Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Truly a fabulous evening out. The food, service and ambience could not have been better. We had chosen the tasting menu 2 but our evening was made even more memorable when the chef presented us with a section of individual tasters so we could experience...more of his amazing food. Delightful staff, wonderful chef and superb food experiences. Oh wow.More

Reviewed 16 March 2022

This place was pricey. There was a four course set menu and little alternative, and it wasn't cheap. But it was a nicely balanced meal with a good blend of tastes and some original touches. The main course was either focussed around super tender Wagyu...beef or delicious white fish, but both were particularly ungenerous in size, so if you are a big eater, I wouldn't recommend this place, unless you are content to fill yourself on their delicious, warm sourdough bread. The doors were open the whole length of the room and it was lovely to sit in the evening in the nicely designed low lighting looking over the old piers and the harbour.More

First time visiting Australia to celebrate my Birthday and decided to enjoy my dinner at the restaurant. Had the A la carte as I don’t have enough time to enjoy the set courses menu. Had ordered 2 small bites but I was surprised when Chef...Rhys personally came to my table to introduce his beautiful dishes and also gave me some complimentary to try and it was beautifully plated. Must try the Veal it was so tender and tasty. Thank you Chef for amazing dinner and to the team thank you for warm welcome and taking care of me specially Leo.More

Excellent service from seating to dessert, both waiters, and waitresses alike were extremely knowledgeable about the food, wine lists and parings and were exceptionally Freud lit and catering to every need. However, some course we found to be slight too salty, for example the cabbage...or steak, a personal preference . Yet does not diminish from the fantastic service and food.More

Delighting presentations of a well orchestrated menu! One can feel the careful attention the chefs gave to each dish. Their chief satisfaction seemed to be in gauging our enjoyment of the culinary experience.

I went to the Mirazur pop-up at Gantry Restaurant in Sydney with some friends. If I could give it a "0" star rating, I would. Probably one of the poorest meals I have had for supposed "fine dining". Whilst a coupe of the degustation dishes...were tasty (beetroot with wagyu), most of them were either over-flavoured or under-flavoured. The seafood also did not appear to be fresh. The lowlight of the dinner was the lobster with vanilla. They should apologise to the lobster for having died for something so bad - all you could taste was the gritty vanilla sauce which totally over-powered the unfortunate lobster. The accompanying wine list was also poor, although the sommelier was excellent and did a great job with what he had. Staff were friendly and accommodating but nothing could overcome the bad food. And all of this for $685 per head????More

3 kids and well...life mean we don't get out so much. My wife and I have birthdays in the same week so we got the water taxi. We cruised along the river and arrived late Friday afternoon to a bustlining Pier One. A brief settle...in then off to dinner. We knew what we were likely in for but it is definitely not your standard hotel restaurant. The head chef was part of Sepia - an adventurous Sydney institution untl it sadly packed off to Melbourne. It is good to see it back- sorta. The service was seamless and the food definitely a journey with the tasting menu. We added one or two extras as we only needed to crawl upstairs afterwards to a comfortable room with a gorgeous outlook. The restaurant was light and airy and things did not seem busy or rushed. We had space and time to just be. All accompanied by a lovely chablis recommended by Ahmed, one of the most enthusiastic simmeliers I have met in ages from a well curated wine list. Something diffetent but needed in Sydney. Definitely a staycation option. Long may it stayMore

We were a table of 15 people all with the tasting menu. (On a Wednesday evening.) I have experienced a number 'tasting' menus in my life, and hands down, this was the best one I have ever had, (and I have done starred restaurants previously)...- and the Vegan tasting menu I had was both unbelievably pretty and tasty, all for the about half the price than I have paid before. My husband had the regular tasting menu and he felt the same. I highly recommend this place, and I think it would be great for any special occasion.More
