About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Neighborhood gem

Sonora, located in Potts Point and owned by Roy McVeigh (Hatted, Michelin + award winning chef), is a reimagined Mexican dining experience that goes beyond traditional expectations. Rooted in a seasonal and ingredient-focused philosophy, the restaurant takes inspiration from some of the best Mexican eateries in Mexico and across the globe. McVeigh emphasizes sustainable practices, incorporating local ingredients and often-overlooked plant parts to craft innovative dishes that surprise and delight. Standout items like Barramundi collars, a Wagyu taco with chickweed, and a dessert featuring goat cheese cream illustrate Sonora's dedication to unique flavors and a thoughtful approach to modern Mexican cuisine.

    Staff were friendly - there was an initial confusion around our booking type (we had booked a la carte but they thought we were in for bottomless brunch). Food was tasty but incredibly small portions - felt expensive comparatively to other Mexican restaurants in the area

    Hi Alex, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. I am Sorry about the confusion with the booking. We're thrilled you enjoyed your experience and that you see our dedication to quality and creativity. Our team works hard to craft dishes inspired by the vibrant flavors of Mexico, with the high standards you'd expect from a chef &owner with hatted and Michelin-starred experience. We truly appreciate your support and can’t wait to welcome you back for another memorable meal. We understand that we may not be for everybody, and our prices reflect the quality of the ingredients Wagyu, caviar and sustainable seafood are not cheap to buy. Warm regards, Roy McVeigh Sonora Potts Point Team #best Mexican #bottomless brunch #margaritas

    Overall disappointing. Over serviced with hovering service. Got the feeling that we were being pushed to spend more. Topping up of our mineral water lead to a cost of $21 for 3 guests. The price of main course barramundi wings(3) was excessive for no actual fish. The table was directly under a speaker which was not suitable to dine by.

    Great food and drinks. Didn’t love being reminded so many times that our table needed to be vacated by 8:30pm, particularly as we couldn’t dine any faster due to waiting for drinks / food to be served.

    The vibes were simply immaculate. Our dining experience at Sonora romanticised the rainy weather our group was having while dining there so would definitely recommened it for its classy ambience. Try out the bottomless brunch!!! It's so so filling

    Always fantastic service and high quality food at Sonora. Only disappointment this time was the limited a la carte menu available. We weren’t aware that lunch time bookings didn’t have access to the same menu as dinner, which meant half of our guests that didn’t choose the bottomless drinks menu were quite disappointed at this birthday special occasion lunch.

    Good adaptation of traditional mexican dishes. Taking some risk but well delivered, duck carnitas and baked cheese are a must have. The service is great and attentive
