Golden Felt Lounge pairs a seasonal, produce-driven menu with the warm, convivial atmosphere of an offline poker venue. The restaurant is designed around the Table Edge concept, creating a seamless flow between dining and card play.
Our kitchen is guided by a simple idea: great food, like a great card game, is best when shared around a table.
Our kitchen celebrates the best of Australian produce, changing the menu with the seasons to capture peak flavour. We work closely with local growers and suppliers to source fresh, high-quality ingredients. The menu reflects the diversity of Australian cuisine, from coastal seafood to rich, earthy flavours.
Every dish is designed to be shared and enjoyed in the company of others, echoing the social nature of a poker table. Plates are generous and meant for passing, encouraging conversation and connection. The kitchen balances comfort and sophistication, offering familiar favourites with a contemporary twist.
The dining room is designed to feel both intimate and open, with sightlines that connect the restaurant to the poker lounge. The Table Edge design creates a continuous horizon that draws the eye across the space. Warm materials like timber and felt create a tactile, welcoming environment.
A few plates that capture the range and character of our seasonal menu.
Tender octopus, lightly charred and served with a smoky saffron aioli, fingerling potatoes, and fresh herbs. A nod to the Mediterranean influences in Australian cuisine, with saffron echoing the venue's primary accent colour.
Fork-tender lamb, slow-roasted with rosemary and garlic, served with roasted root vegetables and a rich jus. A hearty dish perfect for sharing that reflects the restaurant's commitment to comfort and flavour.
Crisp-skinned barramundi fillet with a citrus beurre blanc, sautéed greens, and a delicate herb salad. Showcases Australian seafood at its best—light yet satisfying, ideal for a pre-poker meal.
A rich, dark chocolate tart with a cherry compote, echoing the venue's deep cherry accent colour. A decadent finish to the meal, with cherry notes that tie into the design palette.
The Table Edge design uses a continuous line that runs through the restaurant, visually connecting the dining area to the poker lounge. The line is echoed in architectural details, furniture, and even the plating of dishes. This perspective places guests at seated eye level, creating an intimate, focused atmosphere.
Warm timbers, felt textures, and a palette of saffron, petrol, and eucalyptus create a space that feels both refined and relaxed. The colours echo the Australian landscape and the tactile nature of the poker table. Lighting is designed to flatter both the food and the faces of guests.
Golden Felt Lounge is designed for a seamless evening: enjoy a relaxed meal, then move to the poker tables for a friendly, face-to-face game. The restaurant's menu is crafted to be enjoyed before, during, or after poker play, and the shared design language ensures a cohesive atmosphere throughout the venue. No online poker or digital gaming—just the social, physical experience of cards and cuisine.
