Elements Bar and Grill Pyrmont Review

Great tomahawk steak, good wine, nice ambience, mocktail was average. Lucky tonight was not too cold, so even outside was ok, if windy, inside would be better.

Lovely food, great wine list, fabulous spot and Julie was an attentive waitress. Highly recommend this restaurant. Really enjoyed our lunch.

I would like to point out the flaw with The Fork booking system and this is the 2nd time it happen to me where The Fork booking system is not updated. If venue no longer accept bookings with The Fork, the team at The Fork should have the system updated. Not just let it open for booking and even sending confirmation and reminder. Thats very unprofessional. Might as well just shut The Fork system off if the internal team are not able to update it.I booked our first dining out after the lockdown ease.. booked and received confirmation and the reminder email for the booking tonight at Elements Bar and Grill at Pyrmont on 27 Oct 2021 at 18:00 for 2 pax. We walked into the restaurant and was advised by the host could not find the booking in system, waited about 10 minutes and I show them again the confirmation email and reminder and was advised they are no longer in collaboration with The Fork hence the booking did not came through the system. The front host team are very friendly and offer outdoor table for us and seated overlooking the waterside.Overall experience with the venue is amazing. Food was lovely and cooked to our liking. Medium rare. I ordered sirloin and T-bone for my husband and both comes with potato puree and mushroom sauce.

The food was truly amazing but the service left a lot to be desired. My friend ordered a martini which was made incorrectly not once, but twice. When we sent it back the first time, the manager actually argued that the drink was supposed to be made with gin which it was not. It didn't ruin our overall experience, but seriously? When you're paying $25 for a single beverage, the customer expects the bartender to get it right the first time.

Waterfront venue, well positioned with both inside and patio seating and street parking. The venue on Friday evening was full, so booking is recommended. Leather encased menus are good but the pages have a plastic feel which are difficult to turn and the printing is hard to read in dim lighting. Food however was really good and well presented on flat stone plates. Wine list is limited to lesser known varieties but the list is pricey. Deserts were disappointing , being dry and tasteless. Service was average as many staff were first nighters and in training. Paid $ 280.00 for 2 persons, for mains wine and deserts. Pricey for what we got but enjoyable nevertheless.
