The Currant Shed Restaurant

Great place to try some degustation dishes. Also have great view towards its vineyard when seating outside.

We tried the dishes both exotic and familiar to some regular restaurants.

2 courses $75 pp plus wine (depending on the wine you chose)

Entree:
- kangaroo carpaccio pumpkin bush tomato saltbush
- pork belly peanut bean sprouts mint coriander kaffir lime

Main:
- lamb I chermoula cucumber dukkah
- chicken corn polenta tarragon

Wine:
- Grant Nash GSC Grenache Shiraz Carignan (red) $15 Glass
- Larnook Grenache Gris (white) $13 Glass

Entree kangaroo was a bit salty to me but I still gave 5 stars as the execution of preparing the dish was to its detail. The meat was in perfect thinly sliced and so did its pumpkin.
The pork belly was to its perfection of its crunchiness. And who would have thought that combined with the peanut sauce, it was delish, made it sort of like an Asian fusion.

Main lamb was generous. I would prefer to have a bit more of the green salad and/or add some butternut squash.
The chicken’s polenta blew my mind on how it’s cooked. Perfect crisp on the outside and soft in the inside. Combined with the corn puree made it melted in your mouth.

Both wine were just perfect pair to either of the dishes
- Red with kangaroo and lamb
- White with pork belly and chicken

We were given also some complementary pre-entree and post-main. The sourdough bread was fresh from the oven. The butter was very smooth that I couldn’t get enough of. We didn’t try the pairing wines but we ordered what we would like to have on the day.

Note:
- they change the menu every few weeks/months. This menu was developed by Wayne Leeson
- surcharge 10% on public holidays
- they also have private dining area which separates to the main (public) dining room

We didn’t try the dessert as we were still a bit full from late breakfast.

Went for lunch with my wife, enjoyed a lovely meal in a great setting. Service from Michael was great, he was attentive and friendly.

We had a lovely lunch at The Currant Shed, attentively looked after by Chloe.
Lovely food and nicely paired wines.
Really lovely location.

Lovely lunch out for a special birthday.
Be mindful to ask at each meal (degustation) if you have dietary requirements. Notified staff at the beginning of lunch and ended up receiving meals containing dairy/lactose regardless!

The Currant Shed wines were outstanding,
Ambiance and atmosphere contributed to the overall experience, the food was to die for.
The Currant Shed and waitress Monica provided an exceptional experience. Their dedication to delivering amazing food, top-notch service, and a fantastic wine selection deserves high praise.
Wonderful anniversary with my husband and just the most fabulous experience. Thank you Monica for being superior.
Such little touches didn’t go unmissed.

Had a really nice 3 course meal with friends, was going to try the degustation menu but it didn’t seem to be a degustation menu so the 3 course was more ideal for us and was very nice

We arrived without a reservation and were lucky that somebody else had no-showed, so we could have a table. We had two courses and every mouthful was a delightful experience. The staff was also everything you could wish for.
We had a beautiful afternoon.

What a beautiful setting for a sophisticated lunch! My friends and I had the three course option with wine pairing and it was a most delicious experience. The staff were so lovely, and accomodating to myself who is a vegan and my friend who is on a keto diet to manage her diabetes. While my husband and I sampled their delicious bread rolls the chef made some deep fried chicken skin for my friend. It was a wonderful brunch experience made very special by the atmosphere, food, wine, interior and service. Pricey but worth it for a special treat! P. S.the Biscoff cheesecake dessert is TO DIE FOR.

Aesthetically pleasing and delicious food, served with friendly, efficient and knowledgeable service in a shed like dining room, surrounded by vineyards.

One of the best meals I've had in quite a while. For entree, I had the chargrilled asparagus with a buttermilk dressing, followed by the beef sirloin, and my partner and I shared the biscoff for dessert. Thank you!

Wow our new favourite restaurant in SA. We went there for a 6 course chefs degustation with accompanying wines and all I can say is AMAZING. The staff were so knowledgeable and friendly, with the space just so tranquil. Will definitely be taking every opportunity we can to visit.

This place has a nice location and atmosphere, and the service was great, but the food was just ok. Other people at the table enjoyed their food more than I did so take that into consideration. I had a mushroom gnocchi dish, and it lacked flavour in parts, and seemed a little under seasoned.

Wow! Highly recommend everything was perfect they even served amuse-bouche, palate cleansers and petit fours! Kingfish was one of the best I've had as was the lamb! Service was beyond spectacular!

Wow! Was für eine raffinierte Küche! Ein absolutes MUSS. Ich würde auch extra einen Umweg nehmen, um noch Mal dort Essen zu gehen.

Great place for delicious wine, lunch and scenery, served by very well mannered staff and professional presentation also.

Wine Valley Tours recommends you pre book this little boutique experience.

Great atmosphere, friendly staff plus lovely and unexpected little amuse bouches, a cleansing sorbet and petit fours. Most of the dishes our group ordered were absolutely delicious with the exception of the mushroom gnocchi which was not pleasant.

My husband & I took our 2 friends who were here from Sunshine Coast Qld to the cellar door for a trial of their wines What we did not expect was the fabulous hospitality from Carlos who was the attending cellar door person what a pleasant morning experiencing the wine taste & if they had a platter we would have stayed all day Will certainly be back. Thank you Carlos for a most enjoyable morning

Stunning rustic location surrounded by vineyards. Beautiful food accompanied by really personal service. A must for south Australians and visitors.

We enjoyed a mid week family lunch here this week. Not only was the food fantastic, but the staff were so accommodating and welcoming of our children. I haven't experienced such great service in a long time! Only one problem.deciding what to eat from the menu! Thank you

The service, food, and wine at The Currant Shed was nothing short of magnificent. The wine list curated by Michael and the service we received from Jacinta was absolutely stellar, alongside the faultless food by the kitchen, the experience as a whole was incredible and I highly recommend to anyone visiting the region. A beautiful showcase of what South Australia has to offer.

Great service, beautiful location. The food is wonderful - a culinary experience to be had. Loved it.
