Nice location and good vibes pub in Surryhills. Ordered some pasta and starters. Salmon was so delicious! And King prawn had beautiful flavour : Happy with meals however the staffs were not friendly at all. Bartender seems like not pay attention to customers even wasn’t busy, served me wrong drinks and just walked away. Drinks variety was amazing but customer service wasn’t great ;
This place is huge! Heaps of levels, areas and rooms to sit with different vibes. I assume many of them can be booked out as well, so would be perfect for gatherings & events. The location is great too. The decor is fun and really quite unique. Staff are friendly and all around a pretty good crowd. It can get quite busy at peak times and special occasions.
I love the Dolphin, went for a big ANZAC day here 2 years in a row and it has a great atmosphere even when nothing is on. The pizza here are delicious and they have an extensive wine list to choose from. The RSL sandwich for ANZAC day was unreal. Both upstairs and downstairs offer so much both with bars and toilets and all different seating areas. Glad I live close to The Dolphin
The Dolphin hotel has long been in Surry Hills and a popular venue for those that love a good meal and a drink or two. It is open 7 days a week for all day dining from midday til late. You can book or generally be pretty lucky with walk-ins. We often sit out the front on their long tables but there’s also an indoor dining room, and outdoor space on the terrace upstairs as well as private spaces for functions. We’ve recently been twice as we enjoyed it so much and have thus sampled lots of their food. The food ranges from quite upmarket dishes to pizzas and burgers and you can eat any of the food in any dining space. The indoors is more of an upmarket setting and a little more casual outside. We began with a few small plates to share; San Danielle Proscuitto aged 18 months, served with melon, as well as the whipped ricotta dip with Vincotto, roasted grapes lemon and olive oil. This pairs nicely with the fluffy foccacia and a glass of one of their natural wines or cocktails. Their margarita is excellent, a gin and tonic or even a negroni. Moving on, light dish that can also be eaten as a starter, and one we quite liked is the grilled octopus with salsa verde, marinated nicely with green olives, white beans and herbs, and the octopus was nice and soft and had been prepared well. The king prawn linguine was another great dish, beautifully cooked, flavoured with the Crustacean XO Butter and lemon, the linguine was superb and not too heavy which is good whilst you’re out having a few drinks. We had a really nice brined and roasted free range chicken; this method of cooking ensured it stayed super moist inside with a flavourful skin, served with polenta, tarragon and greens. A decent sized dish too. The 450g T-Bone was a great option to share, the meet perfectly cook to our ordering requirements and served sliced with the bone. Just seasoned with olive oil, lemon and watercress, this is a really good meat. Whilst you’re there, it’s highly recommended you get a pizza, and our choice was the Pepperoni Du Bufala - double pepperoni, tomato, fresh buffalo mozzarella and woodfired. We ordered sides of broccolini with chilli and garlic as well as shoestring fries. We finished off with their Delfina Tiramisu, a huge slice of coffee soaked Savoiardi, Tasmanian Mascarpone, Vanilla Bean, Marsala and Coffee Liqueur provides for a creamy and delicious dessert. It really is a good space for a meal and catch up with friends.
A great local gem, with vast seating and dining options inside and outside. The street activation for dining was a great initiative and brings life to the street and corner. I’ve only been to the dolphin hotel on weekdays, but it’s always been buzzing. The salmon, prawn linguine and burrata are divine. The cheese platter pictured gave French dining vibes. Unfortunately both times I visited in the past month the pizza oven wasn’t working. There was also only one bar where drinks could be ordered, so unsure why the other one was closed off. Perfect for a casual evening visit!
Great location , the place looks good, however the team need some serious training. Food is tasty but don’t expect anything in regards to service … not even a smile from the bartender lol
The food is excellent quality, but also I really have to commend the staff for their customer service. We ordered four dishes to share between three of us. The first two dishes came then nothing came for 40 minutes. When we stopped someone to ask them what was going on, the staff member was totally honest with us and said the ticket had somehow been lost. He sorted out the missing dishes and, while we were waiting for them to be cooked, he fixed us up with some quick snacks because we were starving. Absolutely top quality service - I look forward to going back.
The Dolphin hotel is now my go to for the yummiest pizza . I have spent a couple of long lazy Sunday afternoons there enjoying the fantastic tunes , happy relaxed atmosphere and delicious traditional pizza . Salty, a touch burnt crust , sweet basil kissed tomato pizza sauce and a generous meat topping . Just the way I like it . It does not hurt that the fries are skinny and the tiramisu large and generous. I frequently visited this venue in the 90 s. It’s now low key edgy with mural like art and drop sheet chic . I dig it ! The street gutter alfresco dinning is great , a perfect spot for your sunglasses and Sunday hangover .
I had a wonderful dinner at the Dolphin last night with my family. All in there was 18 of us, and it was a very busy Saturday night - but still everyone walked away very happy. The staff, service and food was impeccable! The boys making pizza were so kind to my intrigued nieces and nephews 6/7 year olds who were keenly watching them make the pizza. Would definitely recommend dinner in the dining room.
Nice ambience but under average food for a restaurant like this. We ordered fish burger and seafood risotto, and had to say that we had much better ones elsewhere. The quantity of the risotto served was miserable and there was not even a piece a whole prawn - I believe all it had in there was one large prawn chopped in pieces with a few small calamari and four shelled mussels. Will not go back.
