I totally loved everything about this place. Classy decor, amazing service and outstanding wine selection. The inside was just beautiful especially the bar area. We went for coffee and dessert. The coffee was on point 👌🏻 and the dessert was tasty and delicious 🍫🧁🍰☕ I can't wait to return for either lunch or dinner. I would highly reccomend this in every way ✅✅✅

S. T.

Classy, friendly and a great place to grab a drink with friends. The bartenders provide great service and are always accomodating . Come here between 4-6pm for their social hour cocktails, would highly recommend!

E. M.

Great place to go for a quick lunch or a breakfast or even a dinner in the city. Prices are honest and quality of food is great plus the stuff (mostly Italian) is very helpful and prepared. If you want to have a fine dining and elevate the level just next door, sharing probably the same kitchen, is CORSO BRIO. Bel & Brio though is definitely recommend for everyone coming into Barangaroo

The lava volcano is extinct. I was expecting oozing chocolate from my cake as you would from a Lava Volcano and was sorely disappointed. Staff were dismissive and unhelpful when I raised it. The other pastries were ok. Coffee was good.

M. J.

1st I was impressed by the service and the team at Bel & Brio then my Wood fire pizza arrived… OMG was it good or superb ;) thank you for amazing service, great food & creating an amazing memories for us… Much appreciated 🥳😁

c. b.

Great selection of imported and specialty foods. The normal stuff is way overpriced though; not worth it unless you need the convenience.

J. T.

Had a quick sit down coffee here a couple of weeks ago on a very windy Saturday morning. The place is very cosy with a luxurious feel and we found the staff to be very friendly and courteous, allowing us to sit down and have a coffee inside even though we weren’t having anything else. It was still a little early so I definitely wouldn’t blame them to refuse if it was busy. The coffee was great and I would gladly come back to enjoy a meal here!

N. M.

Best French toast ever! I can’t stop thinking about it even after I’m back in Singapore 😩 This paired with flat white equals perfect breakfast ever. The fruit toppings were sweet and fresh and the syrup was delicious, not overly sweet. They have outdoor seating which was nice to enjoy a good breakfast with the crisp morning weather.

F. R.

My Italian boyfriend said the food was incredible and he gets the same cuisine home made by his mum and nonna... enough said. P.S I also think the food here is incredible (:

H. J.

Such a wonderful place to eat in Barangaroo! The Bar & Dining menu had an incredible selection of food that was affordable and delicious. The setting and ambiance of Bel & Brio is wonderful and the staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend eating here!

A. R.

Nice place, great design, friendly staff (can be even better), pizza, dessert and drinks are all pretty cool, location is one minute walk from barrangaroo wharf and four minutes with Wynyard station, recommended

B. G.

Outstanding food, service and atmosphere! The staff are incredible at what they do and they go above and beyond to make sure you are enjoying yourself. The food, drinks and desert were probably some of the best i have ever had. I cannot wait to go back!

P. D.

Service is consistently good, i always come by without a booking but they always get to accommodate us without any fuss or problem. Gnocchi at Bel and Brio will always be my favourite 😍 pizza is also really good!

M. M.

We dined at Corso Brio for a special occasion. From the moment we stepped into the dining room we knew there would be a commitment to excellence and we weren't disappointed; we were seated in one of the booths and looked after by Paul who was a master of his craft, great style and was always on hand in a moment. The food was worthy of Sydney's best and the wine list will benefit even further from a major expansion this week. All in all one of those memorable dining experiences, would highly recommend.

M. H.

Fantastic experience and great value. The staff are so well trained, food and drinks were super tasty, dishes came in quick, the seating and everything around us were absolutely perfect that I couldn’t believe my partner and I only spent 170+ for a stunning Saturday date night dinner, coz we had way worse experience at other “fine dining” restaurants which cost us 300-350+ Would recommend to anyone, and might have my next birthday dinner here too ;)

M. M. K.

we just have drink and snack here but the ambience is everythings and food is really good! the price also cheaper beside the place is so cozy. worth the money. the minus just the girl with ponytail the waitress was not friendly.. but grazie giorgio for your hospitality✅ defo gonna coming back again for dinner.

A. G.

Mum & I absolutely loved everything about this restaurant. The vibe, food and drinks were amazing. You will see us again real soon 👌🏽

D. A.

Superb cuisine and dining experience. The team here are exceptional for standards of service, can't recommend highly enough. This is my first pick as a venue when entertaining out of town business colleagues

A. Y.

When I thought of taking pictures after the meals were over, luckily we had enough for dessert.😅

J. M. D. C.

This place is perfect for a special dinner or for an intimate date, a celebration with friends of some sort. The resto offers a variation of dining in either the bar area where it is more lively, or in the quiet area for more intimate ambience. The staff are wonderful from the person that welcomes and sits you, and even all the way to the Chef checking in with you with the food. Our waitress was so sweet and amazing, and has walked us through the menu and specials We had the Bruschetta for Antipasti, Risotto, Crispy Pork Belly and Pistachio Tiramisu, all to share between two ladies. The serving was just right and we finished them all. The complimentary bread with olives and the Bruschetta was a nice start, and was very tasty but not too overpowering. The Risotto though is quite a highlight with the perfect blend of truffles and mushroom, not overwhelming nor too creamy which is an often issue with many Risottos. It is so good and well blended. The Crispy Pork belly was cooked to perfection with the true to name crispy skin and juicy meat. The oil on the pork is offset by the red cabbage, caramelized apple and puree which makes it a perfect match. The Pistachio Tiramisu was good, and is an authentic one made with saviordi biscuits. I would have wanted the pistschio cream to be a bit sweeter to match the strong coffee. Will definitely recommend this place!

G. C.

Came here for my anniversary lunch, very intimate in the private dining room, music was perfect and the food was excellent. the pistachio tiramisu was the best I've ever had.

B. G.

Bel & Brio are one of the nicest restaurant/cafes you'll find in Sydney .The menu is really standout, all their dishes taste absolutely amazing and are presented with quality you'd expect of a Michelin-Star restaurant. The service is what really keeps me coming back though. Whoever runs this place has always had great eye for talent. I've been coming here for 2 years and although the faces change , the waitstaff are always very pleasant, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. My only critique was that recent renevations meant they closed off the small grocer attached to Bel & Brio. I'm sure they have something new planned down the track (hopefully!)

S. W.

We had a fantastic long lunch with great food and wine, the ambience is perfect for a romantic lunch with your partner. Highly recommend!

G. W.

So nice to be able to have a coffee again at one of my favourite places in Barangaroo Wonderful atmosphere and beautiful service!

J. E.

Good coffee and food, service was great. Eggs were cooked perfectly and have good flavour. Display cabinets full of pastries and cakes look fantastic. Only issue with Bel & Brio is the pricing, place is pretty expensive, $5 for a piccolo, $6 for a strong flat white etc, location costs money I guess, but there are a lot of options for coffee and food in this area at more reasonable prices.

D. M.

We had a lovely breakfast at Bel & Brio this morning! Great selection to choose from and not surprised by the prices considering it’s Barangaroo; nevertheless, the food portions are huge. A great setting and the management has done a fantastic job at hiring a service team which is also very easy on the eye. The coffee was amazing - will definitely come back - it’s also much better than wild sage just around the corner 🖖🏻

E. S.

Fine dining restaurant with awesome staff, food and atmosphere. Can't really complain with the service as it was exceptional. Because it's a fine restaurant food comes with a price tag. One thing to take note of which disappointed me a bit was that pizza cannot be ordered when you're on the fine dining area... I think that was pretentious. I like this place and would recommend it as a place to try and see for yourself if you'll like it, hate it or like me meh!

J. W.

We had a corporate lunch booked inside the VIP room upstairs from the main restaurant/bar area. The entrance is quite extraordinary as we were escorted through the isles in supermarket into what appear to be the back of house entrance but turn out to be a lift up to the VIP dining room which can seat upto 20 guests. As with all corporate lunch menus, the selection of food are pre booked in advance so there was no choice but to eat what was served. It was nice to have your own room but found it disconnected from the main restaurant as the toilets and kitchen were downstairs which meant each time food was served or collected the waiters had to access the lift and same with the custom to go down the lift to use the toilets. The food was tasty and well presented, but portions are a bit small especially for sharing. Cannot comment on pricing as the meal was paid for, but a restaurant like Bel & Brio would not be cheap especially located in an corporate and waterfront environment. Definitely worth going to even if not for food the bar is really nice with a huge selection of wines and whisky or pay a visit to the grocery section.

