Protégé is an exciting casual fine dining eatery under the guidance of previous Eat Out Chef of the Year, La Colombe’s Scot Kirton.

Scot is proud to be part of the process of recognising young talented chefs and giving them the opportunity to put themselves on the map. In keeping with this, the restaurant was aptly named Protégé.

The idea with Protégé is to keep it casual and comfortable, working with local suppliers to keep the menu as fresh and as seasonal as possible.

The restaurant space has been designed around the central show kitchen with al fresco dining planned at both ends of the restaurant.

Protégé is open for lunch from 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm and for dinner from 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm.

    Excellent location. Fantastic staff. We had the kitchen counter which was great. My only complaint was that I left hungry. Some more thought needs to be given as to how to make the offering(s) more substantial in total.

    Sparkling was served at room temperature. Chicken was too hard prepared and most food was over spiced. We were November 2023 and that was super. Now we were extremely disappointed. Eating the second and third course left just a hot spicy feeling at the pallet.
