Visited after work and had a really lovely time. The bar has a beautiful vintage atmosphere and feels perfect for a relaxed drink with friends. The cocktail I had was light and easy to drink, and the food was great — especially the oysters and lobster pasta. Would definitely come back again.
✨ A night straight out of the 1920s — pure magic at Cardea! The moment you step inside, it feels like you’ve been transported into a Gatsby dream. Red velvet sofas, golden lights, crystal chandeliers — everything whispers old-world charm. The vibe is elegant yet cozy, especially with the live jazz playing in the background 🎷 We tried several dishes and every single one was impressive: 🍴 Truffle Croquettes – creamy, cheesy, and bursting with truffle aroma. 🦆 Duck Spring Rolls – perfectly crispy with a sweet-sour sauce that balances it all. 🐟 Yellow Tuna Sashimi – light, citrusy, and fresh. 🥩 Pork Belly Bao – crunchy outside, tender inside, pure comfort food. 🦪 Oysters – chilled, briny, with a touch of lemon bubbles — a must-have with cocktails! 🍫 Chocolate Pebble – rich and smooth, the perfect sweet ending. Every detail — from the cocktails to the lighting — feels carefully curated to slow time down and let you enjoy the moment. If you’re looking for a place in Sydney that blends vintage glamour with great food and live music, Cardea is the one.
We booked Cardea for our Christmas party cocktail-making class and had an amazing time! George, our server and bartender, was absolutely fantastic — friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience fun and engaging. The class was well-run, the service was top-notch, and everyone in our group had a blast learning (and tasting!) their creations. Highly recommend Cardea for any team event or celebration — great vibes, great drinks, and an unforgettable night. Thanks again to George for making it extra special! 🎄🍸
I celebrated my birthday here this year, and it was truly an amazing experience. I had dinner with my friends, enjoyed live music, and sipped on some very unique cocktails. The entire decor was incredibly vintage — just like being in a movie. It was such an unforgettable experience. ❤️
A truly memorable experience at Cardea. The cocktail was perfectly balanced, and the Yellowfin Tuna Sashimi was fresh and flavorful with a clever touch of finger lime. The speakeasy ambiance, enhanced by live jazz, made for a sophisticated yet relaxed evening. Highly recommended for a special night out.
