I came here with my uni friend and her wife for a catch up dinner when I was back in Sydney. I'd…read morenever heard of it but they live in Chippendale and recommended it. My friend's wife and I are both vegetarian so I knew they were guaranteed to have a reasonable number of options. Note: not really anything here for vegans. My first impression of the restaurant was that it was absolutely huge - high ceilings, a lot of space between tables and very open plan. The tables were low, long wood - really chic, sturdy and comfortable. Our waitress was excellent, very professional and attentive. It was a nice surprised as I'm not used to being 'served' in restaurants the same way I am in North America. Australia doesn't have a tipping culture so often service is lacklustre depending on the individual. Definitely not the case here. After perusing the menu for a while we decided to share the truffle pizza, potatos, squash, broccolini and beet/goat cheese salad. Everything was delicious and really decent portions. My favourites were the potatos and the broccolini but everything was good. I was definitely satisfied - could barely finish and no room for dessert. It came out at around $30pp. We didn't order alcohol or dessert but got sparking water, they offer it unlimited for $5. Really good value for a such a nice dining experience. I'd be happy to visit again.

Amazing! Came here…read morewith a few foodie friends to celebrate my birthday and it was sensational! Arrived just around 6pm on a Sunday and it wasn't too busy yet. The interior for this place somewhat reminds me of New York! High ceilings with an open kitchen that extends for most of the length of the restaurant. Still or sparking water is $2 per person either way so go for the sparkling and get some fizz in your life! ;) Items we ordered form the snacks section were: -Squid ink crackers, trout roe, cucumber $8 -English breakfast tea & toast, wild mushroom tea, gentlemens relish and bone marrow toast (for two) $14 -Tongue and cheek croquettes, picallilli $15 -'Social dog' pork and fennel sausage, green apple, black pudding, cheddar, mustard $15 From the vegetables: -Kale, chilli, garlic, corella pear, bottarga $15 From the raw & cured: -Tataki hiramasa, kingfish, dill, kahlrabi, togorashi $19 - Grass fed veal tartar, egg yolk jam, radish salad with sourdough $19 From the sourdough flatbreads: -QLD blue pumpkin, oyster & portabella mushrooms, blue cheese, walnut $16 -Lartisan 'mountain man' washed rind, white onion, smoked potato, bacon thyme $16 All this was to share among four people. All dishes were small to med servings so we got to sample everything! Loved everything that was brought out to the table. The english breakfast tea for two come out on a stand which you got to pour the mushroom tea into little tea cups - very nice. Service was excellent and very attentive. We all agreed that we would indeed be back as everything was spectacular!

Lunch at Glebe Point Diner is flawless…read more I've long been hearing rave reviews about this restaurant and finally made it there recently for lunch with my family. The dining room itself was a lot more casual than expected, but modern and inviting nonetheless with green leather banquettes, high ceilings and an open kitchen. Service was efficient yet friendly, our waitress describing their specials in detail and encouraging a shared starter of twice-baked gruyere soufflé with rocket side salad (great tip!). Main courses were just as delicious - I sampled a grilled snapper fillet atop finely sliced fennel, sautéed down into a slightly sweet yet aniseed sauce with fresh peas and baby steamed clams, while the scotch fillet also came to the table smothered in creamy caramelised onion, a million layered potato galette and well-seasoned witled silverbeet. Dessert was simple but offered pretty generous portion sizes - we tried the rhubarb frangipane tart and chocolate parfait with macerated strawberries - but I liked that their menu also offered petit fours at $2.50 a pop if you only felt like a little mouthful of something sweet (the spiced marshmallow, a particularly tempting offer).

The food does not disappoint, with the finest and freshest ingredients being used in an eclectic fusion of flavours. The gnocchi, spun so light, it melted onto the tongue, left a smouldering film of deliciousness. The special, a corned beef sandwich, was a unique take on what is in my estimation only ever attainable in New York or some of the eastern states of America and was a delectable surprise! Desert, accompanied by perfect coffees, was the perfect end, to a seamlessly delicious meal.

They made sure we had whatever we needed and were genuinely helpful without the plastered fake smiles you find on so many in customer service. The Tapas selection has an excellent variety from traditional Spanish options like the patatas bravas (so delicious) to not so traditional options (like the kiwiana whitebait fritters which brought back memories of my trips around the land of the long white cloud). Being a Spanish tapas bar I insisted on trying the churros. The dipping sauce was divine. The churros themselves were cooked to perfection but were missing that lovely hint of cinnamon sugar. The other dessert we tried was the sticky fig and caramel pudding. It was all we could do not to dive in head first into the caramel sauce. I loved it and will continue to go back whenever I find myself in Randwick.

It was busy but not super packed, we were able to get a table for two without a booking. Unfortunately the paella is a special only on some nights, so no paella for me :( We ordered a liter of sangria and it was yummy! Since I wasn't getting my paella, we just ordered a few tapas - the carpacio trout, the potatoes bravas and the pork belly. The trout was nice and tasty, the potatoes were just average, but the pork belly was cooked perfectly and the crackling was delicious! We decided to get the pistachio custard dessert, which was creme brule style. Very yummy. Overall a great place, friendly staff and a nice atmosphere.

Note: most restaurants/cafes charge $4 per person for tapped sparkling water and its an all-you-can-drink system. Charging $10 per bottle is just rude. You are re-using bottles and using tap water... I dont see where you get off charging this price.

My old office was just around the corner, and co-workers and I would relish any excuse to head here for an after work drink and share plate or two. The menu has since changed, but at the time we would return for the mulloway sashimi dressed with soy sauce, orange zest and shredded pickled beetroot - delicate, zingy and fresh. The cucumber salad with white anchovies and vinegary dressing was also a great play on crunchy and soft textures as well as fresh flavours. Some items are quite overpriced for what you get, like the prosciutto plate which was simply drizzled with olive oil and scattered with a few raw almonds and dried fig bits. The plates are only small so the cost can add up if you're not careful, so come with a nibbles-and-drinks approach rather than a full-blown dinner in mind.

My mother's 60th milestone birthday party was intended to take place at Efendy for friends and family. The event was booked a month in advance after my mother made an appointment to view the venue and discuss the menu for the event. A credit card was given. Three days before the event, my mother called the restaurant to confirm the details of the birthday party. She was told that due to renovations, the event could no longer take place. The fact that no one from the restaurant even bothered to call my mother as soon as they were aware of this fact is obscene negligence. No one bothered to call at all, leaving no possibility of finding an alternative venue. It is shameful and cruel to be so careless in communicating to your customer that their highly anticipated event can no longer take place: an event that was intended to bring joy and connection in the midst of a pandemic year when people have struggled with feeling isolated. Shame on you Efendy.
