Flaunting a strikingly gorgeous dining room and a premier Australian menu, Neil Perry’s Rockpool Bar and Grill restaurant is a jewel in Sydney’s dining crown. Sourcing ingredients from Australia’s premium producers, and making a point of dry aging the beef themselves, the fare predominately focuses on wood-fire grilled meats and seafood.

The four types of beef – ranging from Wagyu rib eye to skirt cuts – provides the perfect opportunity to carve into Australia’s best, and the team encourage a shared dining experience for a comparison of different cuts. The seafood selection too, offers delicious dishes.

You’re almost certainly going to find a delectable drop to match your meal from the (bordering on ridiculous) 3500-deep wine list, although it may put a small dent in your wallet. The connecting bar provides an idyllic setting for a post or pre-dinner drink, or a more casual dining affair.
