Comments of Silvester's
J. L.One of best hotel restaurants in Sydney.
Staffs are professional, welcoming, and very thoughtful and helpful.
Most importantly food is warm, tasty, and fresh to bring your lost appetite back.
Recommended!!
E. S.Great breakfast, tasty, quality need working on especially for a five star hotel, service is a little slow, extreme price for coffee.
J. L.Really enjoyed lunch at Silvester's, the food was delicious. The crab and avocado roll was a great way to start our meal, the meat for our main dishes were really tender with flavours that complimented it well. Desserts were fun with different layers beyond what you could see. All topped with friendly service, I would go back for dinner!
M. L.Another awesome #firsttable dinner. Marriott hotel eatery - very spacious decor, loved the feeling of our space to move around comfortably. Open plan kitchen.
Booked: 2 families- four adults and two little ones with high chairs.
Our waitress was very cute, attentive and always happily smiling, who also happens to be Vietnamese. Each dish she served she knew exactly everything in it! Thank you 😊
We ordered 2 Sydney rock oysters each, they we so so fresh, a main each and two desserts to share.
I had the slow cooked gorgeous beef cheeks bedded in the silky yummy mash & fig sauce. We shared two sides as well. One of the dish was a sirloin beef and it looked kinda boring it had nothing supporting it but a small cup of sauce - just saying.
This night was accompanied with a nicely chilled bottle of Sav Blanc.
Over all very nice fine food and service. Kids friendly is a bonus! Thank you for the complimentary desserts too. 👌🏼
H. Y.Good service, fairly tasty food, some dishes were overly salty. Highlight was the matcha desert. Portion size is on the smaller side. I would expect more for the price, although it can be good valued if on a special deal.
G. H.The place is located very close to Circular Quay train station, at most a 5 minute walk.
The place truly is fine dining and the customer service is exceptional. All the staff were extremely nice and professional. Our waiter Brenda, she was extremely courteous, friendly and gave us great recommendations on what to order and explained to us nicely how the menu worked. She would also continually check up on us just to make sure that everything was okay.
The two entrees that we got were the Vannella Burrata which is like a creamy cheese with a similar texture to mozzarella with zucchini flowers and confit zucchini. We also got the Rockliff Spanner Crab which was wrapped around in avocado and was extremely delicious.
For the mains, we got the Glacier 51 Toothfish, Berkshire Pork Cheek & Hervey Bay Scallops and Riverina District Lamb Belly all of which were extremely delicious.
The fish was well flavoured and tender, the pork cheek was not rough and the lamb belly would just simply melt in your mouth. The lamb does have a bit of a gamy flavour but for me personally, I didn't mind it.
For desserts, we got the Uji Matcha Lava Tart, Milk Chocolate & Peanut Butter Ganache and Blood Orange Sorbet all of which once again, were faultless and delicious.
For the Blood Orange Sorbet, it is layered with some white chocolates at the bottom, followed by some cake and panna cotta followed by the sorbet. There's also a special spectacle for at the table as well with the waiter pouring liquid nitrogen into some coriander and crushing it to make a fine coriander powder to add to the top as well.
I'd definitely recommend this place if you are looking for some fine dining around Circular Quay and celebrating a special event or occasion. If you're planning to go here, definitely expect to pay a quite a bit but I assure you that you wouldn't be disappointed.
M. B.Came on a quiet Sunday night. Sylvester's had a calm and pleasant atmosphere. Service was lovely. Food was amazing and executed so perfectly. Tried all the desserts. Enjoyed them so much, forgot to take a picture - the chocolate/peanut butter one was a bit average but the rest were so so good! The cherry on top were the cutest little petit fours which could have been a dessert themselves on the menu. Definitely will be coming back.
R. Y.Excellent atmosphere.
Tried the pork belly special. I don't recommend it since, unlikely other pork bellies, it's mostly fat and very little meat. I can usually afford to scrape off the fat off the pork belly, however, in this case, I would only have the crackling if I had done so.
The taste was very nice though. Perhaps a little less salt would have been better.
Mushroom side was excellent. A good variety and quantity of mushrooms.
S. c. (.Within the Sydney Harbour Marriot is Silvester's restaurant, it is easily accessible through the hotel lobby. They have a Parisian Chef Raphael Szurek with experience working in Michellin Restaurants around the world. With an open dining area and kitchen you can see the chefs in action.
Silvester's restaurant is dedicated to using fresh local produce, we enjoyed a a glass of wine with our tasting, including a Seppelt Wines reisling, a Fickle Mistress pinot from central Otago NZ and a Saltram Barossa Shiraz. The wine paired nicely with a quality charcuterie board with a mix of cured meats including a delicious bresciola and fennel salami. We also tried the spanner crab and avocado roulade topped with grape fruit. It was nicely presented, however a little pricey for an entree.
