Bennelong Sydney Reviews
Wonderful experience
Delicious food we all really enjoyed. Thank you for your service and hospitality! We came back multiple times during our travels after our hotel recommendations
Bennelong, come along ….
Stunning meal in a stunning location particularly because Vivid was on and the city looked fabulous.Emrys our server was outstanding, knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. Deserves a huge commendation. Dishes were a sight to behold and delicious but this is a special occasion restaurant as it’s a tad expensive. We had a great night.
I was not over enthused
I was at the Bennelong last night for dinner. Its been 2 years since I was last there. Honestly, while the experience of seeing the lights from the bridge and harbour was magnificent I was too thrilled about the food at all. The service was great, The sommelier poured and left and for a $550 meal with a beer wine and some soft drink it was not up to parr at all. Not sure what is going on here, maybe it was the meals I chose but my friend thought the same, very very average. I wont be coming back in a hurry but I wont not go either..may just need to do select different meals perhaps
Nothing grand, over the top cost but love our server “worldly Fabio”. He made it up for the mishap booking.
The food was “meh” considering the cost. But our server “Fabio” was amazing, professional and super helpful. Go somewhere for fine dinning.
Aurorae Vivid
My wife , daughter and I took advantage of the Vivid special at Bennelong , Cocktail and snacks.Our welcome was very friendly , engaging and warm.We enjoyed a cocktail and two beautiful snacks.The service was great, so friendly. The views were amazing of the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House interior all the while the Vivid light show was taking place outside.We ate out at Quay recently, Mr Gilmore’s other restaurant and enjoyed both experiences.
Nice food, not worth the price and a little pompous
Had the $150 counter 2-course meal. Found the food very good but the staff and the atmosphere a little ‘stuffy’. Not naturally classy, a little forced. Cool venue but the counter doesn’t have much of a view (great for people watching the photos on the steps though LOL)!
Good food + Opera House + views -- what's not to love?
I wanted to take my partner somewhere special for dinner. A special location, special building and a special restaurant noted for good food and service. Bennelong ticked all those boxes on the night we visited. I booked several weeks in advance and on the appointed evening, we enjoyed the walk from the hotel to the Sydney Opera House and into the restaurant. That was really the appetiser for me -- after visiting Sydney many times, I had never gone inside the building. Right away the very energetic, if slightly overworked, maître d' got us settled into our seat near the window with lovely views of Circular Quay and the city. Service was friendly and efficient throughout the sitting and there was no rush to push us out the door once all the food had been served (it was a Tuesday night after all). Food was excellent, nicely presented, if a tiny bit pricey for what you got. But overall, you come to Bennelong as much for the venue as the food. And we really enjoyed the experience. Would I come back? Yes, I think I would.
Very disappointed. Food and service standards have dropped
So very disappointed with our experience. I have eaten here many times and last Friday was a bit of a disaster! Service was not at its usual standards. Food was very bland and did not meet expectation. Mistakes were made through out the night by staff…… became a little comical in the end. For $190 per person, I would like a table cloth too!!!! Won’t be back in a hurry.
Wow wow wow
A group of close friends and I had lunch at Bennelong yesterday and it was truly an amazing experience. We had a newborn with us as well and they made us feel so so welcomed. From as soon as we entered, it was clear the service was what was going to stand out. After not being allowed to dine at an affiliated restaurant due to a no children < 7 yr policy, I am delighted to have been able to dine here. I pretty much doubt the other restaurant would have been better. The food was simply exceptional, as I guess you would except from a 2 hatted restaurant- the scallops, duck and chocolate crackle were stand out dishes. The atmosphere and view are incredible. But what made this an experience that stands out from the rest is the service. I dine out a lot and genuinely don’t think I have had better service than what we had here. From the marvellous welcome from the maître d’, to our personal waiter, to the sommelier, to the staff serving food and to a staff member who, I am unsure what their role was, but kept coming over to check on our newborn, I could not have imagined a better dining experience for our special occasion. Particular shout out to the maître d’- such a huge asset to the restaurant and is one of the reasons we will be back. If you want a truly special experience, book here.
A memorable dining experience
I have been wanting to come in for a long time and managed to walk in yesterday. The experience I had well and truly exceeded my expectations. I opted for the three-course menu because I wanted dessert as well. At $190, given the restaurants reputation and location I thought this was fair. What I didn’t realise was that this also included complimentary bread (and was offered a second serve) and two sides with my main. Very excellent value! Great range in wine pricing as well. I was looked after Ashani who was wonderful and had excellent knowledge of the menu. It was a busy service and was attentive throughout my visit. The level of detail extended to cleaning my table during each visit and the Sommelier would always wipe the bottle so it didn’t drip on the table. Only a few small examples but this is the difference between a regular dining experience and fine dining experience. All staff were friendly and passionate. Each course, was like a beautiful piece of art. This was not playing but culinary excellence. Using high quality produce each dish was delicious and the portion sizes were just right. The sides were a great addition to the meal. My Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir were beautiful and both unique from wines I have had before. While I told myself, this would be a once off occasion before my visit, however after the experience I had yesterday I would love to come back. Highly recommend visiting, even not for an occasion.

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Bennelong Sydney at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Bennelong Sydney page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at Bennelong Sydney to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Bennelong Sydney!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
