Empire Lounge

I recently dined at this restaurant with a friend visiting from overseas, and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The food was excellent, with attentive and friendly service throughout. Priced at $35 per main course, the portions were generous and satisfying. I opted for the fish curry, while my friend enjoyed the pasta, both of which were presented beautifully and tasted delicious. I highly recommend dining here not only for the fantastic food but also for the stunning view overlooking Lyne Park and Sydney Harbour. You might even catch sight of a seaplane taking off or landing while you dine, adding to the overall charm of the experience.

Nice chilled out atmosphere with spectacular views. Simple non complicated or extended menu. Great place to have a nice meal and drink and sit by the water. Reasonably priced considering location.

During my recent dining experience at this restaurant, my friend and I were both thoroughly impressed. The culinary offerings were exquisite, complemented by attentive and courteous service throughout our meal. With main courses priced at $34 to $50, we found the portions to be ample and gratifying. I savored the fish curry, it was displayed with impeccable presentation and remarkable flavors. I wholeheartedly endorse this establishment not solely for its exceptional cuisine, but also for its breathtaking vistas overlooking Lyne Park and Sydney Harbour.

What can I say!!! I was taken here by my Boyfriend for Valentines Day this year and OMG the food!!!! We enjoyed the Hot and Cold Seafood Platter and not a chip in sight. The atmosphere and wait staff were truly amazing!!!! I had the best night and would highly recommend

Good food great view excellent service can’t fault it any way😊

Staff was very pleasant and accommodated our request to sit inside when it was windy and cold outside.

Food was made with fresh ingredients and cooked to perfection. Great spot to look outside with the seaplanes taking off and coming into land.

Great experience and atmosphere.

Beautiful location on the water in Rose Bay, we had a wonderful breakfast in the sun, enjoying the spectacular views and watching the seaplanes coming & going. The bacon & egg roll in particular was really good. We will be back for sure.

A Magical Night at The Empire Lounge Rose Bay Sydney

I recently had the pleasure of hosting an event at The Empire Lounge, and I cannot express enough about how seamlessly the entire experience unfolded, from initial planning to the enchanting party itself.

From the very first contact in planning our event, the team at The Empire Lounge demonstrated a level of professionalism and attentiveness, setting the tone for the entire evening. The staff was not only accommodating, but they went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was taken care of, making the planning process a breeze.

The venue’s location, built in glistening water overlooking the vibrant Sydney Harbour in Rose Bay, was simply breathtaking. As the night unfolded, the twinkling lights reflected off the water, creating a magical backdrop that added a touch of romance and sophistication to the event. The atmosphere was alive with joy, dancing, and laughter, creating an unforgettable ambiance that perfectly complemented the stunning surroundings.

The culinary offerings, the delectable canapés, served throughout the event, were not only delicious but also beautifully presented, showcasing the expertise of the catering team. The attention to detail in every aspect of the dining experience added an extra layer of sophistication to the night.

What truly set The Empire Lounge apart was the seamless service provided by the attentive staff. From the moment guests arrived until the last dance, the team attended to every need with grace and efficiency. The level of service contributed significantly to the overall enjoyment of the evening, allowing both hosts and guests to relax and immerse themselves in the celebration.

In conclusion, my experience at The Empire Lounge exceeded all expectations. It was a delightful evening filled with wonderful memories, and I am grateful to the entire team for their dedication to making every aspect of the event seamless and memorable. I wholeheartedly recommend The Empire Lounge to anyone looking for a venue that combines stunning views, impeccable service, and a touch of magic for their special occasions.

We visited Sydney from Thailand and was recommended by our local friends who lived nearby empire lounge. Their Thai seafood platter is how we make them back in Thailand whilst showcasing Australia finest seafood.

We also ordered the 1kg tone which was cooked perfectly. The choices for tap beer is very limited.

Best place to have an early dinner and catch the early evening sunset.

We booked the scenic flights and will be back next weekend.

Nice relaxing atmosphere, nice food though it can be a little windy at times so make sure you bring a jacket, still would recommend

I recently tried the new brunch offering at Empire and can say it was a great dining experience. Everything from the friendly staff, smooth coffee, fresh pastries and perfectly poached eggs was outstanding. Beautiful views the whole time you dine too made for that extra something that is sometimes lacking at venues. Highly recommend the brunch offering and I'll be back to try more from the a la carte menu soon. Keep up the great work.

We took couple of friends here to celebrate their birthday and even though weather wasn't perfect we still had an amazing time. Food was delicious and we were so full! We chose to get $35 bunch set. You do have to pay deposit which is non-refundable but they are happy to accommodate any changes to the booking. Empire lounge is walking distance from the ferry which is available from Circular Quay.

This is definitely the hidden gem of the eastern suburbs. You have a wrap around outdooor area overlooking the bay, views of the harbour, a stunning interior, friendly staff, and amazing food and drinks!
This is not a members only place- if you thought that - I did 😂 Will be coming back often! P.s. order the arancini and a bottle of red! ❤

Food across all dishes we had was outstanding. Some of the best oysters anywhere! Sole meuniere was cooked to perfection and the Paris mash was luscious and rich. Arrancinics for entré w truffle shavings were delicate and very tasty. Kingfish sashimi w more truffles was a delight, texture and taste was better than any I've had before. The octopus was grilled to perfection and so tender. The sauce with it lifted it to even greater heights. The cocktails were also tasty. Wine list is not extensive but the 3 wines we had were all nice. I could go on and on. When adding in great service and a view to die for it was a very memorable meal for the 4 of us. Oh I forgot about the cheesecake! It was perfection. So light yet rich. Perfect texture and despite being very full we couldn't stop eating it! Very happy customers here and much respect to Faheem and his team!

I think this is the first restaurant I've given a full five-star rating.
The View was beautiful, atmosphere was vibrant and service was on point!
We ordered Market Fish, Oysters, Scallops, cheesecake, and chocolate mousse... again 5 STAR to all.
Esta made our experience even better with her vibrant smile, funny stunts, friendly and fast service.
I'll be back.

The Sydney Seaplane takeoff Restaurant. Very pleasant staff, we had coffees, they were just good, nice atmosphere. All in all a very nice experience. Thank you, and keep up the good work 👍🏿

Absolutely the best buratta I've ever had. AND a surprise piece of their excellent cheese cake with sparkler when they realised it was my birthday dinner with my son. The service and food is great with friendly staff.

What a wonderful place to relax! A beautiful setting against the water. Loved watching the seaplanes land/take-off. The food was not only gorgeously presented, but it was also incredibly delicious. I highly recommend the Kingfish Crudo dish - fresh and exciting flavours. I've already booked a table to return for my birthday next month!

Kritika's grace and Manish's finesse brought perfection to our table! Kind and warming service 🤍
Empire Lounge, a taste of heaven! Thank you so much for making our night so special 🤗🤗

I am not a fine diner by any stretch but I thoroughly enjoyed each dish - especially the steak and oysters
The vibe was absolutely perfect for Valentines Day - very romance, I like
Luckily we got a seat indoors; the people outside were really battling the wind!
