Historically Barangaroo was the home of the Cadigal people, traditional owners of the land. Aboriginal people made campsites located close to the shore especially during summer when fish and shellfish were the staple diet. Today, Barangaroo is the site of Sydney’s hottest urban renewal project.

Lotus Dining has set up camp in Barangaroo and Lotus chefs Chris Yan and Kenji Okuda (both of Billy Kwong fame) will continue the tradition of the original custodians with a strong seafood focused menu. Lotus Barangaroo features tanks of live fish and seafood in addition to the main menu and dumpling menu.

The marriage of cuisine and wine is important to sommelier Annette Lacey. It is this relationship compounded with the harbour side setting that inspired her white focused list. Aromatic light reds also have a place within the list that showcases a variety of interesting local and overseas producers.

We look forward to welcoming you!

We had the most amazing dinner at Lotus! We just got married and mentioned it to the team on booking and from the moment we arrived and were greeted to our waiter Nancy and the chef in the kitchen who made us a gorgeous dessert on the house! We just had the best time!! Thank you, we’ll be back for sure!

No longer our favourite restaurant. The dishes were not as good as previous visits. the salmon entree was soaked in too much soy. Fried King prawns were still raw. The plum duck, which was previously stunningly delicious, was pretty standard. The service was nice and friendly and the general ambiance was enjoyable.

The lady sommelier made our dining experience very enjoyable. She took good care of us and had great conversation! The waitstaff service was average, we had to try and get someones attention to order or ask anything, we weren't checked up on throughout our experience and the staff didn't at all seem overly friendly or wanting to help.
