The Gantry Restaurant

Reviewed By Higuma2017

The food is absolutely delicious. Heavenly fresh oysters, nice and tender kangaroo, excellent kingfish sashimi, glorious braised tongue and fried sweetbread. The prices are high, but lower than some other inferior places. I must say that service for drinks was rather slow, but compensated by that lovely ray of sunshine that brightened our dinner: Rivera. I just wish all restaurants could have such sunny service as Rivera offers. Congratulations to the Gantry.

We were a large group there for a special 0 birthday and were in a private room. The staff were very accommodating in helping with the planning of the night and also very helpful on the night. The food was full of flavour and everyone was happy with their choice. Service was very good. Street parking is available but best to get there before 7pm unless you want a longer walk to the restaurant as there are other diners in this area. Inside Bistro 54 is very pleasant - a nice ambience. Would definitely recommend.Hi Aussie Traveller50, Thanks for taking the time to review your dining experience. We are so pleased to hear that everyone enjoyed themselves at the birthday. We will pass on your kind words to the staff. We look forward to you visiting again Kind RegardsCaryn Medak

Woodland Kitchen & Bar

Reviewed By Trevor B

A night out in Sydney to a recommended place. Absolutely well worth the visit. The food was great and the service too. I'm not a great steak eater as it often disappoints, but very happy to report that the medium rare that the chef produced was superb... seems it is cooked on a wood grill... great. Coul;dn't fault all the fare.Thank you for taking the time to review us Trevor. We are delighted to hear that your enjoyed your dinner with us - especially since you were recommended to come here. I am really happy to see that your expectations were met, perhaps even exceeded. We are known for our amazing steaks, so i am pleased we got this right for you. Next time you are in Sydney, hopefully you will come back to see us again. Until then, maybe you could also recommend us to others? We are a small business to we always appreciate the word of mouth advertising! thanks. :) Warm Regards, Jenni

I cannot fault the quality of this restaurant’s seafood. The gin cured kingfish with fresh crab was delicious as was the Pink Snapper and the Trevalla. My husband also enjoyed his seared scallops immensely. The staff were fabulous. Very professional without being intrusive. Harbour views are always a bonus. The only issue is parking which is difficult as there really is only street parking. I would recommend catching the ferry or an Uber / taxi. There is however a single disabled parking spot across the road. Very happy to recommend and to return.

Xenos Restaurant Bar Cafe

Reviewed By CherylB1510

Want a generous serving of the best home-cooked tasting food this side of a Greek grandma's kitchen, all well-presented in a friendly, comfortable setting? We have been frequenting Xenos for 17 years and have never been disappointed. A wide choice of meals to suit all tastes and the consistently high quality is amazing. My husband's favourites are the seafood spaghetti (generous serve but too good to stop eating) and delicious schnitzel while I enjoy the chicken salads - caesar and quinoa are equally good. They do a good barramundi, too. The cakes and desserts are, quite simply, mouthwatering. Xenos always delivers and Dennis and co deserve their longstanding success. At 50 years, this place deserves heritage recognition.

We had a lite lunch here earlier in the week. Service was good, Mr P had the salt and pepper squid entree which had a side of which I think was harissa. I had the scallops (3) which were cooked well and on a sweetcorn purée, it’s was ok. They had lots of meat dishes to choose from if you didn’t want seafood. Overall it was good with a reasonable wine list.

The Wooden Whisk

Reviewed By scrank

We had our typically weekly visit to The Wooden Whisk today (20/March) and we quickly noticed something was very different. Apart from one recognised and brilliant waitress that again took our order today, there was not the regular smiling faces we have been so fond of for the past 3 years. We have enjoyed having our babies in prams assisted with carrying down (and back up) the stairs, informally and kindly reserving for us half of the communal table with a quick Saturday morning phone call for our team of toddler triplets, and the ultra consistent great coffee, fresh meals and the best service bar none in the area and beyond. On asking the waitress today that we have known from there for many months if there had been a change in ownership, she confirmed today was the first day under new owners. The kitchen staff remained, the one waitress remained too, everyone else was new to the Wooden Whisk. This post is just to say thank you to the previous owners and team over the past 3+ years. You did an incredible job and made a sit down at your cafe, far more than just a meal and/or coffee. Our children learned to eat at a restaurant (not always appropriately) at your great venue. I am glad I got to say to the barista (presumed part owner), whilst unbeknownst to me that it would be the last time, that she had just served me the best coffee, I had ever had…and I have 3 coffees a day for at least the past decade! Whilst obviously sad to see you go, you have absolutely nailed it with the timing I would suggest (the downturn is indeed coming and it's likely to be sharp) and we hope your next chapter is an exciting and great one. You all deserve it. To the new owners and team, the cafe atmosphere has changed for us literally overnight so we are unlikely to be back, however, you have retained high quality kitchen staff and a waitress that is as good as the WW had in all the time we visited…and they had many great ones. We wish you the best of luck and hope it goes well for you all. Cheers,Scott Crank

Reviewed By tecp85

The food was average. For Entre we had the crostini and meatballs. Main we shared the coffee rubbed pork and garden salad. Desert, we shared the brownie and panna cota. If it wasn't half price i would have rated tonight's experience less than average. Everything was served so fast there is no way it was made to order...None of the dishes were memorable. Deserts were way below par... Could have been a really cute venue. If only the food lived up to its standards.
