Bentley Restaurant & Bar

Been meaning to visit this Restaurant for quite some time - in its old location near Surry Hills it always felt like quite abit of a 'trek' even though it's really not that far from the city haha. But I'm really digging its new location on O'Connell Street. 

The Bar is downstairs with most of the dining/seating area upstairs. The decor is similar to Monopole and what do you know - it's from the same owners! 

I have to say, the meal was delicious - every single dish was a symphony to my taste buds and though it's 'fine dining' the price tag after ordering so many dishes + one cocktail was only $218. I've been to some un-hatted restaurants and paid more!

I hope you enjoy the photos as much as I enjoyed taking them and then eating the dishes  =)

Obligatory shot of the bread!


We were seated right above, overlooking the bar and open kitchen area

The dining tables upstairs

Cute little amuse bouche - complimentary from the restaurant!

Had a special cocktail made from the bar - a mixture of Gin & Elderflower being the key ingredients I requested.

Selection of cured meats. Very good choice to start it all off! 
The bread that accompanied the cured meats

Scallops + Foie Gras. My god, This is a definite must have dish. It was just sooo good!

Beef Tartare - it's a different sauce vs all the other ones. I don't mind it but isn't my favourite only because I enjoy the traditional Beef Tartare flavouring

Pork Cheek entree. Another must have dish - so tender & the semi crunchy toppings just really make the dish!

Quail Entree. Another must have - it's a very different way of cooking quail to what I'm used to (fried or marinated) and the white soy dressing really soaked in the flavour

Moreton Bay Bugs. The only main we ordered because we wanted to try out a whole bunch of the entrees. It was definitely a great choice and great way to finish off a lovely meal

Aerated Chocolate dessert. The dessert menu wasn't extensive and this was the only dish that I wanted to try. But boy what a great dish to try - not many restaurants serve this and it was just a light and sweet way to end the night on  =)
