This is one of those places where I call a hidden jewel, as it is not easiest to get without a car, and the building itself is quite not if the entrance is on the side and is not very obvious and once inside, The view from this restaurant is absolutely breathtaking.

I had a lunch here on a Friday, and although the place was not full, it was certainly very busy, with most tables occupied by large groups (we were one of only two tables who occupied only two people). We ordered a dozen oysters, the Kingfish Sashimi, roast shrimp, snapper cake and a side of chips.

My friends and I ordered 4 types of oysters (Clair de lune, port stephens pacific, moonlight and oakley island), the grilled scampi, snapper pie and chargrilled swordfish with the hand-cut chips as a side. Between the three of us, this was the perfect amount of food.
The oysters were exceptional in the sense that they were incredibly fresh and flavoursome. However, out of the 4 that we ordered, the clair de lune was my favourite. Even though it was small, it had a nice creamy texture, leaving me craving for more. The scampi, on the other hand, was underwhelming. I felt that the seasoning of the dish overpowered the natural flavour of the scampi itself. But that is because I usually prefer th...

Went for dinner on a Saturday night with a group of 5. Amazing seafood restaurant, with great views of Pyrmont, would recommend to anyone.

Started off with the Oysters and these are some of the best I've had, super fresh and very clean. Main course you need to try the signature dish, Snapper Pie - served with a sweet tomato and mash potato. Aside from the amazing pastry the highlight is how well the snapper fillet tastes in the dish. You know it's snapper, the smell is appetising and it's incredibly succulent (a note on the portion size is that it's very filling & you can share this meal. I advise you eat a light/fresh entree for the palate to make this main for digesti...

The staff is not the most attentful and you have a few times to place the order so you can close the restaurant. The oysters were fresh, but not amazing or anything. The entree I tried was the Kingfish Sashimi. Very well done. Perfectly balanced sauces and the kingfish were beautiful and fresh. In any case, the highlight of the evening and a nice surprise was the Snapper Pot Pie. That was absolutely heavenly. We all agree that it was the best court of the evening and the journey is worth it. This is a must, and you can easily share the cake with someone else, even though you may not want, because it's so good! And I do not say that something is good.
Good cocktails, but only a limited selection of only 4th good wine list with interesting range. All dishes made very well, really enjoyed the King shrimp as an entree. Recommend the Clair de Lune Oysters, Small and Creamy. A good price as a whole for this type of restaurant and a beautiful view of your meal.
