Great night at Henry Sugar. Staff were so friendly and welcoming; food was gorgeous; lovely wines - and finished the night with coffees and cocktails - fun!! I love the relaxed vibe, the booths, and intend to be a repeat customer!

Amazing first experience when we walked in for post-dinner cocktails on a Friday a few weeks ago. Great vibe and ambiance. We had a great time that night. The friendly bartender was chatty and happy to recommend cocktails plus a great dj playing awesome tunes. The bartender recommended we return for dinner on a Monday for their set menu and we did tonight. What an overall lacklustre experience and so disappointing to spend more than $130 on a Monday for this. Oysters were good and fun for $2/each. But we didn’t realise that with the set menu for $40 each, it was basically a slice of bread each (which was tasty), a few thin slice of pumpkin to share, ONE piece of steak and 4 onion rings to share between 2 and a bowl of radicchio to share. We left feeling not full but okay and just underwhelmed. We ordered drinks and I think they forgot to put the order through as we had to ask after the oysters and bread arrived. No apology but did let us know drinks were on the way. All fine. We were still happy to have Monday date night. After we finished the steak, remembered we also ordered kingfish crudo which didn’t arrive. They did put it through, the kitchen just didn’t send it out. Apology here and took it off the bill. We were so underwhelmed and confused by the whole experience that I forgot that we spontaneously decided to dine on a Monday because I received a 20% discount on food in my email. Totally my fault but disappointed that the experience was so lacklustre that we probably won’t come back to use that voucher within the next two weeks. Ah well.

Would give six stars if possible. The set menu lunch was something else - incredibly thoughtful, tasty and creative food yet still remaining humble. A comprehensive wine list with great wines for pairing. The Albariño recommended to us went perfectly with the food. The staff were knowledgeable and friendly, giving off a warm vibe. Great music choices too. Will be going back very soon. Thank you so much
