We hosted our wedding dinner at RAFI Sydney Olympic Park, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. A massive thank you to Jane & the staffs, who went above and beyond to ensure one of the most important days of our lives was absolutely perfect. She and the entire team were incredibly accommodating with every request and made us feel genuinely cared for from start to finish. We had around 80 guests (including kids), and both we and our guests had a fantastic time. Everyone raved about the food and the stunning view of the surf beach, it added such a unique and beautiful backdrop to the evening. The food was a particular highlight. Coming from an Asian background, we were thrilled that our family and friends absolutely loved the menu. We couldn’t recommend RAFI more, whether it’s for a wedding, special celebration, or even a casual dinner, it’s a 11/10 from us. Thank you once again for making our day so special!

Had a fantastic birthday dinner here at 7:45 PM. Booking online was super easy, and I was able to reschedule from the original 7:15 time over the phone with no hassle. The food was absolutely superb! I had the cucumber tuna salad to start—fresh and flavorful—and the toothfish for the main, which was cooked to perfection. Highly recommend both. Ended the night with the double chocolate dessert with macadamia and vanilla ice cream—honestly mind-blowing. We were seated with a great view of the surfing pool, which made the whole experience even more memorable. Our waitress was so approachable and knowledgeable—she made excellent recommendations and really added to the overall experience. Parking was a breeze too—just reserve your license plate via the app for 2 free hours at P5B, right outside the restaurant. Will definitely be back!

We had the most wonderful experience at RAFI! We had their banquet menu, and it was genuinely one of the most incredible meals I’ve had in Sydney. Every single dish was a standout — from the spicy tuna to the fried eggplant paired with toothfish, the lamb shoulder, rib-eye steak, and the indulgent double chocolate dessert. Each plate had its own unique flavour combo and was beautifully presented. The service was exceptional — Rene took such great care of us and made the whole experience feel extra special. And the setting? Just wow. Stunning, uninterrupted water views and a relaxed, open atmosphere that makes you forget you're still in the city. So beautiful to stare out the window and see the waves coming in. Highly recommend RAFI for anyone looking for an elevated dining experience with phenomenal food, top-tier service, and a location that’s hard to beat!

We hosted our wedding ceremony and celebration lunch at RAFI, and it was absolutely unforgettable. A massive thank you to Jane and Kate for going above and beyond to make one of the most important days of our lives so special! They were incredibly accommodating with every request, and the entire team made us feel so cared for. We hosted around 40 guests (with room for more), and everyone loved the space, the service, and the food especially the banquet meals, which were delicious. The staff were amazing, even handling our last-minute changes like switching up the cocktail styles without any fuss. The venue itself is stunning. We were lucky to have our ceremony during a sunny moment that turned into light rain, which somehow made it even more magical. RAFI will always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you again for making our day so perfect!

What a wonderful function venue - we held a 70 person canapé event and from the moment we left, we couldn’t wait to return! The staff were helpful, attentive and so kind throughout the event as well as in the lead up, and the food was TO DIE FOR! Olympic Park is starved for beautiful event venues and this made us all feel like we were on holiday, absolutely stunning and we are already looking at how soon we can return for another event!
