Enjoyed the tasting menu , great service very friendly staff !
The Ricotta dumplings are amazing it’s a must try. Fried shrimp needed a bit more zest as well as the trout but overall great dining experience.

Firstly much gratitude to Cirrus for accommodating my sisters garlic/onion family allergy. The food was outstanding albeit a little small portion size for mains. Excellent varied wine list, and great suggestions by our lovely waitress. Would definitely return.

Seafood was fresh and delicious. Lots of wine choices to pair up with food. Roasted prawns and pickled pipis were stand out dishes. White miso custard as dessert was a satisfying way to finish off the meal. Will be back!

This is a pretty good seafood restaurant located towards the northern end of Barangaroo. We had the Cirrus seafood platter which had a great selection of very fresh and delicious cooked and raw seafood. The grilled prawns and rib eye were also amazing dishes with great flavour and sauces. We came for lunch and the restaurant got very busy and noisy when seated inside but the service staff were professional and great.

I had dinner at Cirrus last night and was extremely impressed with just about everything. All the staff greeted us warmly, something you don’t necessarily expect at a fine dining restaurant. All of the food was wonderful, the standouts being the roasted prawns and the trevalla. The cauliflower side was also delicious. While the food was impeccable, the service here is something to be applauded. I will most likely be back.

Food is good but not impressive. Drips of water dropped down from the air conditioner into my classes and dishes. The staff member there just changed the sparkling water but actually did nothing else for that. Probably I won’t recommend this restaurant.

Cirrus occupies a beautiful spot by the harbour and is best enjoyed at sunset. The menu is heavy on seafood, although they have an amazing Rib-Eye. I still have memories of that steak from my last visit! We had the Cirrus Menu this time so there was no agonising over choices. Seafood was fresh but otherwise no dish was particularly a stand out. Reliable quality and attentive service makes this place a 5-star.

$95 banquet cost $160 a head for shared plates - 4 plates between 11 people without explanation and then without explanation only 3 plates. We had to ask where the other one was to be told that was it. Then 6 plates of a slice for dessert . Then because I was not prepared with cash and used a card they added $25. So 185 dollars for a $95 meal . We had 4 bottles of wine between 11 and 6 of us had a beer and 2 had a mixer. And they added the tip to the bill as a surcharge.

Avoid Cirrus. I feel like i was held upside down and shaken until the money was all gone. Food was good but not memorable.

Leaves a lingering sense of outrage which obscures the relatively attentive service, a yum cha like piling of plates on the table for the "entre" courses, and the odd mix of decent food and lack of explanation. They put it down and leave you to it. They do answer questions though.

Service was ok, but really enjoyed the food here. Yummy fresh seafood, with great sides as well. Didn’t have a chance to have dessert, but judging by the food standards, will definitely come back to try!!

First things first, I loved loved loved the ambience at this place - not to mention the cute little lamps on the table that I could use to capture food shots instead of embarrassing myself with the flash in a dark restaurant.

I ordered the Cirrus menu which consisted of 6 dishes.

Favourites: Rump steak and definitely the chocolate dessert! Steak was beautifully seasoned and was cooked to perfection (still red which is just the way I like it) AND the dessert... OH MY GOODNESS. I was scraping my spoon to try get every last piece. Surprised I didn't pick it up and just lick the plate.

Dislikes: I wasn't a big fan of the Scampi.. to be it was just rolled out prawn in a paper thin gel-like substance. I also wasn't a big fan of the moonfish as the fish itself was quite tough. We were given a fork and spoon to eat this dish with and it wouldn't even cut through the fish steak.

All in all, it was a good experience. I also recommend the imperfect cocktail which was a delight to my senses!

A fine dining establishment worth the price! Cirrus is known for its seafood dishes, so only visit if you are keen to try a variety of their classic and quirky seafood dishes.

Is there nothing that Brent Savage touches that doesn't turn to gold? Obviously, the amazing fit out was first created for NOMA, but Brent's food creates perfect synergy with the space. Coupled with smart service and an amazing wine list, it's one of my favourite restaurants in Sydney!

Drinks here are divine, cocktails are a must try. Food was seafood focused and were all very delicious. Entree of the smoked trout with toast was great, only that it needs more slices of toast!

Overall a great seafood dining experience at a moderate price. There isn't much more to say that hasn't been said already but of everything we tried, would definitely recommend the smoked trout starter and the swordfish main, but honestly it was all a cut above - even the roasted lamb neck was amazing!

