Fantastic service, wonderful food. We could only book a table upstairs for 6 pm which meant the courses on our $68 tasting menu came without delay as we were meant to be out by 8pm. However, there was never any pressure to vacate our table and the closer it got to 8pm the noisier the restaurant became. Every course was... More

With no booking on a Friday night we arrived hoping for a table for 5 and were successful. Service was a little slow at times, but it was a busy night. Food was amazing. The burger, whilst feeling a little out of place, was AMAZING, with the onion rings the best I have ever had. Wines were priced okay, with... More

Six of us visited last Tuesday night, we let the restaurant choose what we ate and were delighted with what we had. Entrees were wonderful, slow cooked pork with crackling, brilliant, soufflé to die for. Well done, well done. Very busy remember to book.

Pear, Gorgonzola dolce, radicchio and walnut salad. Ordered this with a group. 1/ salad had no walnuts. Questioned it and they put walnuts on. 2/ a bit into the walnut version and all I can taste is raw onion. Ask: does this salad have raw onion? Yes, of course..all our salads have raw onion. Me:: I can't eat raw onion,... More

the wine list is very well thought out and vast( no corkage) quality of dishes was patchy, as was the service- one waitress wanted to continually interrupt to socialize with my companion!!...this irritated- some tables seem dark and cramped, too close to other diners.

This restaurant is located in the CBD of Adelaide in a street that is now home to some very fine eating places.Competition is high but Press does itself proud. The setting is divided into 2 areas, a downstairs area of long shared tables (the wine bar) and up stairs the conventional restaurant format. This place has a very good vibe... More

On recommendation from friends, chose Press to celebrate my 70th birthday with family and friends when travelling to Adelaide. We were too late booking to secure an upstairs table but, being 12, were allocated a complete table downstairs. From the outset this was a night to remember. Choosing the 4 course tasting menu and starting with appropriate fizz, the we... More

We were directed to this restaurant by another restaurateur who in common with many Adelaide restaurants didn't open his restaurant on a Tuesday night. It was a happy redirection. Press has a wine bar downstairs and a restaurant upstairs. Both were full to bursting. The menu was excellent with a great variety of dishes to suit most palates and all... More

This was my fifth visit to Press and I was not disappointed. Each time I have been to Press the food has been prepared to a high standard and very tasty. The menu has so many fantastic choices. My favourites for entree are the pork buns and tuna sashimi – AMAZING! And unfortunately I haven’t been able to go past... More

We visited Press,with 9 friends for a special occasion lunch. Had the tasting menu at $68 great value. I think Press' food is modern,without being cutting edge. A bit home style. But really well cooked and presented. The wine list is more modern,well explained and great prices. However the service is exceptional. Not intrusive at all, but you want for... More
