We are excited to introduce 'Upstairs Bellarine' our NEW dining experience 'salo-salo'

‘Salo-salo’ is a Filipino expression that refers to a gathering, feast, or banquet where people come together to enjoy food and socialise. The term originates from salo, which means to eat or share food. It captures the essence of community, sharing, and strengthening relationships through a communal meal and joyous experience. Our kitchen is led by Chefs José Morales and Alyanna Hermoso, supported by Sarah Fenton, owner and front-of-house. We aim to provide you with genuine hospitality, making you feel as though you've stepped into our home kitchen to share a meal with friends and family. Opening on Saturday the 20th of September, bookings are now open for September & October.

At Upstairs, our kitchen is led by Chefs José Morales and Alyanna Hermoso. Both from the Philippines, they possess extensive experience working in regional hatted restaurants across Australia and the world.

Our Menu

Affectionately known as ‘Upstairs,’ our restaurant features a five-course $150/person set menu that highlights the finest produce from the Bellarine. We collaborate closely with Farm My School to ensure we use fresh produce aligned with their growing seasons, along with other local producers, farmers, and growers in our area. Our menu is a celebration of fresh, local ingredients. Matched wines are offered at $75.00/person. There are also seasonal ‘add-on’ specials depending on availability