Cirrus Dining, located on the waterfront of Barangaroo is one of those venues we’ve had on our list for a while now, and we finally made a visit. Cirrus is named after the cloud like apartment that sits above it. This restaurant is absolutely incredible and certainly deserves all the accolades it has received.

[4.5/5] Cirrus Dining has been on my list of fine dining restaurants to visit ever since the Buzzfeed Worth It team visited in September 2017. The grilled marron was the dish they tried and they loved the delicate yet flavourful taste of the seafood so I knew I had to visit it soon (I guess one year later).

Such a lovely location in Barangaroo by the water. We chose to sit outside since it was a nice day.

Our waitress was really knowledgeable and promptly tended to our table throughout the night.

For a table of four, we shared the seafood platter and beef main, consumed two bottles of wine, ordered a main each and shared two desserts.

It came to about $140 per person. Not bad considering its a lot of food.

Only thing that I didn't like was one of the desserts. The one with rosemary completely caught me off guard. Tasted funny, almost like medicine.

Other than that, the restaurant is nice for a girls night or a romantic dinner date.

Great service and good food

Waitresses were lovely and recommended a few cocktails. The cocktails were 10/10!! The vibe of the restaurant was also nice. I would return to explore the menu a bit more 😊.
Decently priced as well!

One of my favourite seafood restaurants in Sydney! I have been here twice already and the food is amazing, would recommend and very fresh as well! I love the prawns and they are quite generous with their portions, great for lunch by the water.

Been meaning to try Cirrus dining for such a long time after hearing many things about their incredible menu highlighting dishes from the ocean, and Cirrus definitely did not disappoint!
We dined on a Friday night and staff was extremely accommodating and friendly on moving our reservations after arriving late, their menu offered a tasting menu, a la carte and an extensive wine list.
We opted for the a la carte rather than the tasting menu as there were other dishes that caught our eye instead. All dishes were cooked exceptionally well! Amazing textures and flavour combination and is a definite must if you’re ever in Barangaroo.
Our highlight of the night was the octopus dish and salmon.
Such a lovely experience, definitely recommend.

Delicious dinner, a restaurant well known for its seafood. We had the following:
-Grilled WA Marron + Yukukosho + tomato oil
-Fremantle octopus + yellow pepper + black olive + chorizo oil
-Oysters
-Snapper + sprouting cauliflower + white anchovy
-Ocean trout + smoked beetroot + toast
-Bread roll + house made butter

My fav was the roasted king prawns + koji butter but forgot to take a photo hehe

We only had a 2 hour seating as it was a Saturday night and the place gets very busy. Great and attentive service!

Ordered the set menu here and I thoroughly enjoyed it! I would definitely recommend to everyone! All the dishes were so well balanced in terms of flavour and texture and everything was cooked perfectly 😍 I also really enjoyed the impossibly perfect cocktail and the service and atmosphere was great too 👌🏿

Took my friend here for her birthday after a couple of other friends’ recommendations.

My initial thought was that their service was amazing! We ordered half a dozen of oysters which didn’t arrive for almost 30 minutes, so we ended up asking them and they were so surprised they missed the order that they actually gave us some complimentaries along with the oysters (oysters were also very fresh and creamy btw).

We also ordered their signature dish ‘Grilled Rock Lobster + Wakame + Black Pepper’ - the lobster was cooked well and the sauce was very unique, slightly creamy and has a subtle fragrance.

In the end because we were so full and were both not really dessert people, we didn’t end up ordering desserts. But the waiter remembered it was my friends birthday so she offered us a complimentary cake to sing happy birthday to her, how cute is that!

Overall the experience was really good (mainly from their service). Can’t go wrong with a tasty dinner with good ambience and nice view!

From Across The Kitchen Table

To celebrate my birthday, I decided to take the opportunity to dine at the spectacular two-hatted restaurant Cirrus, renowned for being one of Sydney's best. seafood restaurants with picturesque harbour views and excellent food. It is located at the former Noma pop up site on the northern end of Barangaroo's harbourside

Tanya

The oysters here are divinneeeee!
The ambience is very high class, very exclusive.
The wine by glass list is huge and of a great selection
This is a modern Australian seafood restaurant so it’s mainly seafood options.
The lobsters market price is about $200 average but it is totally worth it! The salmon is also very well done and it’s flavoured components travel perfectly with it.

Alyssa Cruz

The way they cook their seafoods here is outstanding. Adding different flavours to enhance the seafood & still make the seafood the star of the dish!