For the main the toothfish and braised beef cheeks were both tasty options and prepared to perfection. For dessert a deconstructed pavlova, an Australian classic that would appeal to International visitors.
It does feel like you are dining in a hotel, the dining space is a little generic. However the open kitchen adds to the experience as do the waitstaff who are personable and provide quality service. There are quality menu options with experienced culinary skills on display and be prepared to pay a little extra for this.
E. T.Went here for dinner and tried the new summer menu by the Chef de Cuisine Raphael Szurek, and loved it! Most recommended are the Pork Belly or the squid ink risotto. The venue is classy, lovely for a date night, or even business & family gathering.
H. B.First time been here using #TheForkAu App. The interior of restaurant is beautiful as you would expect being inside the Marriott Hotel.
The staff are attentive, although I think they're use to dealing with tourists more than local dinners, we had numerous waiters coming to our table but didn't take our empty plates away till we ordered desert. So maybe that's something for management to look at training staff in that respect. It was only downside to experience.
Now the food Omgawd a must thanks to other reviewers is "Grim Brothers Beet" Salad it is absolutely tasty. As well as our other dishes like Braise Wagyu Beef Cheek and can't go wrong with fish. We also had oysters and what's cool is the kitchen has vertical garden where see chef plucking the plants or herbs for your dish.
Would I reconmend most definitely and would come again if they had special on #TheForkAu app or special lunch /dinner with friends/family.
I should also like management to acknowledge the young gentlemen on the front desk (blonde brunette guy) he perfect for interacting with people, I wished I got his name but we had dinner Monday 15th July 6pm. He was most professional.
A. C.If I could give 3/5 stars, that would be more appropriate.
The entree and mains were both fantastic, the flavours of the spanner crab and avocado together with small slivers of red grapefruit were complimentary and the tenderness and sweetness of the beef cheek met with the expectation of a restaurant that prides itself of meat dishes!
However, the sides of broccolini and shoestring fries cooled down very quickly so I could only make it halfway through both of these (my thinking is that the serve size was too large).
I was left sitting with empty (and half finished) plates on the table for what seemed a long time given there were six wait staff on the floor.
The alcohol free pre dinner cocktail tasted more like a glass of sugar syrup than the promised pear, mandarin, agave, rosemary, ginger beer. I was disappointed as I enjoyed this particular drink that last time I dined at Silvester's and the individual flavours were more distinct.
D. C.The staff was incredibly helpful and knowledgable about the menu. Great suggestions and explanations of dishes. Beautiful location and ambience. Would highly recommend through First Table.
K. O.Third time being here and it never disappoints. The menu changed slightly but it's still very enjoyable. The avocado spanner crab roll was executed beautifully. "Squid cabonara" was interesting. Toothfish is our favourite and we really love the new way with dashi. Definitely will be back next time! And thanks for the complementary petit four.
W. V.Service was decent, I was expecting to be given more advice given I was asked of it was my first time here. I didn't get the advice that serving sizes are small and no bread is provided so please order more. Made me look cheap after the food arrived. That said the complimentary petit fours were very tasty, which helped ss the broccoli and wagyu was below par. However, the sawtooth was very well received.
K. T.Absolutely delicious! The staff we very attentive and explained the menu. Lovely atmosphere, even though it is in a hotel. We loved it.
K. S.Had an amazing time and laughed with the personal chef. Was treated properly and the atmosphere was incredible. Highly recommended and worth the money.
M. N.We had quick lunch on Weekdays, the food was fantastic. The fist table offers very reasonable price for the value. I'm sure we will come back again:)
We ordered Main :
Braised Darling Downs Wagyu Beef Cheek
South Island John Dory
Riverina District Lamb Belly
Side:
Choi’s Farm Mushrooms
Kipfler Potatoes
J. H.Food was nice but very small portion. I wouldn't rate this as a fine dining restaurant, more like a bistro in my opinion. Overall the experience was positive
L. S.I wrote this review on Dimmi but unsure why it did not load but here it is:
Do you want to impress your romantic interest or loved one? Because SIlvester's has got you covered! From the get go, I knew this was going to be an amazing experience that would impress my fiance. AND IT DID! Just to give you an idea, here are some of the key points I want you to take away from this review:
- The waiting staff are top notch! Knows exactly what you are thinking. The way they explained the menu and the service provided was impeccable. The proactive attitude was key and that was what made the experience so memorable.
