Great food and great customer service. Would definitely return here and wish I had known about it earlier. Peel St is shaping up to be the new go to.
Lovely ambience, and polite staff. When I dined here a while back, my friend and I unfortunately encountered an unexpected situation whereby the chef was involved in an accident on his way to the restaurant. The staff were ever so apologetic yet accommodating, and we were offered a discount on our cheese platter (which was yum btw!). I also enjoyed the pasta dish but was a bit taken aback by how small it was.
It didn’t seem that long ago when we were celebrating the opening of this new European restaurant and bar on the ever trendy Peel Street. A place where they encourage you to indulge in Greed and Gluttony – the 2nd and 6th sins. While admittedly confused about what to expect from this place back then we decided to give it a proper go with dinner. I also heard desserts were their strength but let’s get through the dinner menu first.
I returned for cocktails on a Friday night and the table service was spot on. Unfortunately the kitchen doesn't open until 6pm so drinks and nibbles wasn't really an option. However, we were still there when the kitchen opened so a serve of truffle chips was in order to soak up the cocktails. Tasty. The food coming out looked good.
Came here for a celebratory night on a Thurs with 12 of us. Service was friendly and accomodating, but the first thing I noticed was how uncomfortable the stool chairs were- for a table having dinner for at least 1.5 hrs, comfy chairs are a must.
Drinks were great, and staff happy to recommend. And the menu reads fantastically, a sort of European/Aussie fusion of fine dining. But sadly didn't live up to it. Sounds amazing on the menu, looked incredible on the plate, but taste was so average. No point in looking amazing if the taste is lacking. My smoked potato was lumpy and gluggy, the chips (truffle salt chips!) Had no distinguishable truffle taste, nor did the garlic aioli, the veggies were a nice variety but all undercooked and again not enough of the accompanying aioli to flavor. My mushroom tartine was thankfully flavorsome. Not bad food- but seriously underwhelming. With a great location I think it has potential but the food needs a focus.

I first thought this place was named after two of New York’s avenues. But, no, this little upstairs-downstairs bar on Peel Street is named after the 2nd and 6th deadly sins: greed and gluttony. Sounds right up my alley, given I am a greedy and gluttonous wine monster.
Although this one isn’t exclusively for those on a liquid diet, there’s also a European-inspired lunch and dinner menu. And one look at Instagram tells you you’re in for a treat, with some fancy looking dishes coming out of the kitchen. Probably no surprise given Michelin-starred chef Pierre Richez is at the hot plate. Although I might pass on the trio of escargot.
Amazing food! I dunno if anyone ever felt the same way, but to me it was those moment that when the food was SOOO GOOD that you just hope to meet the chefs in person and tell them how good the food was! From Entrees to Main courses and desserts, rarely found a restaurant that shares the same consistency and excels in all of them. Highly recommended x
Visiting from Melbourne, I decided to check this place out for lunch because I heard Peel Street is the new go-to street. I had the tapas of eggs and it was heaven! I liked this place so much I came back for drinks that night. They make great cocktails and their atmosphere is great. Awesome place to catch up with friends or just going out for drinks
Nice for something different but probably wouldn't return. Food was incredibly rich. Feed me menu did come with 4 desserts which was more than the entrees/mains which was slightly weird! Table was tiny and we had 3 people on it. Staff were overbearing and needed to let us have space to decide etc. quality of food was very good but not to my taste.
Visiting from Melbourne, we were told by many friends to check this place out. And we're so glad that we did. Peel Street is the liveliest place in Adelaide at the moment and 2nd & 6th would have to be the standout. The cocktails are amazing - you could spend hours at this venue with your friends and people watch. The food, however, is of a calibre I have never before experienced in Adelaide. Each dish was delicious and beautifully crafted. Make an effort to visit 2nd & 6th - you will not be disappointed.
