Fabulous spot & aesthetic, decor. Lovely food. Bit pricey but so I imagine is the rent. Kind, professional staff. Loved the sashimi, beef fillet, tiger prawns (special). Wines by glass good even if a bit pricey. A real keeper Matt!

WOW! An amazing meal, each dish was packed full of flavour and served in an architecturally stunning building.
As people who love good food from Melbourne, our trip to Sydney was centred around amazing places to eat. We were intrigued by the place as the executive chef had worked at Noma and Vue De Monde. The restaurant is housed on the second floor of this bird nest shaped building in barangaroo overlooking darling harbour. Nestled above a pub and below a fantastic bar 'Smoke' this restaurant is definitely a diamond in the rough.
We weren't feeling overly hungry so we decided to go with an a la carte menu. We selected the
- Miche Sourdough with housemade butter
- Steak tartare with mountain pepper
- Cured trout with dill, sour cream, pickled onion and flatbread
- Smoked Bone marrow, onion, capers, parsley, grilled sourdough
- O’Connor scotch eye fillet, roasted onion, green mustard
- Petit fours
- Rocky road
The sourdough was cooked to perfection and the butter a delightful start to our meal. Served on a crumpet, the steak tartare was a tantalising morsel that awoke our tastebuds. The crumpet was fluffy and the perfect accompaniment to this dish and we were so happy to see it return with the cured ocean trout. The cumpet was the perfect vehicle for this well cured ocean trout was and once dressed with the sour cream, dill and pickled onions it had us wanting more.
Before we knew 2 shin bones filled with delicious smoked bone marrow came out to our table. The bone marrow melted in our mouths and the sourdough was the perfect sponge to mop up all the flavour. This was our favourite dish of the night! The scotch eye fillet served medium rare was also cooked to perfection.
The dessert menu had us guessing and we didn't know what to expect. The petit fours were the perfect light finish to the end of the meal with a delightful home made musk stick that reminded us of our childhood.
The rocky road was one of the best desserts I have ever eaten. Despite it's smooth texture and gorgeous presentation each spoonful of this dessert was full of those renowned rocky road flavours.
Bea is going to be big! We wait to go back and eat there again on our next trip up to Sydney
Was a lovely setting for dinner, food was good. Cocktails were great. A little too expensive for what you got in my opinion, however it was a nice place nonetheless
Had my 23rd birthday celebration here, the service was wonderful, the view amazing, the vibe was quite good! Food was quite good and quick! cocktails were average though
We came here out of a whim to try something new and we loved ot! Not only they accomodated us without a reservation, but the waitress was really friendly and gave us her recommendations on what to order. We wanted to try the set meny bit with 2 of the 4 at the table with allergies/intolerances of some sort we thought it was going to be a no-no, but to our surprise they accomodated everything and checked and double checked with us if we were happy to have the changes suggested. So most of the dishes came in 3 presentations, set menu unmodified, lactose intolerant modified and egg/peanut allergies modified. All the dishes we received were really tasty, so I have only positive things to say about Bea.
phenom first celebration for hubs birthday weekend at Bea, short for BeaUTIFUL I am certain • share style of Pambula oysters (our absolute fave and we knew from first taste that is where they were from but asked the service staff to confirm), clams, pork neck skewer, tuna, duck egg + mushroom, coral trout with lobster in xo sauce, condiments, lobster bisque, and a @starwardwhisky 10th anniversary whisky for hubs, and a umeshu martini for me (and a sparkling rose) • everything was stunning, and the service was faultless (even before @chefmattmoran turned up for his lunch date)
Beautiful location on the busy Barangaoo wharf, located on the upper level, you dine with not only amazing views, but impeccable service & delicious food. I highly recommend the marron, steak tartar & kangaroo.
Great restaurant for a fancy occasion! Went here with 4 of my dear friends and we had a lovely night. Our main waiter was great with recommendations and very attentive. Food was tasty, and all things considered, quite inexpensive for this type of restaurant. Great for a special occasion, with lovely views of Darling Harbour, especially with Vivid on.
Perfect dinner with friends I would say! We booked a table for 5 on a weekday and enjoyed the meal to the fullest. The next thing was the menu has a bunch of veggie options and that made our day. We tasted some non veg dishes from our friends coz it just looked so good. Hard to resist! Trust me the food, the cocktails and the desserts were just so amazzzzingggg. A bit on the expensive side but special occasions deserves places like these.

Bea is on level 1 of Barangaroo House, the view is pretty spectacular. It’s fine dining with modern Australian cuisine. We thoroughly enjoyed the food, however we had high expectations for this place and to be honest we were a little disappointed. Don’t get us wrong, the dishes were not bad or anything, it was simple done really well. Our favs were the bone marrow, cauliflower & the barramundi. Oh and did we mention the cocktails here are delicious!
Nice atmosphere in this pub/club. Saturday night had the best music on, was too bad we couldn't get up and have a dance. Security was very friendly and I appreciated that. Service was pretty quick too
If you're looking for a nice wine or cocktail after a long day with an epic view, this place has the goods. Friendly staff, good drinks list and the view.... I'll let the photo speak for itself.
Went there for work drinks. It was really nice with great views. But the music was very loud, so it was difficult to have conversations with my colleagues. The food was great tho 👍
