This restaurant was a disappointment given the reviews found in this website. The quality of the food is marginal. The pork was extremely dry and so was the ribs. The sirloin we ordered was - again - dry (it was meant to be medium rare and ended up being medium). The only saving grace was the service.

I recently organised a surprise birthday dinner here for my partner, and 11 other friends. The service cannot be faulted! We had the upstairs room to ourselves, the waiter was fantastic all night, and the food was fabulous. I forgot candles for the cake, and they were more than happy not just to supply candles, but then to present the portions beautifully as dessert for the table. Thank you guys for a faultless and thoroughly enjoyable evening. I will definitely be returning.

We went to Razors Edge through word of mouth. Expecting great food, we were awfully disappointed with the quality.

Entrees... the vine leaves were highly recommended by the waiter but it was the worst vine leaves we ever had, the leaves were under cooked and very fiberous. The spicy eggplant moneybags were no way as tasting as in the menu.

Main.... we had crispy skin barramundi on a bed of crsipy rice noodles salad. By the time the dish was set down at the table, the crispy rice noodles was soggy and in little pieces, made it looked like they had used the last bits of the rice noodles in the packet.

The only upside to the dinner was that the waiter was great and friendly. But will not recommend this restaurant to any of my friends and definitely won't be going back again.

My husband and I had a brilliant Saturday night out at The Razors Edge. The service was exceptional; it was smooth, genuinely warm and friendly, and most of all professional. The servings were amongst the most generous we've seen for a long time, and on a cold, rainy night, the vibrant flavours and happy atmosphere were just the thing!

Highly recommended are the confit of pork belly with seared scallops, the kangaroo (rare and exquisitely tender) in black and white sesame seeds, the rack of lamb, the wild barramundi in the citrus dressing (very zesty!), the cinnamon and orange-flavoured chocolate mousse, and the coconut and mango pudding. The coffee was great and we appreciated the complimentary port at the end. Although we were the last customers in the restaurant, we were not hurried out.

There are posters of the 1946 film adaptation of W. Somerset Maugham's novel 'The Razor's Edge' in the bathroom - a nice touch! The epigraph of the novel reads: "The sharp edge of a razor is difficult to pass over . . . " - my recommendation is that you don't pass by this restaurant without giving it a try! It's opposite the Enmore Theatre, so you can catch a show afterwards if you get there early enough.

My girlfriend had just arrived back from Holland and she was keen to get back into the great food that Sydney can provide. I have to say that Razors Edge delivered in every way! Really nice Ravioli, nice atmosphere and very courteous waiters. I would not have a problem in recommending this restaurant to anyone.

I have never felt so relaxed in restaurant and to the chefs and waiters/waitresses of Razors Edge- Thank you. Keep up the hard work.

We were welcomed with a genuine smile as soon as we arrived and the welcome continued for our whole visit. Rarely have I felt as at home in a restaurant as I did here - as other people have said, it's like visiting friends in their front room.

A small plate of dhal with some strips of flat bread for drinking arrived as soon as we were shown to our table, as well as water (and directions to the local bottle shop since they are BYO only). We had the chilli crab ravioli, fantastic flavours though a little light on crabby-ness, then the smokey eggplant cannelloni, and the filet mignon. Both were wonderful.

Despite being completely full we couldn't help having dessert - especially as there's a 3 course special Tuesday to Thursday (including coffee or tea). We even had gratis dessert wine. Fantastic value for money, great food, great atmosphere and we will definitely be back.

I've ate at plenty of good restuarants and never felt the need to review one but having come across the Razors Edge and ate there several times now I thought I'd throw my 2 cents worth in after reading a couple of the reviews below.

The food is top class, always very tasty & well presented. The service is always friendly, attentive & you feel like family. I have ate there on a busy night too without issue.

Combine this with the 3 course deal & the Razors Edge represents excellent value for money. I'd thoroughly recommend them & will be going there for Valentine's Day.

I always love the food here. You get proper servings and nicely cooked stuff but most of all I love the two blokes that run it.

It's testament to the regard they're held in that people on this site mention their names so often. So Wayne and Ray: I salute your cooking, your smiles and your fair prices.

Unfortunately, there will always be some people who see waiter/tresses as slaves and chefs as idiots. People who are desperately trying to sound intelligent while simultaneously revealing their `superiority' complexs.

We're going back on Wednesday so I'll let you know more detail about the food later. In the mean time, go to Razor's Edge yourself and try it out. I think it's cool.

Razor Edge is a great Restaurant. Food was very tasty, Chilli Crab Raviolli for entree was wonderful, Garlic Prawns were wonderful. The Fillet Mignon "Rare" just melted in our mouths. The dessert was great. The $48 deal for 3 courses with tea/coffee represents good value for the calibre of food and service.

Wayne & Ray the owners make you feel as they are entertaining you in their own home. Thanks again Guys for a great night.
