Located at the heart of the Walsh Bay Arts Precinct, Walsh Bay Kitchen provides the perfect pre-theatre dinner experience to compliment an evening at Sydney Theatre Company's iconic Roslyn Packer Theatre.

The restaurant showcases locally sourced produce and premium Australian meat and seafood through a light, Mediterranean-inspired Prix Fixe menu guided by the seasons.

    Had a great pre-theatre experience last night. Food is good. Mainly I wanted to mention the great service. They are very in tune with people attending the theatre and our lovely waitress asked about the timing of courses so as to make sure everything came out in time for us to go into the theatre. Very much appreciated.

    We had a most enjoyable evening with great food and theatre. The staff were very accommodating and the food was outstanding . Good value with the pre theatre menu. Also loved all the gluten free options . I would definitely go back there again

    Thank you Jane for your lovely review. We appreciate the feedback and make sure it makes it's way back to our team. I'm glad to hear that our gluten free options are appreciated as we know how important it is for GF diners to have options that are still substantial and full of flavour. We look forward to seeing you before your next night at the theatre.

    We ordered our meal and asked for a beak between courses and told the waiter when we would be ready.. once we said yes themenal which was cooked and waited probably 15 minutes was unfortunately awful and dry. The waiter apologised for the error. We paid the bill and left the restaurant.

    The vibe was great and the service excellent so the expectations were high. The food didn’t quite meet them but was good enough.

    My husband and I had a wonderful pre-theatre experience at Walsh Bay Kitchen. The restaurant had a lovely ambience, our server was attentive and personable, and the food was delicious. I had noted it was my husband's birthday and all staff made a point to wish him a happy birthday and he was offered a glass of wine, which was a charming touch. Would highly recommend and look forward to our next meal there.
