There are many reasons why people take the time to drive out to the Perth Hills. Firstly, the drive itself is worth it! As you leave the city in your rear vision mirror and approach the tranquillity of Australian bushland, the scene is set and relaxation mode takes over. A whole new world awaits. Winding through the lush greenery you begin to feel alive as the head clears. Boutique stores, pubs, cafes, galleries and walking trails catch your eye. You’ll be tempted to wind down the window to breathe in the pure crisp air and rejoice in the sound of birds chirping. It would be hard to imagine topping this but then there’s the destination. Let’s take this to the next level! Set amongst 50 acres of native bushland in Mount Helena is Amaroo Retreat and Spa. Oozing country charm and spectacular views, the retreat is home to The Lounge semi-fine dining restaurant.
Join us in 2023 for an experience you won’t forget at The Lounge Restaurant. We are delighted to offer a new menu to tantalise the taste buds. Created by our passionate new head chef Tyrell who brings with him an expert understanding of the culinary world. Enjoy lunch or dinner for only $70 for two courses or add a delicious dessert for an extra $15. And for a sneak peak of the new menu, how does this sound? Shark Bay Jumbo Prawns or Confit Duck Leg for entree. A main meal of succulent Harvey beef eye fillet with cauliflower cream, potato gratin, charred onions, baby carrots and jus. Or perhaps Barramundi served with romesco, silverbeet, leeks, saffron potato and finished with a dessert of Chocolate Torte with crème fraiche and raspberry gel. All paired with our great selection of fine wines and signature cocktails.
We are open for Breakfast from 8am ~ 10am, Lunch from 12pm ~ 3pm (Wednesday ~ Sunday), and Dinner from 6pm ~ late.
Our kitchen is open from 6pm ~ 8pm, Sunday ~ Thursday, & 6pm ~ 9pm Friday and Saturday.