Got the steak also & it was heavenly. Incredibly tender & just juicy in your mouth. I’ll definitely come back!

Came with a reservation as a party of two on a Thursday night. The restaurant was not too full, with a chic, modern ambience.
We shared 3 dishes, including the oysters, tartare with toast, and the rib eye with kombu butter. All were excellent, but the oysters and the rib eye were clear standouts. Recommend for a lovely night out.

Highly recommend Roasted King Prawn + Koji Butter! The prawns are “yolky” and the sauce is creamy but refreshingly lemon flavored. The Fremantle Octopus + Yellow Pepper + Black Olive + Chorizo Oil was also quite tasty, octopus done just right with a tangy and sour sauce and I loved the crispy popped rice bits on the side. Great decor and ambiance for a romantic or business dinner.

This is so much more than what we envisage and I LOVED it. It had gingerbread and honeycomb crumbs where the flavours just complemented each other so well. The ice cream tasted like an espresso – which was perfect.

Excellent service and even more excellent food! Everything we ordered was made and presented so beautifully. The standout was definitely the WA marron and the violet cake for me; but that being said I thoroughly enjoyed every single dish and every aspect on the dishes itself too! Would come back here for sure

Excellent food at Cirrus - although the dishes may look simple, the seasoning and arrangement of flavours were perfect!I really appreciate the hints of Mediterranean and Asian influence in the dishes. Dishes I would HIGHLY recommend ordering is the king prawns and the cauliflower. You definitely won't regret it.

The ambiance of the restaurant was also very pleasant and wasn't noisy at all. Whilst I felt that there was a general lack of waiters and waitress at Cirrus, you can definitely tell that the waiter that was in charge of our table was really passionate about his job and did a fantastic job of ensuring that we were enjoying our meal. So shout out to him!

15th Dec 2017

Drinks:
Virginian
(ginger, lime, mint, bitters)
Cirrus colada
(pineapple, coconut, falernum, lime, vanilla)

Food:
Torched bonito, cumquat, burnt orange
(savoury, sweet and bitter flavours, brought together by a judicious sprinkle of salt)
⁃ with ginger, lime, mint, bitters

Octopus, chorizo oil, puffed rice with nori and saltbush
(I have never had a more tender octopus before in my life! It was slow-heated in a braising liquid, inside a low temperature oven, never allowed to reach boiling point, until meltingly tender, then finished on the grill. The puffed rice is saffron rice, dehydrated, then fried together with nori and saltbush. Extraordinary!)
⁃ with ginger, lime, mint, bitters

Grilled marron, yuzukosho, tomato oil, finger lime
⁃ with pineapple, coconut, lime, vanilla, falernum (the coconut cream, lime and falernum flavours matched well with the creamy marron sauce and the finger lime)

Grouper, sunflower seed cream, broccoli dip, yuzu, nigella
(Cleanly distinctive flavours - the grouper flesh was just the right flaki-chewiness, the sunflower seed cream was delightful, the broccoli dip was a contrast and deep with delicious flavour)
⁃ with ginger, lime, mint, bitters

Salmon, charred cabbage, black garlic
(This salmon woke up my palate! It is usually bored by ordinary, normal salmon... But THIS is the elite, Formula One salmon aristocracy, packed full of flavour, and meltingly soft from being cooked sous vide. Who knew cabbage has so much flavour when charred?)
⁃ with pineapple, coconut, lime, vanilla, falernum

Caramelised banana, chocolate, toffee, honeycomb crumbles, coffee ice cream
(So many creamy, chewy, crunchy and crispy textures together! The sharpness of the coffee ice cream was a welcome contrast to the sweetness which was plentiful on the plate)

5/12/17 - dinner was amazing! The food was delicious, hubby and I ordered 5 dishes shared between us and the portions were just right. The atmosphere was good, got a little loud at times but I couldn't fault the food. Lobster was delicious price was a little high but definitely worth the try, swordfish beautifully smoked, the salmon and octopus was to die for and the pumpkin was beautifully presented and tasted even better than it looked. The staff were all polite and very attentive, service was great. Highly recommend if you are willing to spend a bit but definitely worth! Will be going back soon!

Our experience at Cirrus was a pleasant surprise. From the beautiful walk getting there to the interior decor and setting, it was in a league of its own considering all of the other restaurants before it were on a long line, one after the other so cirrus felt unique. Aside from the setting, the food was definitely something to rate on zamato. The pictures attached speak for themselves, and the flavours were amazing. Definitely worth a revisit next time I'm in Sydney.

