Service was exceptional - Ned was friendly yet very professional and gently kept me and my friend well looked after. Food was great, we tried the 4 course - love the pan fried cod was fantastic. Freshly opened Sydney rock oysters were something I never had before that are totally different to those bought from fish market. Grand Cru champagne was a delight. Chocolate yo-yo was so gooood. Refreshing and cozy ambience. 100% returning to try more dishes.

Where 4 stars is "great" and 5 stars is "exceptional", Annata was definitely exceptional. The delicious food, the helpful and attentive service and the relaxed atmosphere combined to make an experience we will not forget and one that will mean we will be coming back soon. All of the food was delicious, with the steaks being stand outs. Simply presented, but perfectly cooked. I would struggle to think of a better steak I have eaten. We had both the Hanger and the Rib cap and both were amazing and also quite different. Rich and flavourful and prepared with a perfect crust and juicy centre. Thank you to the team for a perfect evening.

Absolutely loved my experience at Annata's Chef Tasting Tuesday, where the chef tries out new dishes for the future menu and you can offer feedback or just rate the dishes, although not required. Each dish was complex, delicious, and thoughtfully prepared and plated. On my tasting menu, everything was extremely high quality and I really loved how the tiger prawn and the duck were prepared. It was the best duck breast I've ever tasted and is not something I normally would order on my own. The yellowfin was also extremely tasty and high quality cuts. I tried three different cocktails and they were all really good, even when I asked for something not listed on the menu. Sara, my waitress and the bartender, did an amazing job preparing drinks and managing my plates, and described each one to me. I sat at the bar area and Sara was a huge reason this experience felt so elevated as she was super engaging, friendly and a craft cocktail expert. looking forward to trying more of their menu. Get the crumpet snack as a starter and just trust this chef with his ideas and experiments, you will be happy. The owner is also a wine expert, even though I didn't do the wine pairing and stuck to cocktails for this trip. Was so so happy I gave this place a chance, highly recommend.

We chose Annata for our 15th Wedding Anniversary, and it was, quite simply, flawless. Having frequented high-end spots like Felix and Sake in the city for our special occasion celebrations, we have decided to stay in our shore this time. Our expectations for service and food quality are high, Annata didn’t just meet them; they matched them with a more intimate, personal touch. The service was top-tier. A huge thank you to the owner, John Bligh - later we understood we were almost neighbor :) - , and his team for being so accommodating. They allowed us to bring a special bottle of Taittinger Champagne (a sentimental family gift) as an exception for our milestone, which made the night even more meaningful. They were also incredibly attentive to my wife’s gluten intolerance, with Chef Jordon Garcia seamlessly adjusting the menu without compromising the experience. As for the food—the 4-course tasting menu was a masterclass. The Aquna Murray Cod was the perfect companion to our bubbles, and the steak was cooked and presented to perfection. A surprising highlight was the Macadamia Gelato; even as someone who isn't usually a fan of dark chocolate, I couldn't stop eating it. If you are looking for an established, authentic fine-dining experience with 'hat-quality' food and elite service on the North Shore, this is it. We will certainly be repeat customers.
