I had a wonderful experience at Kyah and Blaq when my wife took me there for my birthday. The staff was very friendly, but it seemed they were a bit short-staffed on the night we visited. It took a while for our drinks to arrive, but they kindly gifted them to us as an apology for the wait, which was a smart move. Because of that, they earned a 5-star rating instead of a potential 3-star for the slow service. The food was fantastic; I started with the tartare, which I loved, and then had the rump with chimichurri sauce—absolutely delicious. The next day, we returned for breakfast, and it was equally delightful!
My husband and I recently had the pleasure of holding our entirely coeliac safe wedding reception at BLAQ Bar and Restaurant at Kyah Hotel with approx. 100 guests. Everything served on the night was not just coeliac safe but able to be easily amended for all other dietaries. Across our guests we had vegans, lactose intolerance, soy intolerance, anaphylaxis to shellfish you name it. Everyone who required an amendment got one or an alternative. Executive chef, Mate, executed fried chicken, salt and pepper squid, pastry, GF soy sauce, all the things that make a little coeliac happy. When we asked them to create the gluten free cake which they’d once had as a special menu item, it was no hassle. I have loved Blaq and Kyah for a long time now, dining there several times in the lead up to our wedding. We won’t ever stop visiting because not only is their food striving to be safe for all dietaries, it is absolutely delicious. Oh and so is the drinks list! The wine on the night was a huge hit with our guests, which of course we knew it would be because we’d picked them ourselves based on our tasting at the restaurant. We walk away with fond memories of our entire wedding planning journey at the assistance of Sam, and in particular Mate and bar manager Jess. BLAQ at Kyah will forever hold a special place in our hearts.
Highly recommend. Eaten here four times now since it opened consistently great food, service and vibe. Also, super kid friendly! The same staff are on every time we come too, so I assume it’s well managed and a great place to work Check out their garden out the back if you get a sec chickens, herbs, vegetables galore.
