The staff service was knowledgeable , attentive & very friendly , aiming to give a great experience & it was !!!!! Will definitely be back when in Sydney again !

   A ver underwhelming experience at Squires. We booked there for our 10 year anniversary dinner specifically because of the view of the opera house. On arriving we saw there was a huge cruise liner blocking the entire view - no fault of the restaurant but no prior warning on this and no effort made to offer a different table which could have had a different view. Just note to others that the view could easily be blocked if you happen to have a cruise ship in on the day you go. They also do not allow corkage at all and so we didn’t get to drink the lovely special bottle of wine we had brought we ended up ordering wine from the menu and were given the wrong wines. The food is expensive and honestly I have had much better quality for less cost. All side orders are also charged separately and are huge portions - if you get a steak and side note you can definitely share sides. We got sides each of sweet potato fries which were nice but we left half the plate, and broccoli side which is a whole head of broccoli (I don’t know anyone who would eat even a half head of broccoli to themselves?) - also do not recommend this side unless you want a raw head of broccoli with slight chargrill outside. Unfortunately not a place I will feel the need to return to. If you happen to be there and there are no cruise liners I do recommend for a drink or small bite to eat at the bar downstairs but the upstairs restaurant honestly give it a miss.

   Absolutely terrible. The food was so bad I literally gagged after the first bite — bland, bizarre, and borderline inedible. I’m not sure what they were trying to serve, but it tasted like regret. To make things worse, the service was painfully slow. We waited ages for food that should’ve never been served in the first place. Easily one of the worst dining experiences I’ve ever had. Wouldn’t recommend to my worst enemy.

   We thought we would have to order salads and entrees but turns out the three salads sharing between the three of us was perfect. Great beer too!

   The view was great - I was pleasantly surprised by the table we got because based on the online reservation that I had tried to book but couldn't, I wasn't expecting a table by the window, let alone in the rotunda. Even the docked cruise ship still allowed us a beautiful view of the Opera House and the Bridge. We were disappointed when only one entree came out shortly after our beginners, but the other 2 entrees seems to take quite a bit longer.

    Food was decent - nothing to die for. But the view was exactly what we wanted.
