kingsleys woolloomooloo

the customer service was really amazing!! the service was really on point! the seafood dishes and the truffled potato gratin was really nice! my boyfriend ordered a dry aged striploin on the bone 400g. unfortunately, after one return of the dish to the kitchen, the meat was still returned burnt butcookedwell inside. he wasn’t satisfied with his dish! would return again for the seafood but honestly don’t understand what is the hype with the steaks at this restaurant!

my partner organised for us to go here for dinner for my birthday, it was great!
the service was impeccable, our waiter was on the ball at all times, our glasses were never empty.
the food was top quality, best steak i have ever eaten, it wascookedto perfection.
when we ordered dessert they brought out mine with a birthday candle in it, it was very thoughtful 👍🏼

this place is amazing every single time we go. been going here for the last 3 years. the wagyu is amazing whencookedmedium as it has a high marbling score. the oysters are cold and fresh. free bread is also a score! =]

kingsley would make vegetarians cry but carnivores start growling in anticipation. i really liked the sketch of a cow sitting looking shocked at a book and the caption was "the moment he realised h wasn't looking at a family album"
are the garlic prawns and rib eye, creamed spinach.cookedhow i requested which is not always the way it happens at steak houses.

kingsley's is one of the best steakhouses you will find in sydney. i went here for my father's birthday and it was a memorable dining experience. in summary, the food and ambiance was amazing but the service was a little slow.

we started off with some salad and calamari for the entrees which were both amazing. portions were small but definitely the 'quality over quantity' principle is evident here. for the mains, we ordered a variety of steak cuts: ribeye, new york strip, and filet mignon. for myself, i ordered the ribeye steak with two pieces of bone marrow on the side. the steak wascookedbeautifully as requested to medium rare and the bone marrow had an incredible flavour. moreover, the side dishes we ordered were: salad, potato gratin, steakhouse chips, salad, and the beans. they were all stunning but the steakhouse chips was just beyond any chips that i have ever tasted.

seriously this place is pricey but it's truly worth it. a nice place to go for a special occasion like a birthday and i will definitely come back here again in the future.

divine spot for a long lunch. perfectlycookedtender pieces of meat. generous side portions. great long wine list with solid lower budget options. extremely helpful and friendly wait staff.

genetics is a funny thing. as regular readers would know, the marito is a vegacquarian. i’ve never been a big meat eater, and even less so since we’ve been married. yet our progeny are two of the biggest carnivores i’ve ever come across. a slab of expertlycookedmeat and a side of green beans is one of their ideal meals. so it was no surprise when i asked where they wanted to go for lunch for their birthday that they suggested a steakhouse. being spring, i thought woolloomoloo would be very pleasant for an outdoor waterside meal, and kingsley’s it was. i thought then, it was only fair, thatâ they write up their thoughts on our experience. i would only add that the service was excellent, with extremely attentive and friendly staff.

nice view but annoying location! the food was great, steak goes well with marrow and itscookedperfectly. crab legs was tender and flavourful with the taste of fresh sea.
the staff was amazing and friendly also offer advice for the flavour combinations and drinks. beautiful place but hard to get to because theres no parking or public transfort besides taxi ! 😃 until next time .... keep eating!!!!!!

another great steak we had .... another great steak
we had another wonderful experience at kingsleys last week. perfect steaks, great sides and exceptional service. i'll be back again when next in sydney.

rare to be so very well done!. four of my colleagues from throughout australia met up at kinglsey’s in august for a great steak. even during a cold august evening the restaurant was fully booked. they found a table on the wharf near an outdoor heater. although the heater could not stay alight, we managed to keep warm enough to enjoy a perfect steak.

i had my favourite cut, a rib eye (scotch) medium rare. it was crusty on top, juicy, sweet and perfectly cooked. perfect. the waiter convinced the other four guests to try a striploin (ny cut). they all loved it. they were allcookeddifferently and yet everyone was happy with their meal. said it was full of flavor and delicious. great job kingsley’s.

even though their crabs are a highlight we've always gone for their steaks. they do a good steak here with nice cuts of meatcookedperfectly to order.

superb meal - great service. i booked a team christmas meal last friday and was greeted by a friendly staff member who took us to our table. the waiting staff were attentive and nice. i booked the set menu meal with 3 hour drinks package, which was excellent value. first came the starters, which were tasty (oysters, charcuterie board), which was well presented. most of us had steaks (ribeye with soft shell crab) which wascookedto perfection and a perfect piece of steak. the dessert was equally as well presented. all in all a great meal at a perfect location. kingsleys is a place that doesn't try to get you to buy extras unless you want to do so. i would recommend kingsleys to anyone looking for a great steak at a great location. thank you kingsleys!!!!

unfortunately, after the claim of being best steakhouse in sydney, i was extremely disappointed. paid 42 dollars for an overcookedchewey scotch fillet. everything else was very nice, great service, cheeses and deserts were really good. great location. but compared to most other restaurants in sydney. there is so much talent and great food in sydney for much more reasonable prices. i had high expectations for a steak of this 'caliber' very disapointed

great steaks!. this is only my second time here but both times i really enjoyed the steaks. i couldn't go past the eye fillet with the soft shell crab and this wascookedperfectly. my family all enjoyed their steaks and the chimichurri sauce is a must! we had the chips and greens as our sides and we were too full to try any of their desserts. service tonight was much better than the first time we visited and we will be back!

service was lovely, food is awful. boring, badly executed. s&p crab was overcookedand dry. pumpkin in the quinoa salad was undercooked and crunchy. dressed crab was smothered in mayo couldn't taste the crab. the food really lets an otherwise lovely restaurant down.

gourmet "surf & turf" with views. just had a sublime steak tartare. meat was so tender it just melted in the mouth. mouth filling flavour just made for a cold 4 pines beer. for main, had the chilled alaskan crab claws - fantastic. clean and sweet flavour that went well with that second beer. my companions had the eye fillet which was perfectlycookedand tender. unlike so many places that depend on their location, the view onto the water was just a lovely backdrop to excellent food. the staff were friendly, attentive & efficient. now on my list of best places to eat when visiting sydney.
