Good and attentive service. Menu has been updated. Prices are fair enough for current times. Set meal for 2pax was worth the order. Overall a great experience. Only slight caution is it can get quite noisy.

About the restaurant

Hochi Mama was the God Mother of all aspiring street artists and rappers in the early nineties. An immigrant in the big city, she hosted underground art shows along with rap battles for the rejects; a place where you could just be at home, but with family. The whole crew was always welcome, the more the merrier, and she was well renowned for creating innovative dishes using the original famous dishes from her home country, and plenty of booze, in her spacious and homey warehouse.

This cheeky, vibrant and buzzing Vietnamese Fusion venue is one for your to-do list. Boasting a killer menu and a super cool vibe, this place is known for a cocktail, feast or an intimate date night.

About the restaurant

The Lobo is without a doubt, one of the coolest places to drink and be (very) merry in Sydney.
Inspired by Julio Lobo, the last Cuban sugar baron, we are a stylish and charming bar that is all about rum, good vibes and high-quality cocktails.
Tucked away on Clarence Street in the CBD, you’ll find The Lobo located in a basement where the cocktails are creative, fresh and mostly rum-based. Our rum selection is 300-bottles strong and the cocktail list goes perfectly alongside. Important note, we are are cocktail & rum bar and therefore do not have food/dining available.
If all this sounds up your alley, grab your crew and head to The Lobo. It’s a cosy and intimate spot though, so reservations are recommended to avoid disappointment. No minors permitted.

Good and staff are great. However booking a table on a Saturday evening for 5.30 then being told at seating our table was booked out again at 7 was off putting It was extremely busy and drinks were coming out slow (understandably) expecting people to enjoy a drink or two before ordering food, which took some time because staff were busy (again understandable) waiting for your meals, taking time to enjoy them and expected to leave in an hour and a half is a bit sh*t.

'Oh, that place with the vines out the front!'

Little Andorra is that cosy corner on Nicholson Street. It's an intimate dining room & bar, dedicated to serving amazing wines & delicious food to the intrepid bon vivant! Operating Wed-Fri nights, late lunch through to dinner Saturdays, and late lunch meze session 2pm Sundays. Head Chef Mertcan Dogusgen (ex-Attica) originally hails from Izmir, Turkey, from whence he brings his sense of Mediterranean freshness to his menu. The food is precise yet nurturing, the space understated yet elegant, & the wine list is eclectic yet approachable. With a focus on old world wine, we dive into as many dark & forgotten corners of Vitis Vinifera as we can find, then serve it without too much pomp. A leafy little courtyard for warmer days/nights, two small private dining spaces for groups 6-12 for when the weather is less kind.
Bookings for dietary requirements are highly recommended.