✔️ Cirrus is a seafood/modern Australian restaurant beautifully located restaurant on kings st wharf. The view was amazing and the restaurant itself had a beautiful ambience and atmosphere. The service here is exceptional. Our waitress was SO knowledgeable and knew the menu literally inside out which was very helpful as we didn’t understand half the fancy words on the menu. She helped us order the perfect drinks and food suited to us. I’m not a seafood fan so I ordered the 250g rump steak, my friend ordered the whole baby kingfish, and for sides the roasted pumpkin and hot chips (which were highly recommended). Everything came out presented beautifully. My steak was cooked perfectly (medium rare) and was sooo tender, and the mustard sauce was to die for. My friend loved his kingfish as well and said it was so delicate and cooked perfectly as well. We didn’t really understand what the big hype was about their hot chips but when we tasted them we understood, they were to die for!! They were crispy but had the fluffiest inside of a chip I’ve ever had, and had some sort of homemade seasoning which was just delicious.

❌ The only thing we weren’t the biggest fan of was the roasted pumpkin side (which was more like a main size) - there were some odd flavours which we didn’t enjoy.

Cirrus's ‘relaxed fine dining’ menu is designed to be shared and features an assortment of ‘sustainable’ seafood; from caviar and lobster to flathead and ocean trout parfait. The portions are small and the bill adds up quickly (for two people ours was an eye-watering $320), but you absolutely can’t fault what’s on the plate.

I’ve loved everything Brent Savage has done in all his restaurants. Yellow never misses the mark (go there for breakfast!), Bentley is incredible too. The only one I haven’t been to is Monopole, mainly because it’s also a wine bar and I don’t drink. When I heard that Cirrus was opening I got so excited! Man, Barangaroo really has some top restaurants. But then I also realised that I have a mortgage and Cirrus was going to be expensive… The only solution: go with your parents. (We know you’ve all used this trick before!)

This is a really nice comfortable restaurant to be in. Great service which was the stand out for me, and good food. I had the flathead fish and chips - very impressive presentation and it's definitely the first time I've had fish and chips of a whole fish! Overall very tasty but could have done with just a tiny bit more salt. The Ocean Trout Parfait was very nice and so were the fish fingers. Lovely venue, great addition to Barangaroo.

This restaurant is situated near the wharf in Barangaroo. I went during the start of Vivid to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday. Food was great! Really enjoyed all the dishes! The dessert was good, however I expected it to be amazing to end the night. Overall I'd come back again to try the other dishes!

Have admired the beautiful building that once housed Noma pop-up in Barangaroo for some time now. With its curves and it’s glass it is now the scene for the very popular Cirrus restaurant that specializes in interesting and carefully executed seafood dishes. On entering, your eye immediately goes up to the suspended, old-fashioned speedboat hanging from the ceiling. The use of different materials such as concrete, leather, glass and wood also adds layers to the complexity of this minimalist space.

After perusing the dinner menu we decide that it all sounds so good that the Tasting Menu (6 courses) is a must! We begin the evening with crusty warm bread and butter and then round one: cured kingfish with persimmon and yoghurt. Just the right amount of sweet and tangy with the delicate fish! Round two: bring on the favourite dish of the night…the ocean trout parfait that has gentle hints of smokiness. Eaten with toasty grilled baguette my mind starts to wonder “maybe I could come here everyday for lunch and just have this!”. Round three: Morton Bay bug to share that has the most amazing homemade XO sauce that I find my manners out the window as I use my fingers to mop up the sauce.

Round four: Mahi Mahi w smoked mussel butter & carrot. Wow! So fresh and light, yet meaty in a swordfishy kind of way! Round five: Meat! The Rangers Valley rump served with chips and aioli was so succulent and a very welcomed dish to add variety to the menu and to stop any whinging person from feeling peckish at this point! The finale…a long thin piece of olive oil cake w salted caramel & candied sorghum! Amazing and delicious! Used to grow sorghum on the farm and feed it to the cattle so it was so interesting to see it used in this context! Kind of like a little candied crunch on top of the cake; not dissimilar to popcorn! Thoroughly enjoyed the whole evening….staff so friendly and approachable too. Heaven!

Quality seafood, top service and a beautiful setting. I had great expectations for Cirrus. And it truely exceeded them all. The price tag is on the high end. However the dishes served up was definitely well worth it.

We ordered pretty much everything. And most things were top notch. Seafood is fresh and they cook it perrrrfectly.

