The place looks neat and modern, the place looks homey and we love the interior design. Unfortunately the staff is unfriendly and we feel that we didn't feel that we are treated as customers. The dishes was a bit pricey but it's was pretty good.
I have been here twice now, once for bottomless brunch and another time for dinner. My favourite dishes are the gruyere cheese souffle and the homemade bread. The bread is so spongy and salty I love it.
We also ordered the fish for main, which was nice but not outstanding. The skin was not crispy. The beef cheek was soft but could have had more flavour.
The brunch selection was better than what we chose - I remember really enjoying the cured salmon and caramelised onion frittata. Worth a visit
Very interesting cocktails and good wine list. The service was great and had good knowledge of their products. the blue mackerel was well balanced so was the smoked mozzarella. The herb roast chicken was moist and great flavour. However the beef was a little disappointing in being a non event. Even though the food was good it's not a place i would go back to again and again to eat, but for cocktails a nice little place
I would guess that the reason I didn’t review Dead Ringer before is because I’ve only had cocktails here. But what cocktails! An interesting selection with enticing descriptions in a fun, casual, hip atmosphere. I sent friends here who told me they’ve been back more than once to flirt with the cute barmen. But finally, I managed to get a meal here, and it didn’t disappoint.
Dead Ringer is a modern Australian restaurant situated in Surry Hills. They serve up delicious food and a great range of alcoholic beverages.
Have to be honest, wasn’t expecting my experience las Friday evening, But I was pleasantly surprised. We had drinks and food for 4 of us and the selection of food was on point! Love the dips that came out and the well toasted bread to go with it. The meat dish was delicious, had to order 2 though bcos it was a tad small for 3 meat eaters. Salad was nice. Wasn’t too excited about the gnocchi - a bit bland but didn’t take away from the experience. Had 2 bottles of read, and our friends had cider, a few cocktails as well. Overall, spent about $430 between 4 people. A tad expensive for drinks and tapasy food but worth it!
Limited selection on menu but great food. My favourite would be the pork chop, well done on the flavour on breadcrumbs and pork chop was tender and juicy.
One of our local favourites its definitely DEAD RINGER. It’s just up the road from us on Bourke Street in Surry Hills, really close to Taylor Square! One of the reasons it’s on our favourites list is because the menu changes all the time. This means you can keep going back and trying out new dishes! Another thing we love about the menu is how creative it is… you just need to look at the ingredients in each dish and how it’s been put together!
Chicken is such a staple for a lot of people, but not many places get it right. But Dead ringer did! The chicken was nice and succulent. They marinated the chicken in some kind of sauce and it was amazing.
I like the variety of their menu. Great place for a big group and sure everyone would be happy and have/eat at least one item from the menu as there is vegetarian,GF,vegan options in hand! A bit pricey for the amount and taste, but their cocktails and drinks worth every penny. Friendly staff, good vibes.
We had such a great experience at Dead Ringer with the bottomless mimosas brunch menu. With a set menu, the food came out quickly and every single dish was delicious. The staff were attentive by bringing out more rounds of mimosas anytime we had an empty glass. Our waiter was also really nice and made us feel comfortable throughout the meal. Whilst our seating time was only meant to be for 90 mins, the staff let us stay for longer as we were having such a great time. Would highly recommend coming to Dead Ringer!
The food was delicious and very well presented. Every staff member that served us was incredibly professional, polite and had real genuine positive vibe. We had the set brunch menu that had a great variety of food and the option of the bottomless drinks was incredibly good value as the staff continued to bring out new drinks without needing to ask. Highly recommended.
Great good. Exceeded expectations and I thought it was well priced for how great the food was. Went on a Friday night. The food did take a while to come out between dishes but was well worth it when it did come out. Lost points just for sneakily charging a charity donation on the invoice. Makes it a little awkward to say no, then they have to reprint the invoice etc. Causes a little bit of a scene. Thought that was sneaky. Also a bit cringe when they welcome you as "hi friends" (a running theme through the evening) but overall very good food. which is the main thing.
Came here for their brunch menu. It was delicious and we left full. The chicken and focaccia was a highlight. There is no espresso machine so the only coffee options were batch brew and cold drip. The staff were lovely and attentive. I would definitely recommend
Open on a Monday. We ate the set menu. Totally delicious and well styled and cooked to perfection. Divine scallops and the steak was fantastic. Gluten free options were superb. Gnocchi was light and fluffy and melt on the mouth delicious. Lovely warm service. Will be back. ❤️
Fun feed-me menu, good service and sleek presentation - particularly loved the stracciatella. Has a good, busy vibe on Friday / Saturday nights without impacting service too much. Enjoyed sitting in the booths in the back section.
Super friendly staff, great customer service. We had the set menu here. Food was delicious. I had the best ever sticky date pudding here. Absolutely amazing!
