Anyway, the pub isn't too fancy, probably more a place for the residents to come a have a meal, or a few beers.

In fact, what's really cool about this place is that they have proper English beers on tap. Okay, I have to admit that I honestly am not a fan of English beers, namely because I just don't like the way they are made (they tend to taste like flat soft drink), but it is still cool that they have them available, no doubt because it makes me feel like I'm actually in England. Yeah, this place is awesome. Oh, and they have a beer garden as well.

The gentle, pleasant odour of the salty, splashing azure waters just over the other side of the bowls club gives that signature seaside getaway sense. The memories of the hunger for fish n chips, sand in between your toes and a light touch of sunburn come flooding back as we walk in the door. It's good to be back. Although this time, instead of fish and chips, we opted to share the tomahawk steak dinner special with tapas starters. Oh man, two of my most favouritest meal varieties in all the world, combined into one utterly decadent dinner treat for the senses! Between three adults and one child, we plowed through the delish tapas treats and the perfectly cooked steak with aplomb. Service was outstanding. Friendly, not too OTT, timely, discreet and open to questions/providing suggestions. By the end of the meal, I was well-fed, laughing heartily, wine-soaked like an upper-class pirate, and just about ready for a dip in the sea! It's not an obvious destination if you're in from out of state, but well worth a visit if you can find it.

The only thing that is a bummer is that they are only open from Wednesday through to Saturday but I'm hoping in Summer they increase their hours as this place caters to a younger crowd that really is needed in victor

A real local favorite, sitting nicely in that comfortable space between pub-grub and fine dining…read more It was our anniversary last night (Tuesday) and so we thought we'd go out for a meal. Those reading this from outside of South Australia may not be aware of the naivety of that statement. Trying to find an up-market restaurant outside of the trendy places that opens its doors on a Tuesday, is about as frustrating as looking for a bacon sandwich in Tel Aviv on a Saturday morning - they're there, but you have to search and be willing to travel a long way. The Elliot though is reliable, it's open every night, the staff are friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable about their menu and wines. So in the end, after promising ourselves to splash out next month, we headed over there. It wasn't really a compromise, we've never had a meal there that we weren't happy about. Anyway, on to the food... We skipped entree as we tend to be two-course people and know that it's worth holding back some room for dessert here. I had the slow cooked Murraylands pork belly, pilaf rice with pepper maple glaze and the dearly beloved had Huon River Atlantic salmon fillet, rocket, blistered cherry tomato and asparagus salad, caper and dill remoulade. Both were priced reasonably at a gnat's nadger under $26. The pork belly was well cooked with a nice layer of crispy skin, the maple flavour was a good balance to the meat although my palette didn't get any pepper coming through. The rice was a little over-cooked for my taste but that's just me being picky and a generous helping of broccolini that wasn't mentioned on the menu complemented the meal well. I'm assured that the salmon was perfectly cooked as well and the kitchen were sent back two empty plates (why do so many restaurants fail to understand that bread is needed to soak up those last traces of sauce?). The tassie Dalrymple Pinot Noir (at an inoffensive price) set off the meal well and was (big gold star here) served at the right temperature. Dessert for me was Sticky Date and Ginger Pudding with butterscotch sauce and vanilla bean parfait and the chocolate brownie, ganache with vanilla bean cream for herself. I'm conflicted here - the pudding was light and tasty, the sauce and parfait were great but the ginger was so understated that it was barely discernible and I do like a date pudding to have bits of date in it. Again though, two empty plates. All in all, the Elliot is a place to add to your list of places to visit - great location, good food, reasonable prices, terrific staff. Useful to note that Friday and Saturday generally have live music - whether that's a good thing or a bad thing is your call but they do have some very good acts there - Tip: If you've not seen her, get down there one evening when Zkye (not a typo) is playing.

It was quite busy being a Sunday, but we never felt rushed or it wasnt too loud in the dining room. Having a carpet floor instead of hardwood makes it a more pleasant experience too. Service was friendly and helpful. Answered menu questions without hesitation. Lunch time menu was quite full for choice as well and the wines list. Hahing actual table service was a nice change instead of lining up at the bar as we seem to be doing more and more these day. Feeling quite peckish, the smells from the kitchen didn't disappoint. My partner had smokey ribs n wings with pull apart melt n your mouth brisket. A feast for the senses and stomach!!! I had a succulent chicken schnitzel. Typical pub food but surprising at how majy people can get it so wrong. Well not here!!! Cooked perfect.. A golden crust surrounded a juicy piece of chicken. Definitely recommend this place.

We ordered steak _well done, no blood_ and had to send it back 3 times. Each time it came out raw with blood running across the plate. Staff shrugged and said "steak is cooked with blood coming out, it's natural". Hygiene is non-existent - 0/10. The waitress had her fingers all over the food when she brought the plate out. After all the back-and-forth to the kitchen, we both got sick. It genuinely felt like something was done to the food. The staff stand around gossiping about customers loud enough for everyone to hear. When we raised the issues politely, we were treated like rubbish. To top it off, I received an aggressive, insulting email from the manager/owner saying we are no longer welcome, just for complaining about raw food and poor hygiene. *Food*: Undercooked, unsafe *Service*: Rude, unprofessional, gossipy *Hygiene*: Disgusting - staff touching food *Management*: Hostile and unaccountable Avoid at all costs.

Any pub that doesn't succumb to the lure of the pokie machine is going to be a good pub in my books, and it certainly was a good pub. In part it felt like an inner-city pub, yet it still retained that rural feeling about it, probably because there was a building out the back called 'The Barn' that happened to be a function room (and there was also a barbecue under the shelter). Okay, it still seemed to be a place where the locals would sit at the bar chatting with the bartender, but I didn't let that get to me, especially with the lounge area sporting some rather interesting artwork.
