THE PIAZZA AT MONTALTO

Open for all our guests to enjoy an abundant menu of casual starters, mains, sides and desserts – all matched with our award-winning wines.

Walk-ins are always welcome. In busy times, if a table isn’t immediately available, you can join our waitlist on arrival which gives you time to enjoy a wine tasting in the Cellar Door, explore our Sculpture Trail or relax on the grass with a glass of wine.

Online reservations for groups of 10 or more adults are now available. Children on an à la carte menu are additional.

KITCHEN GARDEN DINING

Montalto is all about sharing: food, wine and good times with loved ones; connecting with each other and to the surrounding environment. The Piazza is an alfresco dining experience where you can sit amongst Wendy’s Garden and likely see chefs picking produce, herbs and flowers for the day’s menu.

From early beginnings of a few small garden beds planted by Wendy Mitchell, our kitchen garden is the oldest in Victoria and has grown to become of the largest operations in Australia. Now at three acres, and managed by Kitchen Gardener Julie Bennett, a recent installation of 100m² of polytunnels allows delicate crops to flourish over the cooler months and brings another dynamic to year-round production.