- The food... oh my. They're masterpieces put together by a culinary artist. The Tajima waygu was cooked perfectly. Toothfish was to die for - the sauce was so well balanced. The dark horse was actually the Grima Brothers Farm vegetables because the portion was just so generous and you could definitely tell it was top notch produce. They were root vegetables cooked in a way that accentuates the natural flavours - nutty and fresh! For dessert, I could not decide between the Uji matcha lava tart and the pavlova 2.0. When they say 2.0, they mean 2.0 - a beautiful deconstructed pavlova that highlights the flavour of the raspberries. So you wonder, why I'm writing such a long review. It was because I was so inspired by the whole experience. It was my first time going to a restaurant with an open plan so you could see exactly who and what is being cooked from your table. But to be honest, I would come back here regardless of whether or not it was restaurant month. I've already booked my next experience. So go and get yours too! Many compliments to the chef. See you guys again soon!
K. H.Went to Silvester's to celebrate my mum's birthday, the service and quality of food is just top notch! Will definitely come back again!
P. S.Amazing food. Been here 3 times and every single dish is perfect. Do not hesitate to go
M. W.Hotel restaurant located inside Marriott hotel on Pitt street near the circular quay. Elegant and cozy. Has that rich inclusive feel. Open early with a breakfast buffet. What’s not to love.
F.Service had been fantastic until we had asked for the bill three times before we had to go straight to the reception for it. Food was alright, I liked the lava matcha tart and shoestring fries.
C. C.Food was great! Especially the dessert! Just wished the service was a bit better
B.A night to remember - The Tasmanian Feast 2019 ● Well-priced, interesting menu and good wine paired with every dish
S. M.Awesome selection of buffet style breakfast and excellent service and lovely choices to pick from.
T. L.It’s quite busy today, it took pretty long for the waiter to come to our table, but the food is definitely very delicious.
A. S.Food is excellent. Instead of a huge menu there is instead a smaller menu with well thought through dishes. Highly recommend the pork cheek and the toothfish.
I. P.My husband and I came for the truffle dinner and had a wonderful time. The ambiance was great, I loved the music and the food was delicious. Not only were the portions generous, but they were very balanced with notes of truffle rather than something very heavy-handed. The wine choices were also great, and I liked that the server offered a taste before pouring the whole glass. We will definitely come back again!
A. A.Food is very tasty, staffs are great & Pro 👍 service is freaking awesome 😎
A. J.Beautiful food, great service and lovely ambience. Would return.
W. H. L.7 courses menu are definitely worth to try!
C. F.I have now dined at Silvester's several times. The food and service is always excellent. This time I celebrated the birthday of a friend. Everything was charming. The atmosphere is conducive for a long, lingering dinner. We shared everything we ordered thus increasing our ability to taste a number of entrees, sides and mains. I particularly would suggest try any of the fish/seafood options as well as a side of the mushrooms or the tomato salad. It's not often a hotel restaurant is this good.
G. E.We visited Silvester's Restaurant for the Plantagenet wine dinner. The food was glorious, the service exceptional and the wines were very well paired!
C.It was an excellent night and the staff humored my children over their shows of desserts.
The food was well presented. The beets salad was a delight by the addition of sorbet. The pate on brioche was divine. The beef ribs were delicious. What i didn't enjoy were the flavors of the pork cheeks (the rest of the main was yummy) and the rice crisps that accompanied the tuna tartar. Surprisingly those crisps tasted stale?!
I especially appreciated the service. Some of their wait staff were so entertaining!
J. A.Absolutely wonderful food! Highly recommend it. We went on Saturday night for a late night reservation at 9pm. Booked through dimmi. The staff was amazing and attentive and the food was great too! Really awesome balance of flavours in both dishes. We had the White Tooth, Flap Steak and the Tuna Poke. Highly recommend all three dishes. To top it off - even though we didn't order dessert - they gave use free mini desserts to have with our coffees. Will 100% be coming back. Thank you so much guys!
R. C.Had the beetroot salad, lamb belly and champagne peach sorbet. Every dish was excellent but the beetroot salad with its tangy beet sorbet was the stand out.
I also had breakfast here and it's possibly the best buffet breakfast in the city. The only let down was the coffee quality.
Service was friendly and attentive. Highly recommended.
A. G.Enjoyed a single course lunch for two, with sides. Excellent advice regarding wine pairing, including a taste of the two main contenders. The wagyu beef was superlative, with a marrow sauce of great richness. A lovely range of texture and flavours, and the mushroom side was an excellent combination. The lamb was also a first rate dish. Lovely ambience, luxurious seating. Here we found great integrity of fine cuisine, evident as always the sauces. Great wines to match. Superlative. Attentive but not intrusive service.
t. m.The food is up there, with a wide variety of choices. Food is not a problem at all. What is different is how this place is operated. This restaurant does not feel like a Marriott hotel, it is more like a restaurant. Service is formal, but atmosphere is casual. A lot of the wait staffs are clearly new to the industry (young graduates), but they do try their best, and generally service is good and don't really make mistakes. As the restaurant is in the middle of the hotel building, there is no ceiling as such (except the actual roof of the building), sound is not being bounced back from walls and ceiling, this is a perfect place for conversations.
