South Australia’s best steak restaurant is back on top, taking out the top gong for the fifth time in six years.
Mayura Station’s The Tasting Room in Millicent has been named “2023 Best Steak Restaurant in Australia” at the prestigious Restaurant & Catering Hostplus Awards for Excellence, organised by Restaurant & Catering Australia (R&CA).
It was announced at a glittering awards ceremony in Sydney earlier this week.

Located on-farm at Mayura Station, The Tasting Room is a boutique facility approximately 10 minutes from the Millicent town centre and approximately 45 minutes from the City of Mount Gambier.
Leading the charge, head chef Mark Wright has curated a meat lovers dream menu, offering a set-menu featuring a four-course dining option for $160 per person.
Children’s meals are also available for anyone attending with the full family, for $50 the two-course meal features a Wagyu main along with a dessert.
The menu is prepared by utilising the best cuts if full-blood Wagyu Beef available on the day and fresh, seasonal produce.
Speaking to Tasting Australia, Mark said serving a once in a lifetime experience to their customers is a gift like no other.
“Every time I prepare a steak for our customers I feel like a kid in a candy store, I love seeing the marbling and I have full confidence that every piece of beef served will the give the diner a memorable experience,” he said.
