    Enjoyed a delicious lunch at Crafted after a morning discovering the new art gallery We were seated by a window view and service was super friendly and constant The cocktail was so delicious and the food was fresh and light and very tasty It was a birthday lunch so my husband was surprised with a Happy birthday on the plate with the dessert and a candle which was another delightful moment and nice touch for the day ( dessert was so fresh and light and tasty) All in all I’d rate ‘Crafted’ highly Matt Moran hasn’t changed with his restaurants in his service and food quality and presentation and also the ambience of the restaurant is to be commended Well done Matt

    I always have a fantastic experience at this restaurant. The service is friendly and efficient, and the menu has something for everyone. While the wine list is small, it features a solid selection of top-quality Australian wines, I was particularly impressed to see an orange wine on the list!

    The venue, food, service and ambience were superb for our family gathering (to honour a family member’s return to living in Sydney after many years living abroad). Between us we had an array of main and side dishes (fish, beef and chicken). The desserts were similarly fine. All diners reported how delicious each dish was. We arrived at 12:45 PM for our meal and enjoyed an exceptionally relaxed and comfortable good few hours there.

    We were a group of 10 with a myriad of dietary requirements - peanut allergy, one gluten intolerance, a vegan, vegetarians, paleo diet, salt free requirements. A nightmare! The chef produced a perfect selection of food for our table and the staff were incredibly kind and understanding not to mention incredibly efficiency. Everyone in the party was blown away by the food which was really delicious. An Italian in the group said that he was amazed that he could still be surprised by really good food. It was a perfect afternoon and they allowed us to keep sitting for hours.
