Soda Rooftop

Soda Rooftop brings a polished, contemporary energy to Glenelg, Adelaide, with a menu that favours generous flavours and grazing. Here, South Australian icons meet international accents, creating an easy rhythm between briny freshness, slow-braised comfort and bright, herb-driven lift.

Setting the tone, Coffin Bay oysters arrive alongside nahm jim and shallot, offering a bracing hit of lime and spice against pristine salinity. Mushroom arancini come cloaked in parmesan, ready to be dragged through truffle aioli - crisp, creamy and quietly decadent.

Heftier appetites gravitate to beef shin brasato pappardelle, its ribbons tangled with Tuscan kale, toasted almonds and a lick of ancho chilli oil for warmth and smoke. For a centrepiece, the roasted lamb shoulder serves two, offset by poached quince and an orange peel gremolata that releases a citrus perfume and sweetness made for sharing and lingering conversation.

Whether it's a round of snacks or a meal built for the table, Soda Rooftop leans into simple pleasures done well. Book ahead, gather good company, and let the experience fizz!
