We have now dined here on about 10 occasions and the food is modern, innovative and really great value for money. The staff are very accommodatiing with any requests (my husband is allergic to ginger). We live locally and have made it our Friday night local, give it a go.

A group of 4 of us dined at Flying Fish last night (Thursday night). The reservation was made some time ago as we made a request to sit upstairs. We were told that there were no gtd's but they would do their best.

The booking was confirmed by them the day before and we made the request again.
We arrived (had our car Valet parked). The entire top section of the Restaurant was closed, I guess to make the downstairs area look busy. This should have been explained to us as not only does the space down stairs lack atmosphere it seems to be where they place the tables with children, of which we had a small child next to us.

I am not against children in a fine dining restaurant but it does change the atmosphere and the dining experience. Perhaps, the needs of the guests should be considered before management take decisions to close the top section. We have been to this restaurant on many occasions and always found the food pricey but well worth the effort.

Unfortunately, this time we were really let down. Not only was there limited choice on the menu it really lacked the pizzazz of previous visits. The food was well cooked but nothing too amazing for the $47 (main) excluding sides, price tag.

After paying the bill we asked about our car and was told the Valet person had gone home and we could collect our car 'around the corner". At this stage I queried the $25 valet parking charge, afterall valet means it is parked and returned to you. They graciously voided the charge and I must say the car was just around the corner of the restaurant but the point remains, don't call it valet when it really isn't.

We probably would not have even bought this up if we had a great night out... the downstairs allocation of the table did not start the evening off on a good note. We dine out often and have no problem with paying good money but if you claim you are extraodinary then you need to be able to back it up. I would expect more of a restaurant with this price tag. There are plenty of choices in Sydney and we won't be back to this one in a hurry.
