glebe point diner

surprisingly nice! we booked for our anniversary and was given a great table. the tables are close together but no annoyingly so. the we had the mozzarella and squid entrees, light and fresh. the steak and pasta were absolutely amazing, although a couple extra noodles in the pasta would have been better. the baked alaska was as good as it gets. overall the service was well above the menu's price point and thewinelist is very good.

great menu, fantasticwinelist and brilliant food. what makes this eatery outstanding is the service.

after three years in melbourne i'm still coming to terms with the slipshod service you get in most sydney establishments. the glebe point diner is an exception.

i love everything about this place.

hard to fault. all three courses were interesting, delicious and good value. the service was exceptional - there when you need it, responsive and knowledgeable, but not in your face. we opted to take a bottle ofwineand fork out the $15 corkage, otherwise the in-housewinelist is a tad excsy. overall, on the basis of our one visit so far, the glebe point diner is hard to fault.

we visited this restaurant as part of the glebe tasting treks. it was our first venue of the evening as part of our progressive dinner and it set us up well for the rest of the night. the staff were warm and hospitable.

we had a few sharing dishes off their starter menu. these included the raw kingfish and fried spencer gulf squid. my favourite was the duck liver pate which was smooth and rich and went well on the grilled bread and smeared with the pear jam to offset the richness of the pate. served with a glass ofwineor a bottle of beer, the group were happy campers at this restaurant.

would be great to try the other dishes off the menu as quite interesting choices.

wonderful food, complimented by a wonderfulwinelist and friendly welcoming service. we didn't have a booking on a busy wednesday night, but all efforts were made to accommodate us. will definitely be back. well done glebe point diner.

always great... dependably good food, service,wineand experience. have been here at least a dozen times since moving to the area, and have loved every time, with small or large groups... mid-week byo is awesome...

glebe has come a long way over the past ten years... this restaurant had a lot to do with its improvement, demonstrating the demand for suburban dining.

outdoor tables are preferable, especially in winter, when you can snuggle up under a blanket with a heater.

stumbled into this little place quite by accident. all of the specials on the board sounded very interesting so ordering was quick and painless.
all of the food was quite exceptional.
i am a cook myself so am unimpressed by overpriced, simple meals. this establishment is not like that. for a modern australian restaurant, this would be very close to the top of the sydney list for me. simple, elegant, unassuming and delicious.
one gripe would be thewineprices, which were a tad on the high side... one frenchwinewas almost a $30 mark up from the retail price... which was a bit confusing.
the service, however, was 1st class and beyond reproach.
whether your an inner westie, an 'out of towner'... or just a eastern suburbanite who wants to buy amazing food at half the price (at least) of what your paying down the road... this place deserves your attention.
will come back in summer for the outside seating. looking forward to it!

had the tasting menu with matchingwinetonight. it was fantastic start to finish. definitely the best value tasting menu i've had in sydney.

awesome lunch here today. great service - friendly , attentive and proactive. very goodwinerecommendations as well.
the entree of brussel sprouts, broccoli with blue cheese (see photo) was out of this world good. could eat that every day easily.
the main was 12 hour brisket on polenta. very good, although needed to be seasoned a little more.
overall a first class experience, love this little gem in glebe.

amazing food, greatwineand fantastic value! we had the sharing menu withwineand there was more food than the 2 of us could eat but we gave it a really good go. the quality of each dish was outstanding. would definitely go back.

one of my faves. over the years i reckon maybe 100 meals. and not one ever disappointed.

the ambiance is lovely, the outdoors seats are sublime on balmy summer nights and this seems to be the only place i know in sydeny which sells decent and sensibly pricedwinein half litre carafes. why don't more places do that? even the diner in neutral bay didn't last time i went there.

anyway, this place is good. the prices are a bit bougoise but you pay for what you get.

hope to eat another 100 there.

yum!. fantastic lunch was had by all when we visited last. food is really good, goodwinelist too. service is good and atmosphere is pleasant . will continue to return time and time again.

great food & service. i have eaten here 3 times - lunch .& dinner. the food is excellent, service exemplary,winelist well chosen. a bonus - parking is also easier down this end of glebe point road
highly recommended.

love this place! it's not cheap, but for a special dinner it's worth the extra coin. the menu is always changing, but everything i have ever had here is good. the oysters are to die for. goodwinelist too.

there's no finer diner!. we got a last minute booking for dinner and were not disappointed. the staff were lovely and attentive, the dining room is stylih, chairs comfortable & bathrooms equipped with aesop products. also, parking, unmetered, out the front!
we had the scallops with pig tail - ok, i know this is a twist on the scallop + pigear/cheek/chirzo combo, but please, if i order a tail, i want curly! and no need to crumb, seriously, it's the same skin that we make crackling from - so it was delicious, but a bit unadventurous for the promise.
so had the duck, quail & chicken terrine - divine. he won! a big slab, with sourdough toast, poached mini pears and quince paste. yum!
then i had the blue eye - perfectly cooked with lots of peas & a few clams ( a bit odd, but fashionable, meh). so won again with the 12 hr slow roasted berkshire pig. generous & delish.
should not have listened to the waiter who suggested the snake beans - should've stuck with the salad leaves. with a bottle ofwine$90 each - no dessert, so possibly a bit exxy, but what price on good food and a full belly?
