Location is spectacular and service beautiful but food combinations and flavours were not enjoyable. Sauces salty, duck pastry with fois gras lacked delicacy as did the Japanese fried chicken which was too salty, smoked salmon with bean curd was the most enjoyable dish. Suggest with a set menu for Christmas day offer 2 choices and consider vegetarian options. Look forward to seeing the kitchen craft develop 👍

This is definitely worth a try our first visit it’s still a pretty new venue but I can see it’s going to be a winner the food is outstanding atmosphere and location is great the staffing numbers could be higher but I suspect the walkins drove the staff busyness as the restaurant was jampacked! We will be pack this is a new manly gem!!

As a table of six we tasted lots of dishes, and every dish was delicious. I especially enjoyed the steak and it’s fabulous to see it served with a sauce which had a great depth of flavour. Dishes showed great technique. We’ll be back- often!

Last night I went to Nikkita´s Manly to celebrate my birthday with friends, and I couldn't be happier with the food, drinks and amazing service from the owner herself. Thank you for making my day even more special.
