Reviews Summary
Eleonore's Restaurant at Chateau Yering offers a fine dining experience within a historic setting, praised for its elegant ambiance and some well-executed dishes. However, some diners have noted inconsistencies in food quality and service, with concerns about value for money and outdated decor.
"Wonderful dinner! The flavours were well balanced and light, ingredients fresh and curated. Yering wine, excellent!
The portions were perfect, had the three course with a side and we cleaned our plate. Visited for valentines and the team made the night feel very special. Mussel and crab entree 11/10. The pork was nicely cooked, recommend. We were seated in Phil’s section and he was an absolute delight."
Elizabeth Gao
"Dining at Eleonore’s Restaurant is a must. Their two- and three-course menus offer a fantastic selection, with every dish bursting with flavour and beautifully presented. Every dish we had was well-balanced and delicious - kudos to the chef for the passion they put into each dish to make it shine.
The venue exuded romance, and for those who appreciate high-quality food made with locally sourced produce, I couldn’t recommend it more highly.
A special thanks to Phil, who truly went above and beyond in looking after us. His attentiveness made our experience even more memorable."
Annie Sam
"Have been going to Eleanore’s Restaurant for our last 2 years Christmas work parties. Yesterday we tried the lunch for a farewell to a colleague. Service has always been fantastic, the staff go above and beyond. The food is always sensational and the presentation is amazing. We love the atmosphere and the chairs are super comfy. The ambience is cozy and you can hear everyone at the table without having to shout. Having coffee by the fireplace in the lounge after lunch just topped off our experience.
No doubt we will be back again for our Christmas party and we can’t wait."

Yarra Valley Travel Guide
Chateau Yering is a stunning historic homestead style hotel that was given new life in 1997 to make it a five-star hotel. It’s something from another world, with period fittings, incredible service, and little toy cats used as ‘do not disturb signs’. It makes the hallways look equally adorable and hilarious at the same time.
