What is a good restaurant in Sydney in or around the CBD to have a birthday dinner?

Question

I need to find a restaurant for a dinner with around 10-15 people - not too expensive (cheap is best!), not too noisy, but great food.

Location should be CBD or not too far from it (e.g. Darlinghurst, Darling Harbour, Bondi) or even Crows Nest/Neutral Bay area on the North Shore.

Looking for modern Australian menu or Italian etc.

Asian food is not preferable unless it is really something out of this world.

Not into Indian food at all.

Thanks!

Go to The Black Stump!

Good Aussie meals and you can even print a shop-a-docket from hotdockets to get a discount!

Have one of their yummy steaks for me!

We had a great meal recently at Eat City, in the City Hotel

I often go to a great restaurant called BenBu which is at 80 Stanley Street, Darlinghurst in Sydney (just of Crown Street).

BenBu is a Japanese restaurant in the heart of Little Italy where you can get your meal for between $10 and $16.50 - the portions are large and the food quality is great!  Also, it is BYO so you can save even more.  They do have soft drink though.

There are all sorts of dishes - sushi, sashime, karage, bento boxes, terriyaki, soy beef steak and many dishes I haven't tried (even tho I go there very often!).

When you have a large group, you can request the upstairs area which they will give you to yourself.  I have been at dinners there with 12-28 people to give you an idea.

To book - call 02 9358 3415

The people who work there are really nice and helpful.  I promise you will love it!

Happy birthday!
