There are other plenty of steak options, in fact the whole menu is full of steak, which I understand. Hmmm...there's a lot of...bony ribs...Well, that's how I felt munching through the beef ribs, but I wasn't surprised. I mean, it's all about steak here...and the owners are real nice...but there is something I don't particular enjoy about too much bones for lunch. It makes my beautiful thousands of dollars set of teeth uncomfortable. So why even three stars? It's the perfect lunch spot, if you love steaks! Oh yea, and they have the sweetest grape soda I've ever tasted, made and imported from South Korea (see photo)! My best friend: "How's life been treating you lately?" Me: "I need more. I need to keep looking for my answer..." My best friend: "What you need in your life is a bit of...you know what!" Me: "I got my food. But my love-life has been a bit of a dry-zone." My best friend: "You have a psychology degree, use it." The last one was especially funny, because I knew my best friend wanted to go to the pubs straight after!

The menu was good, and I was happy to choose the fillet steak, which I ate with very fresh chips and a creamy garlic sauce. The steak melted in my mouth and was a perfect medium rare, something not always achieved. My husband had a chicken schnitzel with mushroom sauce and voted it tender and delicious. The service was pleasant, and on a night with quite a crowd, we were not ignored. This a restaurant will visit again, and maybe that time I might have room for one of their delicious sounding desserts.

Located in the heart of Adelaide directly across from the Adelaide casino, it is an fantastic place for a formal gathering with friends. The balcony is located above the Strathmore hotel. You pay a little bit extra for the atmosphere, such as a formal setting and a beautiful view of the adjacent casino and festival centre. The food... Amazing stone grilled dining isn't all you get at The Balcony, you awesome receive on point service by waiting staff who are more than happy to accommodate diners. The staffs also help you with the stone grilling process, and it is vital to listen to them unless you want an overcooked well-done steak (which is a sin). I ordered the seafood collection to stone grilled, and I must say is something else. The food was well garnished and the flavours were brought out on the stone slab. My friends ordered the steaks and managed to stuff up on the stone grilling (amateurs). Overall, absolutely fantastic food and services and is a great place to dine on any special occasion that wouldn't kill your wallet. Would definitely be back!

Came here for dinner with friends on my first night in Adelaide…read more The restaurant specializes in high quality meat and seafood served raw on a platter with a VERY HOT stone slab on which you cook the food yourself. I enjoyed an excellent filet mignon and could not believe how much I enjoyed the cooking process. The meat cooked on the stone slab exactly the way I like it (medium well) and was quite delicious to devour. This was coupled with a superb dessert menu and choice of wines. All in all, a very memorable meal that I would repeat regularly if I lived in Adelaide. Certainly an excellent, very unique restaurant that I highly recommend to anyone visiting this city.

Popped in for an unplanned lunch. Partner is a steak fanatic and he pushed the menu aside and went…read moreup to view the cuts in the chiller. He selected a rib eye on the bone, asked the waitress which item it was on the menu, and went for medium rare. (COSTILLA DE BIFE 50.9 Riverine - New South Wales 600g grain fed rib eye, aged 28 days) The steak was perfect, beautiful char on the outside, fat rendered and yet still medium rare inside. He ended up gnawing the bone. There were no unpleasant gristly bits, no areas where medium-rare turned into blue or well done - this was a beautiful cut of meat, beautifully cooked. I had the lamb cutlets with chimi churri sauce. (CORDERO * 39.9 Adelaide Hills lamb loin cutlets char grilled with green chimi churri) I requested medium and they were cooked just as ordered. Some char on the outside, fat well rendered, these were delightful nuggets of tender lamb, brought to life by the sweet green sauce with a piquant hint of slow heat. Our only side was steak cut chips, which were perfectly crispy golden on the outside with a floury, roast potato mouth feel inside. We accompanied this with a rather morish Pinot by the glass, and followed up with a round of coffees. The waitress then presented us with a complimentary sweet port, which was quite delightful. The coffee was excellent - creamy, no burnt aftertaste, the milk was marshmallowy and it was good enough we went for seconds. These guys do know how to charge, but it's so worth it. This is how beef should be - top quality cuts, aged, eaten and appreciated on occasion. I'd rather pay $50 for a $50 steak than $30 for a $10 steak.

Two hours of loud shouting, at the top of their voices, serial swearing and profanity, airport level decibel noise. The staff were asking them to be quieter. The staff turned the lights completely off, irrespective of other patrons, for the table birthday singing, the shouting went completely over the top, and continued after the lights came back on. Extremely loud. About five other tables immediately emptied leaving, People had had enough. Other patrons like us, couldn't have a conversation due to the loud noise of one table. I did ask to be moved to the front room after an hour, but the staff refused, claiming they were full up. There was vacated table. The food and wine was excellent, but at $400 for two, one should expect that. And expect a decent atmosphere. Not a Hoon Soccer stadium atmosphere, constant swearing at the top of their voices, A decent restaurant would have asked them to leave. I've visited Argentina. And ALL the Argentinian restaurants had extremely polite diners. Usually great atmosphere. Great food. Good dining experience. But not Gauchos in Adelaide. No Tango music, or other atmosphere. No music. Instead loud "Ffff that", "Ffffing hell", "Bullsh*T", "Sh*t" at the top of voices for two hours. When paying the bill, the cashier/manager had a disinterested attitude, "who cares" attitude. I had gone to Gauchos many times in the past years, missed for a few years, it has certainly not improved. Don't dine there.

On the side is potato, either baked or as fries, and if needed some of the good salad stuff. There's a couple of options for those that aren't too fond of beef...... Their selections of entrees and deserts are a tasty treat as well. Not a place to go every day, but if you love a simple, well cooked, steak, you can't go too far wrong.

Fast forward 30 years and its a little quieter, but menu is much the same and the decor is almost back in vogue again! That might sound like a criticism but in fact that is the E&C's strength - no nonsense steaks, schnitzels, seafood, a good salad bar, and a reasonable wine list, not to mention bar prices for drinks. We ate on a Friday lunchtime and from list of rump, sirloin, t-bone, porterhouse, rib-eye and eye-fillet steak, we ordered the Filet Mignon (yep another blast from the past - that's fillet steak wrapped in bacon). It came cooked to order and was a 300gm portion that was 3cm thick and full of flavour. Coupled with the hot vegetables or salad bar and a bottle of Mitchell Peppertree Shiraz, it was a simple but enjoyable meal. You order at the counter and service was attentive and friendly. If you are wanting a steak fix, definitely a low key alternative to the more trendy, and expensive steak houses in town.

If you need some extra luck, there are loads of elephant statues here, and they all have their trunks up. It's all about the vibe.
