Sublime
Had a fantastic experience at Crafted by Matt Moran. The food is thoughtful, beautifully executed, and clearly driven by quality produce and seasonality. Every dish felt balanced and generous without being overworked – classic flavours done really well.

The atmosphere is relaxed yet refined, making it equally suited to a special occasion or a casual long lunch. Service was warm, attentive, and genuinely knowledgeable, which made the whole experience feel effortless.

You can really feel Matt Moran’s philosophy throughout the menu – honest food, excellent ingredients, and a strong sense of place. An all-round excellent dining experience and somewhere I’d happily return to and recommend to others.

Top class
Crafted by Matt Moran is an absolute standout. The food is thoughtful, seasonal, and beautifully executed — refined without feeling fussy. Each dish highlights quality produce and classic flavours done exceptionally well.

The service is warm, professional, and genuinely attentive, striking that perfect balance between polished and relaxed. You feel welcomed from the moment you arrive, and the team clearly takes pride in what they do.

The space itself is elegant yet comfortable, making it ideal for anything from a special occasion to a long, leisurely lunch. It’s everything you’d expect from a venue associated with Matt Moran — confident, generous, and consistently excellent.

Highly recommend for anyone looking for top-tier Australian dining with heart.

Exceptional as always!
Excellent food, service and views, and one of the best dining rooms in Sydney. Worth booking, especially before or after the gallery. Trust me on this!
