Best Casual Restaurants in Woollahra

We have just had the most magnificently tasty Sunday lunch at Margaret. We didn't leave a mouthful of any of the three courses. It took a leisurely two hours which we thought was perfect timing, not rushed but we were not waiting around either. Everything was absolutely delicious. When we are in Sydney from London we now try to eat at Margaret. Previously we have eaten at Rockpool and the grill. Margaret is bright and breezy by comparison. The staff are friendly and efficient. They want to talk about the food and are very helpful with making choices from the extensive menu. The food is outstanding. For us the portions were perfect with wonderful imaginative complex flavours. We went fifty/fifty on the duck breast and grilled ocean trout and both were fantastic. We even had room for a dessert. Out of curiosity I chose the souffle pudding. I would never have thought of putting pine nuts in a dessert but it gave a great contrasting texture. The souffle was really more than I needed but I sacrificed myself and finished it. One staff member confided that although they worked there it was their favourite place to eat. We agree.

A great restaurant with upmarket décor, fantastic food and wine menu, and great service. An unique Italian restaurant experience.

Wonderful food, wonderful wine list, wonderful service. Very enjoyable! I would be a regular if I lived in Sydney!

The menu has changed since our last visit, two of us decided to order the fish and chips as sounded yummy with the mushy peas. Both received generous serves however 2 of the 3 fish fillets on each plate were like rubber, and the mushy peas were served cold. Avoid this one. Otherwise the venue is good for a group and the drinks service was great.

On a warm evening this is a magical bar. The view as the sun sets is Insta worthy. The atmosphere is relaxed and the service good. Note this bar doesn't open, without notice in inclement weather.
