Alto Tower Restaurant

Beautiful view, delicious food, great service. My husband and I were particularly impressed by the waiters wine knowledge. 22/05/2012

Thank you to the wonderful staff who made the night perfect! I popped the question to my beautiful girlfriend who had no idea! The staff helped me with delivery of the ring and even came out with some complimentary champagne once she said yes! We are now looking into having our sopecial day at Alto next spring. Thank you!!! 21/05/2012

What a beautiful place to have a meal. All three courses were magnificent, the staff were helpful and friendly (not condescending like most places). The food was delicious, I had the souffle and the Duck and the Blueberry Tart, and all three were perfect. 27/04/2012

I had dinner at Alto 2 nights ago and everything was wonderful: the food, the view, the ambiance. My husband and I had the five course degustation with matched wines and it was simply amazing. Top notch. 27/04/2012

I have loved this place for years - we keep coming back - it SO good. Have a masquerade cocktail, enjoy the souffle and the pork main (best pork in the country!) and follow up with a chocolate dessert. My monthly presciption for a little bit of happiness - taken with a stunning view of Canberra at sunset. 23/04/2012

We don't eat out much as my wife is a Chef and we seem to just pick holes in restaurants. I went on the recommendation of friends for our wedding anniversary. We were not disappointed, I had Pork which just melted in my mouth and my wife had Lamb Tagine we she described as Fabulous. The Service was excellent the Food to die for and the view well who doesn't want Canberra at their feet. Superb and thanks for a great evening. 14/04/2012

I recently had the pleasuring of organising an 80th birthday dinner at Alto Black Mountain Tower Restaurant for my Mum. We had a table set for 15, and had an absolutely wonderful time. The changing 360 degree view was amazing, and it was nice seeing the light change from late afternoon to an evening of twinkling lights. Beautiful! The food was lovely, the service was exceptional, and the price was good I thought, given the high rents they must be paying! The noise from other tables was not an issue either, as tables were spaced out nicely. This was my second meal there in a bit over a month, and I recommend it to everyone who is looking for special night out in a relaxed, non-hurried atmosphere. Five stars!!! 13/04/2012

This restaurant is one of the coolest cocktail lounges I have ever been too but it is not even aware of it! It reminded me of a time where Mums wore furs and Dads had white dinner coats. Seriously my wife and I felt like Don and Betty Draper up there. We had the 3 courses for $75 simply outstanding on every conceivable level and we enjoyed Strawberry Daqs, Grey Goose Martinis and Long Island Ice Teas (not on menu by the way) for over four hours. Fantastic displays of passion and expertise shown by the entire crew at Alto cannot wait to go back. 01/04/2012

Enjoyed the venue and service here very much. The meal - 3 courses for $75- was well prepared, well presented and well served. The night lights of the city and the revolutions around the inner restaurant building was really enjoyable. Glimpses of the kitchen are fascinating as your table slowly moves around the outside of the building. We ordered two vegetable dishes as we usually do - these were generous and tasty. They were larger than expected and we really only needed one. Very pleasant evening. 11/09/2011

Had an absolute ball! Food was sensational (but not cheap). Service faultless with the best view in Canberra. I would highly recommend it. And try the soufflé! 03/05/2011
