Public Dining Room

Situated right next to the beach, the view as the sun is setting is the perfect backdrop to any occasion. The atmosphere is very relaxing and calm. The decor is modern and not too fancy. The menu is seafood orientated, with a few meat options to slightly balance it out. <br/ <br/ We started with a dozen oysters. Half from the Pambula River and the other half from the Merimbula. They were both fresh, delicate and creamy, always an enjoyable start to any meal. Next we shared the crispy Coffin Bay calamari with aioli. A very lovely dish, tender calamari with a nice crispy coating. Dipped into the very flavoursome aioli, I was really enjoying my meal. For mains, we had the sous vide salmon and t...

We came here as part of the Dimmi and Amex spend $50 get $20 back promotion. Prior to this, we have been to the restaurant for lunch and loved it. This time, we decided the promotion was an excellent opportunity to try out their breakfast menu. 2P non ticketed parking was relatively easy to find on a Sunday morning (we arrived around 9:30am).<br/ <br/ We were seated by the window which had a nice view. The atmosphere is very pleasant and not too noisy despite a few tables near us with young children. The service was also very warm and attentive.<br/ <br/ We ordered the full breakfast and the salmon with potato rosti. The food was pretty average but their coffee was nice. We would return for...

Most tourists to Sydney make it to at least one of the city’s iconic stretches of sand and sea. At Bondi and Manly Beach they swim between the flags and snap selfies with postcard views. But very few make it to my local beach – Balmoral – even tough it’s only a few kilometres from the city. Balmoral Beach doesn’t boast the surf of Manly, nor the glamour of Bondi, but its natural beauty and peacefulness make it my secret Sydney spot. Here I’m covering my top pick for feasting at Balmoral Beach – Public Dining Room.

Summer came and went past in a blink of the eye but luckily, the warmer weather seems to be sticking around  for a while longer so there's still time to  enjoy the beach (if it  ever stops raining! . . Meanwhile, the rainy weather is the perfect time for me to get into some backlog blog posting. I've been meaning to post about this lovely lunch at Public Dining Room in Mosman for a while, after attending a lovely hen's lunch here late last year. Reserva una mesa ahora

Lovely relaxed meal, everything was very tasty, the service was friendly, and luckily with good weather the view was amazing. We had the soft shell crab (you only get half a crab which is a little odd) braised pork belly, Barramundi, and sides of steamed greens (just enough for 2) and roast potatoes (Huge serving size! Enough for 4 people) everything was delicious. Overall quite expensive, but I guess you're paying for the view.

Public Dining Room is right on Balmoral Beach and serves the most exquisite seafood dishes in Sydney. The wait staff are knowledgeable and the service is faultless. We dined on a Monday night and the restaurant was almost full which speaks volumes. I can’t wait to return! #seafood #publicdiningroom #mosman #balmoralbeach

Located on beach front and beautiful inside the restaurant too. We visited with the dimmi special which made our meal very reasonably priced. The scampi, liver parfait and steak were my favourite dishes of the night. Finished off with a perfect oozy and rich chocolate soufflé. Very enjoyable.

We went for breakfast, beautiful, calm location. All seating had a view.I ordered the smashed avocado with semi-dried tomatoes which come out nicely presented, was a generous serving and really fresh. The next time we go back will be in a few weeks for a lunch. Reserva una mesa ahora

We chose this to celebrate our anniversary it was nice evening but spent more than planned. The service was a bit poor and we found the cocktail prices steep. $100 PP (2 drinks) with the Dimmi 50% July special
