Crafted for Sharing
Our kitchen focuses on dishes that bring people together, much like a good hand of poker. We use seasonal produce from South Australian growers, and plates are designed to be shared, encouraging conversation and connection.

The Stack House Approach
Crafted for Sharing
Local and Seasonal
We let the ingredients lead, changing our menu to reflect what's best each season. There is a strong emphasis on fresh, locally sourced meats, seafood, and vegetables, and our chefs work closely with producers to ensure quality.
Signature Dish
Charred Octopus with Romesco
Tender octopus charred over open flame, served with a smoky romesco sauce, crispy potatoes, and fresh herbs.
The octopus is slow-cooked then finished on the grill for a perfect char. Romesco adds a nutty, slightly spicy depth, making this a favourite among regulars and first-time visitors alike.
Signature Dish
Slow-Roasted Lamb Shoulder
Fork-tender lamb shoulder roasted for hours with rosemary and garlic, served with roasted root vegetables and a rich jus.
The lamb is sourced from local South Australian farms. Slow roasting ensures maximum flavour and tenderness, and the generous portion is perfect for sharing between two or more guests.
Signature Dish
Pan-Seared Barramundi
Crispy-skinned barramundi fillet served on a bed of sautéed greens with a lemon butter sauce and capers.
Barramundi is a classic Australian fish, sustainably sourced. The skin is seared to a perfect crisp while the flesh remains moist, making this a lighter option that doesn't compromise on flavour.
Dining and Poker
Fuel for the Table
Our signature plates are designed to be enjoyed before, during, or after a session of offline poker upstairs. The card lounge and poker rooms are just a short walk from the dining area, and many guests enjoy a shared plate before settling in for an evening of face-to-face poker. The relaxed, social atmosphere of the restaurant mirrors the friendly competition of the poker tables.
Chef's Philosophy
From Our Kitchen
Our head chef believes that great food, like a great poker hand, is about balance, timing, and a little bit of intuition.
We focus on technique and simplicity, letting quality ingredients shine. Each plate is tested and refined to ensure consistency, and the team draws inspiration from both classic Australian cuisine and international flavours.
