El Cheeky Flamingo — Restaurant in Adelaide

We had possibly the worst experience at El Cheeky Flamingo. After booking the venue months in advance for 7pm, we arrived and they firstly said we were supposed to be in at 9:30 and later said they had us booked for another weekend, despite us having the booking confirmation. They did the bare minimum to pull some tables together for us, but then proceeded to be incredibly rude for the remainder of our stay. Two staff stood near our table the entire time, whispering, staring and complaining about us. They threatened to kick us out because we had a large group which threatened their outdoor liquor license, despite their error and the fact we had booked inside. Further to this, they blamed us for the mistake and told every potential customer that came by that ‘we rocked up when we were supposed to’, despite us having our booking confirmation. Although bar staff were lovely, we will not be returning to this venue and encourage you to also take your business...

I hosted my best friend's hens party at El Cheeky Flamingo, and it was absolutely perfect! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make the night special. The atmosphere was lively yet intimate, the food was incredible and the cocktails were next-level. They were super accommodating with our group and made sure everything ran smoothly. My best friend had the best time, and we couldn't have asked for a better venue. Organising the event was super easy and stress free. Rachel the events coordinator was on the ball and responded to emails super quick! Jarrod the bar manager was very accommodating, flexible and was willing to go with the flow of the night. I'm so keen to go back just for a couple of drinks and some arancini balls (the 4 cheese ones were AMAZING). I don't drink very often either but ended up having 3 Flamingo Colada cocktails!

I highly recommend this place for any special event—you won’t be...

Staff booked us at the wrong time and then blamed us for the error. They moved us outside and then threatened to kick us out for having more people than we requested which was untrue. We further overheard staff complain about us to other costumers stating that it was our fault for coming at the wrong time and was the reason that they couldn’t seat other costumers. One of the female managers was also very passive aggressive towards our party. Will not be coming again. Sadly bar staff...
