We chose this place at the last min without much thinking, but was very happy with did. The meatball pizza and the angelhair prawn pasta were amazing! A nice place to, although it was quite loud as there is a pub right next to it sharing a common are with Customs House
Beautiful Location. We has a great night with a group of friends at the bar. After a fantastic Dinner. Best Pizza in town. Good wine List . This restaurant has been around over 10 yrs and they know their stuff. If you’re around Circular Quay area this is place. Reasonable price for a location such as this.
Went here on a whim and loved it! It was an early dinner, we ordered the Sirloin steaks rare and medium rare and both were cooked perfectly. Our host was friendly and although the food took a while to arrive, it was worth the wait. Loved it!
Had a lovely lunch here after the Dendy. Food was really good. Vegan options really tasty. The mushrooms with hazelnut side is so worth coming back for. Plenty of carnivore options too that looked amazing. Service friendly and warm. Definitely coming back
Tasty prosciutto pizza and fresh, nicely dressed salad. Decent wine list, though a little pricey. Pleasant service and an outdoor eating area which was surprisingly calm and quiet, and a nice way to enjoy a warm evening. Very convenient location before catching a ferry.
Service was good, however, ordered angel hair pasta had zero flavour and the sauce dried up. Ordered tosho pizza, did not taste like beef but even so, meat smelt bad, had to take it off the pizza.
When you can’t get 4 simple take away coffee orders right you are not off to a great start. Team that with rude service and next time I’ll cross the road to grab a coffee. There are so many places more deserving of my patronage. It may be holiday season but they were very quiet- should have seen it as a sign.
We turned up for dinner at YA because my family and I were aiming for another restaurant in the building but couldn't get reservations. I had high hopes because the restaurant itself is in a great location ground floor of the Customs House and has a cozy appeal to its dining arrangement. It was a Monday night so not terribly crowded but prob 4-5 other tables at 7:00 pm. We ordered our entrees - bread, arancini, and tomato/mozzarella salad. The bread was four grilled pieces of decent bread with olive oil and balsamic for dipping. Tasted good but not worth the $7 for only four small pieces. The arancini were well made, had a nice crispy shell and delicately soft interior with risotto and mushroom. The aioli was a good combination as well. Four pieces to the order. The tomato salad was good too and came in a portion big enough for all four of us to have a decent amount. For mains we ordered the spinach ravioli, squid ink pasta with prawns, and I had the entree portion of chili prawns. My kids clearly won that one. The ravioli was well made and tasted good. My prawns were awful. The texture was mealy and soft. The spice was there, but the mealy texture and the offputting aftertaste made my dish really unpalatable. The same aioli that was on my arancini was on the plate as well and it had congealed more to a puddinglike consistency. $26 for four small shrimp. The squid ink linguini was also oddly cut. Perhaps my understanding of linguini is different but the linguini was not long and strandlike but each small piece was about 3 cm long. Again the dish was adequately spiced from a chili perspective but the shrimp were he same as what I had in my dish - mealy, soft, no char and a bad mouthfeel. I have to question whether or not the shrimp for both dishes were thawed or just left out too long based on their texture and feel. I also would not advertise this dish as a "prawn" dish because the shrimp were at most two bite morsels. At the end of the meal we couldn't stand for dessert. I was also a bit put out by our server. We are American. We understand the tipping rules. Everywhere in Australia we ate that had good service the majority of the places we added 10% as a gratuity. YA was the ONLY place at the time of our EFTPOS that asked us to add a tip. No one else in two weeks asked for a tip. In the end I am always saddened by a bad dining experience because I see it as a missed opportunity. It's a fantastic setting. I understand Circular Quay is a massive tourist trap and that the costa of operating an establishment are high. Our dinner all in was $199 AD. This place has a lot of promise and can do so much better. But Great cooking starts with great fresh ingredients and spot on prep. Neither was display at YA. My advice - stick to entrees. maybe consider the pizza. The Shiraz they have from Barossa by the glass is good and reasonable. But I definitely did not leave there satisfied with dropping $200.
I have been here multiple times over the last 5 years, each time they don't disappoint. The pizza is consistently good and recommend ordering the "surprise" pizza - I have never been surprised in a bad way although also good to give slight direction as to your favoured ingredients.
When your paying $10/drink you'd expect a smile from staff. Want a beer? It's stored under the coffee machine, therefore, waiter has to wait until barista has finished making coffee. You'd also expect the limes would be sliced and ready to add to drinks. My local pub can do much better.
