The Botanica Vaucluse

Best Known For

48-hour slow-cooked Wagyu brisket, black garlic soubise, confit onion and tarator.

An experience for the senses where the valley meets Vaucluse, The Botanica on Laguna Street presents a leafy dining oasis to feed the soul inside and out. A relaxed restaurant space creates ambient dining through walls covered with plant murals and the odd peacock, along with dusky pink chairs and wooden table settings complemented by ornamental touches. Using produce from local suppliers, The Botanica's farm-to-table menu serves wholesome and organic dishes like starters of prawn toast, fermented chilli and fried curry leaf, or charred squid, lentils, koji and wakame. For a memorable main affair, delve into wood-fried spatchcock with baba ganoush, salsa macha, dessert lime and sides of charred asparagus and shoestring fries with chipotle aioli; before a dessert of deconstructed pavlova.