C. C.

It can be difficult to find good pizza in Sydney, but these guys do it well. As it should be - simple with a tasty crispy puff base. Good wine choices too tho the service was quite slow and the waitress forgot one of our drink orders, which we had to ask for twice then cancel as we were leaving. Other than that, friendly with a good vibe. They also sell nice produce which is a nice touch.

G. L.

Lovely staff with extensive knowledge on food and beverages, our waiter was very attentive to dietary requirements and allergies. Beautiful laid back atmosphere with sophisticated place settings, great venue for small groups or couples.

S. -.

Paul served us last night and was a delight. Explaining the specials and wines to us, looking up details for us to any questions we had. The palce is definitely a fine diner category for fit out and menu. Dress-code should be the same. The food here was wonderful - Fresh and Italian inspired. the bar staff are skilled and are very helpful. It's a brand new place and I recommend visiting Mondays if you're after some nice quiet atmosphere. Closer to the weekend if you're okay with a crowd. The restaurant is 'hidden' away behind a closed door between the bar and deli/store. Definitely recommend.

J. A. h.

Bel & Brio has an exceptional atmosphere. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they had a booking for Valentine's Day. i booked for my partner and I on the A La Carte Menu- Corso Brio, which is their fancier dining option. i was so happy to be taken to my seat, it was in an enclosed setting with dimmed lighting and ambient and romantic music. The food and service was exceptional and the staff was so friendly. i definitely recommend this place for a romantic lucnh/dinner

W. T. S. C.

Great bar with every drink option covered. The service was fabulous and the atmosphere was cool with tunes in the background. Enjoyed a couple of reds, great chat with the Italian barman and ate the complimentary nuts. A great bar to visit on your way out or for dinner.

J. C.

Great food and fantastic service. It was fairly busy but we were looked after well. Cocktails were amazing and the wine list is huge. Definitely recommend the cheese and cured meats.

J. S.

A cheeky Sunday lunch felt like being transported to Italy! Located in the super stylish Barangaroo precinct, service was top shelf. Drinks list comprehensive and impressive. Pasta was a no brainer for me and the four cheese house mad gnocchi did not disappoint. The in house tiramisu is also a must!

s. m.

I’m in QT at the Marriott and didn’t fancy tonight’s offering so turned to Bel&Brio. The crab pasta was absolutely delicious. Arrived quickly and still warm despite having to be brought up by reception. No problems getting it delivered to my hotel room. Definitely recommend.

N. A.

Shared a beautiful evening with my boyfriend for our anniversary in corso brio. The staff compliment the welcoming and friendly atmosphere and the food was amazing as always.

A. S.

Love this place. Very elegant and classy😘

M. D.

My group & I were walk-ins, trying to find a table around Barangaroo without a booking can be hard but this venue was able to cater for our group & had a table outdoors. The waiters were friendly, helpful & attentive with all our queries. The food came out relatively quick as did our cocktails. The tagliatelle ragu pasta was amazing & highly recommend this dish! The pizza also looked good although I didn’t try it. Would absolutely give this place another go to try other dishes as well as having that tagliatelle pasta again! Keep up the good work.

C. N. S.

Their wine list is second to none, and the food was exceptional. Plenty of in-and out door seating. Perfect place to relax, unwind and enjoy a good meal made with quality produce.

M.

This café/bar restaurant is in the heart of Barangaroo ☕️ The Closest train station : Wynyard (walk via tunnel (approx 5-10 minutes walk) I have been here a few times as I have work in the area previously. The customer service were not the best in my previous visits, but today they have changed my mind! The service was perfecto 👌 great work guys!! This place served amazing coffee and cakes etc, and also they do dinner menus. I tried the food a few times, very nice 😁 Today I order an iced soy latte, nice and refreshing. Think it costed $10.00 Barangaroo has amazing surroundings, there are plenty of other restaurants, bars and gelato eateries around Barangaroo. There are no toilets in the restaurant, but you can walk to the bathroom which is located outside.

R. P.

I have been here several times. Each time I have found the staff to be polite, friendly, and very attentive. The service cannot be faulted. They often go above and beyond. The food is well prepared and the portions are more than adequate. The quality of the food is also good resulting in delicious meals/snacks. The bar is well stocked with a decent selection of whiskey and wine amongst others. The atmosphere is relaxed sophistication. I can't recommend enough. Edit: the black truffle hot chips is a must try!

N.

Bel and brio is the highest quality experience I’ve had in a while with no complications on anything all food that was delivered with love passion and creativity. The resturant is Located in the heart of Barangaroo. The ambience is luxurious with a romantic setting and beautiful Italian food creating an exceptional and enchanting customer experience. I’ll defiantly be back..

M. S.

Absolutely stunning food. Could not fault one thing about this place, not only do you get the authentic vibes, you get the outstanding service and incredible taste with it. I will be returning here.

L. I.

Excellent breakfast menu with tasty waffles and croissants. Good lunch menu with fancy but filling dishes. Serves alcohol and coffee too. Ability to split bills which is helpful. Always nice to meander through the artisan supermarket attached to the restaurant.

M. C.

An amazing bistro in Barangaroo - it starts with excellent service continues with fantastic food and ends with excellent service again! Defiantly give Bel & Brio a try. Could not fault anything about it! Keep up the great work guys

I. B.

Lovely staff and the food was great! Great atmosphere, music was just perfect, not so loud. Will certainly come back again.

M. S.

Great ambience. Professional staff, particularly the 3 guys behind the bar. Tried a pizza, absolutely no problems. Worth a revist.

E. P. M.

Food changes seasonally, so I won't go into the specific meal I had. I will say that they know how to make a good meal. However, they seem to experiment a bit with flavours and I'd like to see them trial them a bit more before making it available. Staff are friendly and attentive and the atmosphere is great. Probably has the most extensive wine list of all the restaraunts in Barangaroo. Pricey but not over the top for the area.

C. D.

I have issued first on the website to enter my address to get delivered. I texted them on Instagram and within few minutes someone replied to me and found a solution for me. The pizzas has been delivered in 20min. We were impressed .... still warm coming directly from the oven! Love the customer service, I will be back physically when the lockdown ends.

S. Z.

What an amazing place! Tasty and high quality food with an ambience to suit. Wait staff amazingly attentive as per usual and this along with a seasonal menu is what brings me back each time. Highly recommended!

A. (. B.

Walked in on a lazy Sat arvo. Staff were welcoming and helpful. They have some unique items for sale, like 100yr old balsamic vinegar! Chic store with earthy tones and european influence.

M. K.

I went there to take out my client for a breakfast on a week day. It's a bit pricey but the presentation of foods were delightful, service was great. Only thing they could improve could be the coffee.

G. B.

Attentive staff well mannered. Matias the Assistant manager and his staff worked efficiently to please their customers. Great selection of cocktails plus the food was exceptional. Perfect place for first dates having a drink at the bar or chilling out on a Sunday session with a cafe latte.

S. K.

Food was delicious and beautifully presented and the staff were attentive and lovely to deal with. Perfect for a date night or a gals lunch.

M. S.

I admit I was a little apprehensive because of all the reviews criticizing the service and food quality. However, my experience was excellent! We had two very attentive waiters looking after us, our orders were fulfilled to a T, and we had our food surprisingly quickly. My tagliatelle with boar ragu and porcini mushrooms was absolutely perfect, one of the best I've had, and my partner's pork belly was fantastic! Would go again in a heart beat. It's pricey, but not shockingly so, especially not for Sydney.

N. H.

Great service, good food. We really enjoyed dining here.

A. G.

Great food, service is good but at times a bit rushed or they miss you. Great breakfast and dinner. A little fancy and hence a bit more cost. But still reachable. All elements on the plate where done correctly and in balance!

M. G.

Food and cocktails were good but service was a bit rude but that's to be expected makes you feel like your in Italia

K. C.

Croissant availability: 4 - danish, pain au chocolat and pan brioche (which is not easy to find) served with butter and jam. Although the selection is good, I did not see any almond croissant on display and raising escargot. Croissant freshness and crispiness: 4 - good quality, pain au chocolat was very good Warmed up? Yes, without asking. Serving time: croissants served at the same time as cappuccino Other sweet food availability: 4 - muffins, cakes and sweet treats Spot in the sun? Have been there in a cloudy day, so hard to say.

