I love breakfast at the Delicatessen and that is when I usually eat there. My go to dish is breakfast cassoulet (French style beans) with baked eggs. It has whole (delicious) sausages in it! There are huge chunks of meat in between the beany goodness. The sauce is rich. It comes with excellent toast that has been generously buttered. A great start to the day.
However, a rare trip at lunchtime provided me with the opportunity to revisit their lunch menu, in particular their sandwiches. I know the Rueben is good so I went for the Croque Madame which is a fancy ham and cheese toastie with an egg on it. This was an excellent lunch as the toastie came with asparagus spears and a nice salad. Great atmosphere and professional staff.
We arrived there 15 minutes to 9am and probably became their first table having breakfast. Coffee was fairly good but not amazing. There were couples of people grabbing coffee with their colleague. I ordered Croque madame it was very tasty but bacon inside was a bit salty. Top egg was cooked just as it meant to be.Portuguese tart was crispy but slightly sweeter than my taste. Service was warm and i really like the music they played. Nice place for breakfast. My fellow said she will definitely back again~Sorry no photos cuz we already had a bite on food before taking pictures.

Everything we ordered was great, service was quick and the waitresses smiles were quicker. I had the steak medium rare with some fancy named butter which was amazing and the entrees we shared were also great... did i mention this place was great?
One of my favourite dining experiences in Adelaide! Having visited on multiple occasions, each visit continues to live up to its expectations. The service is attentive and consistent. The chef certainly knows flavour, with every dish delicately balanced and seasoned to perfection. Thank you Delicatessen for always delivering the goods!

Excellent food, generous serves and good service. I came here to celebrate my partners birthday and they happened to have a great deal going, $45 for three courses which was quite exciting seeing as some of the mains were nearly as expensive on their own (there are cheaper options however). From what I can see they have deals and special set meals quite often, which keeps things interesting. The place was very quiet on a Saturday night, there were only 2 tables other than us. However, this probably had something to do with the hot weather and the fact that it wasn’t a whole lot cooler inside. The food itself was delicious, we ordered the pork scratchings and baked Camembert for entree, probably a mistake ordering two rich dishes but no regrets there. For mains, we had the steak (cooked nicely) and the mussels (very creamy and filling). Then we finished off with desserts which really weren’t needed but still appreciated (chocolate mousse and coconut sorbet). Wine range was decent. The waitress was also happy to recommend cocktails for us based on our tastes. Overall an excellent meal, especially if you are in the mood for some creamy, rich food. I would love to return in future to try out their lunch and breakfast options.
I went there for my 60th last October for breakfast with my Husband and Bianca the atmosphere was lovely and the food was delicious, will definitely go back
Great atmosphere, friendly staff and one of the best bacon and egg rolls I've ever had. I found it to be a tad pricey, but it was definitely worth it.
This place is a new favourite. French onion soup was perfection and the club sandwich just as good. Servings are great and prices to match.
great atmosphere, and food's even better. We dropped in for a quick bite recently, and although we didn't have a booking they were happy to rearrange a few things to accommodate. Will be back!
We came for breakfast as part of our 2nd year wedding anniversary. It had a quiet but vibrant feel, nice menu options. We enjoyed the Cassoulet and Croque Monsieur, both very tasty although the tomato sauce in the Cassoulet was pretty flat. The sausage was delicious. The coffee was one of the best we've had in Adelaide, a full flavoured, locally produced dark roast, great for a morning heart starter. We deduct marks for service, they were undermanned and my wife was almost comatose by the time the coffee arrived, (approx 15 minutes). Yes, we'd go back.
Had my Christmas Eve dinner here and was genuinely impressed!
The Bouillabaisse was definitely the highlight - the soup tasted delicious with a complex flavour from all the fresh seafood in it. The amount of seafood was generous - crab, prawns, mussels, clams, salmon… A dish that warms up your night.
The pork and thyme meatball was also amazing with the blue cheese sauce - meat was bouncy, juicy and flavourful.
The night ended perfectly with the nougat parfait - rich, milky and nicely balanced with raspberry and coco powder.
Scotch fillet was nicely charred and cooked. Escargot was a bit too plain for our liking - but maybe that’s the authentic French style.
Definitely a hidden gem in Adelaide city and good for an celebratory occasion or just a casual nice dinner on the weekend!
My husband kindly booked to go for a belated Valentine's dinner.
It was lovely.
As soon as you walk in. It's a place you want to be in. Busy at 6pm. Staff were lovely and attentive.
We had croquettes to start they were delicious. Then onto mains. We had beef cheek and a steak. Both meals were excellent.
Onto dessert. We had creme brulee is was perfect.
All the food was excellent quality. Well presented. Wine list was good. Dessert a must.
We had a great night.
Wine went down well.
Would easily come back. This was a really good quality French restaurant. See you again 🍾🍷
Loved the atmosphere of the place. Bliss 😊
Dinner at @delicatessen_bar a couple of weeks ago before going to the symphony! We haven't been back here in a very long time. We have definitely missed the food here!
.
Shallot and goats cheese tart, salad: absolutely delicious! But not quite a tart in the traditional sense 😅. The goats cheese was not overwhelming, and worked really well with the dish.
.
Salmon fillet cured with local gin, dressed fennel & honey mustard: light and refreshing! Yummy 😋😋.
.
Chive & Raclette croquette: super crunchy outside, and the inside was super gooey 🤤🤤🤤.
.
Steak medium rare, served with fat chips and salad: the steak was spot on. Can't complain at all! The chips were fantastic too 🤤🤤.
.
Duck and pork sausage cassoulet: wow this dish was full of flavour! Absolutely delicious 😋😋. The duck was 🤤🤤.
Amazing food and incredibly friendly service. The best Reuben I've ever had! All of our meals were fantastic as were the desserts and the sangria. Highly recommend a visit.
A really great experience dining here last night. The food was divine and scrumptious. I especially loved thw Scotch steak, which was perfectly cooked. So juicy and tender. Very easy to cut through. Prob the best steak I have had. The fat chips were fresh and crunchy. The salad was refreshing and tangy. My partner had their braised beef cheek, which was very rich in flavor. The crème Brûlée was heavenly and was not overly sweet. We had the tap beer and Pior Noir half bottle. The wine was great, for someone who only drinks every once in a while, I quite enjoyed it. The service was brilliant and everyone was very attentive and welcoming. The whole experience was very smooth and enjoyable. It was our first night in Adelaide and it was def unforgettable. All 5 stars
Delicious bouillabaisse, it’s so yummy with bread, must try.
Enjoyed their Chef Menu with 3 course sharing plate…..generous portion.
Nougat parfait melt in mouth.
Will be back for the duck dish.
Fantastic food and service. The pork meatballs in blue cheese sauce was delicious, and the seafood bouillabaisse was pack with ingredients and flavours!