K. K.Best food and service. Toothfish was beautiful.
N. N.We had a lovely experience at Silvester's. The staff were very attentive, and certainly accommodating. The lamb rack and spatchcock were done very nicely, however the duck fat potatoes could be more crisp and have more flavour. The atmosphere was nice, but hotel guests are passing by. Would recommend to others, especially for the lovely staff and good food :)
J. W.Fantastic service! We went as a group of 6 for dinner to celebrate two people's birthdays. We were seated as per requested and the waitresses were very lovely and accommodating towards any changes that we needed to make. They also gave us a little birthday surprise towards the end. Overall it was a great experience :)
T. A.Had a pretty average experience here. Entrees were very good, as was the wine list, but the mains and desert were somewhat underwhelming. The John Dory was nice, but it was overcooked. Restaurants like this should not be overcooking fish... The beef cheek was nice too, but the execution of the dish was a little odd. The duck fat roast potatoes were not in the least crispy. The deserts seemed a little off too, and the smoked ice cream with the chocolate was completely overbearing. Wait staff also very mixed - one waiter was wonderful, but another was arrogant and gave us the wrong information about multiple dishes.
The food is certainly not bad - it's good, but it's terribly overpriced for what it is and it was disappointing that most dishes we had were just a little bit off.
V. L.Very nice environment, we both liked the crab meat entree very much, the food in general is better than most of diner we have been recently, very nice experience. Except for the fact that waiter put my coat on the back of chair but just left the end of coat on the floor and I have seen he did the same for other guests too, I also saw later a waitress fixed the coat for 1 lady, which I guess can be improved.
J. S.Pros amazing food and service, thank you Barbara for your kind service. each course was delicious, i had requested a set menu put together to cater for our group and the chef was able to do this for us.
Cons needs a bit more atmosphere. when i arrived i was chased down by the waiter who explained that i was to pay for 13 guests when i had confirmed on email more then 48hrs beforehand that it was changed to 10 guests only. he insistent i paid for 13 guests. this issue was resolved by the chef... dampened the mood at the start but hey its the festive season!!!
W. W.We enjoyed a wonderful meal in a relaxed environment. The service is impeccable and the food is delicious! We enjoyed our meal unrushed and had knowledgeable and delightful staff.
It wasn’t any special anniversary but it’s a rare date night out for parents with a toddler. We appreciated having a wonderful meal together and being able to chat with each other without having to manage our lovely child.
Thank you Silvester’s for a delightful evening.
A. H.My friends and I had a lovely fine-dining experience here. The matcha lava tart was an extraordinary dessert and the staff were all very friendly in making sure our experience was as comfortable as possible. There is no need to dress up too much either.
m. g.Delicious food starters, yellow fin pizza (so tasty) &crab meat in an avocado wrap were great & mains (tooth fish &lamb belly) full of flavour.Great dessert. Service was a little overbearing. The waiter basically hovered around the table.... Go for the food.
Top Notch.
G. A.Went there on Saturday night for dinner and the food was sensational. The let down was the service side of things. Understanding our waitress was very difficult to the point we would have to ask her to repeat herself 3-4 times. Also at the end of our meal I was trying to get someone's attention to get the bill issued and 2 wait staff where too busy talking to each other at the front counter and couldn't get bothered to look around to see if anyone wanted any sort of service. I had to walk up and pay at the front counter as our car was waiting for us. Get the floor staff right and this place would be a gem.
N. C.nice food and friendly service! Had a great time for company dinner
S. L.Had an absolutely fantastic dinner at Silverster's! The food and service was amazing. I had let the staff know that me and my partner were celebrating our 5 year anniversary and they surprised us with sparklers, a special message and complimentary desserts. Would absolutely dine there again!
D.I visited here recently for the first time, at lunch. Overall my experience was quite good, although I must admit to being somewhat disappointed with the size of the food portions, compared to the rather large plates they were served on, and the prices that were charged for each meal! The food itself tasted quite nice, but there definitely could have been more of it! The service was somewhat hit and miss - sometimes the staff were quite attentive and other times not as much. The restaurant is pretty much inaccessible to persons with mobility issues, other than a rather small and clunky platform lift, which doesn't allow for much independence.
