Description

The restaurant, now known as The Canteen, offers standard food served quickly but lacks in hospitality. The atmosphere is pleasant, although sitting on the upper level may attract seagulls. The portions are small, and the quality of some dishes is lacking. While the service is friendly, it could be more attentive. The view of the harbour bridge and opera house is exceptional, making it a great spot to relax after a show. The outdoor seating provides a nice ambiance, and the wine selection is commendable. The food quality pleasantly surprised some guests, while others found it average. The location next to the opera house is convenient, but prices are on the higher side. Overall, the bar offers a great view and experience, but guests need to be mindful of seagulls trying to steal their food.

Opera Bar and Opera Kitchen are just an extension of each other and it doesn't matter which side you are sitting, the view of two of the most beautiful iconic structures of Sydney 1) Sydney Opera House and 2) Sydney Harbour Bridge. <br/ <br/ We weren't here much for food but did order wines which were not too expensive. Ordered a bowl of French fries which looked overpriced but the bowl was huge. <br/ <br/ Fantastic to return again.

Love the atmosphere and people enjoying themselves is contagious but something needs to be done to deaden the noise.

If you’re coming to Sydney as a tourist or bringing tourists, I recommend having drinks at Opera Kitchen or Opera Bar right next to each other. Kitchen has table service and bar you’ve gotta get your own food and drinks. Its got the best view of both Sydney Harbour Bridge and Sydney Opera House! With a glass of rosè in hand, it was the perfect spot for an afternoon soirée with friends. Fish and chips were also good and the best part, they have seagull patrol dogs!

It's a bit expensive for what it is but hey it's the Opera House. I ordered some soba noodles which I assume aren't on the menu anymore because I can't find it. It was actually a great dish. It felt healthy and fresh.

Awesome ambiance , it's near the opera house food was ok but drinks are quite expensive but worth for going.We had Corona for 11 dollar, pre booking is required as it's usually crowded.
