Oakdene is truly an experience. If you don't visit Oakdene you are really missing out. I cannot speak highly enough about the Vineyard and Restaurant. The owners have invested a lot of money in this place. The outdoor and indoor setting is amazing to say the least! The wine sellar is surreal - an upside down house! The wine is... More

The resturant was full so we ordered wine and food and sat in the very cool, interesting, eclectic garden. It was relaxing and nice. Unfortunately the wine was over priced and the fish and chips I ordered had to be picked up from the kitchen and was in a take-away style cardboard box! Not something we were expecting for such...

I visited Oakdene for the second time on Thursday night. I took my parents, who were visiting me there, as I was so impressed with my initial visit. This time, although the food was quite enjoyable, I was not as enamored with the menu choices and nothing really "jumped" out at me. I must admit though, that I made the... More

It was a beautiful day and happened to be valentines day the venue itself is a place you could spend ages looking around its very quirky and there is the owners... More

I have eaten at Oakdene on several occasions and it has always been very good. Recently had the 2 course lunch which is terrific value and the options change fairly regularly. Good food in a lovely setting. As with many modern restaurants it can get very noisy so if the weather is good considering sitting outdoors which is peaceful and... More

Oakdene is well located on the Bellarine Peninsula where there are far too few good restaurants. Oakdene is full of promise but just lacks that wow factor to make you want to go back. Food is good but predictable and lacks finesse. It is good average fair which could be so much better. Wine list is good & well priced

We had the degustation menu. It is meant to be 6 courses, but is about 9 with all the extras they bring out. We had a lovely waiter named Talin who explained every aspect of every course to us. The presentation of the food was amazing, we wished we had taken photo's. It was such a great experience. You will... More

I took my mother to Oakdene for lunch a few weeks ago. We had to have the $75 per person option --2 courses and a glass of wine or coffee( quite an expensive lunch!). The dishes were very good but minute in size. When I asked if I could then use my entertainment card voucher, which clearly states in the... More

This is by far the best restaurant I have been to. The staff are friendly & proffessional, the food is to die for & the atmosphere is perfect. All I can say is go!
