My husband and I eat at Giuls once a week (really)! The food and service are excellent, particularly from the Managers, Ross & Paul. The steak is the best we've ever had in Sydney and the Vodka Pasta, Fish Crudo, Steak Tartare and Tiramisu are all exquisite.

    Had a business lunch at Zaffi Sydney on Little Hunter Street and was really impressed. It’s a great option for a business lunch in Sydney CBD because the service was quick without feeling rushed. We had the express menu with Lebanese sharing plates including hummus, manoosh and kafta. Great food, stylish venue and very convenient for meetings around Wynyard and Australia Square. Will definitely be back for lunch.