E. C.

Sam and all of the staff were so wonderful! Amazing food, great wine, 12/10.

L. G. (.

The food tastes good and was well presented. They had a change of staff which lead to a 15min wait for us to put in our order.

T. R.

Stopped by on a bike trip, the tuna carpacio salad and pasta was amazing. Check this place out, nearby the harbor. They have a casual area and a formal area, as well as an extensive bar.

S. P.

My favourite restaurant when I was in Sydney earlier in the month...went with 4 other people and food, ambience & customer service was exceptional!

E. F.

Two people. Ordered the second pizza on the menu with a tuna salad. Overall good, a little bit expensive.

D. B.

We waited an additional forty minutes outside for a table on Saturday night, however it was well worth it. Main & dessert portions were rewarding, cocktails were made with experience and served exceptionally smooth. Waiter service was personalised & flowed nicely. Looking forward to dining again. Highly recommend the pork belly & pistachio tiramisu.

A. B.

Food was fine but didn't feel welcome at all! The lady that wanted to find a seat for 4 of us was cold and reluctant! She did pour the water all over table when she was filing our glasses without paying attention to us and 100% was not happy with what she was doing!

B. S.

All pasta is off the menu, good service from the lady, poor service from the guy. Really just a pizza joint at the moment :-(

N. F.

Excellent hospitality, always welcoming and authentic Italian food. Try the Rigatoni its excellent.

A. A.

Spectacular service! Very accommodating for my father's birthday. The ambience of the restaurant was perfect for a special dinner and the food was very flavorsome. Will definitely be back.

S. Q.

Lovely! You know how sometimes the place and food are great but the chairs are awful? Not the case here, the chairs are so comfortable that we can sit there and eat and drink for hours! Great atmosphere and the ambient smells like cloves!

R. S.

Good quality food, pro service and a genuinely relaxed ambience. Drink section is very good.

P. M.

Most favourite store/bar/restaurant in Barangaroo. I highly recommend the bar and its super exciting drinks. Staffs are super lovely.

O. W.

All 3 courses combined to provide one of the best meals I've ever eaten. Absolutely delicious! Great vibe and the staff are all incredible. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. They really make you feel at home !

L. K.

My wife and I had a great experience last night. The service from Gabrielle was exceptional. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. We will return soon to enjoy another great evening. Congratulations on receiving your first Chefs Hat. One of many more to come, we're sure.

G. F.

A great place to celebrate anything, friendly staff, great service.

P. A.

This place has quite a special whisky and gin collection. Pricey no doubt but lots of very good quality whisky with very knowledgeable bar staff

R.

Ate at another venue in the area last night which was average and overpriced... it made me think of the incredible degustation I had here a few months ago but neglected to review. The food was so delicious my partner actually had tears in his eyes after the lamb dish - but we loved each and every dish that came out. It's clear the chefs take pride in their work, from the flavour to the presentation.

L. L.

Years of - Wonderful service always great food and best cocktails ! Thanks Nino

J. L.

Unsure what's happening with the management at Bel & Brio, but have certainly felt that the standard of service of a bar in Barangaroo was not met. Have had times when we had a good and understanding server. This time we were met with one slightly arrogant. Can always trust a good deal during happy hour even on a Saturday and great setting with friends at Bel & Brio though.

C. B.

Not sure what other ppl were expecting with service. But ours was exceptional. Food was great too.

K. R.

Warm atmosphere, even from the outside and grabbing take away. The pizzas are delicious, fresh, and moreish. The only downside is that they're filling too

J. T.

You simply can't go past Bel and Brio for its beautiful food and beverages, great atmosphere and exemplary service. The food, ranging from pasta to pizza to steak and seafood, is delicious, and patrons are spoiled for choice with its fantastic menu. The very friendly staff pride themselves on the high quality of service and care they provide to patrons, as well as their expertise on wine and beverage selection. If you're looking for an excellent night out with great food, drink, service and atmosphere, Bel and Brio is a must for Sydney-siders and visitors alike. I have dined there at least 3 times, and each was excellent.

R. S.

If you love great pasta or pizza you have to eat here. We drop in every now and then and are never disappointed. Service is great and special mention for Gabriella who looked after us really well and made us feel at home. She also gave great suggestions when we asked questions. Thank you Gabriella and all the waiters! Great wine selection as well.

A. B. Y.

Fantastic restaurant with professional service and beautiful food. Been visiting for about 3 years and cannot fault it yet! Have been seated outside during summer and inside for a pre booked dinner. Wonderful waitress and waiter team who are attentive and provide efficient service and smile :) Now the food! Amazing pasta, fresh yummy meat platters to share. This is a great venue for sharing each plate and trying a bit of everything. The pizza is also divine, never had a bad dish here. Their cocktails are fun and refreshing so I suggest you try with the meal. Thank you Bel n Brio, will return again and recommend you to my friends. Cheers! Xxx

B. W.

Incredible dining experience with Etta James and Barry White filling the space 🎼- romantic, classy and elegant with truly exceptional service. Hats off to the manager and service team who were highly attentive and professional (of the highest level in Sydney) to a team of casual afterwork mates out to celebrate a colleagues' final achievements. The food was extraordinary - intentional crafted to perfection. Highly recommend every dish we had: - oysters - scallops - Lamb ragu tagliatelle Highly recommend this spot for date or celebration for a group of four people.

A. M. T.

Best coffee in town Best customer service and table service Pizza Coffee Convenience store Overseas product Best sitting area

C. S.

One of the best Italian restaurants in Sydney. Offering great pizzas, homemade pasta and also great antipasti. Will definitely comeback here for lunch or dinner. Restaurant manager Matias was a lovely person, he served us really well. Everything was great, well done guys !

N. H. (.

Fantastic food and service. Staff are always friendly and attentive while giving you space to relax and enjoy.

A. S.

Excellent service and beautiful setting. Food is as good as Italian can get and well priced for the great quality. Nice wine list as well. Would recommend highly.

M. P.

What an amazing experience. I requested to be seated next to my partner and they did it. Its really noisy in this restaurant so ideally i want to sit as close as possible to my companion and hear what they are saying. I am extremely picky but know when a restaurant deserves 5 stars! I enjoyed the ragu pasta, it was cooked to perfecfion! I love pizza but im lactose and dont eat cured meat. They have mostly cheese and ham options. So I ordered a vegetarian option with less cheese. I ordered the egg plant pizza and it was moderately good but for a typical italian pizza it was too thin for my liking. Now that is just my personal preference. I have been to Italy and found their pizza to be thin regardless. So it doesnt bother me but My partner loved it. I also ordered fries on the side in case I dont like anything. Fries were good and came with cute jar of tomato sauce.

W. T.

We had our wedding dinner at the cellar room which was a unique and private experience. Food (especially the pizza) and wine was absolutely fantastic. We all had a great time and it was definitely very memorable. Service was on point and the staff were always helpful.

J. C.

Nice coffee, great atmosphere, cute barista and the caramelised cheesecake is a must!!

T. K.

The place is amazing with a beautiful vibe also the service, the staff are on point especially Ivan and Kevin always striving to keep customer service at its highest and are at there best and in my opinion in addition are valuable asset to the venue, I am also a person who's family are in the catering and restaurants and know the importance of service delivery to customers and highly recommend everyone to give the place a visit. 5 stars for the place and 7 stars for Ivan and Kevin.

B. F.

Great environment polite professional staff good quality food portion could be bigger

J. M.

Just would like to thank the manager who took care of us and our server for the night. Apologies forgot their names now. The reservation is under my name. I initially was a bit annoyed because I booked way in advance at least a week ago to ensure we have a special night as it was a graduation celebration dinner for my daughter. However, when I called, they can’t find my reservation. The lady who took my call was gracious and accommodating and assured me that we will have a table for 6. When we arrived, all the staff members were very welcoming. What made it extra special was the manager brought lovely flowers for my daughter because we were celebrating her graduation. That was super extra special and we greatly appreciate it. Before we left, he even came by to give chocolates with some stories to go with it. He made the night extra special and my daughter and the whole family really appreciate it. We are advocates and would definitely recommend bel and brio to our friends because of our wonderful experience. Ps by the way, the food was great!!! Thanks again. Lovely night, delicious food and great customer service.

