Beautiful setting, food, and wine to match. Request a table upstairs (unless there's a private function) and start with a Billecart-Salmon Rosé champagne. One of Sydney's best degustations too
Amazing how Luke Mangan is so often there, welcoming guests, checking the meals are fine and meeting guests - handson professional - my three hats off to him!

Great Aussie meat pies with a fabulous sea front view. Get a meat pie with mashed potatoes and gravy on top for extra decadence. Just be sure you fend your pie from the preying sea gulls. - Fiona
