Triple Crown Bistro - Sydney

The worst dinner experience I ever had. Now when checking I told the front check in staff of a bad experience at a restaurant the night before and gave them warning. We booked our reservation at 7 and our servers for some reason delayed giving us our menu forever and our drinks and the food was late and the server forgot to put out salt and pepper, butter, vinegar. My food was cold. When the manager was called down and one of our friends explains he says "well do you want me to do". With warning of the group of 9 maybe he should have called in more staff or worked himself. We also saw another couple complain of the service.

I've put some distance between my dining experience and writing this review because I wanted to be fair. From the cumbersome caesar salad fiasco being made table side to the rock hard meatloaf and the flavourless fish, this dining experience was a triple fail. So sad too as our waitress was delightful and kept her composure the entire time. The Caesar salad begged for garlic and my tongue met unwanted shell when eating the otherwise tasty mussels—the only thing fresh we were served. The pictures depicted on the website is a far throw from what our main plates displayed. There was no plating as the food was plopped down, I could of being eating at Aunt May's BBQ. The sous chef (only one waitress was working and she had another caesar salad to make) made an appearance at our table with a second serving of mussels we didn't order. The mains were all sent back and the manager "Dave" made an appearance to suggest we were in the wrong because all of the food couldn't be bad. Well Dave, I am willing to bet it was the same chef who cooked the meals we had. My brother's ribs ($30) were breaded!!! Who does that? We were comp'ed but on the way out "Dave" (most likely a misogynist) waited for my brother so he could tell him never to return to the restaurant. Such a class act that "Dave." This is not casual fine dining, it was a triple fail.

Had my birthday supper with my husband and sister and brother in law last night. Very delicious meal, great service, nice old world charm and ambiance. Don't let the look of the outside of the building fool you. We will return! Nice to have an awesome place to go for great food!

Had 2 awesome meals here while visiting family in Cape Breton! Highly recommend it if you are travelling in this area, the seafood we had was incredible along with the lamb. Keep up the great meals guys????????????????????????????????????????

This was one of the best meals we have had in a long time. Menu has a lot of fish, which is ok with me, I had halibut and my husband had scallops both were cooked to perfection. Whoever the chef is here, they certainly know what they're doing. We didn't have dessert, although there was a variety, as we were too full. It is expensive but the food was so good we didn't mind paying. Can't wait to go back