L. H.

We were there a couple of months ago. The truffle pasta was absolutely delicious! Vinny was cheerful, very attentive and very helpful. Extremely good customer service Vinny!

P. K.

Decor is great! Desserts are best shared. Good place for a little tea break.

T. D.

Great location for a summer outdoor breakfast. Food and coffee are decent with a varied selection, though a bit overpriced. The wait staff aren't really helpful, I often feel like an imposition rather than a customer.

K. P.

Absolutely awesome! Very accommodating considering we we were first outside and getting cold, they moved us to a table inside without much fuss. Service was really good and food was sensational! would recommend without hesitation and can't wait to go back.

S. M.

Ask for a booth and settle in for a long lunch. Wine selection is brilliant and food is lovely.

V. A.

Chilled environment, great location and good food. The staff is friendly

R. U.

Couldn’t quite hit the fifth star but came close. Not quite sure why a vegan dessert - the single dessert choice on the 4 course menu - which, for all the world (or maybe just for non vegans) tasted and presented like a 4 day old rock cake of minimum flavour. All previous courses a delight to taste but ball severely dropped (with ALL members of our 11 party) with the only dessert choice offered. Must add, service and attention to detail excellent up until toward the end of our visit when water replenishment had to be asked for - a 1st world problem, to be sure 🤪

c. R.

We went there for happy hour but stayed for dinner! The staff are just amazing!! So professional and charming! The happy hour is best in Sydney-6 dollars for beer , wine, or cocktail!! The food-especially pizza we had tasted as if we were in Italy! The place was packed so get there early. Matias was our server but also is the assistant manager -such an asset to this fantastic restaurant!!!

y. f.

Nice coffee and nice atmosphere... Feel relaxed near to the water

C. S.

Best restaurant in Sydney I have been in. Was there twice and will definitely come more times with friends! The customer service is simply brilliant, everything is so delicious, you feel that you are in Italy there. Highly recommend! And the Tiramisu is one of the best I have ever tasted - my favourite desert))

L. K.

Wonderful food, really good coffee and fabulous staff.

R. C.

Good environment and great cocktails

N. K.

Amazing food, friendly service and a very nice atmosphere! We ate at a lot of different restaurants in our time in Sydney, we are definitely looking forward to returning here on our next visit

N. K.

Great service and even better food. We went back two days in a row because of how great the pizza was. Excellent atmosphere as well

E. L.

The food was excellent. We came with a large group (18) and service was quick on the set menu. They had a good selection of wine including some ITL imports. Staff were friendly and knew the wine very well. We had charcuterie, bolognese, pizza selection and pistachio gelato. The gelato was delicious.

R. M.

Want a romantic dinner with just the perfect everything ? This is the place. Feel special feel welcome and leave with a feeling of satisfaction.

G. C.

Had really good time in Bell & Brio tonight with my girlfriend. Stopped just for a quick drink but stayed for the dinner because the atmosphere and people there were amazing! Excellent service and prices really affordable for the location and quality of food and drinks. Big thank you to Mattias and Gabi for making our night special! We will be definitely back ☺️

L. E.

Great ambiance. Try the blueberry muffin!

B. B.

Went tonight for my partner's birthday. Staff were friendly and professional, food was delicious and ambiance was amazing. Highly recommended. Great value for money in the higher end of the market - well worth for the great service and great experience. Will be back!

Sad to watch the slow demise of a once-great cafe; I wandered past Wild Sage this morning which was teaming with patrons, outdoors and warmed by a plethora of heaters, when I arrived at Bel & Brio, it looked all but closed, like they had given up. Coincidently Google already thinks they have closed, wow, Google getting REALLY good! I approached a “new guy” in a badly crushed shirt, Italian, but with none of the swagger, no crisp waistcoat, no clue. I ordered coffee even though I hadn’t been asked, rinse and repeat with my breakfast order... the coffee was great but only dregs remained when the musli finally arrived, packet musli that has been open for a few days, torn dates, and nothing whatsoever that I want to come back for... So so sad. I really have fond memories of this place.

D. R.

We had breakfast here and it was fantastic, hard to find a good breakfast places in the city

B. M.

Omg what an amazing experience we had! They were hosting Dissarano night of matching Dissarano cocktails and 4 course meal. Me and hubby absolutely love Dissarano and did not want to miss out on this but we had a 1 year old and were bit hesitant to go. The team at bel and brio made everything so smooth from welcoming us with our little one with big smiles and looking after her through the night. We also needed vegan food and they made sure we had absolutely tasty vegan food with one extra course made just for us. It was one of the fabulous nights and we had the best experience with our little one. Can’t wait to return and have more amazing meals. Great service and ambience. This place absolutely deserves 5 star!

I. A.

Great service, arguably the best pizza in Sydney.

R. D.

We had the charcuterie board to share which was absolutely fantastic. I have the wagyu rib for my main. The meat was cooked to perfection, very soft but had a nice crisper edge to it. Meal was 10/10. The price is also quite reasonable given the quality of the food and location. Very nice atmosphere as well. Would definitely return.

L. B.

Good food a bit pricey!! Food, wine and dessert were not always what we had ordered. Twice charged for dessert. Luckily our friends were great company.

H. L.

Sensational Birthday Dinner for Nicole at Corso Brio in Barangaroo - food was superb and the service from Matias amazing . Definitely recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🔥🔥 #corsobrio #exceptionalfood #caringservice

J. R.

Excellent Italian 🇮🇹, June 19, World Martini Day

S. G.

We have dined at this establishment twice, one lunch and one dinner, staff very courteous and friendly, the only possible small criticism would be that our lunches were only warm and pasta needs to be hot, and when they returned they were still only warm, but overall a lovely experience.regards Shaun.

A. V.

Very good arancini, pizza and rocket & pear salad. Lovely wait staff. Try the chilli oil and fresh chillies - potent! And the Mode Nature mocktail is definitely a winner.

C. C.

Tasty bruschetta, would have liked to eat lunch here rather than breakfast. Typical Sydney prices for brunch.

O.

I had dinner last night there , wow menu is priced very reasonable and every waiter is beyond professional service was amazing food was beyond amazing . The truffle gnocchi is what we ordered with cocktails and pizza everything was made fresh and very tasty . I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting to eat down at barangaroo will be back soon there !!

P. S.

Professional staff, nice bar and unbelievable bakery 🥯

D. M.

Amazing food and italian products. Didn't eat like that for a lot of time. The staff is so friendly. And the restaurant is perfect.

E. S.

I love this place. So nice. Just like stepping out in Italy somewhere. Thank you for the amazing service and fabulous food.

A. S.

I love this place! Relaxed atmosphere with excellent food. Service is friendly and welcoming. This is a must. Coconut panna cotta to die for! I'll be back again and again.

S. N.

Best brekkie ever. Also an amazing stock of aged balsamic vinegar. Interesting place to spend time and a great place for food and coffee

S. F.

We throughly enjoyed our dinner at Bel and brio, place I always wanted to go for a meal. This is my second visit and the staffs never fail on giving top notch service. This is also our first meal out after COVID19 which was great. Matias was really friendly and equally professional in service. We are glad to return home happy.

C. M.

Friendly staff but not very attentive. Menu lacks vegan choices. They have the fine dining area called Corso Brio, which are the photos with table clothes, the Bel brio is the causal menu serving 'bar food menu'. More pizza, some pasta and antipasti. Vibe and decor is really nice though.

W.

Cemented right at the junction, this well-lit classy, glass panelled Restaurant just catches the eyes of any passer-by (including myself). Decided to sit down and this gentlemen of a waiter dressed in suit (yacoubo his name, I definitely spelt it wrongly apologies), patiently sat us down and recommended me a chocolate lava cake and settled us down when I asked for an outdoor seat in the middle of a windy winter afternoon. His simple gesture and politeness will have me returning in the future, definitely, to try out the awesome selection and decor of a bar in the restaurant too. 10/10 service and dedication to customer.

R. W.

Excellent service from Matias and his team. Very attentive with our meals and beverages. Brilliant food and did a great job for my birthday with organising a cake with my wife. Very very happy customer would 100% come again and recommend to my friends. Really good wine menu aswell :)

R. K.

Had an amazing fine dine experience. I would definitely recommend this place. Ideal for partners, friends and high end clients. ( request for formal dining) We did indeed feel very well looked after.

