$$$$•Italian•4.5(236)Sam Miranda had a visionary plan for his ‘Field to Fork’ Produce Garden which was inspired by his childhood. He wanted to not only produce premium varietal wine but also bring a touch of home to the winery restaurant. Remembering back when he handpicked vegetables with his father, Pop Miranda and helped make fresh mouthwatering traditional Italian dishes. Sam has created a holistic sustainable produce garden, including herbs and fruit trees which he has integrated with local resources, such as irrigation water which comes from our local King River to assist with producing the best harvest for the restaurant.

- BBonnieVictoria •1 review5.0Dined on May 10, 2026Stunning location rich in history. From the entry onto the property to the service, the food and the amenities especially if your travelling or visiting with children make a great day out!. As we sit inside the restaurant viewing through the large glass wall to wall doors, Heritage trees with great canopy coverage and garden beds provided an added outdoor area for kids kicking a footy around and active toddlers adjacent to the our door playground with a sandpit and digger. Outside dinning under the veranda or umbrella area with close proximity to the play ground. The service was just amazing catering to food allergies with ease, difficult picky toddlers, growing teenage boys to senile elderly parents. Incredibly patient, very receptive and only to happy to help. Any question was answer with a wealth of food and wine knowledge. We really loved being able to see the kitchen and watching the chefs prepare own food. The mother's Day menu was top tier, with such an array of choices. Everything was hand and home made; The quality and freshness of the food was outstanding worthy of a Michelin Star!More infoBrown Brothers Restaurant$$$$• Australian• Milawa•4.8
