About Maestro

Maestro is a modern Australian restaurant and bar on Level 1 of Holiday Inn & Suites Geelong, at 40 Ryrie Street. Head chef Kiran Chauhan's menu is built around sharing plates, handmade pasta, grilled and dry-aged meats and local seafood. For private events there are several settings to choose from. Smaller groups can take the Green Room or the Media Lounge, while larger parties can take over the restaurant, MBar and the event spaces together. Social events here include birthdays, engagement parties, anniversaries, family get-togethers, cocktail parties and long lunches. The team can set up a formal seated dinner, a relaxed shared feast or a standing cocktail party with canapés. Weddings are hosted too, from small dinners to larger receptions, with cocktail-style receptions in the bar and event spaces or seated dining in the restaurant. Menus run from shared banquets and set menus to canapés and late-night snacks. Corporate functions use the same light-filled rooms, which have AV equipment and complimentary wifi. For a simple set option, the sharing-style Feed Me menu is two courses for $72 per person. Gluten free, vegetarian and vegan diets are catered for, and the restaurant has disabled access. Guests travelling in for an event can stay at the hotel on site.