A. A.Food and service was pretty average for a 5 star hotel. There was only 1 waiter we encountered that provided the 5 star service. The whole sharing banquet experience took about 4 hours to complete with a long break in between each course. Mains were served luke warm and was not cut up, so we had to split the mains ourselves. The sides were piping hot though.
E.A truly lovely fine dining experience. The menu is modern and refined. I am particularly impressed with the blood orange sorbet dessert. Staff are very friendly, attentive and professional. I'd love to go back some time for some special occasions.
A. P.The difference between good and great restaurant is sometimes as simple as how you feel when eating there.
Our dining at Silvester's was memorable!
Great tasting dishes were met with amazing service! The first was that they gave our kids little plushies, then the waitstaff's knowledge of halal vs non-halal gelatine and lastly since it was getting late at night, they delivered the dessert in record time.
E.The staff are polite.
The openness of the restaurant lends itself to a lack of privacy.
The menu is the biggest problem.
Mainly pork etc, totally lost the plot trying to be to arty with food lacking real taste and flavour.
Need more Vegetarian on the menu as well as pasta and rissotto.
K. T.Silvester’s was far beyond our expectations. Food was amazing, generous servings and very well priced. The staff were friendly, well informed regarding the food and wine but in no way felt overbearing whilst we enjoyed our night. We sat at 630 and didn’t leave till after 1130, and we didnt feel that we had to rush off. The staff even provided a complimentary dessert dish to help us stay longer! We did not feel uncomfortable with guests in the hotel passing by - we didn’t even notice - and the restaurant was quiet enough to talk without yelling (even though it was a Vivid weekend)! We were there to farewell a friend and we couldn’t have chosen a better place to do it. We will be back and highly recommend you try it!
V. A. F.We had the beautiful buffet at Silvester's on Christmas Day. The food and choice was delicious and service was excellent. It would have been lovely to have some fresh fruit and whipped cream on offer for dessert also but overall a very enjoyable meal and festive atmosphere.
M. S.The food was out of this world, especially the toothfish and the spanner crab. Definitely something worth coming back for.
Service was excellent, all the waitstaff (Shubam, Jen, and Jennifer) were friendly and knowledgeable. It made the dining experience even more enjoyable.
D. W.Fine dining at an affordable price. One of my favourite restaurant in Sydney. Everytime I go back I order a different dish and its always amazing. If you ever go try the Bay Bug to start off, Wagyu as your main and the orange sorbet with olive oil cake. Trust me, wont regret it!
C. S.To be honest, I think the food isn’t that great. We ordered Pork Cheek and Wagyu Striploin as it is very popular from the reviews I’ve read before going there. They were all dry and not flavourful. To be honest, my home cooked mash potato is way better than the mash that’s in the Pork Cheek and I am not a professional chef. I was quite disappointed because we chose this restaurant for our post valentine date but after finishing our food, we were too quick to leave the place. There’s nothing about it that will make you really leave the place a lil bit longer. Place was so boring and there was no aircon. The service is poor. Even if there were only few people eating, our waitress didn’t even bother to check on us if we still want some more water or is there’s still anything we need. For the record our water glass was empty already ever before we finished our food. If there will be no improvement to the ambience, service and food, I don’t think this restaurant will lasts. This is my very honest review.
M. G.Love coming to Silvester’s Restaurant as it never disappoints! Chef Raphael is an innovative and creative chef and his dishes are a feast for the eyes as well as the palate . The service is excellent and
albeit this restaurant is within the confines of a major
City Hotel, the staff are always polite and obliging.
s. M.The food was reasonable, but the service was only average, especially considering the prices and the 15% holiday surcharge. Our entrées came before our drinks, the room had a very ‘hotel’ feel and disappointingly my $42 plus surcharge steak was a little tough and over cooked.
A. L.Had Xmas lunch at Silvesters. Pricing was reasonable for Xmas day, would have preferred it to include more champagne but we got one glass on arrival. The venue was beautifully decorated in xmas theme. Food was amazing and included a lobster and sashimi station. Staff were attentive and helpful. We got bon bons and there was amazing cheeses and desserts. Overall it was a magical day, I thoroughly enjoyed it and would highly recommend.
j. l.A hidden Gem for good value fine dining. We ordered the spanner crab and the kingfish as entree n they were just top notch.The best n freshest kingfish n crab ever tasted. Our mains were beef ribs slow cooked , Tajima wagyu beef and the toothfish were all done perfectly delicious. The pork cheeks with
hervey bay scallops was delicious too but just a bit too salty for my liking but still beautiful with the right pairing of lentils n mash n gravy. The blood orange sorbet tofu panacota n the nitrogen coriander crystal was sublimly refreshing n the best smooth n clean refreshing sorbet ever tasted. A must try n the matcha dessert too. Only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 was occasionally had to ask staff to top up our water but other than that they were very attentive Overall very happy n will be back! Highly recommend!
a. t.i had an amazing experience here with the most friendliest staff. This was a surprise birthday dinner for my partner so i tried to call them three times but no one answered the phone so i emailed them asking them to set a birthday message on the dessert as surprised and they replied within the day. The food was amazingggg but the portion was a little small but that's okay cos it made up for the taste . The cocktails were also sooo goood !
i will definitely be back
H. F.A highly enjoyable dinner, with some of the best dishes I've had in Sydney. All the staff were friendly and attentive with some great food and wine recommendations. Incredible food, service and atmosphere, can't wait to go again!
