The exquisitely appointed and intimate Giglio dining room has been designed around the culture of wine appreciation. Featuring a cellar behind glass, solid timber floors, chairs fashioned from repurposed wine barrels, and mood-enhancing chandeliers, the scene is set for an elegantly relaxed and social dining experience.

The Giglio’s food philosophy is simple – seasonal produce, the best quality ingredients, and dishes that are significant to the owners, collected from years of extensive travel around the globe. Our meals are an absolute creation, presented on the finest crockery, cutlery and glassware for your enjoyment. An extensive selection of fine wines and champagnes are served, with most of our premium wines available in a by-the-glass option.

Open from morning until evening, start the day with a delicious a la carte breakfast, including a luxury, continental buffet. In the early evening, enjoy the ambiance and the sumptuous surroundings of the pool deck, perfect for lingering over pre-dinner drinks.

    A very well-managed establishment with outstanding communication between booking and event. The friendly Team went out of its way to make the morning a great success. It is absolute value for money with waitrons that were friendly and fully service oriented, from the moment I arrived (I arrived early). Nothing was too big an ask. The coffee was fantastic! Cheesecake was delicious. Food overall, despite the minor criticism lower down, was superb. The breakfast venue was beautiful. The ambience was relaxed and the perfect tone for the celebration - the kind of setting that makes memories. (The only minor criticism I have was the Country Breakfast - it arrived cold, as did the toast, which was rubbery by the time we received it.) This was a definite 9/10 top quality experience, with great value for money! THANK YOU to the entire staff for making my 6oth birthday celebration one to remember.

    We were rushed on everything, food orders, eating, paying etc. simply because the restaurant was not busy there the chef and the staff wanted to knock off and close. The chef hurriedly made the food, which turned out terrible, tasting like rubber and old oil. The waiter was impatient and started clearing our table whilst we were still eating. The music was turned off midway and we had to sit there for almost an hour in dead silence. Finally, everyone in the restaurant packed up and left, leaving us there by ourselves. Overall, very poor experience!!!
