international influence.

Reservations are advised so please either call us on 03 302 9900 or fax us on 03 302 9912.
