I'm a big fan of Garfish having been here a number of times over the years. They serve an excellent range of beautifully cooked seafood. The venue is across the road from Manly Wharf so has lovely views over the harbour. This is especially the case having dinner in summer as the sun sets over the water. Along with a selection of staples such as a shared seafood platter and a lovely fish pie, ordering at Garfish involves selecting a fish which will be cooked in a specific way, an accompanying sauce along with a side. This range of fish changes depending on what is available and the more popular will sell out during the night so be warned that you may need to call on your second choice. This...
The happy hour deal here is amazing $6 for house wine or spirits, from 4 6 PM everyday. We came here for drinks after walking around Manly during the weekend and managed to get a table in the bar section with a great view of the harbour. Our server was attentive and friendly, and we really enjoyed her service. Upon her recommendation of the bar menu, we ordered the salt and pepper squid. Unfortunately we had given another server our order and he misplaced it, which ended up in quite some time before us sorting out the issue. Our server apologised profusely even though it was not her fault to begin with. The squid was really tender and tasty. It came with chilli jam and instead of overpowerin...
This really is an excellent restaurant. Not my first visit but a return meal this week confirms my opinion of it. Bright and airy; overlooking the beach near the ferry wharf.<br/ <br/ A very well thought out menu with excellent seafood dishes, plus enough meat dishes for those that can't eat seafood. Good wine list and interesting cocktail list. Plus they do a very reasonable prix fixe menu for $40 Monday to Friday. Two courses and a glass of wine.<br/ Excellent and knowledgeable staff.<br/ <br/ Photos show the following dishes:<br/ <br/ Smoked mackerel tartare with celeriac and burnt butter emulsion. Best fish tartare I've had.<br/ Fish and chips. Using rockling, very moist.<br/ Boar...
We were a group of 7 and arrived 20 min late to our reservation. Even though the place was packed, the staff were nice enough to accommodate us in good seating. We ordered a variety of starters and fish from the menu. I had the signature fish pie and my partner had the signature fish and chips. Those were ok, but were a little bland. We both felt a bit off after the fish and chips. The wine and beer selection were great and the general atmosphere was great.Hady Taha

Settled in Garfish for lunch after reading great reviews about its seafood. Restaurant certainly lived up to expectation! We ordered:<br/ <br/ Crisp fried zucchini flowers filled with snapper king prawn<br/ Wood fired Moreton bay bugs<br/ Fish and chips<br/ <br/ Best meal we had in Sydney so far. Fantastic meal in a lovely and clean restaurant. Shoutout to the service staff for the fantastic service.
Absolutely delicious! <br/ <br/ This is the second time we are here.<br/ Oysters, zuchinni flowers and calamari for entre, all fresh and done well. <br/ <br/ Snapper pie for main. It’s a must try at Garfish. Rich, creamy and filled with chunky snapper fillet. Can’t go wrong with that. <br/ <br/ Drinks list also extensive, perfect for long lunches.
Such a great place and location in Manly. Book in advance for a table by the window looking over the harbour. Service is always immaculate and the menu is so good. You can’t go wrong with any of the fish and they always pair it with a great wine. If you arrive early you can sit in the alfresco bar section and have a cocktail too.
Visited recently for lunch on the weekend and the food is sensational. The oysters are really fresh, the snapper pie had a delicious puff pastry and was filled to the brim with cream and snapper, and the cauliflower gratin is to die for. Will definitely be back!

Seriously good seafood and one of the best gluten free menus around from entrees through to the beer list. Well worth a look at any of their 3 locations around Sydney, however Manly has the views!!
Had the fish and chips and it wasn't too bad at all. I reckon it could be a bigger serving given the price. A good place to take your family out for a nice dinner.
