Don't let the word "diner" fool you, even though it is down a small street. It is small and casual, but the food is nothing like typical diner food! Hubby and I read good reviews and thought we would try our last night in Sydney. What a gem! Delicious good, great wait staff and fun, neighborhood atmosphere that plays blues and country type music. The meat tray with prosciutto, salami and cheese was the perfect start. Special was pork belly with whipped potatoes and beet root. Pork was so tender and I'm not a beet person, but the beet root with cream sauce was delicious. Highly recommend!
Best Italian food in Australia! This is our new favourite Sydney restaurant! We went last night and already want to go back. The charcuterie board was amazing - generous portions of the best prosciutto, cheese and homemade pickles we’ve had. And the pasta. OMG the pasta. We tried all three. Simple, quality ingredients cooked well. The gnocchi with the n’duja was perfectly cooked and the flavour was amazing. The cacio e pepe was also al dented and delicious. And the carbonara was simple the best carbonara we’ve ever eaten. Please eat it, even if just for the beyond deliciously crispy bits of porchetta!!! And the service was fabulous too! Efficient, knowledgable and friendly and not at all pretentious. Can’t wait to go back!
Amazing truffle pasta and definitely one of the best in Sydney! Service is usually outstanding, however have recently experienced unfriendly service with one of the waitresses there on two separate occasions.
This place is an absolute gem of a find. Although a little bit squeeshy for a group of 5-6 the food here was absolutely exquisite. Especially the pasta from A CHEESE WHEEL. A lot of the time we eat pastas that are drenched in sauce but with Chester? It was the perfect balance - just the way I like it!
Nice place for dating and handout with friends. The food IS amazing and everything is good.
All staffs are kind and friendly.
Highly recommended.
Fantastic and friendly service. Food was incredible. Beef cheek and truffle spaghetti was a stand out. Lovely little balcony to people watch, and great overall atmosphere and music.
Waited an hour in the rain but definitely worthwhile the waiting. We had the cheese wheel pasta and the carbonara, both delicious! Loved the deco and ambience too! Have to mention their friendly staff are all awesome!
It’s lit br0
Great vibes, cosy little restaurant with the highlights being the great customer service, and the truffle pasta being 10/10 swag lit
Highly recommend
For lunch here, I had their meat platter (Culatello Prosciutto + Truffle Salami) and my friend had their Truffle Cacio é Pepe, then we each had our glasses of Pinot Noir and Prosecco. The dishes by themselves were ammmmazing.😍 I never thought I’d be fully satisfied with our meal.
My favourite carbonara ever!! Also the truffle cheese wheel pasta is to die for. Everything here has always been a treat. They make their own pickles and chilli sauce which are great accompaniments. Tiny place so can be hard to get a table but worth the wait. Will come back any day ❤️❤️
A very small cosy restaurant with super cool staff and amazing food! I loved the truffle cheese wheel spaghetti with the chilli paste the serve with it! Their carbonara and gnocchi was pretty good - needed a bit more flavour in my opinion.
Great staff and friendly service. Food was over seasoned but tasty. Definitely worth visiting for atmosphere alone. Prawns in chorizo was the pick of the night
The perfect date night 😍 We came for the cheese wheel pasta, and it did not disappoint! The truffle was perfection, and the experience added to the ambience. Tucked away on a quiet street in Potts Point, you are welcomed by friendly staff who regularly check in to see whether you are satisfied. The drinks were fabulous and we enjoyed all the little touches, 100% recommend! 🍝
Have been here a few times and can’t fault the customer service, ambience and good food. Highly recommended with a group of friends, or a casual romantic night out with your significant other. Make sure to order the cheese wheel pasta, it’s their signature dish and it’s one for a reason.
I love the place, the service was great and friendly. The food is perfection. Every bite of it tastes tremendous. Too good to be true! Don’t forget to ask for chilli. They serve the best homemade chilli that goes with every of their dish (if you like spicy).
We had our annual small-group luncheon here in December and I can't speak highly enough of the place. Food and wine were excellent, the ambience was great and the service was exceptional. Thanks Stu and his staff for looking after our every need, I'm sure it will be fondly remembered for years to come.
IT’S ALL GOOD!
Cosy, cool, yum.. I come here often for pâté, gnocchi and the Carbonara- those crispy bacon bits.. Seriously sensational, as too are the staff!
A gorgeous little diner to sit and watch people go by. We got the tasting menu, where you can either let the servers choose for you, or choose your own. I would never normally order pasta, but it came in a wheel of truffle cheese and was AMAZING! The house made duck pate is worth visiting for alone. The wait staff were warm and friendly. Highly recommend!
Lively and lively hole in the wall diner. The pasta is fresh and authentic. The experience is interactive and the staff are so pleasant and welcoming.
We celebrated our daughter's birthday at this restaurant and loved it. The food is interesting and delicious not to mention the service is exceptional. The restaurant has a very intimate and local feel to it which makes it all the more special. A big thanks to Stu and staff. You deserve every success espcially during these challenging times.
