We chose the $170pp set menu and while every dish was good, it was unfortunately not worth the price. The portion sizes were quite small, and the overall experience did not match the premium price point. The service staff were attentive and friendly, but service was very slow throughout the night, especially when ordering drinks. There were also mistakes with some dishes being served to the wrong table. We've dined at many fine dining restaurants across Sydney, and at $170pp, this was the most expensive meal we've had. Unfortunately, it was also one of the most disappointing. The quality of the food was good, but the value simply wasn't there. The atmosphere and overall experience didn't deliver the level of luxury or exclusivity we expected for that price. For $170 per person, we left feeling that the price did not reflect what was served, and the experience fell short of expectations.
We had the best experience. Great service from the moment we walked through the door. Delicious and unique food and flavours. Tried fantastic South American wines. Would have tried everything on the menu if we could have. Everything you expect of an high end dinning experience. Definitely recommend and will be back.
Don't forget your noise canceling headphones. A contemporary twist on North Mexican food, this restaurant plays constant beats like a night club. The ambience, service and choices are amazing- the loud music makes it impossible to hear the server or have a conversation. The drummer and samba girls from time to time only made matters worse. The barramundi and wagyu with chamichurra sauce were outstanding. The pork T bone was tough and perhaps the only item below par. The starters were delicately done and served. If it weren't for the loud music, I might have enjoyed the relaxed service. An expensive restaurant with unique menu items catering to a younger louder audience.
Norté is an absolute standout. From the moment you walk in, you feel the energy of the space. Warm, inviting, and centred around the open fire that truly brings the whole experience to life. The food is bold, beautifully balanced, and clearly crafted with passion. Every dish celebrates Latin American flavours in a way that feels thoughtful, generous, and perfect for sharing. You can really taste the care that goes into each plate. A special mention to the incredible team. We dined with friends who own a restaurant, and the staff went above and beyond, even taking the time to walk them through the kitchen and the fire-based cooking process. That level of openness, pride, and hospitality says everything about the culture here. The drinks were just as impressive. The agave focused cocktails and curated wine list complemented the food perfectly and added to the overall experience. Amazing food, exceptional staff, and an atmosphere that makes you want to stay all night. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for something truly special.
We had a wonderful evening on Monday, the service was incredible. Lucas was the ultimate host. We had the banquet and we were blown away by the flavours and the uniqueness of the dishes. We could not pick a favourite as they were all so individually unique and flavourful. It was absolutely delicious! The atmosphere was dark & moody, loved it. Highly recommend and will be coming back asap.
