When looking for Barangaroo restaurants with a view, the NYC-style Smoke should be at the top of your list. Bask in its high-rise surroundings and munch on a cracking selection of bites, including pork belly baos, prawn gyozas and calamari.
Gazing at the gorge setting outside Mimi's, you'd be forgiven for thinking a filter was involved. We can confirm the views are very much for real, and so is the fine dining seafood menu, which two can enjoy for $180. Date night anyone?
Whatever the occasion, The Royal Hotel Paddington knows the drill. This grand venue whips up mouthwatering mains like homemade gnocchi and tuna carpaccio, which are perfect for chowing down before having a sundowner on the rooftop. Bliss.
When it comes to lunch with a view, Sydney is blessed with so many options. But none will beat CIRQ for its delectable selection of tapas, caviar and cold meats. Fans of flowers and waterfront backdrops? You're going to adore this rooftop gem.
Blue skies, iconic pizza, and the crew altogether - what more could you want from Coogee Pavilion? A backdrop of white sand maybe? Enjoy all this, as well as chicken schnitzel and swordfish, at one of the best waterfront restaurants in Sydney.
Bar 83 And Infinity is one of the best restaurants Sydney can shout about. Not only will the sights from the revolving eatery prove to be memorable, but also the food. After eating lamb shoulder tacos and trout ceviche in the clouds, you'll literally think heaven is calling.
Babylon is a little Eastern Mediterranean haven found in the heart of our vibrant city. As one of the best rooftop restaurants Sydney, there are alluring lights, beaut plants, plus authentic Levantine bites that you'll soon be returning to munch on.
Deans On 22 boasts a dining menu that lives up to its lofty heights. Take in the city's awesome skyline as you tuck into dishes like burrata alongside a charcuterie board. After dinner, why not opt for a top-tier cocktail from the world-renowned bar?
