Staff very attentive.Ambience n view perfect.Recommend crab n prawn ,Tandoori trout . Dessert not to be shared chocolate n pistachio even tho I don't eat desserts but sometimes it's a must..
Great for special occasions with spectacular views of the harbour bridge and opera house. Done outside for the best views . Highly recommend the pork belly . Try their paired wines for dessert too!
Cafe Sydney is the quintessential, humble yet fabulous rooftop dining delight. Book ahead (a month or two) for a terrace table. Culinary experts. It’s fun watching the chefs @ work in the galley
Scallops , crab cake with maybe the best prawn I've had in Sydney thus far, tenderloin for mains, and the lemon curd pannacotta as the coup de grace. Excellent restaurant .
Have to admit - I wouldn't normally pick this type of place to eat - but damn they do an unreal steak . Also, take a special friend there and woo them with the views of the most famous vista in Sydney.
Watch the sun set over Sydney Harbour on the balcony . The goat cheese and beetroot tart entrée and fried banana peanut brittle dessert is fantastic.
9/10 experience. Great view , excellent food and wine (tappanappa tiers Chardonnay is the one we got, $200 approx. very good!!!) the only thing from it not being 10/10 was the service...!
Beef wagyu carpaccio was beautiful. Views are great no Matter if you are seated inside or out. Save some for desserts
Beef tenderloin , barramundi , sydney rock oyster , seared scallop , double chocolate & lemon pudding . Every dish tastes perfect and the view is amazing ♡
Views are amazing. Salted caramel martini is AMAZING. Don't be suckered in the foie gras tortellini though, its not that great. Not a bad place to eat for a special night
Very impressive views of the harbor and coat hanger. Very pricey but worth it as the food is outstanding. I ordered the steak . So much good.
Come early for your dinner reservation and have a few cocktails . Or just come for the cocktails . The food is awesome but it's not cheap .
Amazing view with great Australian centric dishes. Book ahead to request a great outdoor table for the best view at sunset .
Try the tandoor salmon - pickled cucumbers , coriander and raita make it a fantastic main with lots of flavor
Great scenic views with a outdoor seating place
Outstanding food, amazing atmosphere and great service! the view is just priceless..
Great spot to celebrate a special occassion . The swordfish main is incredible and any prawn dish is generally fabulous.
The view . The service. The cocktails and wine list . The beetroot and goats cheese tart is undeniable.
Fantastic pork belly ! Unfortunately understaffed when we went so the service wasn't great. My mum found a rubber band in her veggies and they only offered to replace her dish. No other compensation...
What a place! Amazing view and atmosphere! Food is great and service is excellent!
Great food and super view . Fab service. Top vibe. All 'round excellent!
Amazing views and modern Australian cuisine. Also a great cocktail men.
Very popular cafe with a view over Circular Quay. If you are not a local, try using your hotel concierge to reserve you a table
Excellent views , friendly staff & delicious food
Beautiful food. Great service & good wine recommendations. Try the steak .
Has the best food and the view ! Love the Crisp pork belly !
come for the great food and the awesome view of sydney harbour
The view is great, especially if you book in advance. The food didn't leave as much of an impression, while the service felt quite officious.
Very good but small food. Vegan menu is nice but lame dessert offering. Surely they could have gotten more creative than fresh fruit & sorbet .
Tente pegar as mesas do lado de fora. Book a table in advance.
The rib-eye special is unbelievably awesome! 450 grams of tenderness and juicy.
Great food and even better view . One of the best in Sydney
The seafood nage is a very good, light dish.
The pork belly is spectacularly paired with peaches
High quality food in an excellent location
Pork entree was awesome!
The view is AMAZING! Sit outside and eat - you need to make rezzies. And if it's cold, they have blankets for you to wrap yourself in.
Consistently good but the value is in a table with a view
Great views and service is top notch. Food is always good too.
Ask for a table outside , best view of Sydney
Awesome place!
Jew fish is to die for. Highly recommend the desert platter also. View is incredible, service could be improved.
Make sure you get a reservation at weekends and dress smart.
Make sure u eat the steak rare!! It melts in ur mouth!! And gnocchi is just to die for!!
great food. make sure you remind them about your table otherwise you will be slammed and a few hundred dollars ligher in the bar
Waiters frantically try to upsell. Very manky. Otherwise food great and view good
Our GM, Andrew Neilson rates Cafe Sydney as one of his favourite places thanks to the view and the food.
The view and the steak !
Cocktails good but you're only really here for the location. Food is average and poor value. Most of staff look depressed/angry. There are better views than this of Syd Habour (minus motorway too).
I'm glad we were ignored by the wait staff , because ECQ has better cocktails .
Amazing place! I fell in love immediately as I stepped in. ❤️ - Gaik Igitkhanian
Friday specials beef pie is wonderful. ohh it's served with mashed potatoes on the side! - Ms Julz
Great venue for a business function - Paul Wallbank
Nice venue and the lamb rack was great. Don't forget about the awesome complimentary buttery bread aka croissant.On the $$$ side. - mark c
The collective menu is amazing!! We had the slow roasted lamb which is incredible!! - Andrea C
Great space and friendly staff. Try the Watermelon Cucumber Caipirinha or the Vanilla Passionfruit Pisco sour - Alicia Taggio
Towering tasting plate for two is terrific! Food service is swift and the kitchen is quality. Top place to stop, before a show at the opera house - Martin B
