    BonAppétit

    Here at Fish Café we are honoured to be recognised by people’s choice as Best Seafood Restaurant in the 2013-2014 and 2015-2016 NSW Seafood Excellence Awards conducted by the Sydney Fish Markets, winner Savour Winner Award for Excellence 2014, winner in Official Great Aussie Pie Competition 2015 and award winner of the Sydney Metropolitan Consumer Vote Award 2016.

    We believe that “simple is best” when it comes to cooking seafood and all of our fish is cooked with respect, in the best manner to retain its full texture and taste.

    Our seasonally changing menus are designed to offer a selection of our consistently most popular dishes together with a continually changing list of  daily specials based on market availability of seasonal, lesser known and hard to get varieties of fish, all complimented by a selection of our own freshly prepared sides and accompaniments.

    We love our fish and we hope that you enjoy your dining experience with us as much as we appreciate having you as our guest.

    Please do not hesitate to ask any of our friendly staff for advice on particular species of fish, or if we can do anything to make your visit to Fish Café even more enjoyable.

    We welcome enquiries for group bookings and special occasions, please contact us or click on the RESERVATION box located at the top right hand corner and one of our friendly staff will contact you to confirm if seating is available. We strongly recommend you make a tentative booking in advance to avoid disappointment as we are normally booked days in advance.

    *Prices are GST inclusive and are subject to change without notification.