K. C.We went on a Saturday night to celebrate my wife's birthday as well as our anniversary. The service was top notch and Richard really took care of us. The food was amazing and we felt really special that night. We cannot wait to be back again
L. G.We dined on 5 Jun 18. An exceptional evening, the food was excellent and the staff were friendly, respectful and very knowledgeable. Our choice of wine was delicious. All in all a great evening and a great place for a special dinner.
T. M.The Meals were fantastic! But the service was appalling! Except for the Lady who took our order; she was the only professional staff member the others didn't look you in the eye, put on false smiles, very poor service; lost in what they should be doing! When we arrived instead of seating us or looking to where we should be seated she asked us to take a seat in the lounge area, why? We get seated at our table a minute later, so again, why? This is such poor service; staff in a hatted restaurant unable to preform more than one task... Then, lady holding up all staff talking to them about roasters. At one stage there were four staff members at the register; after approx. 15minutes we hadn't been asked what we would like to drink! Cutlery not set correctly, so waiter staff leaving meals in front of the wrong people. For a hatted restaurant, all should be great! not just the food...
Ambience, very poor, we get we were in a Hotel but really, why such small tables and dirty stained chairs!? and why look like a Hotel/Hatted Restaurant ready for buffet service?
Oh, and we had a drink at the bar before our meal; metal straws and huge chunks of ice; not pleasant to drink our cocktails.. There is no way we would drink out of a metal straw, how are they washed? Are there germs within the straw? left over saliva from other people using the same straw? and metal to the mouth while drinking, not very pleasant at all... We asked for paper straws, there weren't any, no other option!
But with all that said, as mentioned, the food was fantastic!
A. H.I highly recommend the Icon, their buffet is spectacular. I would be very embarrassed if they counted the amount of times I returned to the buffet bar to refill my plate. The have a great selection of seafood, meat dishes as well as a substantial salad bar. The servers are friendly and the price is agreeable.
C. H.Let's just say that the food is incredibly flavorful, unique and super tasty. I was thrilled at every step in every dish. I especially loved the dessert. It was truly ecstatic!!
G. M.This was our first time to Silvester’s for lunch starting with Farm Beets to share followed by a Beef Short Rib and Toothfish for mains accompanied with Mushrooms as a side. The beef and fish were most flavoursome. Dessert was nothing special. Service was friendly although mistakes were made in orders placed for wine unfortunately. Prices were high, considering a Dimmi -50% discount applied on food items. Would we return, probably not?
J. W.Lovely restaurant. Excellent service and great choice of a wide variety of foods. Extensive wine list. Comfortable seating. Very friendly attentive staff. Very glad we chose to have dinner in Silvesters.
D. (.Had a very pleasant dining experience here on a Tuesday night. Some dishes like the Morton bay bug and scallops dishes were very nice. The wagyu flank lacked sauce and flavour and was a bit dry for medium rare, served at room temperature which was odd and the risotto didnt stand out either. What brought up the ratings and experience was the little touches, the complimentary amouse bouche and petit fours, superb service and the offering of a decwnt kids menu. The place also looks very modern compared to the marriot a few years ago.
B. S.Amazing food, amazing service and atmosphere. Would recommend this to everyone the food my goodness was to die for and I don't say that lightly. We got 50% through Dimmi which was awesome, prices were on the higher side but I wouldn't have a problem paying full price with the quality of food that was served.
e. a.Everything was made to perfection, in particular their spanner crab so this is a must try. My personal favourites for the mains would be the toothfish & beef cheeks, and the mille feuille for dessert. The girls who provided the service were attentive and thorough in describing the menu.
I. L.Inside the foyer of Marriott hotel at Circular quay. Staff was very attentive with great service but the food was very ordinary to say the least. Reasonable size portion size but the price is definitely overpriced. Good atmosphere to entertain and nearby to local attraction.
J. F.Jen served us and she was amazing from recommending the food to checking in and making our dinner a memorable one. Great place to chill out, have a glass of wine, dinner and amazing desserts.
