Peel St

Had an amazing dinner at Peel St last night. The tapas were incredible, every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. My host Shelby was fantastic, going out of her way to make the evening special with genuine recommendations and warm service. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxed, perfect for unwinding. Honestly, the food was so good I went back the next night…when’s the last time a restaurant made you do that? Peel St has definitely earned a new regular customer.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

An Unforgettable Fusion Feast at Peel St Restaurant! Ambience & First Impression: The moment we stepped into Peel St at 9 Peel Street, I was struck by the industrial‑chic vibe—exposed brick walls, a long concrete bar, and an open kitchen buzzing with energy. The décor is relaxed yet stylish, setting the perfect scene for a fun, communal dining vibe. Vibe & Atmosphere: The place was packed midday on a weekday, full of chatter and clinking glasses. Despite the bustle, the service felt effortless and genuine—casually dressed staff hovering with confidently recommended plates and drinks. Food Highlights: We began with olives and focaccia—how delicious—and we devoured them! Then came the banana blossom chicken—tender and fragrant, served with chilli jam and coconut salad. Every mouthful was layered with textures and spice. Perhaps the standout was the pork belly with prawns, peanuts, and Asian greens—a masterful balance of rich, sweet, nutty, and umami, rolled in herbs and sauce. Also, try ordering "small" plates—which are actually generous "large" shares—perfect for sampling a variety. Taste & Flavour Profile: Every dish combined Middle Eastern and Asian flavours in clever, creative ways—think coriander, sumac, nam jim, herbs, tahini, and pomegranate—all packed into share plates. The food feels generous and intensely flavorful without being pretentious. Staff are highly knowledgeable and friendly. They offer advice and pace the service wellhether you’re sitting at the bar watching the chefs or at a communal table. The wine list is thoughtfully curated, heavily featuring South Australian producers and some international options. However, it was the perfect night to order ‘GinkaTonic’ as I always called it On a High Note, the sweet finale was the peanut butter parfait—a decadent explosion of mousse, caramelized banana, chocolate and salted caramel. It was indulgent and impossible not to finish. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Absolute great place for catching up with friends, food size is great for sharing. Staffs are attentive, very informative on menu products, friendly and this place is always busy! Will definitely return again!

Ate with work colleagues. The banana blossom salad reads odd on the menu but it’s really brilliant. Loved it. We had the " feed me" option and all the dishes were well with it. Will definitely be coming back.

Delicious fusion food with generous serves. We had the octopus toast and lamb dumpling for starters and the short rib for main and we were stuffed! The flavours was really well balanced. The service was excellent and the meals came out promptly

Wow wow wow Good was amazing, tasty and a fantastic menu. Pricing was extremely good for the food that was presented. Atmosphere was excellent we say at the bar and watched the kitchen do their thing, which was a well oiled rig. Would recommend this to anyone specially a foody.

It was a unique dining experience with equally unusual dishes. You go here more for the vibes than the food. Definitely wont order dishes here next time... just drinks.
