Had lunch mid May 2012 at Bel Mondo and went with the (Friday only) $35 fixed price lunch menu - (menu changes each week) and it was lovely. The price is a bargain for the quality of the food, service was attentive without being instrusive or overbearing. The wine choice bumped the overall price up but at around $70 each... More

I took a group of 14 to Bel mondo, including some US visitors. We suffered extremely slow and sometimes rude 'service', very average food (I can cook better Italian without even trying), and an astronomical bill. It's the worst eating out experience of my life. I recommend you avoid like the plague. More

In an old warehouse – full of character – light, large rooms with good views over the city. Food was excellent. Staff were friendly and efficient. More

Tough place to find, it did have a nice atmosphere, but terribly slow service. We were at our table for half an hour before drink orders were taken. That was pretty much the tone for the evening. More

I went here with my three bridesmaids when we were looking for somewhere to have our Wedding. It was a little hard to find but once we got there it was fabulous. We had a cocktail on the verandah to start with which was lovely and then they took us to a lovely table. We all enjoyed the food and... More

We booked this place after reading many good reviews. We wanted somewhere romantic with a scenic view and excellent food . We were not disappointed. Portion sizes were just right. We started off with complimentary amuse Bouche and crusty bread. Our lovely waitress was obliging and knowledgeable when asked for recommendations she even took our photo as a momento of... More

This gem has been a Rocks favourite since the late '90's. Found it on the net, looking for something special-not disappointed. Service, menu advice and especially the meals were superb and original. Easy walk from the Holiday Inn on Gloucester Walk. Ask for Harbour view seating and book in advance! More

My friend and I went there for lunch as part of Sydneys Crave festival. The waitresses were good at their job. Unfortunately the food was nowhere near as good as I thought it would be for an upmarket restaurant - I'm sure they could do much better. The restaurant is set in an old warehouse which is really nice and... More

I had a very enjoyable dinner here with a couple of family members who also appreciated this excellent restaurant. The wait staff we very attentive and made some useful suggestions. Two of our group of three tried the degustation menu,, which was very impressive, the signature dish of braised lamb, pea risotto was the standout. I would definitely come back... More

Best meal in years!! Don't walk, run to this venue. Not only does this restaurant have spectacular views of both the Sydney Bridge and Opera House but the food is fantastic. They have a fixed menu for those attending the opera; either two or three courses. I had the chicken liver for a starter and the ocean trout for the... More
