La Boca Bar and Grill at the Stamford Plaza. Went there Saturday night and was one of the best meals I’ve had in Adelaide.
Serving of freshly cooked bread with a fantastic Chimichurri dip for starters. I had the Pork ribs for mains with a serve of root vegetables and rosemary potatoes. The Ribs were cooked to perfection and were basted in a garlic and lemon mixture and was the best ribs I’ve had in awhile. Wife had the Lamb steak which was massive and cooked to perfection and accompanied with more of the fantastic Chimichurri sauce. Couldn’t fit desert in but they all looked awesome. Couple of glasses of sangria each and came to $135 which is pretty well priced. Good atmosphere and pretty good service, will definitely be back, most probably this week.

Not so much a restaurant but Korked Wine Bar in the Port.

Becoming a fairly regular visitor there, sunny Sundays they typically have some live music on that could range from 90's covers to some smooth Jazz.

Mrs Boon enjoys a few of the wines they have on offer, Pale stubs are $7 and the delicious Goodiesons Golden IPA is $9, little steep but it's a cool little place with a good atmosphere for a few lazy Sunday afternoon drinks.

They also do the best Hungarian garlic bread you have ever eaten. Ever.

Yes, it is popular, I'm yet to go there. I've been invited the last couple of Sat nights but they don't realise how much a Sat arvo at the pub on the punt takes it out of me...

Went last Saturday night to watch a mates brother-in-law play, it's full with about 20 odd people in there and that's about what was there. A good night had.

Yes mate, there's a "back" entrance next to Low & Slow or the front door is around on Divett St.

Another one ( wine bar ) has opened up just near the Railway Hotel, we'll be checking that one out this week.

Give yourself a good night out and head to the Lighthouse Wharf at the Port. Meals are sensational plus a huge selection of craft beers. 9.5/10

Sit at a table outside on a Sunday afternoon and walk home when you're ready, even better! :D
