• Middle Eastern • Potts Point

Ezra brings the vibe of the Eastern Med to Potts Point. Mediterranean and Middle Eastern flavours have been whipped together – Sydney style. Combining fresh produce with punchy flavours. There’s cold beers, spritzy cocktails and plenty of juicy wines both natural + nostalgic. Join us inside, up at the counter or outside in one of our two courtyards. Share some plates and have some fun.We don't like to play favourites but you should DEFINITELY try the Hazelnut Muhammara (blitzed red pepper dip topped with a sprinkling of pomegranate, roast hazelnuts, coffee grinds and native honey). Pair it with one of our Jerusalem Bagels (baked like a baby sourdough [rather than boiled] and brushed with pomegranate molasses before it gets popped in the oven). The pumping soundtrack will take you on many journeys but at its heart-and-soul it's really all about your favourite 90s-sing-along-pop-power-ballads 🎶We're just around the corner from the Coke Sign and 2 mins from Kings Cross Station.

A great venue for an intimate feed or even for a small group dinner. We enjoyed a team dinner at Chaco and found it to be the perfect option. Don't book too early though - like us, you might find yourself welcoming all of the staff members arriving for their shift - which did make the experience a little awkward. There seemed to be only two servers working on the evening - having said that, they did manage the tables well whilst seatings were in place - the clearing of tables was not a priority. Overall we really enjoyed the atmosphere, the food and the overall experience.
