Airy, comfortable - like a Conservatorium of sorts, The Fernery is very good. I shared the 1Kg Tuscan style T-bone steak which comes sliced and comes with a host of sides. Was a little disappointed with this steak however this time as they've taken their Truffle Fries off the menu and changed the sauces available. Also the steak was NOT as tender as the one I had 2 months ago. Chef could you check your sourcing, bring back the original salsa Verde (thanks Jamie) and PLEASE bring back the Truffle fries with Parmesan....

Great Cleanliness From the moment we walked in we had the most amazing blonde and brunette waitresses! They were so kind, friendly and so attentive! They kept re-filling our water, made sure we were happy, laughed at my dad and uncles dad jokes :p haha was nice. Also really fast service! The food was amazing! No one left anything on their plates! Was soooo good. Steak sandwich, angus beef burger, scallop salad, salmon and coconut salad were ace! So so so delicious!!! Definitely have some great chefs there! Great cooking and not too long to wait!!! Coffee = Tasty!!!! Usually I only like certain coffee shops but this one is tops!!!! The coffee was perfectly roasted, perfectly frothed milk, and the most delicious chocolate, coffee and milk ratio!!! The place is beautiful inside, old fashioned glasses, beautiful wood furnishings, cute tables and chairs. Plus the beautiful show kitchen really shows the skills of the amazing chefs!!! Love it! Lastly, the place is so so so so so clean! I am impressed! 11/10 for everything!!! Highly recommend this to anyone!!!

Some lunch mains are in the range of $30 - $35 which is a bit pricey given that you could have lunch at a better location e.g. next to the harbour, for the same price, or pay a little extra for a fine dining restaurant. Desserts looked tempting and there was a good selection but unfortunately did not to get to try them.

The business has recently changed hands and the new owners have certainly kept up the high standard set by the previous one. At the moment they are not licensed but should change soon so some bubbly will be on offer. The high tea itself was beautifully presented on a three tiered platter, savoury bites on the bottom, sandwiches in the middle and petty fours on top. Also, a small basket containing scones with jam and cream came with it. You have a choice of about a dozen different teas or coffee. I can't think of a better way to while away a balmy afternoon.

Our lovely waitress not only gave us excellent food recommendations, but she even showed me a map of where we needed to walk to find some fresh flowers for the crematorium. We are just tourists and have no clue where to go, and it was so nice to have a helpful person. NOW...THE FOOD. Oven baked scallops with clam meat, garlic butter and flatbread. Holy cow! Delish, and just the right amount. Loved the presentation in the pretty white shells. Next we tried the fried squid with squid ink aioli. Again another great little meal. Very crisp and tasty. Hot. Cheese. Dip. YESSSSS!!!! This is the one thing on the menu that we saw on their website that made us want to come here in the first place. A hot sizzling iron plate of gooey white cheese, served with warm toasty flatbread. YUM. Elegant atmosphere and a great view of Darling Harbour. Very impressive place.

The venue is pretty modern, with sleek ceiling height glass panes letting ample natural light and views into the space. Basically what you'd expect for a wedding venue in such a prized location. We were served with antipasto, cheese platter and a glass of champagne upon arrival. The quality of food here is phenomenal. Have a look at the photos and you can be the judge. We really enjoyed the squid ink prawn tortellini entree. Looks can be deceiving, that little thing is like a mini dynamite of flavours exploding in your mouth. The prawn crust salmon was one of our fav too. The sauce was very well balanced and complimented the salmon well. The dessert choices were the hardest - how do you pick when everything sound so enticing?! So we tried five desserts, because it's better to be safe than sorry. All in all, we were really impressed with the level of service and friendliness of the staff who works here. It's not often you see hospitality staff who genuinely enjoy the interaction with customers and love their job. The only little thing that I'd like the venue to improve is its wine list. The house wine selection was pretty atrocious and didn't go well with the food. A minor blemish to the experience but a great night nevertheless.

The tartare tasted nice, fresh, beefy, the taste of aioli came through. The crispy chips were also really nice to complement the tartare. The steak itself was so aromatic. I could smell the truffle aroma when I was brought out. The menu said the steak was "Encased in beef dripping butter infused with Bone Marrow & Confit Garlic" - must I say more? Super moist, juicy, aromatic, tender and delicious steak. The crust was really aromatic with all that encasing. But still found a small piece of inner fat a little undercooked, tough and greasy.

The concept is simple - you choose a meat (hunter) and a side (gatherer). There's around 5 meats to choose from and they're unreal, we're talking deconstructed shepherd's pie, slow roasted Berkshire pork, that kind of thing, each of which is almost a meal in itself and comes with garnishes and sides like sauerkraut and slaw and such. The sides are a bonus, I had crumbed haloumi salad wth mint and this thing was legit, I would have smashed this alone. Extra sides are just $4, can highly recommend going for broke here. There's a ton of good options. Win, win, win.

We were waited on immediately. Servers fly around like dancers, it's actually pretty impressive. Our food arrived in no time. My wife had fish and chips and I had lamb and rosemary pie.

We didn't have any dessert but as you walk in the door they have some wonderful looking pies and cakes. Do yourself a favor and save room for one of those. I messed up and didn't try something. This is actually a really cool restaurant that I would like to try again. I wouldn't let one dish that didn't hit my taste buds keep me away.

I understand it can get a little busy at times too, so there might be a wait. PRO TIP: make an online reservation and get seated right away! I had a couple of goals when visiting Australia... and one of them was to try kangaroo. The Rocks Cafe delivers with their Kangaroo Filet! And you can get it gluten-free! The sauce is a bit rich for me, but you can brush some of the sauce off with your fork. If kangaroo is not your thing, then there are plenty of other options on the menu... and the crowd around us all looked pleased with their orders. After you are done with your meal, you just go to the front/reception area and pay your bill. Easy peasy! Overall rating: ****FOUR STARS**** Gluten-free rating: ****FOUR STARS****

Recycled timber walls, hanging plants, an outdoor patio and a new logo are the first signs of the facelift, while even more notable are the new selection of cakes, slices and savoury treats (most of which are baked in-house), organic De Stefano coffee, and a shiny new La Marcozzo machine. Fair trade and organic produce are now front and centre and I sampled them first hand with baked eggs with soldiers (so delicious that I wasn't able to restrain myself long enough to snap a photo) and a near perfectly pulled long black. If you've brushed off Cafe Mosman in the past, it's well past time you head back to check out the new renos, the beautiful coffee, and the tasty, seasonal breakfast and lunch menus.
