Amazing service and drinks, for a bar I didn’t expect the food to be good but it was! Been here a few times and still Excited to come back to try more drinks.
Bartender will whip you up some drinks if you feel adventurous.

Second chances are important, right? Except the problem is, in Sydney, spoiled for choice, if you have a bad or mediocre experience, it’s not easy to decide to return somewhere when there are so many other options. On the other hand, there aren’t a dozen classy little bars in Potts Point to choose from, and while F had not enjoyed being here a previous time, he said, enthusiastically, let’s try it again!

Ate lunch here yesterday with a friend. We both ordered the Sunday roast and my friend summed it up perfectly when she said 'that has to have been the most delicious roast I have ever had'. It was amazing... I would have licked the plate had I not been out in public. Partnered with a couple of cheeky malbecs and it was just perfect. Highly recommend.

After finishing a meal from the apollo, head on to this classic cocktail bar! They make a really good cocktails! Nitro colada is a must try! it became one of my favourite cocktail as it is really yummy! service is good! Based on experience, when they made my nitro colada, their machine is broken, they have to whip the egg by hand till they reach the proper texture, i waited almost an hour for one cocktail, 3 bar tenders are whipping the egg in turns. As apology they offer a wine for free. Didn't asked for it but they still give it. They also apologise for the wait which is very good. I end up thanking the bartenders for good work and gave a good tip. Thumbs up for their cocktails.

Such a beautiful American style bar! It's very busy on a friday night so a booking is probably your best bet to get a decent table. The drinks menu is very unique with drinks like "John Wayne" and "Calamity Jane" but don't expect to go without making a dint in your wallet cause it's quite pricey!
I ordered Carlotta, which was a bit sweet for my taste but the addition of the lemon helped. I then had Lil Lottie, which was really good, wasn't as sweet as the Carlotta and had a nice citrus after taste. I then ordered a Mojito, which was beautifully done.
My friends ordered Chicken Liver Pate and they said it was really nice and the flavour was really great. They don't have many vegan options on the menu but I didn't really ask so i just nibbled on some bar nuts.
My friends also ordered a Margarita which was served with dry ice! That was very surprising and a great little show that we got to watch! I also liked the use of black salt, taking the traditional Margarita to a new level. We also ordered 99 Bitters which was by far the best one, the flavour of the 3 types of rum was amazing, highly recommend that drink! The straight Martini was also very good.
Overall, the experience of the Roosevelt was a great one, the ambiance was lovely and the service was outstanding. I highly recommend for anyone wanting a fun night out, but expect your pay check to go in a flash!

Great cocktails and the Brussel Sprouts were to die for. Great friendly service with an atmosphere to match. Good spot to locals and tourists.

The Roosevelt doesn't try to be cool, it is cool!

The cocktails are expertly prepared and service is NYC grade, lightening fast and professional.

I want to love the food more but I have never had a truly memorable meal. Sydney rock oysters are brilliant! The steak is $$$ for what it is but good luck finding a better one in Potts Point.

Lovely bar tucked inside Potts Point. Beautiful decor and good service, with a wide range of cocktails. Only downside was a bit understaffed which meant a long wait for drinks and service.

 Will still definitely visit again!

Vibes was spot on and the waitress was so friendly! Music was just a tad too loud - we really had to raise our voices to hear each other. Bit of a wait for cocktails but it was very yummy!

Lovely space and delicious cocktails! Innovative and extensive drink list. One of the best places to spend your night out in the Kings Cross.

Ducked in for a drink and the hostess was amazing. Good range of drinks and also a proper food menu too. Music was way too loud. You couldn’t get anything across unless you were yelling. I highly recommend turning it down a smidge

We hosted my friends’ 30th here in their private dining room, the poker room and it was awesome! The room looked amazing, the food and drinks were great and the staff were incredible. Shout out to Tani, who was patient and took great care of us and made the night so great! Highly recommend this awesome bar 😊

Go to place in Sydney. I always eat here on every trip. Food and vibe are great, staff are generally really good too, although you get the occasional “too cool for school” waiter.

We recently did a cocktail masterclass at The Roosevelt and it was a fantastic experience! The private room we were in was beautiful and had a great atmosphere. Tan was an excellent host, guiding us through the creation of three amazing cocktails. We had plenty of time to make and enjoy the cocktails - none of it felt rushed. The team was also incredibly accommodating when we needed to reschedule our event at late notice earlier this year, and didn't charge us a cancellation fee. Highly recommend The Roosevelt for an event or just a great night out.

Great ambience and an extensive cocktail list are the highlights here. The staff are very nice and friendly and accommodating. The wines here are expensive for what they are and the food I had was pretty average. Overcooked steak served with a really nice sauce, not exactly the medium rare I asked for. It was also a small portion and I ended up having to eat something later. We had a good night as it was a gathering of friends after years and we enjoyed some great cocktails. Would come back for the same again. There is outdoor seating but the place was pretty packed for a Friday night and it was buzzing throughout the time we were there. A bit noisy as a result so if you want a quiet conversation this might not be ideal.
