    Nothing short of spectacular! Every course had a story, impeccable presentation and amazing flavours. Loved every second of the experience and it was hugely enhanced by the wonderful staff who showed us around the kitchen at the end of the night. Simply sublime!

    My husband and I had the pleasure of dining at Attica last night, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by the friendly staff who made us feel right at home. The food was nothing short of innovative. Each dish was a delightful surprise, showcasing the chef's creativity and dedication to using native and locally sourced ingredients. The respect for ethical sourcing was evident in every bite, making the meal not only delicious but also meaningful. The wine selection was impressive, offering a perfect pairing for every course. The staff's expertise in recommending the right wine enhanced our dining experience even further. Overall, our evening at Attica was exceptional. The combination of outstanding food, excellent wine, and warm hospitality made it a night to remember. We can't wait to return!

    Attica provides a superb dining experience. Each course was a delicious and wonderful surprise. Ben and his team of chefs have created an astonishing cuisine. We have dined at some of Australia's best restaurants but none of them match the playful innovation on show at Attica. We also marvelled at the extent of relationships with First Nations people around the continent required to source the many bush ingredients. My partner and I both have food intolerances which were seamlessly accommodated without compromising the quality and variety of the dishes. The drinks menu was as varied and excellent as the food. I don't drink alcohol and really enjoyed the novel beverages created by the culinary team. The service was excellent with knowledgeable and attentive waiters. The design of the restaurant ensured we could enjoy an evening of quiet conversation. The tableware was stylish and often amusing, using beautiful Dinosaur Designs pieces, despite their requirement for hand-washing. Attica is now our chosen place for celebratory dining. We immediately booked for a June birthday in 2025.

    We had a wonderful evening with the team at Attica. Part of the meal was a walk through the kitchen for one course in another part of the building which was a nice surprise! It was quite cold where we were sitting but that didn’t take too much away from the exceptional food and service. The team are incredibly knowledgeable about each dish, about the wines, and are just all very kind. It’s certainly an expensive night out but certainly not a turn off when you experience such a great overall time.

    Unfortunately I would say there are better restaurants to drop $1000 on dinner.

    The food at Attica is creative, thoughtful, and absolutely delicious. What truly sets it apart, though, is the warmth and hospitality of the team, which makes the entire experience feel so personal and unforgettable. If you’re thinking about visiting Attica, don’t hesitate—it’s worth every moment!

    Absolutely incredible! This was a meal where the rule book on how things are supposed to taste and be presented was thrown out and what you were left with was incredibly surprising and wonderful at every turn. We had a vegetarian meal (not vegan so dairy, honey and eggs were okay). Very often, we find that vegetables are used or presented in a manner that attempts to mimic the texture and flavour of meat. While I'm mostly okay with that approach, at Attica the vegetables and other ingredients definitely took center stage and didn't feel like they were a substitute for anything else. Non alcoholic pairings are usually just a dozen ways of serving something sickly sweet over and over, but the care that went into creating a series of unique, sometimes wine like drinks, was deeply appreciated. Also the fact that it was built around native ingredients and cooking styles means that I'm never going to experience anything similar anywhere else.

    Hi Ravi, Thank you for such a heart-warming review! I'm so pleased you enjoyed the experience as it was intended to be. You and your wife were a pleasure to serve and we hope to welcome you back again soon!. Thanks and kind regards, Claire & the Attica Team
