Came in tonight to take my mum out for a late birthday dinner. Service and food was excellent and the cocktails we ordered were wonderful, wouldn't have even guessed that our bartender hadn't made them before! So yum. Our waiter/s were lovely and attentive too. We also didn't realize we were the only people left in the venue and that staff were ready to close, but we appreciated being able to finish our drinks without being rushed. Will definitely be back again. �
Thanks Rhonda and Sam and all staff for a fantastic night celebrating my 60th birthday. Rhonda you were so accommodating in planning and nothing was too much trouble. The ambience, food and service made my birthday celebrations so memorable and enjoyed by myself and family and friends. I would highly recommend the Telegraph for any special event. Forever grateful...Jill
Lovely atmosphere for a working lunch, chose from the express lunch menu which at $21.90 also includes a drink. I went for the 200g Scotch Fillet and it was a good choice. When it arrived it was glistening and my mouth was watering. One bite and yum, it was cooked medium rare as expected, decedent "Cafe de Paris" butter on top, bacon and onion pieces and the most crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside potatoes. My collegue had the sticky pomegranate chicken and enjoyed it. My only criticism was I requested my latte at the end of my meal but it arrived at the beginning though wasnt really bothered. All in all a nice experience.
Better than expected! It doesn't look like much from the outside but came in for a weekday express lunch. $21.90 got me a shiraz and a 200g scotch fillet. The dish was fairly simple but executed well. Those crispy chat potatoes with the steak, bacon, onion and butter was flavourful and well balanced. Also tried the 3 cheese potato croquettes - they are excellent! Tasty and crunchy. Other than the limited parking, had a good experience. For dinner however, it may be on the expensive side, but I'll most likely be back
Excellent service, comfy spacious seating and yummy food. It was a busy night but we were well looked after and our meals were on the table in no time. Girl1 had calamari & salad as a main it looked amazing, Girl2 had the Chicken & pomegranate & I had the special Gnocchi with pumpkin, Sage, walnut with burnt butter LOVED IT. Have been many times & not the last.
Thursday night is oyster night $1 oysters for starters was great. Ordered the steak which was perfect apart from being served mildly warm as per the other 2 steaks served to our table. But definitely made up with the nice grilling it received.
Don't judge a book by its cover. Outside a little tired looking but inside great atmosphere and decor. Food was excellent. We had the chicken scallopini, rocking and vege curry (although maybe a touch sweet).
Went for Mother's Day lunch. Restaurant was busy and maybe a little understaffed as we had to wait a while to order, but when the food came it was absolutely delicious. My sister is vegan so had the vegan curry. Absolutely delicious. We also ordered the gnocchi and nasi goreng. Both superb. The menu seems a bit pricey but once you see the size and the quality of the meals, it is so worth it. Great décor too. And friendly wait staff.
The telegraph is our local and never disappoints. The food is always great, the menu has a good range of dishes to pick from and the staff are always friendly.
I went for lunch with my wife and had the lunch special. Beef cheek sliders sooooo tasty with the pickle and my wife had the calamari salad and that was delicious. Highly recommend and will be back. The staff very efficient without being intrusive.
We have been back a few times over the past 12 months and never been disappointed with our meals or service. We had a family dinner here last week, my salmon was amazing and our waitress was lovely. Id love to see some new items on the menu as I think it has been the same every time I have been, but overall great work.
Excellent food, slow service.
Firstly the ambiance is so welcoming and beautiful. A great place to go on dates or bring families. The bar has a wide selection of Wines. Their food was delicious and the serving size is quite big, so you will definitely leave the place satisfied. The staff was friendly and approachable
Great food and selection of wine - will definitely come back! Ordered Housemade potato Gnocchi (which was incredible with crunchy chips on top and a wonderfully flavoured cauliflower puree) and a lemon cake for dessert - which was also brilliant.
So glad we are back to dining out. The atmosphere and menu at the Telegraph is amazing. We had the pan seared scallops, followed by the crispy duck - yummy. I think I’ve had nearly everything on the menu and ever been disappointed. The food is wonderful. A great selection of beverages- I like their Prosecco, it’s not too sweet. As for the service…what a happy friendly lot they are. Good job guys.
The Telegraph is one of the most beautifully appointed hotels I have seen in a while. Very chic decor and modern hues - the furniture, art, mirrors and whole place has been very thoughtfully placed to make your wine or dining experience a TOP NOTCH one. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. I cannot rate this experience highly enough. Do yourself a favour and pop in!
Delicious food, great local wine selection and beautiful interior and ambience.
Delightful dinner with duck being the "Go"! Beef cheeks and chicken scallopini were very good. Wine selection was plentiful. Service was great and the evening was enjoyable. A good spot to share with family and friends.
The telegraph provided a lovely function upstairs for my grandmas 80th. The staff were amazing! Food was delicious.The owner graciously gave her a free cocktail which was very kind. Highly recommend.
