Maxwell Restaurant Wins Two Chef Hats

We are delighted to announce that Maxwell Restaurant has retained its two Chef Hats at the 2022 Australian Good Food Guide Awards (AGFG).

The national awards, set up in 1982 to recognise exceptional chefs, are presented for the standard of a restaurant’s food alone – with a focus on ingredients, taste, presentation, and the techniques used. The results are compiled from anonymous dining by AGFG inspectors, and the reviews sent to them from the public. 

Our Head Chef, Fabian Lehmann said: “We are delighted to have received two Chef Hats at the recent AGFG awards. It is testament to the hard-working team here at Maxwell and the exceptional quality of the food that we use from our local, South Australian food producers”.

General Manager, Jeremy Maxwell added: “A huge congratulations to Chef Lehmann and his team on another well-deserved award win! The feedback from our guests about our multi-course tasting menu has been incredible and we are so pleased that the AGFG judges agree!” 

Congratulations to all our fellow AGFG winners and everyone in the industry having survived what has been a challenging year!

Our award-winning restaurant is open for lunch Friday, Saturday & Sunday with sittings from 12 noon and dinner service from 6:30 pm on Saturday evening. We exclusively offer a  multi-course tasting menu priced at $130 per person.
