Bennelong Sydney Reviews
Excellent Venue and Food
Excellent view and excellent food. In fact, it was one of the best restaurants we’d dined in on the trip to Australia. Sommelier was extremely friendly and attentive; can’t say the same about other servers. In fact, we never figured out who was s
Great experience
We enjoyed a spectacular drinks and dessert at Bennelong. It is a treasure. Located beneath the Sydney Opera House with incredible views and amazing service.
Truly an incredible experience.
Great staff, great views, great architecture, and great food! All of the entree's were delicious (my table got one of each). The mains were great- I'm not the largest fan of duck so it was a little chewy for my tastes but I got the fillet a
Not what I expected from The Bennelong
We phoned to book a window table the time and day were irrelevant, all we wanted was a window table for our 36th wedding Anniversary and while that preference would be added to our booking, we were told that seating was allocated on the day and there
Worth the visit
This is an great restaurant in an exceptional setting! The menu has a lot to offer and is uniquely presented. I personally enjoyed the mud crab, raviolo, and pavlova (though I believe the menu seasonally changes). The prices are high, but in my opini
World Class view, food and service
Went on the 23rd of August. The service from beginning to end was amazing. The staff were genuine, sincere and very friendly. The location and interior of the restaurant was sublime!!!! The food was absolutely delicious. Beautifully set on the plate
Just Beautiful
Popped in the opera house to get out of the rain and wandered into the restaurant. Fine foods at every level. Despite not having a booking we were offered a 5 course tasting menu, a lunch time 2 course menu inc of sparkling wine, a la’carte menu or
An absolute highlight of our trip to Sydney - brilliant food, great location, fabulous serviceand friendly staff
Wowser. We really enjoyed our dinner at Bennelong. As locations go, being inside the Sydney Opera House complex with views across the bay to the Sydney Harbour Bridge is probably up there with some of the best in the world. The menu is centred arou
Dinner 3 course menu
What an exquisite experience. Had the Australian Marron to start, followed by the Maremma Duck and the Chocolate Velvet dessert to finish. Everything cooked to perfection. My waiter Maxime was very attentive.
Don't look at the price, and book this restaurant
Don't look at the price, and book this restaurant immediately. The food, the decor, the ambiance, the service, the drinks, literally everything here is tip top of the line. The only downside is you will be walking out of here a lot more poor t
Don’t miss this one.
We were in Australia for 16 days and this was the best food during the trip. The atmosphere is fabulous with amazing views of the Sydney harbor. The service is excellent and the wait staff is extremely sensitive to timing if you are attending a per
Average
Great location, but average dining experience that is not fine dining. Very underwhelming for what you pay for. Didn't appreciate being charged $13 for water. Wouldn't rush back.
Traveling to Sydney has been a bucket list item for a long
Traveling to Sydney has been a bucket list item for a long time. Advice from friends told us that dinner at Bennelong was a must. And it did not disappoint. We were able to get a reservation prior to seeing the opera that night (Cinderella) and had l
They should change the name from Bennelong to Bennaverylong
They should change the name from Bennelong to Bennaverylong ... time for our damn food. This place is trying to be a fine dining Michelin establishment and the staff just doesn't get it. The chef should realize his dream will never materializ
Full disclosure, it is pricey.
But . . . Location + food + service makes it all worth while. This is a great special occasion treat and did not disappoint for our anniversary celebration. Lovely. The sommelier was helpful and gently guided us into some great wine. Next time I am i
Wow, Wow, WOW! What a lovely welcome we received when
Wow, Wow, WOW! What a lovely welcome we received when checking in for our reservation! We were a bit early and opted to take time for a beverage in the upper bar. The wait staff was welcoming and very polished. I opted for a Cloud of Passion: a stra
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
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
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 amazin
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 phot
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
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 s
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
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 reputat
This was our best meal by far in Sydney.
We took the pre-fix meal prior to seeing a play at the Opera House. The views are amazing, and a big part of the experience of dining here. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable. We started with an infused orange vodka drink that was delicious.
Since there are only 5 stars I will give them that.
Had a wonderful Sunday Jazz lunch. Food, atmosphere, service, drinks, music all top notch. To top it off you are in the Sydney Opera House. Best. Experience. Ever.
I believe I may have found my favorite restaurant in Sydney
I believe I may have found my favorite restaurant in Sydney - an immaculate blend of superb service; great flavors; and stunning views. I visited for a solo dinner which did require a phone call ahead of time versus the website. One small issue here
Great experience.
Fabulous setting. Superb food and wine. Generally decent service.
Connect with users posting reservations for Bennelong Sydney
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Bennelong Sydney. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
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

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
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
* GallantAnswer60, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* GallantAnswer60 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to GallantAnswer60 for any questions Peter may have as GallantAnswer60 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* GallantAnswer60 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 GallantAnswer60 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, GallantAnswer60 receives the $200 reward which is credited to GallantAnswer60'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.