Calvisius Caviar from Italy - was a bit undecided if we should try Caviar as the price was $220 for 30g. & boy am I glad we did. It was d-licious. Now that's what I call luxury eating. Definitely returning to try the other Caviar options.

Smoked ocean trout parfait - so light, so creamy and smooth. Presented perfectly on the plate. So pretty you didn't want to mess it up. But once you did, you can't stop. It melts in your mouth.

Cirrus Platter - had 3 types of oysters (sorry can't remember the names of which one was which) one was average, one was full flavoured and solid (best oyster I've ever tasted) and the other was too creamy. The tiger prawns, I have never tasted prawns cooked this way, they just melted in your mouth, very smooth like silk. Scallops, mussels and kingfish sashimi were quite average.

Moreton bay bug - my favourite of the day. The meat was fresh and cooked to perfection, so tender it just melts in your mouth. It came with home made xo sauce which had a hint of heat.l (wish we could order a bowl of rice to soak up that sauce!).

Marron - very fresh, cooked nicely. But it was nothing compared to the bug.

Spanish mackerel - my least favourite of the day. Not sure if the flavours mixed well together for me. The fish was cooked very well though.

Chips - don't even get me started in the chips! They were so good, we ordered seconds!!! Cooked & seasoned perfectly, crunchy on the outside and fluffy in the inside.

Peach sorbet, verbena & yoghurt custard - very beautifully presented. The custard base was very smooth, silly and light. Nice combination with the fruit and the nuts gave it some crunch.

Olive oil cake, salted caramel, prune & candies sorghum - this was a surprise. We had no idea what to expect. Definitely better than the peach dessert. Very good mix of textures and flavours. the popcorn added the sweetness.

They also have high chairs available and a kids menu (that is not on the normal menu). I am extremely looking forward to the next time I dine here. I cannot wait to return!

Miss Deliziosa

An amazing night. We called to advise we were running 10mins late and they were fine about it. When we arrived we were greeted warmly and shown to our table. It had a great buzz with diners.

The waitstaff were amazing, patient and friendly. We were still full from lunch so we opted for ala carte. All dishes are designed for sharing. We ordered 2 of each variety of the oysters, I loved the first ones we tried but unfortunately forgot which ones they were called.

For entrees we had the trout parfait, it had great flavours & loved the different textures which complimented eachother. The only thing we weren't too fond of was the bread as it was chewy as opposed to crunchy. We also ordred the prawns, I preferred this dish out of the two entrees (however they both were great). The prawns were so nice and sweet and loved the way they cut it in half so it was easy to get the meat out, the sauce was amazing on top and had just enough to cover it.

For mains we ordered the Moreton Bay bug in XO sauce, I always find that I wish these crustaceans had more meat in it generally, the XO sauce was great as well. We also had the Barramundi, this fish was cooked perfectly and the flavours also amazing. Unfortunately by the time we had got around to the mains we were already full. The side dish of the beetroot salad with the puffed wheat gave it a great dimension with lovely surprising parts of crunch. We were unfortunately too full to try the dessert but looking from other tables, they looked amazing.

The service as mentioned was very friendly, attentive and our glasses were always topped up. Our waitress also mentioned and congratulated us on our special occasion which I thought was a nice touch. There was also no limit to how long we had the table so we did not feel rushed to finish our meals at all.

Some previous reviews mentioned that it needs to smooth out a few kinks, I think the food and service was outstanding. A truly enjoyable experience. I would definitely be back to try the tasting menu, and next time will definitely make sure that I am ready to eat and hungry instead of eating a late lunch beforehand.

If you get a chance try the prawns and barramundi dishes!

It was the mothership’s birthday at the end of the year and we celebrated at newly opened Cirrus Dining on the end of the Barangaroo development for a seafood feast!. We start with the Smoked Ocean Trout Parfait ($24). The fish fin shaped wedge of silky smooth parfait is creamy and perfect against the pops of briny roe and easily slathered onto rounds of crisp baguette.

Seafood dishes and sides are tasty. Altho portions err on the small side. Ambiance feels like a greenhouse. All glass. Maybe will be nicer in winter and when construction on that side of barngroo is done. Service was soso, wasnt overly friendly or great, but nothing major to complain about either.

Located at the very end of Barangaroo walk, Cirrus offers fine dining with a casual feel. I got a 6 course shared menu for a reasonable $95pp. For me the kingfish, ribeye and choc orange dessert were standouts. Service was very prompt and professional. There was also a large wine list on offer. Only negatives was the seating near the window has no shade so got very hot in early afternoon.

