Your Dining Experience With Monte Vista

“Our dining services are designed to add excitement, variety and social opportunity to our resident’s lives”

Our Kitchen

Monte Vista’s kitchen is always bustling to serve our residents with tasty culinary delights.
Our meal services have ticks in all the boxes; from ensuring the meals themselves are of high quality, prepared by qualified and experienced kitchen teams using premium recipes, to creating a dining atmosphere that you won’t want to leave, we’ve got it all.

Choice makes life interesting, and varied, and gives us opportunities to look forward to each and every day. We enjoy making choices in almost all areas of our lives – so we thought “why should dining be any different?”, and set about doing something different in our restaurant which would set us apart from almost every other residential care provider.

Our Meal Services are made for you

We are very proud we go the extra mile with our dining services where we offer an off-the-menu choice of daily main meals. Having this choice of meals adds tremendous value to the everyday lives of our residents, and we simply can’t resist the opportunity to delight their taste buds.

Meal Service for no additional charge

Note that a choice of meals is not normally offered in residential care (or is a premium ‘added charge’ service if offered at all); however, we provide it as part of our standard service for no additional fee. In fact, we quietly hope that all aged care providers will catch on to this and do it for their clients one day.

“I liked the smiles and happy people I saw on my initial visits to Monte Vista Residential Care. I could see by the positive feedback from people who were already staying here and loving it that this was a place that people were happy to live in. Monte Vista has good food, a caring staff and an attractive garden. It is warm and friendly and gives peace of mind to the family who can take a break from worrying about me. I feel safe at night and don’t have to worry about falling, cooking, my health or bills.”
