Overall Ratings

Apothecary 1878 Wine Bar & Restaurant opened December 2002 in a heritage listed building in the heart of the West End precinct. A true incarnation of a European-style wine bar. Explore the history, feel the culture and lose yourself in the elegance.

OMG, what a wonderful dinner we had at The Apothecary on Monday night! It was miserable weather outside but inside, encircled by those gorgeous antique apothecary fittings, it was an oasis of warmth, smiles, attention and wonderful food and wine. You could feel the dayâs stress just dissolving!It was hard to choose from a menu where everything looked interesting and delicious but we decided to share several dishes for our appetiser/entrees â delectable artisan ciabatta with olive oil and hazelnut dukkah, marinated olives, heavenly chicken liver pate` with grain crackers and an outstanding dish of crispy chickpeas, kalamata and thyme. We lingered over our wine and indulged our taste buds!We each ordered a main course with the intention, once again, of tasting each otherâs. My pork belly, beetroot , pear and smoked paprika was just how I like it â crispy outside and juicy inside. The flavours blended perfectly and I enjoyed the dish immensely (even though I looked like Hannibal Lecter by the end!) My daughterâs duck was declared divine by us all and my husbandâs marino morcilla (Italian blood sausage) with apple, spring onion and chilli was unusual and totally mouth-watering. The chilli arrived on the side to apply it according to your preference which was good because we all have different tolerance levels. The side dish of roasted pumpkin , Persian feta and zhug was to die for. All our servings were generous, delicious and beautifully presented.We actually were mega satisfied by that point but couldnât resist sharing an irresistible dessert of chocolate done in 8 ways â truffle, brownie, ice cream, mousse and others. Heaven on a plate!Throughout the evening the service was impeccable, knowledgeable and friendly and it is obvious that these people know their stuff.A feast for all the senses. We went home very happy and very satisfied. Thank you once again!

Specialising in wood-grilled steak and seafood - salads, share plates, tasting menu option - reservations taken upstairs, walk-ins welcome.

This is the second review I have completed a review on Press - but I thought it was worth adding my thoughts on the Feed Me Menu ($75pp) which I really enjoyed on my recent visit. A work colleague suggested I try it for my birthday - and yes its amazing. Great food and plenty of it. Service is good. I noticed that on the night we visited it there was 8 staff serving and approximately 20 diners. Great service!! I would highly recommend!

Having lived o/s for many years, we are still trying to get through all the new restaurants that have popped up in Adelaide and Udaberri had been on the list for some time. The primary reason we hadn't been game enough to try is that my other half lived in Mallorca for 13 years, so going to a Spanish restaurant and being impressed is quite a challenge...am therefore, also very aware that this makes us hard to please at times and can be quite critical particularly with this cuisine, so have to take my opinion with a grain of salt (of course!). That all said, with regards to the food, I actually enjoyed it - I just didn't find it to be particularly authentic. The ahem, expert other half, did not enjoy the food that much although he did admit that that was because he had high expectations - and hopes, so reading between those lines, I think he basically agreed with my summation. We shared a few dishes between the 4 of us, most of which are not actually on the menu published online currently - and being pregnant, I thought the waitress did a fantastic job of advising me on what ingredients were used in some dishes, and if they'd be ok or not for me to eat - plenty of options basically (I should say our waitress was actually excellent, especially considering how busy it was). I think the standout dish of the night for all 4 of us was the cheesecake - I'm not normally a baked cheesecake fan as I find the texture sometimes a bit too..."stick to teethy" if I can be permitted to make up such a word, but this was light, rich but not too rich, smooth, yum. Yum yum yum. We each had a piece and that says a lot after a decent meal!!Udaberri itself is a vibrant, buzzy bar, but I was very, very pleased we had been given a booth upstairs - a little out of the thick of it downstairs, we could hear each other speak, nice and comfy, but still good for people watching - eating or not, it's a great venue, however, the biggest disappointment for the table were the drinks...I very much enjoyed my mocktail, however the Sangria (of which yes, I did taste - I am allowed a taste!), was literally fruit juice with an undetectable splash of red wine for colour, and given a whole carafe was consumed by a friend who can barely cope with more than 2 glasses of alcohol, she managed the lot and was stone cold sober afterwards. The boys had a vodka and a gin each to start, neither of which even smelled like there was any alcohol in there either - and I do have super smell at the moment! The wine list was good though so they were happier once they switched to that...can't really say what was going on there, but...perhaps the bartender decided since I'm preggers, no one should be consuming alcohol on our table?? Overall, would I go back - probably, but would set the expectations to a different setting.

Service was quick, friendly & helpful when I went for dinner. There is a blackboard with a good selection of tapas type dishes. And there is the imaginative pizza menu.I had the meatball and tomato pizza. The pizza was thin & crispy & there were about two small meatballs on every slice. It was very tasty. There are also two desert pizzas .There is also an extensive selection of bottled wine, wines by the glass & many beers to choose from.

I had lunch there yesterday. Walked in the sign on the door said closed.....stayed there for another 45 minutes before it was changed. We placed a drinks order, my wife was given the wrong gin, waiter gave an apology later in the service. The food took along time to arrive, approx 45 mins. Another table did complain. Having an open kitchen where you have dishes stacked 2 foot high is not a good look when your staff are standing around talking. The steak was okay. The pork was great, the scallops were average. Sadly I wouldnât return due to the slowness of the service.
