Mt Erica Hotel 5

The Mt Erica Hotel - Austin's Fine Dining

When Dan Stock from the Herald Sun calls your Pork Belly "gloriously good" you know you're onto something incredible. Confidential named the Mt Erica as in "Melbourne's top 3 tapas". With critical acclaim Austin's is surely moving towards Melbourne's culinary pinnacle.

Head Chef Sunny Gilbert (Ex Movida Next Door) is a Spanish and Mediterranean specialist. His seasonally changing menus are impressively matched by Austin's wine list selected by wine connoisseur Ross Murray. Sourced globally whilst always having Spain in mind to compliment Sunny's penchant for the territory.

Combining a fine dining experience with one of Australia's most historic local pubs was not an easy task. Owner Mark McIlroy has excelled to keep an uplifting local flavour in the bar with some of Melbourne's finest live music acts gracing the stage on a regular basis where Cold Chisel once played.

This venue is one not to be missed if you're a local or visiting internationally. It's on a sure path to becoming an Australian icon.