M. R.

Perfect location for people watching, seated at any of the outside tables. Very friendly and professional waiters. Happy hour between 3-6pm. Extensive wine list and excellent pizza from the menu.

S. M.

The vibe in the main bar is better than the dining room. The degustation was great until the beef and dessert. Which was such a shame as the dishes were amazing before that. All in all it wasn't bad just those dishes and the speed in which they came out. Ill be coming back but just not to the alacarte section and not for the degustation.

C. A.

I booked the cellar. An amazing and intimate way to spend a birthday. The service was second to none. Jacopo and Massimo were amazing. My friends and I sat and enjoyed a 4 course meal surrounded by wine. The food was beautifully presented and tasted the way it looked! Yum. I would come back and have more. I highly recommend coming here. Enjoy being spoilt but still having the privacy you crave.

Z. K.

Amazing food, great service, communication and friendly staff. A really nice atmosphere, would definitely recommend for small dinners and large gatherings. Pasta and pizza was definitely a highlight!

A. L.

We stumbled across this fantastic restaurant on a recent trip to Darling Harbour. The service was excellent the staff were really welcoming & the food was amazing!!! We loved it so much we went back again the following night. The carpaccio took us back to Positano Italy, and the pavlova took my friend back to his childhood. We live in Melbourne we would fly to Sydney just to eat there..... absolutely amazing

E. N.

Excellent catering service, food and display. Will definitely use again.

M. T.

Had such a nice evening here, the atmosphere was perfect and the food was delicious at such a good value. Our waiter Matias was really attentive and professional and helped us choose an amazing bottle of wine to go with our meal.

J. I.

We had an amazing Family lunch at the Restaurant this week. Great food and perfect service from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. Reasonably priced and generous serves of beautiful fresh Italian food.

K. M.

Was there last week on Melbourne Cup Day. Such a vibrant, fantastic atmosphere, the staff were excellent, food was great, happy vibes. Will be back with our group of fijian ladies.

E. F.

Great hospitality!! Always very welcoming and serves food to perfection. Staff recognise you after a few visits - always making an effort to better each experience. Good job guys.

S. R.

The staff and restaurant is amazing. Very busy and got a good vibe but menu needs more choices, definitely more choices needed in the pasta section. The wine and pizza we had was lovely

T. H.

A thoroughly enjoyable experience. I had breakfast and lunch here and both were great! The pizza I had for lunch was wood fired, great dough and really great salami. The Sicilian Skillet breakfast was great! Fabulous coffee delivered by Italian staff. It’s expensive, which is why it doesn’t get 5 stars but it is really good! There is also a deli/supermarket for expensive but high quality produce!

J. M.

Service was fantastic with great care taken by the staff and very friendly. Food was amazing - we had both pizza and pasta and everything was fabulous. The tiramisu dessert was also amongst the best I’ve had!

P. J.

Food was delicious, though the venue was very noisy.

B. C.

My girlfriend and i dined at Bel & Brio Saturday night and had a divine experience. The waitstaff were attentive and polite and the food was amazing, overall was a great experience. Would highly recommend Bel & Brio.

G. N.

Just wanted to congratulate your Assistant Manager Matias. He has been a super star from the minute we walked into Bel and Brio. He was the first to even notice us and get us a table. His professionalism was on point. He was polite and well mannered while serving us, making sure a picky eater got what I wanted even if it mean that he got into trouble with the general manager. Please Congratulate Matias in all aspects of his work! We are beyond happy with his service.

L. Z.

Friendly staff, food is ok. My friends got some pizza which were good but in my chicken salad there was way too much vinegar. The prices for the cocktails and the wines are definitely too high

K. Y.

Had company's functions and dinners with colleagues there, they have a good selection of wines and beers. Their Italian food is good too. I like their concept of having a grocery store next to the restaurant.

L. K.

Bel & Brio is the perfect place to relax after a long day. The waitstaff is very attentive without being intrusive. We enjoyed our pizza so much that we ordered a second ! Thank you Matias , for looking after our every need and making our evening most enjoyable. We plan on visiting B & B every time we are in Sydney !

S. H.

Thank you for a great night! Will be back. In addition, the ambience of the place is great. The price is also very reasonable, will try to visit with more friends. Cheers!

V. C.

Had great lunch party some time ago! Food was great and so was the service. Love the European cafe feel as in somewhere in Italt or Paris. Also visited there for afternoon tea 4 number of times. Many cakes to choose from... Will be back.

p. k. m.

Good ambience and nice food.

L. P.

We recently hosted a family birthday at Bel and brio and the staff went out of their way to accommodate for all our needs including food and beverages. When the weather turned for the worst the staff swiftly moved us inside. highly recommend and the antipasto platters / cheeseboards olives and breads were of a substantial serving and incredibly fresh.

J. P.

Comfortable atmosphere that is rustic and enjoyable. Great spot to meet up with friends in a great part of Sydney. The staff was efficient, but slightly impassive... overall the food was good. However, you're not given much food for what you pay. I left still pretty hungry.

C. A. W.

Lovely food, well crafted. Excellent service.

F. P.

Bel & Brio is an excellent restaurant. The food is truly amazing, the staff and services are absolutely outstanding, and the wine and cocktail are brilliant. It's a beautiful restaurant and an wonderful dining experience and I recommend Bel & Brio to all my friends and family.

M. C.

My love of delis and restaurants come together at this amazing little place. Their displays of panettone, biscuits, chocolates especially at Christmas time are just beautiful. The restaurant offers a fabulous menu of Italian produce. The staff are fantastic and the ambiance and decor create a special vibe. We love going back again and again.

L. 4.

Good food and service

A. S.

Our extended Leadership Team had our dinner function in the private dining room on level 1 on Tuesday night. There was 15 of us and Gabriella our very charming and highly efficient waitress made our dinner event a wonderful success. Nothing was too much trouble and she anticipated our needs beautifully. The food was served together. Not only was it hot, it was delicious and beautifully presented. I have only had breakfast at Bel & Brio before so I was not aware of the additional private dining areas that were available to book. I will definitely be coming back and telling my friends!

L. S.

I go to Bel & Brio often. Mostly for coffee (or tea) meetings for work, but on occasion I also take clients and family for lunch. I have yet to attend the happy hour, but will be doing so soon. I always find the food and service to be of the highest quality. I really enjoy the classy, Italian atmosphere!

G. J.

This fine dining restaurant is amazing! Located in Barangaroo there is an outdoor section which has a more casual menu including pizzas that look great. We dined inside in the formal section and it’s amazing! The staff open a heavy wood door and you go inside to a secluded and romantic area which is lovely. The decor is amazing and even includes $700 mood lighting lamps on the table which waiters can adjust with the press of a wireless button. The food here is fine dining and worthy of hitting the top 20 in Sydney. Careful thought and consideration had clearly been put into the menu. There are plenty of choices for entree’s, main and dessert. The wine list is quite extensive, but one thing I noticed is with all 3 bottles we chose they said they were out of stock and suggested something else. For which were all more expensive. Not cool. The service here was good, but I feel we had a particularly good waiter who paid attention to two people out our table who did not speak English. He conversed with them in French and made them feel very welcome. He was very friendly but oversold way to much with claims of the espresso martini’s being Sydney’s best and other bold claims. Overall this is a lovely restaurant worth trying at some point. I’d say the NOLA around the corner is better, but this place will give it a good run for its money. Speaking of money, our meal and drinks can to $1,000. So it’s not cheap. If you want cheap go somewhere else.

J. M.

Such a lovely place. Me and my friends start the night at the bar, really good cocktails and spirit list. After had our dink we moved in corso brio, the new dining room, staff and food were awesome! Thanks to everyone!!! Wine list is impressive!

L. S.

Every time I come to Sydney I at least once eat here. I Love the atmosphere and the beautifully cooked food. The wine selection is mind boggling. I highly recommend eating and drinking here you will not be displeased.

Y. H.

Excellent!!! In every way. I love the convenience of the casual dining style in the kitchen and pizzeria and the formal dining is wonderful as well. Both of our dinners were so good. Service exceptional. Will not disappoint.

