BPO's main positive is that it definitely offers a pleasant setting for an intimate dinner. However I was not exactly blown away by the food. My partner and I both ordered the steak ($30) and so we weren't thrilled when our plates came out with just a steak on it and nothing else. Still if it had been an amazing steak we wouldn't have felt cheated...but it wasn't needless to say. Being students we decided to not order dessert and instead bought a big bucket of connoisseur cookies and ice cream on the way home - the dessert that never disappoints!

One of my worst dining experiences I will never go again. The restaurant was not busy. Tables are lighted by candles and it's difficult to read the menu and see what you are eating. It's cold and you have to dine in your jacket. Firstly we were given incorrect discriptions of the meals and based on this we ordered. We were served nothing like what we ordered. The food is very overpriced for what is presented, two entrees and two mains and $150 later we were very disappointed.

 

Response from Management:

We are sorry you had a bad dining experience at our restaurant, but to our defence all the meals were in the menu including the specials with a full descrition, and yes your bill was $149.00 but $27.00 of that was for wine. If you had told us that the meals were not the ones ordered we certainly would have put this right for you.

Food was ok, but the waitress could hardly speak English which is pretty frustrating.

Me and my family absolutely loved our experience at BPO, we have been to the three establishments for a long time now and so much as nothing has ever gone wrong. The food was lovely, ambience, service and value was great. Our dining experience was perfect. I am definitely coming back for more.

Avoid like the plague. Friends recommended we try it. I read the mixed reviews on this site but ventured forth anyhow, though with not inconsiderable trepidation. All my fears were founded. We booked a table for four at 8 pm. When we arrived we were told our table would be ready in five to ten minutes. After ten minutes of no action, we asked "we booked a table, what's the problem"? "Well nobody told me", was the manager's response. After 45 minutes at the bar, we left and went to Tables at Pymble for their typical excellent food and service. I've rated the food etc as a 5 because we never got to try it.

Worst experience ever in a restaurant, however, had been several times before and had enjoyed it. This experience was so far below even a reasonable standard that we were appalled. Will never return to any of their establishments.

My experience was wonderful. The waiting staff were very efficient and polite and the food was to die for. I will be coming back again.

I was a bit daunted when I saw some very mediocre reviews about BPO but decided to go anyway. I did have the entertainment card to reduce the cost a little. We went for lunch and had a really nice experience. Food, service and ambience all great. I can only say try it, we loved it.

We made a booking for 8 pm but on arrival were told that we would have to wait for our table. We were offered drinks at the bar, where we waited for about half an hour before our table was ready. The waitress assured us that our table would be ready shortly, and offered us menus so our meals would be out quicker.

Despite this wait, we had a great meal (entree, mains and coffee) and the specials were definitely worth the extra cost. Chicken with prosciutto and the john dory can be highly recommended. BPO has definitely improved since my last visit, with specials attached to the menu and chocolates being served with the coffee. Will go back.

I got there at 7:30 with a booking, I got served within the first 10 mins I was there and around 5 mins later my wine had come. I waited for 15 mins for our entree of king prawns on a salad bed which was great. The main I had ordered was the seafood mix, this took around 15mins to come out to me which I was very happy and surprised because the amount of people which were in there I thought I have to wait at least 40 mins. The mood was nice and calming.

Although it might be a little bit pricy it was definitely worth the money, the service was outstanding with nice tone of voice from the waitress and also the chef him self coming to see how are meal was. The time our meals came was good and quick which helped me choose to come again and also the atmosphere help making it more delightful. And I can say I will be going again.
