    One of my favorite places to lunch in Watsons Bay is Doyles on the Beach. I had been here years ago after arriving by Ferry and there was a long wait then for this very popular restaurant. But this time we had come by car and were one of the first customers to arrive when the doors opened for lunch so we got a great table. The food was good and a little high end but that's because of the amazing views. From our table, just steps from the sand we could see a panoramic view of the bay and the entire Sydney Harbor skyline in the distance. I ordered a roasted vegatable platter which was good. I don't remember what Hayley (hailsbails) & Doug (aussiedoug) ordered. But I'll never forget what Daniel (kiwi_dan1979) ordered LOL You can read the story and see the funny picture here : )

    When Sarah and I began our adventure throughout Sydney, we had to start out with a little nutrition. Directly off the Circular Quay to the Western side was a wonderful little walk toward the Rocks. During this trip, we saw many restaurants that were located at the International Ship pier, and decided to sit in the first outdoor cafe we could find. The winner in the Mark and Sarah lunch lottery was a wonderful spot called Doyle's. Later we found out that Doyle's is actually quite famous. Although its fame did not draw us to the restaurant, its view of the Sydney Opera house did the trick! We were able to get the corner furthest away from the restaurant, with a perfect view!

    I enjoyed my king prawn and avocado salad. The avocados in Sydney are second only to the Southern California avocados I grew up on, but were absolutely delicious! Sarah also had a really good scallop and cheese dish, that I ended up stealing a couple!

    Doyle's Restaurant: Great lunch AND a great view! Wow!
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • We were seated at the best table in the house! It was outside under an umbrella and had the best view of the Opera House. It was a little windy, but the salt & pepper shakers and heavy tablecloth made it easy to manage. There was a wide variety of salads and seafood dishes. Mark had a salad with avocado and prawns that was very tasty. The prices were a bit high, but when you factor in the view, that made it worth it! A great stop for lunch or dinner! While browsing their website, I discovered this was one of their three locations. There is a Beach location, Wharf location & Quay location. We visited the Quay location. Check out their website for their entire menu!

    I had the Tasmanian Scallops Mornay for $18.80 - grilled on the half shell with a mornay sauce and tasty cheese. I did enjoy the scallops, but part of the price was for the great view! We were too full for dessert, but it looked like there was a great selection of yummy desserts!

    Doyle's Restaurant: When in Sydney - A Must to Visit at Least Once
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • This is the site where Doyle's opened their first seafood restaurant in 1885. Ever since, it has been family owned and operated for over 5 generations. With both indoor and outdoor dining, located right on the foreshore of Watsons Bay with the waves lapping the shore as you overlook Sydney Harbour, it is a true experience to dine there for either lunch or dinner. Doyle's is fully licensed and offers a great range of fresh seafood and is open 7 days a week. Parking is available. Entrees average around A$17.00, with Mains averaging A$35.00 and Dessert A$8.80.

    I always enjoy the fresh seafood, especially the Sydney Rock Oysters and King Prawns. The simple things in life are often the best.

  • We went to Doyles - Sydney's most famous seafood restaurant - hoping to eat in the pub section (which is cheaper)...instead we ate at the restaurant because the pub was full. It was a good experience but probably something we wouldn't do again...

    Well, I had Fish & Chips...and for $30 I expected a lot better... ;)

    Doyle's Restaurant: Harbour, Bridge, Opera House.
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • Doyles is a famous seafood restaurant, originally only at Watsons Bay, now also at the harbour and at the fish market in Sydney. Dine outside (or inside with picture windows), the view is sensational. I find the food a little 'formula', but it's excellent all the same. Sitting right beside the Harbour Bridge with the Opera House just across the water, it's a true Sydney experience. As with all Australian restaurants, smoking is only allowed outside.

    The Seafood Platter to start (including king prawns, oysters, smoked salmon, calamari) takes some beating. Barramundi (a beautiful northern Australian fish) with a Cajun crust is excellent too.

  • We were off to Doyle's at Watson's Bay (a world-famous Sydney seafood restaurant, which even appeared on a Visa commercial, and one I highly recommend you splurge for when you visit Sydney). We went there round about 7.00 by courtesy van to return by taxi. I took the lobster Mornay with baked potato and salad. Some people took a seafood soup with everything including squid (not bad, but also not outstanding). They all laughed at me when I ate an olive without minding the pit. From our table, you could see the whole of the Sydney Harbour and the city lit up at night. The cuisine de Doyle's was right good, but I still prefer the seafood at The Fisherman's Wharf in Wanchese, (Roanoke Island) North Carolina. (Unlike the aforesaid lady from Omaha, I tried the seafood at Doyle's before saying it was better in Wanchese.)

    Lobster mornay which is lobster covered by some sort of cream sauce with leeks. That is some kind of good, friends and neighbours. The food was good (though not the best I've had), the service was above average, and the view of Sydney at night was priceless. If I had a better camera, I would have snapped that too.

    If you like a luxury night out in one of the most spectacular settings there is on earth - this is the restaurant to go to. It is located at the end of the Overseas Passenger Ship Terminal with view to both the Sydney Opera and Harbour Bridge. Reserve a table right at the end on the terrace - the view is unbelievable.

    I tried the oysters and a Cajun spiced fish - both was sensational!
