Best Sydney restaurants located within a 5 minute walk of Town Hall Station | Ratings, Reviews & Maps

One of the most disappointing dining experiences I've encountered so far, and my best friend shares the same opinion. The staff was excellent; we received a warm welcome at the entrance and had great service from the wait staff throughout our lunch. However, the food did not meet the expected standard given the price we paid. Having dined at various other establishments, we could draw comparisons with different dishes. Upon visiting Google to write a review, I noticed numerous 5 star reviews for the food, which has left me perplexed. Am I being too discerning... The tastes were either dull or a combination of too many flavors that did not complement each other. The only redeeming thing on the menu was the additional $120 caviar and bread with truffle butter, which was delicious. I cannot recommend this restaurant; there are certainly better options within the same price range and for less.

The oysters were great, as were the salad of scampi/uni/caviar. The ocean trout lived up to the hype, but unfortunately the dining experience as a whole did not. Every other dish didn't feel refined and the Australian wine pairings felt hit-and-miss. The menu and wine pairings both need a desperate dose of inspiration and direction. Hopefully these come along with the new location.

Beautiful dining experience! The food was unique, flavoursome, fresh and delicious. The staff were knowledgeable and helpful, particularly Pak who took us on a wine journey like no other. Highly recommend the wine pairing as the wines truly complimented each dish. Favourite dish for me was the steak... I would even go as far as to say it was the best piece of meat I have ever eaten! My husband couldn't get past the Ocean Trout Confit... I think he was very close to wanting to lick his plate! Overall a wonderful experience and the perfect way to celebrate my husband's 50th!

Exceptional, subliminal food with awesome, on point wine pairing by Linh. A truly lovely experience! We look forward to dining at Tetsuya’s again after its move.

I visited Tetsuya’s before they closed for good at this historic location. Although the service wasn’t as refined compared to previous visits over the years, the food was excellent as usual. The oysters, ocean trout and scallops were the stand out dishes on the night. I’m looking forward to seeing what Tet’s has in instore for his next venture.

This is my first visit to this place. We had the sweet and sour tofu, and claypot egg plant. The sweet and sour tofu is amazing, and the egg plant is perfectly cooked so it wasn't too hard or soggy. The service is very friendly and customers turnaround are relatively quick. Price wise it is on the upper end side compared to non-vegetarian based dish, but if you're after a good vegetarian meal this is a great place! Definitely coming back.

This is the second time I'm coming here. Last time I gave it a 5 star rating. This time I'm not satisfied with giving only 5 stars. Heavenly taste vegetarian food. Do try the Crunchy Soybean rolls.

Amazing food. Cozy gateway in the middle of CBD. The staff is very friendly as well. 120% recommend if you’re looking for Asian/Veggie options.

Conveniently located a few minutes' walk from Town Hall Station and Museum Station. One of the few veg*n F&Bs opened at night and pretty crowded each time I visited. Chinese (specifically Taiwanese) allium-free, alchohol-free, and MSG-free vegetarian restaurant; almost all vegan except for a few dishes with honey. Hope they can convert to becoming fully vegan! The entrees were a bit of a hit or miss for me, but the main dishes I tried were great (not oily either). The menu was huge, some of which contained soy or seitan mock meats, and some of which featured tofu and tempeh. Gluten-free options were also labelled.

Coming back from a ski trip, trying to book a dinner to celebrate our 11th anniversary, Kakubi Shoroku came up as a first choice since we both love authentic Japanese seafood. It’s proven that we have made a good choice - authentic and nice food plus a Michelin star service.

We went here for our anniversay and it was phenomenal. The food, presentation, ambience and customer service was outstanding. We had the Lobster course and every single dish was delicious. The food is very authentic Japanese and the whole experience made us feel like we were back in Japan.

We visited this place twice and both for dinner birthday celebration. Food and service is superb and the ambience is cosy. We tried their dinner set wagyu shabu shabu as well as their wagyu steak course. All food that came is just awesome. Will be back soon!

One of the best Japanese experiences I've had. The food was simple and incredibly delicate with huge flavour. I have given 4 stars but they would have received 5 if the drinks menu was a bit better. I will be going again soon!

The quality of Myung Jang and Obaltan has declined. We ordered seafood pancakes, bibimbap, and pork ribs soup. Everything was alright, except for the doughy and thick pancakes. The service was good.

Feb 2022: Good Korean BBQ! Excellent fried chicken. Can't give 5 stars as BBQ should be charcoal, not gas. But I'd recommend it otherwise!

Excellent Korean BBQ! Staff are friendly and the seafood pancake and premium chuck eye roll are superb!

The closing time was coming, most of customers were there. The menu is so good ! But compared to general Korean restaurants , it’s nothing to have speciality.

When it comes to Korean barbecue, the portion is huge here and veggies are fresh. For lunch menu, overall their food is delicious. Just not happy with their ordering process. Wish they go back to a person taking orders.
