Fab venue, fab view. Great service. All staff so attentive and friendly. No pretentiousness at all which is rare these days in Surry hills, eastern sub bars/restaurants. Delicious food couldn't fault it and cocktails and wine to die for. Loved it all and would def go back. We stayed way over our 2 hour sitting but the staff didn't mind at all and just let us get on with it. šŗ

We celebrated my godson's 25th birthday on Sunday. There were 8 of us, including a 92 year old Nanna. The staff set up two different tables for us - one inside and one on the terrace for Nanna depending on which was most comfortable for her. She chose the terrace. Fantastic!
Our waiter was Inia and was great - very helpful. We chose the banquet and it was amazing - no room for dessert and Inia offered to pack up the leftover lamb and couscous for us to take home! And our drinks/cocktails were yummy.
One and only criticism is the charge for tap water for the table. Really?
Not inexpensive but so much beautiful food! Can't recommend enough! Thanks, The Butler, for giving us such a special experience.

Some of the best customer service I have ever had in Australia. The staff are so attentive and friendly, they were able to seat us on a Saturday at the table we wanted without reservations, and were always there to refill our waters and pick up our empty plates. The food came was also exceptional! It came out so fast and was absolutely delicious. We ordered the empanadas and the vegan eggplants and both were incredible. Will definitely be back to try some of their seafood dishes and cocktails.
From the outside, this place is quite unassuming, but once you step inside, it feels like you are miles away from the hustle and bustle of the Potts Point/Kings Cross area.Ā
The food was solid, the drinks were great, the atmosphere is fun and the views are wonderful.
The garden like decor offers a different dining experience, nice city view . Food was delicious! Only got chance to take photos of 2 dishes as couldn't wait to finish others. Will definitely go back
Headed to The Butler for lunch and what an amazing experience it was. Friendly service without being overbearing. A gorgeous outdoor area with views over Sydney, and delicious food makes for a great day. Food was so good, the pork carnitas were so tasty as was the cauliflower salad. Would definitely go back when next nearby.
What I remember about Mezzaluna, The Butlerās predecessor, was that it was formal and fancy. It was there for 20 years! The vibe I got from The Butler was very different: light, airy and casual, and a beautiful outlook over Wooloomooloo and the City. We were there for a Friday lunch, and I thought it was pretty much perfect. Each dish was delicious. There are influences from Latin America and Asia.
Great location and interesting menu & interior design. Music, amazing view of the city plus 5-star service. Would give 3.5 for what we ordered, yet 5/5 for ambience and really easy-going staff. Iām happy to visit again to see if I can find a favourite dish from their South American menu:)
A go-to hang out spot in Potts Point with a unique and beautiful view of the city! Great selection of drinks, stylish decor and friendly service!
Cured Ora King Salmon: š Amazing
Wagyu Striploin : š Great
Salt & Sugar Baked Beets : š Amazing
Pandas Panna Cotta : š Amazing
Having a walk around Potts Point, we stumbled upon what was possibly one of the best hidden gems. Top quality ingredients presented beautifully on the plate with a view of the city worth soaking. The Cured Ora Salmon was divine and melted in your mouth. The Wagyu Striploin was a bit tough and hard to chew (cooked medium rare) but the marinade was delicious and I think it was good to have the baked beets on the side with this dish. The Panna Cotta was just heavenly. Everything about it was beautiful. The flavours, the textures, the presentation and is definitely a must try if youāre dining at The Butler.
Amazing food. The portions were quite small however, when purchasing a large spread of food it comes to a very decent price considering location and quality. The service was a bit mediocre with staff rushing customers a bit and not paying too much attention. #food
What a beautiful place. It's popular but still manages to feel intimate and personal, and yes the views of the skyline certainly give it the wow factor (ask for a table outside). The food doesn't disappoint either, with obvious talent in the kitchen. The rock oysters are definitely worth a look, even if you don't like oysters. The ruby tuna has just the right amount of kick and charm. The charred octopus is also done well, although it seemed to cool quite quickly, so get into it while you can if you're sitting outside. This food here very much reminds me of Pazar Food Collective for those who know it, although here the influences here are more Spanish and Portuguese. It's all delicious, so take a date and make the most of it.
Amazing food, service and view!! Three in one package, as soon as we walked in the ambiance was great. The food was all freshly cooked and came out fast, our drinks were delicious and the view was the best part. The waiter serving us was helpful and made some recommendations and was very friendly. We enjoyed our time here and will definitely be back soon!! Highly recommended this place š
First time at The Butler :) What a beautiful venue! We had a banquet menu for my mateās birthday, and every item was just delicious. The empinadas were my favourite. They have a vast drinks menu, and the cocktails my friends looked fabulous. My glass of Riesling was great too! The staff were friendly and attentive. Thank you folks at The Butler for a lovely evening.
A really outstanding dining experience in Potts Point. The food was sensational. The cocktails and wine list were excellent. The staff were also super friendly and helpful. Highly recommended plus the view over Sydney is worth a million dollars.
Gorgeous venue and amazing food, love the Iberian cuisine. Cannot fault any of the dishes - from the oysters, to the tartare, gnocchi, honestly everything was divine. Cocktails and dessert were delicious and great service from the team. Highly recommend sitting in the courtyard to enjoy the beautiful view. We were so full from our lunch, we had to skip dinner haha.
It was our first time dining at The Butler and did not disappoint! Everything we ordered had excellent flavors. Great mix of modern ibero american dishes and the server who attended us was really friendly and helpful with the menu. ā¤ļø
Thank you for a wonderful experience!
Update 18Mar22: went for a work function and had a great time. Service was magnificent and food was outstanding. I particularly liked the sashimi and the lamb. Cocktails seemed awesome as well though I didn't have any.
The Butler never disappoints! A beautiful ambience, with upstairs and downstairs seating for groups of all sizes. Iāve enjoyed dinner on the outdoor landing with city views, and on my recent visit enjoyed cocktails and dessert (the divine chocolate mousse) on the upper landing with the night lights. The place can get very busy so definitely recommend booking on weekends or for groups of larger than two š„°
Very chill vibes, great for a cute date with friends or a significant other. Service was spot on, they were very attentive and was able to give some recommendations especially if itās your first time there. They explain the menu and letās you know about the specials with the price. Food was more on a sharing type experience. Drinks were lovely as they had cute little details on the drinks. The outside has a lovely view as well when referring to seating.
