Sean's Kitchen is hands down one of the best restaurants in Adelaide. It's like stepping into an upmarket restaurant in New York. Amazing menu equally matched with wines and cocktails. Absolutely everything on the menu is delicious but the Orgy or Mushroom Gnocchi is a MUST! It's putting clouds in your mouth that just melt away. Can be hard to get into due to being so good so book in advance. Hot tip, if you can't get a reservation give them a call to see if you can sit at the Pass. It offers a different dining experience by sitting up where the chefs are. They will chat to you while they are cooking and explain some of their dishes.

Head down the side street to the door on the left. Once you go up a few flights of stairs you are greeted to an open rooftop bar. Great even on rainy nights due to the retractable covers. Nice selection of cocktails and wines. Lots of food options with share plates & sliders. Can get quite busy on a Friday night, especially in summer.
