Nice place for fine-dining and the flavours of dishes are various no matter you are meat lover or vegetarians. Just a little comment personally on its Eggplant Moju which is a bit salty and its slow-cooked lamb is a bit dry to chew. Other than that, I'd recommend Ella- Darwin is one of the best restaurants you must try.

The quality of the food has gone down since I was there a few weeks ago. The kangaroo tartarewas extremely sweet little and dry the roti was oily and the pumpkin was too soft and mushy. Compared with my last experience care was taken away with the preparation of the food so therefore this time the experience was disappointing.😩🙏
