Margaret is a neighbourhood restaurant at its core, but it’s also evolved into something more than that. It’s about comfort, generosity, and cosiness.At Margaret, we work with the best quality produce that Australia has to offer. Chef Neil Perry AM has spent years developing relationships with some of the best suppliers in the country. We are predominantly a seafood restaurant and are very fortunate to receive our seafood direct from our fishermen, caught sustainably and dry filleted here onsite at Margaret, so we can ensure that all that love and care our wonderful fisherman have taken is seen all the way through. The menu at Margaret is diverse and inspired by all the flavours that Neil has been collecting over his 45+ years in the industry. Margaret

Solo diner from Hobart .stumbled on this place in May and as soon as I decided when I was coming back to Sydney for a visit, this was the first place I booked! Catered to half serves also! -Focaccia w truffle butter/EVOO -Yellow fin tuna & peach -And probably the most insane carbonara ever Tried so hard to finish my tiramisu but was defeated. Wines were well priced and delish! Had very attentive waiter in hat providing nice chats and wonderful waitress who gave me great brunch recommendations! Book the bar! It’s a vibe! See you soon!

Menu is high quality with great options, food was outstanding, service was on point as were the drinks options. We had the mixed dumplings and prawn toast to start - amazing... into the half duck pancakes... so good... and then the trout and wagyu.... incredible. Finished off with Lychee Granita and the Vanilla Ice Cream...both perfect. Highly recommend Song Bird, our first time there and won't be our last.

Visited on a recommendation from a friend and was not disappointed. Flavours were delicious and the service was excellent! Particularly enjoyed the fillet with red curry flavours, Neil's flourless chocolate cake, and definitley the twist on the Old Fashioned. Will visit again, highly recommended!

From the moment we entered "Neptune's Grotto" I knew we were in for a splendid evening. And we weren't disappointed. I am a big fan of a short Menu where you want to try everything on offer. And this is exactly what was displayed. The food was superb and the extensive Wine List was deletable. Heavily leaning on Italian Wines -and rightly so - there was something for every price range. The food was superb, the décor romantic and the whole experience made me sad we had to leave. But we will be returning.
