Food was excellent. Had a group banquet and every dish was great. Really demonstrated the sweet sour salty balance in good thai food. Nice atmosphere and great cocktails too.

Excellent ribs- one of the best in Sydney. Nice location overlooking the water at Darling Harbour. they do exactly what they're supposed to- good BBQ food- nothing more, nothing less. Full rack is $40 so not cheap but portions are huge.

It's not a fancy looking place. You order at the counter and the menu is on boards on the walls. But the food is yummy and it arrives quickly. It's good homestyle Italian with no frills.

Very yummy and tastes like real mexican. Essentially a fast food joint but there's seating. A great option for a quick, healthyish feed.

Enjoyed the degustation here and the food was excellent but felt it lacked some atmosphere. I did go on a weeknight and it was fairly quiet with some people in t-shirts and shorts at the next table so maybe my impression is a little skewed. Was cosy but not a really memorable place for me.

A really good relaxed cafe. Food consistently yum and the sort of place you'd love to be your local. But nice as it is, wouldn't drive across town for it and find the hype surrounding the place bemusing.

Excellent food and something a bit different. Dumplings are fab but the different types are all similar so no need to order them all. Great casual eating but gets very busy. Not a place for a special night out though.

One of the better choices in Chinatown for proper Chinese- not bastardised Chinese food like a lot of the places on the mall. Good qality yum cha and seafood and a more simple modern look than most of the big Chinese places.

Simply the most enjoyable dining experience I've ever had. It's not cheap but the food and sevice is top-notch and the setting is beautiful. Trip over on the boat sets the scene. Great to have first-class food but still be able to really relax.

Great traditional pizzas and good atmosphere and design. Very popular so often full which can make it a bit noisy but gives it a buzzy feel. Service was friendly. The best choice in haberfield.
