The region is well known for its vineyards, brewhouses and distilleries, so you can be sure of some great wines, beers and schnapps in Jindabyne restaurants. These great drinks help to wash down fabulous local food, where the emphasis is on quality ingredients, good simple cooking and a fun environment. The atmosphere is casual and relaxed but this town does get busy, so make sure to book a table here on Quandoo to beat the crowds.

The Alpine Diner on Snowy River Avenue is typical of the ambience you can expect in Jindabyne restaurants. There's a huge choice of Australian-style dishes, including pizzas, burgers, short ribs and organic Gerringong wagyu sausages. It's not all about meat, though, there's a good choice of vegetarian dishes, including a delicious sweet potato and chickpea burger and homemade gnocchi with spinach, tomato and zucchini. Pasta is another strength at The Alpine Diner and the salt and pepper squid is a highlight for seafood lovers.
