What an absolutely breathtaking experience. I booked the 4 course dinner at Tarrawarra Estate as a surprise for my boyfriend’s birthday, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. From start to finish, we were both just blown away by the service, the atmosphere, the building, the interiors and, of course, the food and wine!! The appetisers upon arrival, along with the focaccia, were both just divine. The trout consommé was so beautifully fresh and the perfect way to begin the amazing food journey that was to follow. We were both so amazed the richness and complexity of flavours in the mushroom cavatelli, but the highlight for us was the duck. You know a dish is perfect when you both sit in silence just enjoying it without needing any words. I absolutely loved the macadamia tart and my partner had the selection of cheeses which he thoroughly enjoyed. A beautiful touch was the gorgeous little birthday cake that was bought over at the end, which was such a lovely way to end an already superb evening. We were also lucky enough to have the head chef, Joel, come over to our table and speak with us which gave us the opportunity to thank him for creating such amazing food. To make it even more special, we were told that this was the first dinner they were hosting as the 4 courses, and we were one of the first to book. Thank you for such a magical evening and we hope you continue the 4 course dinners so that others can experience the joy we did.

I have an onion & garlic intolerance which was catered for with ease by the kitchen & staff.

Wonderful family lunch experience! Unobtrusive, knowledgeable and personable service. Good communication with a couple of dietary requirements, the staff took the time to talk through the options with us. We all loved the food, it was delicious as well as inventive and filling! My dad was particularly happy with the risotto, he said it's the first time he's had a restaurant risotto arrive at the table still at temp while being perfectly cooked. Starters, mains, and desserts are all delectable! We were a table of seven - ordering, pacing and beverage service/top ups all on point. Good selection of non-alc cocktails which we were pleasantly surprised by. Highly recommend if you're in the area. Also recommend popping into the cellar door before your lunch and grabbing a tasting or a couple of glasses of wine - we sat out on the patio and enjoyed some wine while overlooking the pond, it was a lovely way to start the day!

My absolute new Yarra Valley favourite place! The food was amazing. A few of us had the paired wine experience! I highly recommend this option. Maybe Uber there and back so your party can all enjoy this. The staff were very knowledgeable and very accomplished in customer service. To really experience TarraWarra a visit to the art gallery before your meal absolutely enhanced our experience. We are very much looking forward to our next visit,

Excellent location to celebrate an occasion with you family. A great fine dining experience. The four course menu was well thought out. The bread and the pumpkin butter was a unique positive experience. The entrees were really nice. The main had mix of flavours bitterness and sweetness. Slightly larger mains portion would have been better. The dessert was excellent very well balanced with saulted caramel tart with a dollop of vanilla ice cream. Overall an excellent lunch. Highly recommend it. You will need to book for a seating a few weeks before the date. The restaurant gets booked out pretty often.☺️

Always stunning food and a wonderful space and view. Menu was fresh and had great depth of flavour. Its so nice going to a place with a well thought out standard plant based menu, rather than getting something cobbled together. This has become an annual birthday treat for us and it never disappoints. Highlights were the macadamia relish(?) and the dessert was so refreshing with a perfectly balanced sweet, sour and fragrant elements.

We had the worst wine tasting experience here among the wineries in Yarra. Staff is super rude and only served tiny tiny drops of wine. The staff went through the wines with 0 passion and very brief wine intro. Immediately took away the wines after serving them in which I was unable to take photos of wine bottles. Poor service was being given with neither smile nor eye contact . Wines are pretty average. I hope the management could really strengthen the training for staff as well as improving attitude to guest. Really bad experience.

Tarra Warra is one of my favourite restaurants and wineries. The winery grounds are elegant and tasteful, as is the food. Farm to table freshness with thoughtfully planned seasonal menus. I recommend the 4 course menu with the wine pairing. The Buxton trout consomme was my favourite dish, so fresh and delicious with a light smoky flavour. I’m always excited to return for another amazing meal.

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience. Our four-course meal on January 1 was beautiful, every course was well-planned, executed and wonderfully presented. Lots of non-alcoholic options and small glasses of wine for the designated driver. The service was great as well. I was pleased that I was able to surprise my family with such a highlight at the start of the year. It was too hot to explore the grounds in depth, but we had a pleasant and inspiring visit to the museum. Definitely worth coming back.

One of the most beautiful wineries in Victoria! Stunning landscapes and views. Had an amazing afternoon here soaking in the sun and nature. Staff was very helpful with wine selection and tasting menu. Service was great. The outdoor deck overlooking the pond and vines is the best place to be! There is a restaurant present to enhance your experience experience. Highly recommend a visit. Parking is available and has all the facilities for comfort.

I naïvely stumbled into the restaurant without a booking - the staff were kind enough to accomodate me (unaware of the decadence of the venue, underdressed). The food was incredible - particularly the duck. The staff were warm and attentive. A special, divinely scenic dining experience - the solitude I needed

Lunch at Tarrawarra Estate was just divine. We had the four-course lunch with paired wines and every course was beautiful and delicious. The presentation was perfect, the service was great. I can’t recommend more for a long lunch with a loved one.

Visited TarraWarrra with my partner for our anniversary. The waiter's at the resturant were incredibly friendly, service was impeccable and the food was phenomenal. Didn't like how many tourists were there though they ruined the scenery a bit.

Beautiful location, perfect for kids with loads of grassy hills to keep them occupied whilst you delight in some wine and snacks. We were late so a quick wine tasting for us but we will be back! I recommend signing up to their loyalty program for a year as 20% off wine and free wine tasting for you and friends. Pretty good deal. …

$20 estate wine tasting and $30 for premium. Not happy with the service - went at around 2pm and the gentleman was not focusing on the explanation and kept being distracted. Giving 1 star cos went to Oakridge afterwards and it’s heaven and earth difference. $15 tasting over there and much enthusiastic explanation.

The food is fantastic with gorgeous view. The lamp backstrap is tender, not raw/overcooked. I love the tart - sweet but not greasy. The chef prepared a surprise - nice tiny sweet birthday cake as finish. One of the best winery restaurants I have been. Definitely will go back again.

I went to a wine tasting here with my family. 4 people out of the 6 were tasting the wine as we had two designated drivers. The sommelier became agitated at this and was very condescending throughout the whole tasting. While the venue was gorgeous we were not impressed with the service. More

Booked a 3 course lunch for my parents visiting from abroad - wow TarraWarra was truly exceptional. Lovely smaller size restaurant (reservations reqd) with fantastic food (appreciated the plant based menu as I am vegetarian) and elevated service. More

Beautiful wine, lovely staff, delicious food, and a gorgeous view! What's not to love? If you have time I also recommend going to the gallery and having a wine tasting. Wonderful day out!

We went to TarraWarra Estate for my birthday 2 course lunch special. Food was tasty. Estate wine choices pinot noir, Chardonnay and Merlot were exceptional. Only down fall is that the portion size was quite small, which left us feeling

I recently had the pleasure of dining at TarraWarra Restaurant and I must say, it was a delightful experience. The three-course lunch was simply outstanding and I left feeling thoroughly satisfied.

Amazing Sunday Afternoon lunch at TarraWarra Wine Estate. 4 courses washed down with a 2016 Reserve Chardonnay. Stunning food, service and wine. Thanks Troy Chandler for the recommendation. More