A. R.Very nice fine dinning. Food was fantastic. Service was excellent. Unbelievable good value using First table booking. We will be back for sure.
S. B.Service was fantastic, attentive and able to answer most questions 're menu. Missed some info 're availability of on tap beers. Food was sensational and there was no rush to get us out the door when the meal ended.
O. B.Food & Service was amazing... Every dish was fantastic! Looking forward to going back. We enjoyed the Oysters, Tuna/Watermelon tartar, Squid Carbonara (Amazing), Toothfish & Pork Cheek - couldnt fit in any desert!
J. J.THE BEST BUFFET BREAKFAST ON THE PLANET!!! Seriously a unique breakfast bar that has everything you can thing of for breakfast from regular pancakes, waffles to Currys and Kimchi. Definitely worth a stay at the Marriott Hotel and include the breakfast.
One little down side is it fills up really quickly!
C. X.Very nice fine dinning. Food was fantastic. Service was excellent. Unbelievable good value using First table booking. We will be back for sure.
Y. L.Great food and service! Love it
P. L.Food and service were great. We ordered wagyu beef steak and tooth fish. They were really tasty. I will definitely recommend the restaurant to friends and family.
M. T.Staff were happy to accommodate our last-minute change in numbers, and offered a la carte dining despite the large group. We stuck with the shared dining option, and were impressed by both quality and quantity.
E. D.Went there for my husband birthday, service is excellent, all staff were very helpful and the main things is the food it’s to die for!!!! Ordered Moreton bugs tails and tartare tuna and King fish for entree, Wagyu beef and pork cheeks for main and Christmas summer and lava cake for dessert, everything are so Delish!!!! We will come back again for sure, thanks for making our night memorable
A. M.Dishes were hit and miss. Tuna tartar was excellent quality produce, but lacking in flavour. Beef tataki was flavourful, but slightly dry. The beef short rib was a generous portion, but also dry. The Wagyu striploin was the standout, being perfectly cooked and of the highest quality. Unfortunately, due to the above inconsistencies I can only rate 4 stars.
E. Y.We went with my partner and ordered leather jacket Fisk cheeks and ghocchi and some side dishes and some wine, waiting time was ok
The food was brought to our table and I noticed my dish was not what I ordered and told the waiter and she apologised for the inconvenient; she not only brought the right dish, but also advised the manager what has happened and the manager gave us desert with no extra charge and remove the fish from the bill.. this is what customer service is all about.. the incovinent was that we couldn't eat our food together and the manager realised and compensated for the mistake made.. love when managers are considered and do the right thing ..
Love the place and highly recommended
Nice staff.. friendly and Kind
H. C.We dined at Silvesters for dinner and the service, food and drinks were all superb.
The portions were generous and every single dish were delicious. Would definitely return!
C. L.Great service and the most delicious dinner I have had in awhile. The tuna tartare, the mooloolaba prawns, the harvey bay scallops...absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked. We cannot wait to go back again.
J. E. D.Exceptional, as usual. Chef is always taking the experience to the next level. Food wise, they would deserve a hat, easy! Service is super friendly and staff is well trained. I'll come back for sure
O. D.The restaurant is located in Sydney Harbor Marriott. We visited him several times for breakfast during our stay in town.
Breakfast was excellent and very varied, with a huge selection of dishes. The service was also excellent.
T. R.Very classy, Staying in the Marriott hotel the location is very convenient, the portions arent very big, but the quality is excellent, staff were friendly and attentive. The Amuse-bouche entree and desert were a perfect addition.
Ø. T.Great breakfast buffet. Ask the chef for you choice of omelet or eggs any style. Lots of sweet stuff as well. A bit pricey, but quick and delicious.
K. S.I had a fantastic dinner last night. Thank you. Exceptional food and service. The stand out dishes for me were the lamb belly and for dessert the blood orange sorbet. I will be back :)
I. I.Food was good, but a restaurant with a hat, I hold them to a higher standard. Entree of tuna tartae was excellent, main of short rib and heirloom carrots great. But the service was good, but but not worthy of a hat.
S. Y.We went there in a group of 6 people, we ordered different dishes to share, all were great. Staff was friendly. Will definitely come back!
L. J.Silvester's is a wonderful restaurant and my experience has been perfect every time i've dined there (about 4 times). The produce is amazing, and the dishes are so delicious!
L. Q.Based at inside of Marriott Hotel with classic interior atmosphere , simple menu but the food was well presented and cooked. Uji Macha tart is the must try dessert.
S. N.Really impressed and loved the nice ambience, attentive and friendly service and the food was amazing - beautiful presentation and such a treat for the senses! Definitely coming back and taking someone special!
