When Dietmar Sawyere and wife Nicole restored and reopened the iconic Berowra Waters Inn in 2007, he did Sydney a great service; in the 1980s this was the first Australian restaurant to gain wide international acclaim. Today a trip to the Inn is still a magical experience - without road access, apart from the lucky few who arrive by seaplane... More

Had the Degustation menu at lunch time. Getting to the Restaurant was great - catchingthe restaurant's own ferry to and from. The food ws lovely - but I started to feel that they were tryingjust a bit too hard - there were so many flavours on each plate that it all got a bit too much. Still, I do not... More

We went with friends on a beautiful autumn day and spent the best part of five hours enjoying a very long degustation lunch. The location is every bit as spectacular as the photos suggest. The lunch opened well with the signature Chilled vichyssoise, with oscietra & salmon caviars, and beignets of Hawkesbury oysters...which was wonderful, and continued though around 10... More

Yes, it is a bit out of the way, but then getting there is half the fun. A beautiful winding bush drive, a ferry crossing in the comfort of your car, a short boat trip and you are there. No parking hassles. Stunning water and boat views. We had the degustation menu with matching wines. The flavours were stunning and... More

The food is absolutely great but the staff were bordering on the clueless side as far as knowledge of the food/wine goes. For that amount of money I'd look at other options first. More
