    Wonderful and fresh oysters washed down with a great selection of wines... And the location & view is unbeatable!

    If you're after fresh oysters, and seafood dishes, you can get others with same offerings at 1/2 the price. But dining with the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Opera House and the sea for company, this is it!

    Stunning views, fabulous fresh small rock oysters and great wines easily fills an entire afternoon or eve. Pricy but worth the experience!

    Fresh Oysters are divine. Sprinkle it with lemon juice, add a little sauce, eat, and slurp the juice.

    The oysters are over priced (better to pick up your own at the Fish Markets), but the fish dishes are lovely. You also get some greens, which is unusual these days.

    Been here 5+ times
    My favourite place for lunch in the most beautiful city in the world. The view is to die for.

    We've got the best table out in the sun and close to the water. Food and beverage are definitely overpriced - you are simply paying for the view to be honest

    For some reason, your first drink takes a VERY long time to appear. But don't dispair; subsequent drinks appear almost instantaneously.

    Beware of the sea gulls as they are very aggressive and attack your food when possible.

    No respect for their name - no knowledge of what makes a great oyster, the service is abysmal; staff have no knowledge of the wine lists or the food! Great setting, pitiful food, awful service.

    Pricey, but it's to be expected in the most touristy part of the city.
