Restaurants near Elm Cottage

Staff were very attentive, but not intrusive. Food and beverages arrived as ordered. Coffee was especially nice.

Intimate space, semi-industrial feel with its recycled ceiling beams, welcoming service, windows opening out to the street - but it’s the food that truly seduces: tenderest lamb neck draped over smoky eggplant, perhaps, or oozey stracciatella spiked with shrimp sambal and charred sourdough for scooping it up with; thoughtful wine list and generous serves best shared. It’s a Canberra jewel.

My partner and I dined here for the first time tonight. We ordered the feed me menu - omni for him and vegetarian for myself. There was no issue when we asked for my food to be made vegan and gluten free. Some replacements had to be made to suit my dietary requirements and everything was absolutely delicious. The wait staff were very friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was calm and romantic. We are looking forward to going back.

If you don’t mind the short drive out of the city, it’s a nice new eatery with sports bar, which is still appropriate for families. Reasonable price- $25 for steak, chips and veg/salad with a drink on a Tuesday night. Great find!

6 of us celebrated a 21st at Wilma - we thought it was fantastic. The service / staff were great and food interesting - we opted for the "Feed me" - a Chef's selection of 8 dishes. All beautifully presented - $76pp. We had organised Bombe Alaska at home so didn't stay for dessert, but Honor (server) presented us with 6 small Portugese tarts and a candle. This is the 2nd time we have had staff go out of their way to follow up on a guest comment (previously, they popped across the road to Akiba to get Green Tea as it wasn't available!).
