Jack LimAugust 24, 2014Wonderful and fresh oysters washed down with a great selection of wines... And the location & view is unbeatable!
Richard FooFebruary 16, 2015If you're after fresh oysters, and seafood dishes, you can get others with same offerings at 1/2 the price. But dining with the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Opera House and the sea for company, this is it!
StéphanieMay 27, 2017Stunning views, fabulous fresh small rock oysters and great wines easily fills an entire afternoon or eve. Pricy but worth the experience!
YulFebruary 5, 2015Fresh Oysters are divine. Sprinkle it with lemon juice, add a little sauce, eat, and slurp the juice.
Czar TJanuary 28, 2011The oysters are over priced (better to pick up your own at the Fish Markets), but the fish dishes are lovely. You also get some greens, which is unusual these days.
Ms JulzMarch 24, 2011We've got the best table out in the sun and close to the water. Food and beverage are definitely overpriced - you are simply paying for the view to be honest
My favourite place for lunch in the most beautiful city in the world. The view is to die for.
Nigel MitchellJuly 12, 2013For some reason, your first drink takes a VERY long time to appear. But don't dispair; subsequent drinks appear almost instantaneously.
Jennifer HoSeptember 26, 2014Beware of the sea gulls as they are very aggressive and attack your food when possible.
FreshJanuary 1, 2014just popular because of location and the view. service and food is questionable.
123 456November 15, 2012No respect for their name - no knowledge of what makes a great oyster, the service is abysmal; staff have no knowledge of the wine lists or the food! Great setting, pitiful food, awful service.
