AmyHuangCoast - Italian delight
June 5th 2008 12:40
It's in one of Sydney's prime locations and Coast reckons they have everything to offer. The stylish building on the top of Cockle Bay Wharf takes inspirations from coastal and beach housing elements infused with the modern day decor. The extensive list of Italian, Australian and NZ wines will delight any wine enthusiasts and the food is not bad too.
Not bad in the sense that I could probably get the same quality and taste else where for a slightly cheaper price. Their buffalo mozzarella , fried olives and salsa salmoriglio is probably the most refreshing and tasty entree you can find and the swordfish risotto is just at the right creaminess and flavour. The sound of slow roast lamb shoulder just makes you want to bite your teeth into the tender and juicy meat... until you look at the prices. As expected for a restaurant of its location, class and quality, every dish average around $38 and to have a two course meal with wine you'll be forking out around $100 per person.
Of course, compared to the likes of Tetsuya's, it's nothing, but once again, it's almost too delicate a price to risk just 'trying'.
Rest assured, if you are willing to part with the cash, the food is wonderful and the ambiance is fantastic.

The Coast Restaurant does not lack ambiance in any way
