The Dolphin Hotel - Surry Hills

Once again fatty burgers appreciation society has paved the way through the hustle and bustle of a busy Saturday night in Surry hills to an absolute quality

The recent renovations give the illusion this place is very nice, however everything seems to be covered in a thick plastic - that is the entire bench

Wow! I cannot believe how kind is Luke and the Team at the Dolphin Hotel.

We went on a Friday night and the place was bustling. We were met by a lovely girl on the door who despite the bustle find time to direct us to the pubs wine bar. Glad she did we had an amazing experience. The food and wine was exceptional, we asked for recommendations from the staff as the menu as well as pizza's etc had some really interesting choices. A lovely french waitress helped us with our order and really chose well. Must mention our wine waiter James he really took us on a journey as with the menu the wine list is eclectic, down to earth and genuine really knowledgeable service. Interestingly they chill all their wines reds as well news to us was great. A real gem. Check our the wine bar look forward to going back and checking the rest of the place.

Saturday late lunch. How hard is it to get crisp, hot chips and a burger that isn't soggy on the bottom and a Caesar salad that had the smallest bits of fatty bacon I've seen (2)When this place opened the food was good and it seems to have gone down hill ever since. If you've seen what I have written in the past I try not to bag a place as I know how hard it is to put food on a plate and please people but sometimes they need to know. Get the staff of their phones (there are plenty of staff especially in the kitchen and thus my frustration) deliver meals from the kitchen quickly and with purpose and maybe a wine list that won't break the Reserve Bank. I don't mind paying but mate how about some value. Look forward to this PUB getting back on track! In the meantime, whoever gave this place a hat ,get out and revisit others that are more deserving.