Absolutely sumptuous food at an amazing location.

I started the night outside having drinks with extended family and taking in the view. When our table was ready we moved inside and ordered a range of dishes to share.

We started off with fresh oysters and bread and then moved to the main course. The Morton bay bug was the best I have ever had but my favourites were the marron and flounder. The kingfish was fresh as was the grouper. You can't go wrong with chips as a side along with any of the salads.

We finished the night on a high with desserts of chocolate wattle macadamia orange cake and the outstanding Magnolia ice cream passion fruit and almond meringue.

Helen | Grab Your Fork

A single Moreton Bay bug is a lesson in simplicity, grilled so its sweet flesh takes on smoky caramelised notes, amplified by a generous basting of housemade XO sauce.

And the humble fish and chips combo gets upgraded here with a whole flathead, deboned and crusted in panko crumbs, amaranth and black rice. The fish is cooked to such an incredible crisp we happily crunch our way through the tail and fins. The eyeballs and fish cheeks aren't left behind either.

Exceptional. The fourth resto from the industry legends Brent Savage and Nick Hilderbrant with a focus on seafood. Like Bentley Bar, Monopole and Yellow the wine list is outstanding and the food inspirational. Amazing technique to combine flavours and textures in a beautiful room by the water. My dining buddy was vegetarian and Cirrus effortless recreated a couple of items without seafood that are divine. The meat and poultry items sounded delicious but I went for prawns and bugs. In a large serve the flame baked prawns have a remarkable fenugreek milk that is delicious. The house XO on the bugs is also amazing. I'll be back here without doubt. My only gripe would be not getting a drink while I waited for my friend to arrive but that is minor when everything else is so good.

I found Cirrus dinning to be a beautiful location and the decor was sleek and simple. In terms of the menu they had a very extensive menu primarily seafood based. We 6 dishes including the prawns, kingfish, Barramundi, cheese plate and merengue dessert and al were delish. Wine selection was also very good and the waiter helped us to choose a wine free preservatives from Sicily.

Beautiful atmosphere at Cirrus. We had lunch there. Service was fabulous, knowledgeable and respectful. They welcome your questions about the food that you may want to order and make thoughtful suggestions. We decided to let them select the wine to go with our main dish and we were not disappointed. The food is second to none. Absolutely loved the food. Unpretentious, welcoming and would highly recommend to all.

Jennifer C

Great tasting menu. Decor and vibe was more casual than I expected. Favourite dishes were the bread and the lamb (which was a surprise considering it’s a seafood restaurant). The chocolate cake was WAY too rich the two of us couldn’t finish one serve. And we love chocolate cake. Staff seemed a little uncoordinated on the night and toilets are not on site which is bizarre for a fine dining.

Adelaide Khayad

We walked-in on a Saturday night for 6 people and luckily they were able to accommodate. The waitress looking after us was very friendly. We all went for the Cirrus Menu costing $119 per head, it was very filling in the end, food was descent.

Came here on Sunday 20 Feb, food and service was fantastic. Brought out dessert with Happy Birthday written on it for my partner. Everything was great, however it would have been better if the meat we ordered had come out at the same time as the seafood, it came out on its own after we had the bread sides and seafood, it was just a bit overpowering to have on its own.

Wonderful Ambiance and Lovely food. Visited for an office event with colleagues. Overall quality of food and service was remarkable. Note: their meat is #halal sourced however you will need to share your preference upfront. They are really considerate to accommodate the request.

Great meal at Cirrus Dining in the heart of Barangaroo. We came here to celebrate Mother’s Day and it didn’t disappoint. Staff were friendly and the ambience of the restaurant was perfect for the occasion. Restaurant also had outdoor seats overlooking the water and ferries, would definitely recommend sitting outside for lunch on a sunny day. We had the Cirrus Tasting Menu, each course had generous portions for sharing. We particularly enjoyed the yellow fin tuna with the crispy chip and also the lamb course which was cooked perfectly. The dessert was just the right amount of sweet and had great flavours. We visited during The Fork Festival so were able to enjoy the menu at 30% off. Definitely worth a try, especially when there’s a discount.

Late lunch. Went there without a booking on a Sunday afternoon. The staff are very accommodating and friendly. Food was good. We probably over estimated ourself and ordered a bit too much for 2 people as we were starving! Overall we had a great time.