M. S.

Great restaurant. Matiace was really nice and friendly, with fantastic service. Pastas are homemade, which I loved! Will go back more often 😊

C. S.

Love cheese platter !!!!! So generous cheese they serve. Bit pricy... but yummy. I also love squid pasta =)

A. L.

Staying at the Four Seasons Hotel for my birthday weekend. Ordered the Boscaiola and Arrabbiata pizzas, arrived hot and they were both absolutely delicious! We will hopefully be able to visit the restaurant next time:)

M. m.

Just had the best day ever celebrating Melbourne cup with friends at Bel & Brio. This is our second year and will be back again next year. Staff and food were excellent. We had the package deal, champagne and drinks kept coming all day and so much food best pace yourself. The atmosphere was great and highly recommend this venue for any event.

J. C.

Assistant Manager, Matias was friendly, helpful with menu suggestions and above all, exceptionally professional. The food was excellent. We had the recommended Burita Pizza as entre followed by the prawn pasta and rocket salad. Will definitely come again

B. M.

Had last minute dinner plans with colleges, they were able to fit in 8 of us no problems on a busy Friday night. Excellent service and attentive staff, great selection of whiskeys and delicious pizza! Will be back

Y. A.

Service is always spot on and pizza are the best we found in Sydney. Incredibly consistent. Months after months they never dissapoint us! Highly recommend to pay a visit. The team is incredibly managed and once again they maintain the high quality over time!!

T. T.

What an amazing experience!! We were a group of 10 plus 2 little ones in the private dining room and ordered the Degustation Menu. What a culinary experience! Everyone loved it and the service by Gabriele was first class! We all left promising to return again ASAP!

A. B.

Fabulous place. Awesome service, exceptionally good food and great wine selection. Highly recommended.

N. H.

Best Italian food I have ever had. The service was impeccable, such sincere and lovely waiters/waitress. Already planning my next visit!

N. F.

Food and environment was good, nice place for brunch but the service was a bit slow & had to ask for the bill multiple times. Service wasn’t bad, just not quite on par with the cost (higher cost food should be met with higher service standards).

P. S.

One of my favourite restaurants in Sydney. Consistently excellent food and service, and I love the atmosphere. The deli/store next door is always tempting to top up my pantry too.

T. M.

Since the beginning of 2019 I have been going to Bel and Brio at least three times a day for coffee. I can say that everytime each of the talented staff consistently makes the best coffee in the entire world. The service is beyond excellent, I would consider each and every one of the staff to be a close and personal friend. It is the perfect escape from the office when one would rather be on an Italian Holiday. I give the highest of recommendations.

M. H.

The friendliest most efficient staff with the best Happy Hour in Sydney. It feels like you're sitting in a high-end 5-star bar yet it's just $6 for good quality preservative-free draught beer, or wine, or spirits. 4pm-6pm Happy Hour including Saturdays. The wait staff and bar-staff are so happy and make our day. What a great deal and great place.

M. K.

Brilliant. Service is prompt, food is stella, menu is attuned to their strengths. The bruschetta could be a little larger. Besides that it's fantastic.

L. S.

This place is spotless! Seriously! * The food is great and trust me, I can tell, the pizza is probably the best one in the whole CBD. * When it comes to drinks, half of the times I don't even have to ask... Not to mention the quality of their wines: have a look at the shop, as there are quite a lot of varieties at standard price, and you definitely do not want to miss the Primitivo ❤️ * Coffee here is also good. The espresso is made just the Italian way and I can't ever leave without having one first. * Breakfast too would be my daily choice if I only lived closer! * Worked well for a few dates in the past 😜 and you're literally half block away from the Darling Harbour

G.

Popped in for a latte, while the missus had a croissant with cheese and a chai latte. All very good. But what is more memorable was the excellent table service; friendly and attentive, without being intrusive. Would come back (though I can't comment on value-for-money: the wife picked up the bill - the second time in 6 months!)

H. C.

I love bel & Brio. I’ve been there twice time for my work Xmas function and on Valentine’s Day. Their service was amazing and also their foods so tasty. They presented their foods on our table with a stunning presentation on the plate. I just love it over there and love everything about bel & Brio. The environment and the staff was very nice and friendly. We will definitely going back there again on our wedding anniversary coming up soon. Thank u so much bel & Brio for making every occasion so special for us.

J. d. H. (.

Delicious food in generous servings. Quite expensive, but a nice place for a date night nevertheless.

S. N.

Bel and Brio was a fantastic place to enjoy a great tasting dinner. The staff were friendly and professional and helped us choose the perfect wine to go with our food. The atmosphere is comfortable and you can always enjoy having a browse through the store. Yes, it might be a little pricey but what else would you expect in the prime location of Barangaroo? Would happily go back there again.

D. M.

I've been there already many times in the last months. You can laterally live in Bel and Brio. I've tried both, dining experience with my wife and bar/bistro side with some mates. Food to die for, and the spaghetti crab... the best! And the pizza is an authentic one. Drink side you have everything, wines, beers, spirits, classic and signature cocktails. Service professional and charming. The ambiance is top notch!!! Cellar with a broad selection of wine in their cellar (some really rare french and italian). Marketplace with premium and every day products in the market. Back soon!

C. W.

Great cafe, restaurant/bar and deli combined to make this place a really special experience. Grab a sandwich, foccasia or sit down for a more relaxed dining experience, it's all there to enjoy. Service is excellent and no one is pressed✅highly recommended

L. B.

My whole dining experience was fabulous from start to fi ish. The wait staff were impecably dressed, the food and coffee very, very good The service was 5 star. I highly recommend, I will be back.

P. L.

Having a good cup of coffee in this city it's easy, that is why paying too much for a decent cup isn't good when you can find better close by. Had a go at one of the cakes (they have a good number of options) and I can only say that the carrot cake has spent too much time in the fridge and too little in my memory. If it wasn't for the service this review could have less stars.

g. j.

Amazing service. Great ambience. Tasty food.

K. W.

Came here on a Thursday evening around 7pm. Not very busy, quite relaxing. The four of us just came for some bubbly and beer, with a cheeseboard and bread. It was a short visit but it was delightful. The staff were friendly, and the cheeseboard they gave us was a very generous portion. I'd definitely come back to try more of their food.

C. P.

First time in Australia, we decided to check out how is an Italian restaurant in this part of the world, we have been suggested Bel&Brio as one of the best in town and.. well, unbelievable! The food is real authentic modern Italian rich in flavor, healthy and fresh, we tried 5 different dishes, outstanding!! Beautiful service, and the ambiance elegant but at the same time comfortable, for sure best Italian food in Sydney!! We will be back.

M. M.

Really enjoyed my takeaway pizza!

R. B.

This food was spectacular. The Tarra is the best I have ever eaten. We took recommendations from our server who was awesome. Lamb is a must. Plus they called after we had left to tell us they had overcharged us and had to repay us! That is a first!!!

P. T.

Really amazing experience with friendly staffs and huge selection of wines....my favourite spot to make my weekend✨✨

J. H.

Interesting deli selection. Impressive French wine selection.

P. B.

The restaurant was buzzing when we arrived but managed to squeeze in a seat at the bar. We thoroughly enjoyed our food and wine, the decor and atmosphere. Service was great for us, no issues what so ever. I've noted some other bad reviews of the service, however the place has only been operating for a few weeks so a few glitches are to be expected. It was all good for us so would definitely recommend giving this place a try!

L. V.

Superb service. Pizzas are on point. Pistachio tiramisu is highly recommended

A. D.

Really great place amongst the corporates. Delicious food at not unattainable prices. Good, attentive service. Not a bad vibe inside, though there's not much to see when you sit outside (unless you like to people watch). Extensive wine collection!

P. G.

Was there on Friday night for what was meant to be a couple of drinks - turned into a stayer for the whole night and it was a great night enjoyed by all of us. I can't recall what we ate, as we spent more time drinking, and I prefer to forget what we drank as it was a bill to forget :-) What I can remember is we stayed :-) and that the staff were fun, not too pushy, kept it light and tried to accommodate our requests (vegetarian, table moves etc).

V. D.

We went on Sunday afternoon. Coffee was great, and service was next level. The orange cake was delicious. Great location, easy parking.

G. N.

Great selection of drinks, Italian food, and cakes.

C. B.

Last night we had the Degustation menu. I have eaten here a few times for lunch but last night we were in the dining room. The food was wonderful and the service was excellent too. Paul was very keen to talk wine which I was happy to as well. We did the matching wine package and their selection was wonderful. From amazing Chardonnay to Chateauneuf du pape my wife and I had lovely night. Highly recommend.

