Exceptional food and customer service. Would highly recommend!
Fantastic ambience, excellent service and outstanding food. We will be back for more!
Great experience and well looked after by all the staff
The restaurant is really beautiful and service was well done during the dinner. However, I booked 2 weeks in advance and called 1.5 weeks in advance to verbally confirm my booking. The gentleman I spoke to confirmed times. The day of the dinner I received two missed calls, upon calling them back they had told me I booked after their last sitting, which was only 15 mins before the kitchen closes (why would that time be available to book if it was too late?). I explained I had already spoken to someone and they never said that the time I had booked was too late. They did apologise, but said I would have to get there 25 minutes before my booking. I was not happy with this outcome as I had people travelling from a few hours away to make this dinner. They ended up being able to let us have dinner at our initially organised time. But this frustration and stress did dampen the night at first.
Amazing food. Great service. Nice atmosphere. Will definitely dine at this restaurant again.
Amazing service and great food! Water was never empty and everything was delicious!
Was very disappointed with the food.
For what you pay I expected better.
The food and service is always amazing here
Only middle eastern restaurant I go to when in the city
Hi Fran, Babylon Food and service is definitely as stand out and it is great to see that our offering keeps brining valuable guest such as yourself over and over again. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Great service and food. Accommodated our special request as well
Hi Shubham, We do everything we can to accommodate any request and glad to see that all your request were accommodate it. Thanks for your generous feedback. Many thanks, Babylon Team
The food was good but never worth the price. Service was alright but way friendlier at the bar than the actual table service.
Lovely quiet Boxing Day. Possibly an extra dish or two would make it seem a bit more resplendent. Enjoyed our morning.
Hi Appy, thank you for your feedback and taking the time to give us a high rating. We wish to see you again soon in the near future. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Nice enough food but not for the prices charged. Its marketed as a high end restaurant but the service does not back this up, staff were unfriendly and not very attentive. We were told we had to vacate our table by a certain time even though the restaurant was quiet.
Other issues include difficulty in finding the front desk on arrival and air con was freezing at the dinner table to the extent 2 of our guests had to put on jackets. Overall, I expected more and left disappointed.
Food was delicious, customer service was impeccable, will definitely be returning sooner rather than later!
Hi Katemac, Impeccable is the word that made my day today as I love reading and responding to those beautiful comments. We are so please that you enjoyed your experience here at Babylon and we hope to see you sooner rather then later. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Food was amazing we shared the Premium Taste menu and honestly beautiful light and filling. We had a last minute change which luckily could be accommodated for. Will def be back
Thanks Sarah, The premium taste is definitely a must try as it does highlight all our hero dishes. Glad to see that the venue was capable to accommodate a last minute change during a very busy season. We look forward to seeing you again. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Great food and drinks that never disappoint!
Hi Tina, Glad to see that you enjoyed the food and beverage offering and even better when you said never disappoints :) Many thanks, Babylon Team
The service was great, wait staff were very attentive.
Food was delicious, full of flavour and came out quickly.
The cocktails were very good.
Hi Minish, Glad to see that you enjoyed the food and beverage offering. We hope to see you again soo. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Found it disappointing, small portions compared to price. Slow service, meals didn't arrive to all people in the party at the same time - approximately ten minutes later the rest arrived.
Hi Paul, We are terribly sorry about your experience. We have passed on your feedback to our management team for reviewal. Many thanks, Babylon Team
My 2nd time is as excellent as the 1st. Wonderful flavours, very pleasant and authentic service, but music volume bit on the loud side for us. Needless to say, I recommended my boss and he’d already make 2nd reservation.
Hi June, We love seeing repetitive guest. We look forward to having you, your boss or your friends back any day. your feedback is so generous and much appreciated. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Amazing dishes with well balanced flavours. The oysters and the lamb were a standout.
Hi, You cannot go wrong with how fresh the oysters are and the chefs little twist on it. As for the Lamb, I can see that you decided to come in for a proper feast and you did it the right way Many thanks, Babylon Team
Delicious and beautifully presented food. The staff were very helpful and attentive, constantly refilling our water glasses. The restaurant area was lovely and quiet whilst the bar area was lively and vibrant.
Hi Cindy, Thank you for this generous review. We look forward to having you back either in the restaurant for a meal or a quick cheeky drink on the rooftop. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Beautiful restaurant. We were there for the brunch. Service was wonderful and a great atmosphere.
Hi Cameron, So pleased to see that the staff delivered a wonderful experience. We look forward to having you back. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Excellent food. We had the Taste banquet and it was more than enough food. A great variety and delicious.
Hi Gail, Banquet is the right way to go. That's the idea of middle eastern cuisine "more food then you can handle" Many thanks, Babylon Team
Music was quite loud but overall the food was fantastic, good service and didn't have to wait long between courses
Hi Dylan, We do apologise about the music and we have already discussed this with the management team so thank you for this. Mainly glad to see that you enjoyed the food and the service. Many thanks, Babylon Team
nothing to add, it was a very good experience. I would recommend to others and will definitely be coming back.
