Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Balgowlah

The restaurant seats by date of booking and order of seating preference. So be sure to let them know if you want to be on the balcony (outside) or inside as this will determine whether you are in the direct sun or not depending upon your dining time. We did not know this and they were kind enough to accommodate us to be out of the sun. The food was excellent as was service. It seems expensive for a small sourdough loaf ($12) - we get bread included for free at home, 3 prawns ($32) and fish & chips ($56) hence my "good value" rating only. However, food is expensive in Sydney, the portion size was not skimpy and the quality of the fish was high. So it was worth it and we'd go back again.

Superb location. Staff and service exceptional. Food was fresh, plentiful and delicious. The live music was relaxing and so perfect for a lazy afternoon lunch. I’ll be back - Thankyou.

This is definitely worth a try our first visit it’s still a pretty new venue but I can see it’s going to be a winner the food is outstanding atmosphere and location is great the staffing numbers could be higher but I suspect the walkins drove the staff busyness as the restaurant was jampacked! We will be pack this is a new manly gem!!

Has a wonderful evening with friends for byo vinyl night. Food was delicious, service super friendly and efficient and great music. The restaurant has such a lovely ambience with attention to detail and beautiful ocean views. Highly recommend!

Gabriel was wonderful. As we’re all the wait staff. Sitting on the terrace on a full moon night was magic!
