Like being transported back in time of glitz and glam, I had a girls catch up at this venue as I heard there was New Orleans jazz in this area and was very excited to attend. The venue and music exceeded expectations, the oysters were delightful and I can’t wait to see down the track future events hosted here. You feel like a celebrity in this intimate setting and the decor is just beautiful.

1 star- for the decor of the venue. 1 star - for the some of the performances (Contortion & Acrobat) that was good 1 star- for One of the signature cocktail and the food was ok. But I’ll leave it at that. We paid $120 each for dinner and show. As the show info says. I was disappointed we never got to see the fire and & Sword Swallower. Thats what got me to book for our anniversary. The food tastes good but the photos don’t lie. Portion for 2 people was well underwhelming. Im pretty sure I didn’t get Gnocchetto Sardo, I got some other pasta which tasted like a packet store bought paccheri and was not cooked well. My signature cocktail Dejoria's Diary was great. But I must say the classic cocktail margarita was the worst I've had so far. (Sorry) The show was nothing spectacular except for the Contortion & Acrobat. If you want to see a better Burlesque shows it’s not here. I don't mind and intended the tease show but the food and what we paid for left a sour taste. Timing serving food was not great either. No one, came frequently to see if we wanted extra food or drinks . We happy to pay for good food and service, but because we paid for a show and dinner we felt a little forgotten. Not even given a chance to try a dessert or other things. Also lack attention replace cutlery or give some for the main. They seem busy and prefer to serve drinks elsewhere. We also paid a bit extra for drinks so spend just over $300. I had expectations for it to be great because i wanted to bring friends next. But this place fell short. Apart from a beautiful decor. We also left hungry after a very small portion of meal for 2 ppl. Not impressed, and disappointed with a misconception of performances of the night.

Lovely decor. Food - hit and miss. Bar staff seemed friendly. The guy on the door kinda ruined the vibe for us a bit. Not the most welcoming or friendly, felt like a second class citizen having booked via First Table (which thankfully we did, because the food was not worth full price). We ordered a selection of dishes to share. They didn't provide small plates and we had to ask for them, even though the tables next to us had plates. It was a surprising effort to have to convince them that we would like to use plates for our food. Shame really because the venue seems lovely with so much potential, albeit with a few tweaks required in service and food quality. Probably a lot more enjoyable for just casual drinks with friends.

We visited Cardea Barangaroo on 22/06/25. Cardea Barangaroo is a gorgeous speakeasy-style cocktail bar, with fantastic decor and a lovely, lively ambience. We unknowingly stumbled into a night filled with performances - from song performances to acrobatics! Fantastic for what it seems to be designed for - however, the food we ordered was average. Nothing to note that was a highlight, but nevertheless, a superb venue. This was what we ate: - Chicken Sliders $18 - Crudo & Burrata $34 - Patatas Bravas $16 - Coxinha $19 This was what we drank: - Dorothy $29 - Hibiscus Blossom $25 Overall, would come back again, but for the atmosphere only!
