Pomegranate

Best Known For

Confit duck leg, sautéed spinach, celeriac purée and pomegranate sauce.

Experience contemporary Australian cuisine with hints of heritage at Pomegranate on Giles Street in Kingston. This elegant Canberra dining destination exudes charm with dark wood, rustic tables and exposed beams, while an eclectic mix of knick knacks adds to the vibe; on balmy days head outdoors to sip a glass of wine on two terrace-style balconies. Seafood features highly in starters such as pan sautéed Balmain bug, braised fennel, lemon yoghurt and shiitake mushroom, or delve into zucchini and feta fritters with garlic yoghurt dressing. For the main, think char-grilled lamb cutlets, potato salad and cacik, or thinly sliced mildly spiced chicken breast, Dijon lime mustard dressing, potato and peas; finishing divinely with passionfruit cheesecake, passionfruit purée and mascarpone mousse.
