Verandah Restaurant & Wine Bar - Sydney

What a nice place! good location, good food and great place. We had lunch yesterday and we had a lovely time. I should mention that the manager (the only male) was very pushy, pushing us to order wine and appetizers (always with a great smile). He was keeping on coming back to us asking the same questions. Same problem when we did not want any dessert. The overall experience was good but I think this has to be said to all potential customers.

Met friends after work on a Friday it was the start of Vivid, so was exceptionally busy. However, the sharing plates are generous and delicious.

Local and maybe had high hopes. Renovation is great, however after 2nd visit just not sure if we would go again unless some improvements. Staff friendly but not very well trained (we had to ask table to be cleared) and a number of wrong meals delivered . Not all drinks in the menu and had to wait 20 mins for cocktails. Menu also very limited (lunch)

Love this venue and the staff are fantastic, particularly Arthur and James. I have only been there twice and they already remember my name. The kid's menu is better than the genera menu. It is trying to be a high class restaurant, but it's not working. The bar food is really boring; where are the interesting nibbly bits if you are just going for a drink? The a la carte menu shows the chef is on the right track but not with the bar menu. By all means be a high class restaurant, but don't have people sitting on the verandah and expect them to pay the prices you are charging in the restaurant. There are two distinct areas, outside and inside. Arthur is fantastic and looks after everybody. This will be my go to place for a drink and a nibble. Just get your act together and realise there are two distinct and different areas.

We had our Christmas party at Verandah Bar last Friday and I cannot rave enough about the place. The food and service were great. The staff were absolutely lovely. Saskia, the events organizer was so efficient, professional and made organising this event effortless. I highly recommend the venue for any occasion. Great ambience and a very cool restaurant/bar. Do try it!
