Public DiningRoom

On the shores of Balmoral Beach at Mosman, this restaurant looks out over the water, its dining room designed to draw in the surroundings. The kitchen works to a seasonal menu built around Australian produce and seafood, with dishes kept simple and prepared using classic technique. An extensive wine list, curated by the head sommelier, spans local and international regions and varietals.

Smart casual dress applies, and reservations are recommended. In winter the kitchen rotates hearty dishes fortnightly, from slow braises and bouillabaisse to pot pies and chowders. The venue also hosts weddings and events, and a casual marina berth allows guests to arrive by boat.
