Discover a renowned Mornington Peninsula winery

This was the first time that we had visited the restaurant since its new launch and we were not disappointed. The restaurant vibe and service was exceptional and the food was incredible! Add to that the Cellar Door prior to dinner was wonderful with such an amazing selection of wines to taste.
Well done to the Crittenden Team!

It’s always a pleasure to come to Crittenden for a wine tasting & have lunch in the restaurant. It’s absolutely delicious & the staff are just so friendly & knowledgeable.

Been here a couple of times - both to the cellar door and restaurant - and it’s great. The food is delicious, and they have a huge selection of really tasty wines. The setting itself is also beautiful

Third visit since November. Wondering if it could possibly beat the last visit. Of course it did! Amazing flavours again. So many choices. We opted for a number of small plates and will save large plates for next time. Started with oysters, finished with lamb ribs with many in between and then added dessert. Flavours just built. Who would think to put tuna with hog croquettes? A genius perhaps. And next level service. Thanks Evan. Makes every table feel like he is only there for them.

Enjoyed a beautiful dinner last week. The service was very very professional and helpful, but more than anything, really friendly, from the youngest to the most senior, quite a few people attended our table and every one of them was very warm and friendly. Of course the ambience, food and lovely wines and other drinks we enjoyed immensely. We had an incredible steak grilled on the josper and it was superb. thanks all.

My wife and I selected Crittenden's Winery Restaurant after looking at several others on the Peninsula. This was for a function of seventeen people, which meant we had the "feed me' menu. One of the reason for selecting it was the beautiful gardens, the lake and back drop of willow trees giving it such a relaxing feel.
The service was first class and the food was amazing, plentiful and extremely well presented.
Many thanks for making our day so special and our guests absolutely loved the venue and the food.
We would highly recommend Crittenden's for any function as they were outstanding.

Wine and cheese pairing was exceptional. The matchings were perfectly paired. Ben and Andrew who work there are highly knowledgeable and personable. Would recommend the experience and their wines! One of our favourites of the Peninsula.

My family enjoyed a wonderful experience of wine tasting today at Crittenden Wines. We were afforded the private tasting room for our sitting, and as a Wine Alliance member we were spoilt royally. Ben, our host was exceptional and a wonderful ambassador for Crittenden.

We’ve taken interstate and international family and friends to Crittenden a number of times over the years and we always get treated like VIPs... Whether you like Crittenden wines or not is a matter of personal taste and I won’t try and convince you why we love them so much, so this review is just about the venue and the experience. You will not be disappointed.

From the moment we arrived the service and attention to detail was outstanding. The wine tasting took us through a range of different wines, all expertly explained and curated and we ended up as a group spending rather a good amount there to start with! We sat on the covered outside deck and again the service was impeccable. A defined but excellent range of food, and the quantities were surprising in their generosity! Will definitely be coming back again in the not too distant future and I would recommend this to anyone.