H. F.

Excellent service all round including a high degree of responsiveness by email which is super helpful for organising large events, booking changes and work functions, and lovely gestures such as a little dish of olives which arrives with a casual after-work drink. Impressive and keeps me coming back.

G. M.

Been twice in the last month, by far the best venue for bar/restaurant/entertainment! Extensive selection behind the bar with an awesome atmosphere, live bands, private dining, royal class servicing and exceptionally high class food quality and presentation. Will definitely be utilising Bel and Brio for future private/business functions! Thank you!

V. N.

Food here is pretty decent for the price. The pizzas and pastas are delicious. Also a great place for business meeting or a casual catchup with friends. Instagram: @valerie.n.eats

D. R.

Amazing atmosphere as soon as you walk into bel & brio. The music is always classy, the staff are friendly and have warm personalities, and the coffee is outstanding! The best in Barangaroo and is the go to for a coffee.

M. D. M.

Such an amazing experience. Beautiful venue and great staff! Very friendly and professional. The food is unbelievable, I had the tuna salad which was very tasty and refreshing at the same time. My partner had the risotto milanese and also that was great. Little bit al dente as it should be. We were impressed and of course would recommend Bel&Brio. Ciao!

T. H. M.

A wonderful dining experience in Barangaroo - amazing Italian food with attentive service and detailed wine list with by-the-glass options. Coffee amazing. Reasonable prices and no Sunday surcharge. Could not fault anything about Bel & Brio, already planning next visit.

K. T.

Love this cafe in Barangaroo! It's got a small gourmet grocery connected to it, and if you need a last minute gift or some fab tea or coffee for the office, this is your spot! I have meetings at Bel & Brio and the staff are great. Coffees are done very well here, but I've never tried the food! The nearby walk along the water is always interesting, and with The Donald now making an appearance it's drawing all walks down to the area.

J. S.

I've been coming here on and off for about 3 years now and the service is always good and any problem is resolved without any problem. The food is always nice too. I recently had the best steak and reasonably priced compared to other venues

C. t. A.

I’ve been going to Bel&Brio for years. The food is great but what makes this place special are the people who work there. Big thanks to Matias, the manager, for taking care of us!

E. T.

I had a lovely experience tonight. I hardly ever go to Barangaroo as I usually dine in the hub of the city but I would definitely come back here. Staff were attentive and friendly. The ambience is lively but not overly noisy. The bar looks amazingly stocked and there's a thick book of wines to choose from. I enjoyed the charcuterie board (we were a table of 3 people and this was quite filling when coupled with other starters). The barramundi was also lovely. I like sitting at places with a good distance from other tables so found the layout pleasant here. All in all, a good go to place.

N. S.

A pretty cool and rustic place. Comfortable yet shiek. Our waiter was very nice and sociable. We came to give their woodfire pizza a go, which was actually cooked really well and had great flavour and all at a reasonable price.

C. M.

Just wow! What a quality experience, food, service and atmosphere was just spectacular, I love fine dining and have dined all over the world, this i must say is in my top 10! my mouth is still watering from the oysters and salmon :)

a. b.

Great food with excellent service. It was my first time but I am surely going for the best breakfast I ever had. Thankyou for your service.

G. L.

A delightful experience! A lovely location, knowledgeable and really fun and friendly staff, comfortable chairs, a great selection of wonderful food and extensive selection of drinks whether it be wine, cocktails or spirits. Would I recommend to my friends- absolutely!

J. C. R.

extremely recommanded, the food is amazing and you can taste the quality of the raw materials (very recommanded the new beef shoulder), the atmosphere is great especially night time in the new dining room, service excellent in pure italian style. no problem with kids.

P. T.

We have been there for breakfast, and can't rate it highly enough. Everything is so fresh, especially the eggs and bread, and the coffee is the best I have ever had. I feel like I am in Europe when I go there, the staff are very good.

N. M.

Absolutely fantastic experience yesterday for lunch. Had the crab pasta for Lunch was delicious. And a glass of Pinot Noir suggested by Gabriele went perfect with the meal. Extensive wine list and the food menu is modern and stylish.

C. A.

I have been there last monday for a business Lunch and i found this place as a little gem, the interior stylish and the atmosphere were great and the staff made us really comfortable with such of high service standard. Me and my colleagues we had bruschetta, antipasto board and beef carpaccio, everything was beyond our expectations. I definitely will be back Thanks bel& brio🤗

G. L.

Great food and very nice service. All my friends and I love Bel & Brio and have visited this restaurant for several times. Definitely will find ourselves another time to enjoy our dinner in Bel & Brio again.

A. M.

We were very well looked after by Mr Richerdson. I had a requirement for vegetarian cheese and am very picky about my ingridients. Not only did he personally show me all the information that I wanted, the head chef was also brought out to reassure. This is the first time I have been in a restaurant and felt completely comfortable with everything I ate. Who said good old fashioned service was dead. Amazing

C. D.

Great selection of spirits to be had either neat or in a tasty coxktail. A perfect place for the nightcap to finish a great night out. Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful staff to top off the experience. Also have some great sweets for those looking to have a small sugar hit.

G. N.

Had a dinner in the new dining room, they call it CorsoBrio I think, excellent experience, the atmosphere they created is incredible low lights and nice Blues songs, and all this comes with great italian food and a friendly staff. Our waiter was Paul, he has been great all night, I actually was getting upset when I asked for the bill because it wouldn't arrive, but that was justify from the fact that instead Paul took time to bring a surprise Birthday cake for my girlfriend, she was so happy!!! He definitely made our night!! Thank you guys and keep it up :)

N. S.

Nice atmosphere and good service. The portions and the price tags attached to them is out of line. Definitely overpriced for what it is. Still a nice experience but we won't be back again.

S. E.

Dining in at its finest!!The venue absolutely breathtaking, food is perfection on a plate. Thank you for the wonderful service Francesco, we left feeling very well looked after.

f.

Decent casual place to head to for coffee and pastries. The supermarket section is a little average. I wish they would do away with all the regular supermarket brands and really shift their focus to boutique brands and products that you can't get elsewhere. This would really add to the value of the place and differentiate it a bit more from your regular store.

S. H. (.

I had my team dinner here about 5 weeks ago, and I still have a good feeling about the great service we received. And that's a really good reason I'll be visiting again soon. Great work guys.

C. H.

Fabulous food, service and atmosphere.

D. L.

We enjoyed a Valentine's dinner here. It was dimly lit and romantic. The food was of very high quality.

J. C.

Bel & Brio is a one of those establishments that never ceases to amaze. On each and every occasion the service received is outstanding. The floor manager Viviana is always welcoming with a huge smile and ensures that evening is memorable. Her wait staff are very professional and so friendly which always makes the dining experience a pleasureable one. On this occasion we dined with a friend who fell in love with the place and the food. Speaking of food, the potato gnocchi were divine. The half roasted chicken was succulent and melted in your mouth. The cannelloni were a hit as well. Whether your dining in for coffee and cakes or the woodfire pizzas or enjoying the e la carte menu you will not be disappointed in any way. Also if you are fortunate enough to have the pleasure of meeting the owner Mark you will feel that you are so appreciated as a customer to his business. Mark is an absolute Gentleman and will go above and beyond to ensure your dining experience is the best you can have. A huge Thankyou to Mark, Viviana and all the staff at Bel & Brio. Five stars without a doubt

Such a lovely place to eat and have a long catch-up. Staff are really friendly and accommodating, there's never a push to get you out the door, and the tea menu is particularly great.

T. J.

Plesant surprise finding this restaurant. The food, wine, service is amazing and second to none! Looking forward to taking my wife there for a romantic dinner so she can experience Bel & Brio also 🥇

S. F.

Nice food, steep prices. We spent a couple of hours in it for a business lunch, the restaurant was so ridiculously COLD inside, that I had an hard time enjoying my lunch!

R. H. I.

The waiters are really snappy dressers! Great place to sit in the window and people watch the locals. Very well made Italian food and drinks. Great coffee too.

K. T.

Always excellent coffee and pleasant service in a gourmet deli setting! :)

R. B.

Amazing food. Well priced. Received a high level of service not usually seen in Sydney. I was very impressed and will be back!

F. s. l.

Lunch with friends there yesterday - fine dinning style and service at affordable prices. The service was pure Italian charm, warmth and alacrity.

c. s.

Pizza is the best! We had two pizzas

J. L. V.

Popped in a few times for casual lunch. Really good pizza and mezze platters. Staff attentive. Nice place

T. T.

One of the best Pizza I had in Sydney!

