Where the money actually goes

A 45-day-aged rib eye costs what it does because the steer ate grass for three years and the cut lost a third of its weight in the coolroom before it met the fire.

The same arithmetic applies across the menu — the truffle arrives by overnight courier from Manjimup, the oysters are shucked to order and never see a freezer, and the butter is churned forty minutes up the road. Premium pricing buys provenance you can taste, not a label on the door.

Pricing questions

About the bill

Anything else — the full FAQ covers it.

The bar and lounge serve the full menu until 11pm with no booking needed, and weekday lunch sets run $55 for two courses. The Evening package at $155 is the best-value way to combine dinner with the casino floor.
Menu prices stay flat year-round. Ticketed events — New Year's Eve, Melbourne Cup, truffle dinners — are priced per event and shown upfront. Public holidays carry a standard 10% surcharge, disclosed on the menu.
Tables can split evenly or itemise to four cards. Groups beyond that pay on a single bill — for private events we can invoice your company directly with 14-day terms on approved accounts.
Matched-play credits are promotional and hold no cash value — they can't be refunded or transferred. The dining components of a package follow the standard 7-day refund window.
