PROFILED BY DE GROOTS MEDIA
Any Adelaide diner worth their rock, sea or table salt will have noshed at Alphutte at least once. Owner Leo Schadegg migrated in the 1970s after completing his chef apprenticeship in Switzerland. He built this city restaurant in 1983 and has been at the helm ever since. In these days of trendy tapas eateries, some may consider Alphutte slightly passe but a visit will remind you what dignified dining is about. The decor is a mix of the old and new (well-worn leather chairs have obviously seated a few in their time). Lofty timber beams give a chalet feel, while the wooden drinks trolley will bring a smile to your face – either for its charm or its contents. Wine and cycling enthusiasts will appreciate the corner cellar where Leo displays his support of both the sport and our local wine industry (with some nice drops from abroad too).

Alphutte - User Reviews

Anonymous:

I found it very ordinary. Been there twice (once on business and once to take my wife as it is her kind of menu). There is a good selection of food reasonably cooked and presented but to be honest more like a glorified steak house and not as good as a gastro pub that you'd find in the UK. The first time my phyllo pastry was tough and not properly crisp (shushi entree was nice) and last time I has a little pie thingy as an entree and it was over cooked. My steak was nicely cooked but the plate was piled high and those rostis on the side...what can I say ....pub food. The side plates with the black printing (advertising their awards)on then and cheap cutlery detract from what could be a very nice restaurant with very little money and effort. Will go again but only because my wife likes the choices and the prices are reasonable.review 27/07/2009
