We booked Cafe Sydney for our last night in Sydney and were not disappointed. The food was excellent and with decent portions we did not go home hungry. The location is great and from our balcony table we had a clear view of the Harbour Bridge and could even see the Opera House poking out from behind the other side... more

We met up with some friends and had dinner at Cafe Sydney. We had booked well in advance so got a "window" table although the windows were pulled back and we were actually at the start of the raised area from the outdoor seating. Fantastic view of the Bridge and Opera House. It was very dark and quite loud which... more

We had dinner here and really emjoyed the food, the view and the overall ambience. We did not have a booking but waited for 45 minutes in the bar until we got a table, and that was on a Saturday evening. I would highly recommend a visit to Cafe Sydney for a great night out. more

We chose Cafe Sydney as our last dinner stop prior to returning home and enjoyed the experience. We loved the food - delicious! We had grilled scallops as our entree, and ordered the grilled Queensland prawns with tarragon gnocchi as well as another fish dish off the special menu. We topped things off with Strawberry Trifle with Strawberry Sorbet AND... more

It's a beautiful spot with stunning views of the harbour. There is even a separate vegetarian menu. But the bill was $350 for three people and we only had one bottle of wine. Granted, there are places you can spend that much per person, but then I would expect more from the food. It was good, but not memorable. We... more

Booked this restaurant for my birthday when I was in Sydney with my boyfriend. I wanted to try somewhere else where the food was meant to be amazing, on the same standards as the restaurants like Quay and Guillaume at Bennelong, that i thoroughly enjoyed, but we wanted to avoid the overly posh places and prices that go along with... more

I fell in love from the start but then the food came and I was in heaven. Wagyu steak is to die for. Scenery is spectacular. As a tourist it is perfect but even Sydneysiders can't resist the charm. Perfect for special occasions. more

I visited this with friends after hearing all about it. It was very disappointing, The view is not bad if you are seated at the front but we weren't. The service was very slow although they were not busy that lunchtime. The food is average and mine was a hot dish but was only luke warm when it arrived. My... more
