Darling Harbour / Cockle Bay Restaurants: Scrumptious Malaysian & Good luck Buddah!
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Delicious Asian food, mostly Malaysian. Satay, salt & pepper squid, mild curries, laksa, flat noodles, oh and the duck is divine! Everything is so tasty. Great place for groups (works out to be especially good deal for groups), but even not a bad choice for dinner dates. There is usually a queue (a good sign to prove it's popularity), but they usually take your mobile number and you can go have a drink in one of the many nearby bars. Max wait time is 40mins, but usually only about 15-20min wait. Great in Summer, you can sit
    outside. Good ambience, nice lighting, love the huge buddah at the entrance. You are welcome to light some incense by the Buddah and make a little prayer. Amazing website too, check it out!!

    Probably the duck... but then, it was all pretty damn good!

    Darling Harbour / Cockle Bay Restaurants: Fabulous Nonya cuisine and Laksa
  • Tip Rating:
  • The Malaya is one of my favourite restaurants to visit with a big group of friends. It is fabulous value for money and the atmosphere of the restaurant is clean, modern, well managed and fun. If there are 3 or more of you dining, you have the option to try any of the 3 banquets on offer, for between US$18-22 per head. All of these are EXCELLENT value. Bookings are definitely recommended a few days beforehand if you wish to come here on a Fri or Sat night, as this place is popular with groups and is often booked out on these days. On week days it is less busy so I would recommend coming here on a week day if you are in a smaller group as it is less hectic. TIP: Ask for a table outside to snare a lovely view over Darling Harbour over the water.
    Entrees $6.50-$18; mains $14-$23; desserts $5.50-$8 AUD

    Katupan Prawns, Seafood Laksa (the laksa is meant to be the one of the best you can get in Sydney), any of the Malaya banquets offer excellent value for money.

    Darling Harbour / Cockle Bay Restaurants: Chocolate Bliss
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • The store itself it a chocolate lovers heaven. Display cases full of chocolates, ice cream and various chocolate themed desserts. The have a menu with food and drinks as well. You can eat at a table inside the shop or eat at an outdoor table. The ice cream was so good we kept coming back for more...we even had it twice in one day!

    The Excellence 70% ice cream is heavenly. I had it on a cone numerous times. They put a liquid chocolate in the bottom of the cone so you have a gooey surprise at the end of your dessert. Chris had the white chocolate ice cream on a cone and was as enraptured as I was with my dessert.

    A 'futuristic' themed restaurant which the kids just loved. It is an actual experience.
    Orders are taken on a personal computer screen at each booth, (which a waiter confirms with you)and then the kids are free to play on the 'sony playstation' at the booth while waiting for the order to arrive.
    Different!

    Darling Harbour / Cockle Bay Restaurants: Delicious Pizza and a Great View
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Cozy restaurant in Cockle Bay Wharf. You can sit indoors or at a table on the terrace (they have nice heating lamps outside to keep you warm). Nice menu with a varity of specialty pizza, pasta, beef, fish and poultry.

    We happened to be walking in Cockle Bay Wharf and decided to grab a light bite. We had the pizza with eggplant, pepperoni and peppers. It was so delicious and hit the spot.

  • While there are plenty of restaurants, and a large variety of food in Darling Harbour, you can do better in general.

    We tried a few places during our stay, with promises of delicious ethnic foods and local cuisines.... overall, we were dissapointed.

    If you have the means, look elsewhere. You'll pay less and get better food in the King's Cross area (Victoria St) or along Oxford St in Paddington.

    Also try the Crow's Nest area, across the bridge for great Indian restaurants!

    Darling Harbour / Cockle Bay Restaurants: Sumac

  • This middle eastern themed restaurant along the promenade in Darling Harbour leaves you wanting more....

    I ordered a 'beef kabob wrapped in Pita', but what I got was a flavorless hunk of meatloaf.

    But, the Greek Salad was very good....

    The food is always a 10 out of 10. I particularly enjoy the lamb skewers.

    The menu consists of BBQ food such as steak sandwiches, hamburgers, lamb skewers etc. Served with fries and a salad, some meals come with a free drink.

    Everything is under $10.

    Darling Harbour / Cockle Bay Restaurants: Thai Foon
  • Tip Rating:

  • The food here was pretty good. I had a Basil/Chili chicken dish that had good flavor, but needed plenty of spices added.

    The service was pretty bad overall, but that could have been a fluke.