Hi, We love to see that you would recommend us to your friends. We look forward to having you back either in our restaurant or in the rooftop bar for a drink and nibble. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Great ambience for a Westfield, but several incorrect orders from the waitstaff tainted it a little. The fact there was no toilet paper in the toilets really finished it off. Drinks were well priced (but we didn’t get what we actually asked for) but the food prices were a bit high for the quality. Paper napkins too - they should have put them in the toilet haha
the food was delicious however the bottomless champagne did not complement it. Overall would still come back!!
Hi, Now that you have tried the bar area, its time for you to come and try the restaurant side. You are in for a treat. Many thanks, Babylon Team
I can’t express enough how amazing Babylon was. Every single staff member was amazing. Especially out waiter which I forgot his name.
We got seated in a private room area which was fantastic! Such a beautiful little space. The food and cocktails (and mock tails) were so great!
Then we went to the bar section where the music was amazing and to top it off sat in another private little area that Made it feel like I wasn’t in Sydney. Almost European vibes.
Would recommend to everyone
Hi Joanne, It is such a big venue and with many little private corners and rooms. Seeing what you just wrote "Every single staff member was amazing" just made my day. Your feedback will be passed on to all the staff as they love seeing those comments. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Unbelievable food. Cant remember when I last ate Lebanese/ middle eastern cuisine this goid, oh wait maybe in Jaffa.
Starve yourself the day before so you can try at least 4 or 5 of the mains, trust me its affordable.
Hi Kamal, The Chef was so pleased to see your generous feedback. Seems like you ordered everything on our menu as you couldn't decide what to order :) Many thanks, Babylon Team
My friends and I had a great night, food was delicious and the service was excellent.
Hi Jennifer, Glad to see that you enjoyed your night. Here is for many more enjoyable nights at Babylon. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Great restaurant! Food, service and ambience on point!! Highly recommend.
Hi Vera, Thanks for your feedback and we do appreciate you visiting us and wish to see you come back for more in the near future. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Really great value for money - the bottomless brunch was awesome. Food served was super tasty and my friends and I really enjoyed all of it. Staff were also very attentive and really friendly!
Hi, The bottomless brunch is definitely a big hit. The food is definitely unique and tasty. Our chef has put a lot of thought, time and effort in creating seasonal menus. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Interesting twist to the traditional Middle Eastern offering. Tasty and fresh. Our favorites were: the Murray Cod, Lamb Shish Tawook and Grilled Octopus.
The taboulleh was yummy and presented in a very unusual way.
After lunch we continued on in the outdoor rooftop bar which is very cool!
Hi Annette, It is indeed an interesting twist and yet a tasty one. That presentation on the tabouleh is very unusual but the idea of having to dig in for the reveal is always fun. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Food was not cooked very well was very dry and the fish smelled like I was at the fish market definitely was not eatable
Food was very bland barely any flavour and there wasn't many options to choose from
Great atmosphere, food amazing, especially appreciative of the AC during a hot day.
Hi, On a hot summer day, aircon is the way to go. Great to see that you enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. Many thanks, Babylon Team
Amazing food, fantastic service. Great atmosphere and music
Hi Jenna, Thanks for your generous feedback. Hope to see you again soon. Many thanks, Babylon Team
The maître d for the restaurant was so awful one of my friends was brought to tears at the table
While the food was absolutely amazing and came out in a timely manner, the service otherwise especially for clearing the table and serving drinks was very poor.
We ordered drinks first thing (bottle of prosecco, 2 beers, 1 lemon lime bitter). We were onto our 2nd round of food from the tasting menu when the prosecco and beer arrived. We had to wait another 10 minutes so we could cheers when the LLB arrived.
Throughout the lunch, often new dishes would be placed on the table without clearing away empty plates. We didn't get offered fresh plates for our main. One side dish arrived after we already finished the mains.
Further when we finished, we ordered coffee and montenegros to have with dessert. We got our dessert and finished our dessert before waiter came back 15 min later to ask how we would like the montenegros. It was then another 15 for them to come back and advise they didn't have them (which is fine, but why did this take 30 mins in which we could have ordered something else?) We then scrapped this order and asked about our coffees. Which finally came out 30 minutes after ordering and well after dessert.
It was my first business lunch since covid started for which I had to get Vice President approval from my company. I was looking forward to impress and spoil my company for a nice EOY celebratory lunch. I would not be recommending this for any professional occasion based on the poor service even though the food was incredible. You lost out on a lot of revenue from us not being able to get drinks either.
Great food, great drinks menu. Staff were lovely. Unsure how to differentiate booking balcony over restaurant but menu in the restaurant is best.
Hi Natalie, Thanks for your feedback. Glad you enjoyed the food and beverage offer. We are working further more on our website to ensure that the message is clear. We will pass this important and critical feedback on to our management team to action. Many thanks, Babylon Team
The service was outstanding! A few of us had special dietary requirements which the Chef was able to cater to. The food was amazing! The best Levantine food in Sydney!
Hi Kacey, Glad to see that you enjoyed both the food and the service. The chef definitely goes the extra mile to ensure all our customers leave happy and satisfied. Many thanks, Babylon Team
