Sails on Lavender Bay - MCMAHONS POINT

We recently held a function at Sails and had a very enjoyable lunch. The menu is interesting, the food and presentation excellent, the wine list comprehensive and the service attentive. Beautiful spot for lunch or dinner

Post Christmas/New Year get together for 6 - a table offering one of the world's best views of the Bridge, Opera House and departing cruise ship. The magnificent view was matched by a superb dining experience. Understated, helpful service and a thoughtfully paced serving. Very tasty complimentary amuse bouche, stunning entrees highlighted by a Ricotta Mousse, tomato strawberry gazpacho, basil and Snow Crab, avocado purée, granny smith, radish. Outstanding mains were the Salmon and the Chicken Breast.

Must be one of the world's most spectacular locations, let down by poor food. Largely tasteless, "hot" dishes served cold, tough meat (beef and lamb), offered to cook (some) meat dishes as you preferred and then completely ignored requests, and forgetting some orders altogether.

We dined here as a group of friends for lunch and were not disappointed. Everything was perfect, from the food to the service and of course the amazing view across to the Sydney Harbour bridge and beyond. The service was friendly and attentive without being over-bearing. We never felt rushed even though we spend a good few hours there. The food was exceptional and beautifully presented. Perfect for a special occasion.

As we arrived with my father for his 79th birthday, who was up from Melbourne so we were looking forward to the view and food, we were welcomed by a delightful Maitre D, who'd remembered from my booking weeks earlier that it was Dad's birthday and welcomed him with a big 'congratulations sir' and took us to a fantastic table right by the window with a view of the city/bridge and all.The food was delicious, not too expensive and just really good traditional food done well. Not squid ink dirt, wrapped in a tasteless leaf with a drizzling of baby seals tears, it was great oysters, scallops, lamb, steak, salmon....and served with a smile and warranted attention.
