Tetsuya Restaurant Sydney
$$$$ 
Sydney CBD Tetsuya's is renowned for its full-fledged Japanese fine dining experience with delicious signature food and quality service. The entire restaurant is a distinctively built Japanese-styled building, offering serene aesthetics within Sydney's CBD. The portions are small, but almost every dish tastes thoughtful and memorable. Perfect for any fine dining enthusiast, it's a restaurant you could add on your re-visit if you are okay with splurging.
Haidilao Hotpot Darling Square
$$-$$$ Darling Square Haidilao is the global hot spot for hot pot, and Sydney's Darling Square location is no exception. Mostly known for its innovative dining experience with noodle dances and robot servers, this spacious hot pot haven serves up at least 8 different types of broth with various ingredients and freedom in making your sauce. Haidilao sets the standard for an unrivalled hot pot experience in Sydney, making it a top pick for anyone seeking one of Sydney's best hot pots.
IIKO Mazesoba Restaurant Darling Square
$$ Darling Square IIKO Mazesoba is the first of its kind in specialty brothless ramen. My familiarity with the owners, who are true food enthusiasts, guarantees that their mazesoba and classic Japanese dishes like karaage and chashu will be crafted with a dedication to quality and flavour. While I prefer ramen over mazesoba any day, the handmade noodles and premium ingredients used in IIKO's dishes have deepened my appreciation for mazesoba. Their dedication to innovation is noticeable as their menu continuously introduces exciting new specials throughout the year.
Ice Kirin Bar Sydney
$-$$ Sydney CBD Ice Kirin Bar is your go-to spot for late-night Asian gelato cravings in Sydney CBD, with daily closing times of 10 pm. I recommend their uji matcha, oolong peach tea, and Japanese yuzu sorbet, as they did a fantastic job of capturing the essence of each ingredient without being overbearingly sweet. The daifuku add-on is highly recommended for an even better experience, as it introduces a wonderfully soft and chewy texture to the smooth gelato.
Mapo Gelato Newtown
$-$$ Newtown Mapo Gelato in Newtown is an absolute gem for gelato lovers in Sydney. It's known for its incredibly creamy smooth gelato that comes in both classic and innovative flavours. Their caramello (sea salt caramel) and mango flavours are must-tries, but the real joy comes from exploring their fruitier options like how I came to discover watermelon and honeydew gelato exists. Their daily experimentation with flavours means you'll always find something new to try!
GetSashimi Restaurant & Takeaway Bondi Beach
$$-$$$ Bondi Beach Strategically located by the iconic Bondi Beach, we're fortunate to have every seafood and sushi enthusiast's dream come true. Get Sashimi boasts a massive selection of sashimi, including tuna, salmon, toothfish, and John Dory, all freshly sliced to order. The range doesn't stop there; it extends to a proper sushi experience with options like paradise prawn, abalone, smoked eel, and so much more.
Oncore By Clare Smyth Restaurant Barangaroo
$$$$ Barangaroo Oncore by Clare Smyth is located inside the upscale Crown Sydney in Barangaroo and gives you a visually stunning dining experience. Everything from the views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge to the interiors and ambience scream sophistication. Whether you go for the set menu or pick something off the a la carte menu, it's one of Sydney's top spots for high-end dining.
