PROFILED BY DE GROOTS MEDIA
There’s something alluring about revolving restaurants. Perched atop the Atlantic Tower, 12 stories up from the Anzac Highway in Glenelg, Top of the World Revolving Restaurant is no exception. Just off the main strip of Jetty Road and down the street from Holdfast Pier, the restaurant comes alive as the sun begins to drop low in the sky. Patrons are treated to a spectacular light show as the colours turn from yellow, to pink, to deep, deep red, and when the sun goes down, the lights of the city come out.

It’s hard to compete with views like these, but the menu, heavily laden with seafood delights, just might steal your attention away. Not overly adventurous, the dishes let the natural flavours of the food speak for themselves with mouth-watering options including lobster, oysters, scallops, prawns, calamari, Moreton bay bugs, whiting and snapper. Non-seafood lovers are also well catered for with selections of chicken, duck, lamb, pork and beef. Try the pan-cooked King Island beef fillet served with potato slices, field mushrooms, onion jam and a rich shiraz jus. Finish with a sweet dessert or one of the liqueur coffees.

Top of the World Revolving Restaurant - User Reviews

Kelly:

This was the best dining experience my partner and I have had in a long time. Beautiful food, service, view and atmosphere. I read all the negative reviews before I went and I honestly do not know what those people were talking about. I felt like a princess! Would definitely recommend to everyone I know. I ordered the salt and pepper squid and my partner ordered the 'out of the blue'. Both were delicious and we finished it off with a gourmet sundae to share. Remains a beautiful memory.review 18/08/2011

We went to this restaurant for Valentines day 2009. The views are definitely the best in Adelaide and because it is revolving there is always something new to look at, very entertaining. The service was outstanding and the staff were keen to please. We enjoyed the great cocktails. The Seafood Platter was exceptional and most definitely the best we have ever had. Thank you and we will see you again soon.review 18/02/2009

This place has one of the best views I have experienced in a restaurant and has the food to match, personally I ordered the "Out of the Blue" which was beautifully cooked. The service was fantastic, neither rushed or too pushy (although I must admit there were not many people there when I was there due to late time and day of week.) The chocolate fondue was really nice although you might expect more fruit for the price after the amount of food you get for your main course. Generally well presented place to eat with stunning views and great food, would be a good place for a function or something similar.review 28/05/2007
