This is a great little spot in Double Bay that serves up killer schnitzels. We ordered a few dishes. The watermelon haloumi was divine. The garlic prawns dish 🦐 was average, would have liked it to be bit more buttery. The chopped liver is definitely a must try! I was extremely impressed by the cabbage rolls. But disappointed that there were no pork dishes to choose from 😥 They had a range of desserts which looked amazing, I had a Russian coffee which was basically a black coffee with vodka in it 😍👌 The service is fantastic. A little gem 💎 highly recommended!
best schnitzel in Sydney. if not Australia. i come here every time i'm in Sydney without fail. Superb. order the veal schnitzel not the chicken, the veal is the better option in my opinion.
Had my friends birthday dinner here. The food was really good. I had the chicken snitchzel with mash and spinach. It was one of the best I have ever had, and I've had many. My friend had a seafood pasta which she enjoyed thoroughly. The service was great and the food came out quickly. I did find however that there was a lot of foot traffic and the people sitting at the ends of the table would get bumped often. Also I found the prices really high, personally too high to justify even for the best snitchzel. Luckily my friend paid for the dinner. Otherwise the atmosphere was great and we had a good night.
Best and most famous comfort food in double bay like the best schnitzels in the area along with Matzoh ball soup for 7yr olds to 70yr olds everyone finds something to like

What a wonderful friendly experience in this nostalgic restaurant. Whilst sitting and looking at the menu we noticed the size of the meals was huge. So to boost our appetite we started with an Aperol and soda water. The wine list is very minimal but full of quality and from the outset you can tell people are here for the food. Quite a strong Hungarian influence.
We had the Transylvania layered cabbage with mince and Hungarian sausage, which was magnificent until we got to the middle and found it was cold. Our waiter wasted not time in getting back into the oven and back out promptly, it was superb...But why or how can that happen in an I institution?
We also had the two types of wiener schnitzel with French salad and fries (fries were just OK) but the Schnitzels were incredible, look at the pics. Soft, juicy the nicest crumbing.
Overall I think this place is great and if your looking for a home style traditional big plate full of goodness feed, go there. Book.in advance, it gets really busy about 7.00pm.
Desert we rarely have but when we saw the apple and cinnamon pan cake come out we had to have one. It's like a calzone in size with fruits and apple perhaps straight from the apple strudel mix. Delightful!
My favourite restaurant in Double Bay. Nice location and services are excellent. Their food are delicious. Tea/coffee is nice. Highly recommended.
Awesome beef burger, don't be put off by the dated decor. The burger was one of the best I've had. Service was quick and friendly. Definitely return.
Came here for lunch on Saturday and had the Beef medallions with mashed potatoes, which were bite size fillets. These were delicious and the mashed potatoes were good too. For dessert, I had the gundel, which was a grounded walnut with rum filling and had chocolate topping. This was the signature dessert dish of this joint and it was delicious. The chocolate melted in my mouth, which felt so good. The service was good and the staff were attentive, as well as friendly. This place is located in the heart of Double bay, one of the wealthiest suburbs of Australia, where all the streets are neatly laid out. The prices are a bit steep, but you get what you pay for. This place is great for catching up with people and offers a great vibe. I highly recommend this place to all.
Consistently delicious homely food in a cosy old world atmosphere. Favorites are the Vienna schnitzel with mash, chicken soup and bon vivant cake.
The decor was probably in fashion one day... but who cares, really?! The food was good, hearty and tasty. The staff was very attentive too. What I liked about it, was the fact that the place is packed with locals that the staff greet everytime they walk in: the sign that it's a great place to eat!
Really enjoyed the rustic European feel of this cafe. Portions were generous (big breakfast) and the chicken schnitzel sandwich is a must try. Eggs Benedict were lovely as well. Don't forget the coffee. Service was friendly and food came out promptly. Decor is a bit dated but the food quality and service more than makes up for it. Will definitely come back!
Always great family time here 🥰
Yummy foods,friendly services and nice setup for years in Double Bay~
From mains to soups even desserts….
We always had happy full belly ❤️
Old school comfort food - love it. Not many of these kinds of places left in Sydney. Good service, nice wine list. Crumbed veal was moist and tender. Deep fried mushrooms with blue cheese dipping sauce - yum. Only thing missing was potato salad. We will be back, even just for the nostalgia 🥰
great experience as usual. all was perfect though the cucumber salad size was smaller than i recall and the schnitzel size was not as large as previously. but beautifully cooked and presented.
I have been coming to 21 since it opened in 1958. I currently have very strict dietary requirements and I have returned to 21 recently and have been extremely appreciative of the attention to detail and range of choice I have. I have also brought friends who have never been to 21 before who were amazed at the range and variety of the menu. I'll be back again soon!
This restaurant is the heart and soul of a community. You can easily see three or four generations of people there. A warm and homely place.
The food is good too!
I’m a coffee lover and this cafe did not disappoint.
My husband and I enjoyed our breakfast and service. =)
We were glad that the place is also dog friendly, as we had our small furpets with us.
Lovely table outside facing the street.
We definitely enjoyed our time on a lazy, beautiful Sunday morning.
My fave cafe now in Double Bay. 😍