L. F.Location of restaurant is part od tje Marriott. Best suited for travelers or special dinner events themed by an occasion. I attended a wine paired degustation wherw the venue is setup with multiple people at a table - this makes the event less intimate.
V. T.Really enjoyed our anniversary dinner here. Fantastic lamb rack, wagyu special and modern pavlova for dessert. We'll be back!
D. N.Been a few times. Excellent service everytime and entrees are delicious. Abit pricey but the atmosphere and food is good. Maybe the mains don't match up to how good the entrees were but still good food.
T. T.Food was amazing.. it was included in our hotel package.. we got a 2 course meal and a bottle of white wine and all was so delish..
M. C.My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience at Silvesters. The food was divine and the service was exceptional. We highly recommend Silvesters and look forward to returning.
b.Went there for my farewell, everything was excellent, from food to wine. Good recommendation was made. Thumbs up to Jeremy the manager there and our Attendants ( im so sorry that we didnt quite get his name)!!
M. W.This is the second time my wife and I have dined at Silvester's. Again we had an incredible experience. 10 out of 10 for the food, service and atmosphere, thank you.
A. L.The food was delicious and the service was friendly, attentive but not intrusive. We all agreed that we would have dinner there again.

y. w.We had dinner here, the venison and wagyu. The food was good, but the main thing for me was the service, we were fortunate that night and we’re attended by Excellent waiter/waiters...
B. P.My husband and myself have been there twice.In February 2018 celebrating our 50th Wedding Anniversary and on 2nd November 2018 for my husbands 72nd birthday.Firstly the staff-from the moment you are led to your table they make you feel so special and the wait staff we had Richard again and Barbara 1st time.How great are they.From ordering the drinks they explain everything about then.Then ordering the food they explain everything there also asking if there are any allergies.The food is the best and the presentation is A1.They even brought out a desert for my husband's birthday as they did with our Anniversary.Such a wonderful touch.Highly Recommended
S. H.Service was attentive, yet not intrusive. The balsamic rocket salad was delightful, and wagyu beef astonishingly tender. I thoroughly recommend.

I personally duck beef cheeks better than juck !!! I can not be ashamed, it melts in my mouth.
I recommend that the dish containing fish comes in.
During the dessert, the tartare and the blood orange sherbet were the most memorable and delicious.
There was a person who did not like tea during the party, but it was a dessert that was delicious and served the best.
The sherbet was tasteless. When you eat
You have to explain that you should eat it as a whole rather than just Sherbet. It was a little bit tastier, but I did not get any taste, and when I poured liquid nitrogen, everyone was enjoying it.
I like truffles and I ate truffle dessert with a new menu.
The dessert that went into the raspberry was fresh, and the meringue cookies were so delicious that it was delicious to eat with a meringue cookie that looked like a kings.

저는 개인적으로 duck 보다 Beef cheek 강추입니다!!! 부끄럽다 못해 입에서 살살 녹아요.
생선 들어간 디쉬는 메로 들어간 걸 추천하구요.
디저트중에 말차타르트랑 블러드오렌지셔벗이 제일 기억에 남고 맛있었어요.
일행 중 말차 안좋아하는 분도 계셨는데 맛있게 드셨고 다들 제일 맛있다고 한 디저트에요.
셔벗은 자꾸 손이 가는맛이었어요. 먹을 때 위만
에 셔벗만이 아니라 전체적으로 떠서 먹어야한다고 설명해주셨는데 그렇게 먹어야 멋을 다양하게 다 느낄 수 있어요. 고수향은 약간 나는데 맛에선 하나도 안나고 액체 질소 부을 때 다들 와~하면서 보는맛도 있었어요.
트러플을 좋아해서 신메뉴인 트러플디저트 기대하면서 먹었는데 특유의 향으로 일행들 호불호가 정말 많이 갈렸어요...
라즈베리 들어간 디저트는 상큼하고 머랭쿠키가 달아서 키세스 같이 생긴 머랭쿠키 쪼개서 같이 먹으면 더 맛있었어요.
R. S.(Translated) Dined twice during our stay in Sydney. Very good food and very pleasant service. The dishes are prepared with care and sometimes surprising in composition, but without exception particularly tasty!
The service, consisting of young, cordial and very enthusiastic professionals, increases the party atmosphere. Special compliment for Catalina and Andrea !!!

Tijdens ons verblijf in Sydney twee keer gedineerd. Erg lekker gegeten en erg prettige bediening. De gerechten zijn met zorg bereid en soms verrassend qua compositie, maar zonder uitzondering bijzonder smakelijk!
De bediening bestaande uit jonge, hartelijke en zeer enthousiaste professionals verhogen de feestvreugde. Speciaal compliment voor Catalina en Andrea!!!
