Staff were really friendly and checked in after our mains came out. It&#39;s a small thing, but that kind of attention makes a difference. They were on it all night without hovering.

A lovely quiet spot just off the main beach. The staff are genuinely friendly and make you feel welcome. It&#39;s a comfortable place to sit for a while, whether you&#39;re meeting someone or just need a break. The coffee is consistently good, which is always a plus.

Been coming here for years. Their Angus burger is always huge and juicy, and you can&#39;t beat the price. Staff are quick and friendly. Solid spot for a burger night.

Been coming here for years, and their cappuccino is always spot on. That creamy, smooth texture is exactly what I&#39;m after every morning. It&#39;s the one thing I know I can count on.

The little Peruvian market up front is such a nice touch. Grabbed some interesting snacks and a drink while waiting for our table. It really sets the scene before you even sit down.

The red curry is spot on. Had it with a glass of the house Pinot Noir they suggested - a surprisingly good match that cut through the richness. That kind of thoughtful pairing is what keeps me coming back.

Katie the manager is so lovely. She remembered my name from last time, which is such a nice touch. Service is genuinely warm here, makes the whole meal feel easy.

There are some interesting dishes on the menu. The flame prawns n chicken are both very yummy. The meat in goat curry is really tender, better than the lamb one. Unfortunately   many dishes on the chicken curry menu were not available, giving only limited choices. Overall a must try Indian restaurant.

Quick bite before the Opera House. Good spot, close to Circular Quay. Food was fine for the price.

This is our second experience and we were not disappointed. From the moment you arrive, you know you are special. There are only a small number of tables. Each set with linen tablecloths, plates and cutlery, perfectly positioned. The host acknowledges you in gentle tones and ushers you to your table. He explains the menu, small, but perfect. The wines he recommends are French, of course, but they are matched to each course, and each is sublime. In the background there are sounds of French jazz or classical chamber music, but  never intrusive. The food, naturally, is authentic, well proportioned and delicious. The most romantic dining experience in the whole of Sydney.

This restaurant is perfect for hosting friends and family, with a lovely atmosphere and a wide range of food options to choose from.

Been here a few times. The servings are huge, you won&#39;t leave hungry. Food looks good on the plate too. Solid for a relaxed feed with mates.

Been coming here for years, and the soft shell crab ramen is my go-to. The broth has that distinct seafood flavour with just a slight kick &ndash; it&rsquo;s always consistent. That&rsquo;s why I keep coming back.

Came here for a special dinner and they were super helpful with my dietary request. The staff made everything easy and relaxed, which was nice. A solid spot for a treat!

Mumus is right there on the main street near Wynyard, super easy to find. It was packed when we went, glad we booked. The vibe is really lively, great for a group.

Tried the Singapore-style crab on fermented crumpets for breakfast. The crab was packed with flavour, and the crumpet had a nice tang. A solid, hearty start to the day.

Perfect spot for a quick lunch. Their gluten-free options are solid, especially the mixed entr&eacute;e. Everything came out fast, which is exactly what I needed on a busy day.

Food was clever and tasty, staff were clearly working hard. The DJ gives it a unique, energetic vibe, which is fun if you&#39;re after that. A bit loud for a proper chat, but that&#39;s the point I guess.

Grabbed a quick sandwich here before my train. It&#39;s right in that QVB arcade, super handy for the station. Sandwich was fresh, exactly what I needed. A bit of a queue though.

The shared meal was pretty good value for the quality. The venue itself is quite nice, though the portions were a touch smaller than expected. Still, a decent option.

Been coming here for years, always appreciate the wheelchair access.

The pear liqueur they bring after dessert is such a lovely little gesture. Really sweet finish. And that homemade trilece cake? Honestly, it&#39;s the star. So soft and creamy.

This place is a local gem. Their poached chicken sandwich is a favourite, and the gluten-free bread is actually really good. Solid wine list too.

Came in for lunch and got the chicken katsu sandwich. It was huge. The chicken was super crispy and the salad inside had mint and apple which was nice and fresh.

The coffee&#39;s got a proper kick to it. Perfect spot to catch up with a friend over a flat white and a croissant.

The free samples outside are a nice touch. Staff inside are friendly and helpful, not pushy at all. We tried the signature beef noodles - the broth was rich and flavourful, really hit the spot. A solid, no-fuss meal.

Spacious spot in an office lobby, nice and airy. Got a flat white and a croissant, the coffee was solid. Good for a quick stop, but it does get a bit noisy when it&#39;s busy.

Been here a few times. The falafel plate is always crispy and fresh, can&#39;t go wrong. The mixed plate has good flavour too. Hibiscus tea is a nice change, pretty refreshing.

Food quality never changes, but the area we book for circular quay and prefer window seats is the reason you choose hurricane at circular quay instead on ryde area. Unfortunately, we get outside sitting, not near windows, even we request it.

The Khao Soi was my pick. The broth was so aromatic, and the chicken was incredibly tender. I really appreciated how fresh the herbs and pickled mustard greens tasted. It felt like a wholesome, balanced meal. My only note is that I wish there was a bit more of the crispy noodles on top for that extra texture.
