About Ottelia

Scoring a lunch table at Ottelia anchors any road trip across Coonawarra’s terra rossa strip. The kitchen runs a multi-course chef’s tasting menu featuring smoked trout tacos, mussel tostadas, and slow-cooked lamb shoulder—paired with pours of their Anytime White. Table talk leans toward the blistered sourdough pizzas, pillows of ricotta gnocchi, and warm loaves served with smoked butter. Diners take in vineyard views while the floor crew runs brisk, thoughtful bottle briefings.

  • Chef's Degustation: Multi-course set menu sequencing bites like mussel tostadas and smoked trout tacos alongside matched estate pours.
  • Woodfired & Comfort Classics: Puffed woodfired sourdough pizzas, pillowy ricotta gnocchi, and slow-cooked lamb shoulder crafted for sharing.

Before you head over

Practical advice to help you plan your visit, tasting, and dining experience smoothly.

  • Book Ahead for Lunch Sittings

    The dining room fills quickly with limited afternoon sitting turnover; reserve ahead to secure your table, or phone ahead if you're arriving spontaneously.

  • Don't Miss the Artisan Sourdough

    Complement the wood-fired pizzas by ordering the house sourdough with butter, or pair it with seasonal starter dishes like the tomato salad to share.

  • Clarify Wine Tasting Fees

    If you plan to sample wines after lunch, be aware that wine tastings involve a separate non-redeemable tasting fee rather than being waived automatically with dining or bottle purchases.
