Restaurants in Adelaide

Adelaide has a wide range of restaurants, and meals often come in cheaper than those offered by other state capitals. Restaurants have been grouped into three different pricing categories:
Expensive (over A$50)
Moderate (A$20 to A$49)
Cheap (up to A$20)
These prices are for a three-course meal for one with a half bottle of house wine or equivalent. They include tax, and whilst not the standard in Australia, tipping is often done in recognition of good service (10% or more).
