Celebrating our 23rd wedding anniv on a Monday! Not easy to find a good restaurant open. This was exceptional. Sumptuous food, hard to choose, friendly and very attentive wait staff, gorgeous setting, it was a memorable special occassion. My husband reckons the chocolate marquis was the best he has ever eaten. From the one bite I got I could see... More

Pier is about 10 minutes drive from Sydney but it is a nice restaurant with which we finished our trip in Australia. Staff was professional, food was excellent, decor was nice and rather ingenious for the floor plan it had to deal with. Not that much variety on the menu ( the same fish offered many different ways) but we... More

We went to Pier for a special celebration, booked well ahead (months) and advised that 3 of our party of 9 are vegetarian. On arrival we were allocated a very ordinary table in a particualrly noisy part of he restaurant. The first course came with foie gras - which they had no idea would not be acceptable to a vegetarian,... More

This restaurant has the best service I've ever experienced. It's from the moment you walk in they over service your table in a discreet and un-intrusive way. They clear the plates in one go without you even noticing, staff are attentive and genuine, they even change linen without you ever seeing the table (was very impressed). Food is great (if... More

Friends recommended Pier and we were all looking forward to a wonderful dinner for our last night in Sydney. The restaurant was lovely, but as soon as we looked at the menu we saw in small print that there was a surcharge of $10 on Sundays and $15 per person on holidays. Although we enjoyed our dinner with prices of... More

We went to Pier for a friend's birthday with good intentions of having a light lunch featuring their fabulous sashimi....but when the birthday girl wants to try the degustation menu with matching wines, good friends agree with alacrity. Every course was impressive, although some of the matching wines were a little novel for our palates. A special favourite was the... More

Love this restaurant. Delicious food and really good service but they should not impose a weekend surcharge. It is ILLEGAL to do so in NSW. If they do not remove it they will be up for hefty fines. More

We're on vacation in Australia and Sydney is our first stop. Friends recommended Pier for great seafood and a beautiful view. I agree on both accounts. For appetizers, the kingfish and tuna cones were great, as were the scallops and pastrami salmon.But figure on 25$ per average first course. The main course fish dishes were well prepared and tasty, including... More
