The restaurant sits on a newly refurbished/old wharf by the water. It has Sydney city skyline views (including the famous Renzo Piano building as shown in the photo), relaxing and refreshing indoor and outdoor seating, and is located close to the centre of the city !

Always the perfect place for a sunny sunday lunch - very relaxing atmosphere. Also great for a birthday dinner with friends - with local bars nearby such as the W hotel, the Tilbury hotel a short walk away .....

The settings are very stylish, new and is sure to impress.

Restaurant Name: Norton Street Leichaardt

Come and see our 'Little Italy' known as Norton Street in Leichaardt where you can eat the best Italian food in Sydney from a wide selection of restaurants, bars and cafes. Be sure to check out the "Italian Forum" designed just like the Old Italian Forums and Piazzas with fountains.....

If there is a popular Soccer game on, Norton Street is definately the place to be - during World Cup or similar times the street is closed off for street partying.

Favorite Dish: Any dish in the forum is always good - A definite unique shopping, dining and entertainment experience set in an architectural atmosphere that resembles that of an Italian Piazza.

Restaurant Name: Darling Harbour / Cockle Bay Restaurants

The food is always a 10 out of 10. I particularly enjoy the lamb skewers.

The menu consists of BBQ food such as steak sandwiches, hamburgers, lamb skewers etc. Served with fries and a salad, some meals come with a free drink.

Everything is under $10.
