Auge is one of Adelaide’s sophisticated Italian restaurants and winner of many an award. Its styled décor is a tasteful compliment to a respected menu built around superb South Australian produce. Enjoy an aperitivo and stuffed zucchini flower in the Spuntini Bar, or settle down in luxe surrounds to daily hand-made pasta such as tortellini with duck ragu.

PROFILED BY DE GROOTS MEDIA
Auge (pronounced ow-je) is a northern Italian word denoting popularity, or the desire to strive to be at one’s peak; this restaurant certainly does that, with an award crowning it Australia’s best Italian restaurant, no mean feat in a nation with as many "little Italy’s" as China Towns. The interior oozes elegance with its copper plated doors, narrow pool of water, plush leather seating and glass feature wall. A mature colour scheme of white, burnt orange and wood confirms that this is a grown-up’s restaurant, the place to forget about the kids and revel in the sophisticated calm.

A beautiful Italian menu complements the interior. At Auge Ristorante the menu is a reflection of the seasons. The menu showcases only the freshest local produce from local suppliers who have become great friends of the restaurant. Italian classics are served with style while the restaurant also creates their own unique interpretation of modern Italian food. The dessert menu is full of Italian treats such as sorbet and affogato, and the cheese menu is a connoisseurs dream, with some real Italian gems.

Auge Ristorante - User Reviews

Jenny:

Auge has set the standards of fine dining to another level. I had a group of 12 guests for my birthday, it was well organised and the service was exceptional! The food was to die for, and it was not overpriced. This is the second time I have celebrated my birthday there, but I wont wait another year to visit again!review  09/07/2012

Michial:

Although very close to the Hilton, Auge is still a place that can easily be missed by a casual visitor to Adelaide. Pity those who do. The menu at Auge is interesting and exciting; northern Italian fare at its best. My group chose the six course degustation, the highlights of which were the barramundi and the duck. The smoked pecorino which came with the cheese course was also a delight. My only criticism was that the salad accompanying the duck was slightly over seasoned. We ordered our own wine although, on reflection, we would have been better off sticking with the wine flight recommended on the menu. The formal setting suited the quality of the food. The staff were friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. Definitely worth a visit!review  23/11/2011

Nick:

As soon as you walk into the modern and stylish Auge on Grote Street, you are greeted at the door, your coat taken and the helpful staff offer you a seat either at the bar or your table. The menu is comprehensive and has something for all and the wine list is fantastic. The staff are also some of the best I have seen, for entree we had zucchini flowers and quail wrapped in pancetta – the quail was de-boned and all of the accompanying sauces were perfect. Each entree was cooked to perfection. For the main course, the duck breast and liver with pancetta were again perfectly cooked and artfully presented on the plate. The lamb was also perfectly cooked and had a great accompanying sauce. The desert was “art on a plate” with each element perfectly explained by the knowledgeable staff. This all created a perfect dining experience. 10/10 from both my partner and I. And this is big given both of us work in hospitality and are extremely critical when we go out. We couldn’t fault Auge.review  20/05/2011