Was busy when I visited on Sat lunch. Service can be better, as we ordered a orange juice and a diet coke, but the waiter even repeat the order but what got delivered to us is 2 orange juice and no coke. Located so close to the water, as expected the price is not cheap. The food looks good but taste is only average. Even friends order of medium rare steak, it came out that large parts of the steak is rare while others are medium. Barangaroo is easy to access as the recently opened overpass from Wynyard station makes it convenient to walk straight there. It's close to ferry wharf too. There are nearby other restaurants as well, for comparison.

M. H.

Great atmosphere, phenomenal staff and amazing food!!

S. P.

Great place for wines . A wide range to select from and excellent recommendations from the staffs.

T. M.

Great service, great food, great experience. A little bit pricey, but the price is definitely traceable in the quality. Try their cakes and you’ll never want any other cake!!!

K. L.

Had French toast for breakfast. It doesnt look as good as it tastes. Pretty yummy French toast. Coffee is not bad.

R. P.

Excellent Italian in the centre of Barangaroo. Try the Caprese!

A. C.

Came here for dinner with 3 friends. Not sure if it was just because we were sitting just outside the main restaurant area (only table available) but the service here was VERY slow. Bel and Brio turned it around d though and offered free dessert and coffee to compensate. Food was beautiful.

C. M.

Environment 4/5, service level 2/5. Order three coffees.waiters look at you without smile and give you a feeling that you are an alien (or Asian). Don't think they are trained enough to entitle the $$$ level of restaurant.

K. A.

Great atmosphere with matching food and wine list. Ideal location for groups with their generous and value for money set menus. Highly recommend!

j. r.

Nice place but could do better . Tuscan ribs arrived with cold carrots and not one salt shaker on one table in table in the place . Please guys get it right I want you to make a success of it . The bar is awesome and if you like a drink there is plenty of good whiskeys and whisky to enjoy .

K. T. E.

The only reason for that rating was because of the unhappy staff that were around me who wouldn't even bother to get things done. Is it generally slow or was it cause I was the only brown guy...how about a smile? The food was excellent and the coffee was okay but the uncomfortableness and unwelcoming Nature towards me...I'm not entering that place again.

H. K.

We had a function of 15 in the private dining room for work. It was a fantastic experience from planning to completion. Mylene in particular was a pleasure to deal with. We will definitely be returning for future functions.

s. a.

Whilst the service was good and restaurant is very well set up, prices are expensive and the place charges service charge.

C. N.

Was there for happy hour then went on for dinner in their restaurant. Could not complain about the service as the staff were very friendly and nothing was a problem. Food was tasty, again staff were great.

M. B.

Not sure why reviews are so low, food and service in the dining room are excellent. Pricey, and the waiters will try a hard upsell, but they are charming in the way they do it.

M. C.

Fantastic staff. Very welcoming and helpful. Venue itself is very welcoming too. Pork Ragu was perfect for a winter's day.

O.

Delicious food great cocktails. beautiful friendly staff. Great atmosphere

K. D. L.

A trip here will make you feel like you are in Italy! From the outdoor alfresco dining options, to the food choices and coffee / drinks they serve, everything is done with an Italian feel. The fitout and ambience is up market, making this place a nice place for any time of the day. The service is great, however being located in prime position means you will be paying top dollar. (E.g. 2 coffees + bottle of Pellegrino water = $20)

A. H.

Special offers and super service (Carlo many thanks) in a typical Italian restaurant with very delicious meal and antipasti. ... one of the best pizza in Sydney. ... also close to the best Italian icecream by rivarena gelato 😀🍸👍high quality cost a little bit more 👍

A. W.

A nice atmosphere and great location. The food was average... nothing that you couldn't get at any local café/restaurant for a much cheaper price. The staff were all easy on the eyes

G. K.

I pop in there to get a drink sometimes and it is really a very beautiful exotic convenience store that just also happens to have an upscaled restaurant attached. This is one of its kind I've seen around Sydney, the goods it carry are mostly from around the world which is very exciting. If you like trying new things this place is your 'hood'! They have cherry coke last time I was there! Very cool. I love my just dropping in my lunch break and find something different to try! Some hit and misses but that won't deter us adventurers!

G. L.

Great location. Good food. Smartly dressed staff. Upmarket decor.

F. F.

The food is just magical, the coffee is absolutely perfect and service super friendly. To conclude, i really enjoyed with my friends in this restaurant. FF.

M. S.

Amazing food and wines selection! Great place for business lunches, and family dinners. The service is great with with all staff very attentive. I would highly recommend this place.

U. S.

The atmosphere was amicable, well dressed waiters and a european styled decor. The food was passable. A good place to go to if you're in the area and need somewhere to sit and eat

R. P.

Great option for Italian food and great wine selection. Service is also top notch, extremely polite and helpful. We will definitely come back.

D. U.

Good place for coffee. Also great for drinks after work.

G. W.

I love going here. Good looking Italian waiting staff. Great coffee. Arguably serves the best cheesecake in Sydney.

a. f.

Food and service was amazing. wine selection was perfectly matched with our food. highly recommend this restaurant and will be back for sure

D. C.

I use the supermarket 2 to 3 times a week. Huge range of foods I don't find elsewhere. Quirky upmarket atmosphere with the beststaff. They really make the place fun to visit.

M. F.

Just ok they realy need to check if their cups are clean before serving, I had to get the to chang it as it still had lipstick on then.

P. L.

Bel and Brio is one of the most amazing please I’ve ever been in that area. It makes all easy for you! Having an unique marketplace to do your grocery and find items that its hard to believe you can find in Australia. Just in a second you have the chance to be served with great coffee and food! I have tried all the meals eaither with firends or family! Don’t miss it and give it a try!

N. K.

Good ambiance, excellent wine list and happy hour. However service was a tad average abs the cheese platter was outrageously overpriced.

G. J. M.

Delightful lunch, splendid service and a very friendly atmosphere presented by all staff.

S. V.

Very beautiful and cosy place. They have some vegan options in the store, like vego bars, vego spread, some vegan raw sweets, vegan yoghurt and ice cream. It's a pity they don't have anything vegan in the restaurant.

M. B.

Great food, as always. Very average service all around

N. E.

Came here for a date night with hubby. Food was average. They ask you for a tip when you go to pay for your meal which is very expensive. This is Australia don't make people feel like we have to pay a tip by asking us too.

A. T.

Pizzas are delicious! The venue has a fun vibe and the staff are friendly. Wonderful place for a catch up with friends after work.

I. X.

As an Italian, I went twice to order a takeaway pizza and it was really nice indeed, easy to digest and not burnt. To my opinion one of the best pizza around Sydney.

S. W.

French toast was very good. Make sure to order the bacon. Coffee was great too.

K. Z.

Great service..nice brekky and reasonably priced.. Friendly staff and attached to this place a great fresh produce supermarket

C. C.

Great service and amazing food! The atmosphere in the private dinning room was perfect. I would definitely go back.

Absolutely amazing place, the food and drink were faultless!! Only questionable note is the front of house she wasnt very welcoming and professional.

L. M.

Walking round here you get a real buzz , it’s full of life great restaurants , fun people . Stunning

S. G.

Great place to grab a drink, coffee, or snack. Plenty of seating available and a good range of options to choose from. Gets busy during peak so you may struggle to get a table for a group larger than 4.

c. H.

I Recently discovered Bel & Brio located in the Heart of Barangaroo. What a gem of a cafe and now restaurant. The food is truly delicious and organically produced as well . The team of Italians serving their love of food are authentic and friendly. Great for early breakie / lunch for business or locals. Menu is unusual. Molte Grazie. .

A. S.

We had a wonderful morning at Bel and Brio. The staff were incredibly thoughtful and kind. The food was delicious. I wish I could eat there every week.

J. W.

Great food, drinks and super service!

Y. Y.

Staff is friendly, good environment, ambiance and location. Pizza and quick bite is good to go with drinks but the main is over price, portion is small and ingredients wasn’t outstanding for the price.

D. A.

Excellent location and great atmosphere!!! Very classy and stylish venue. Loved the cocktails! Definitely I will come back!!!

W. M.

Classy establishment at reasonable prices. Expect a $40 lunch if you include a glass of wine. Busy all day Sunday, but tables turnover.
