About Fat Pomelo

Steps from Narrabeen Beach, Fat Pomelo delivers punchy Southeast Asian sharing feasts in a room buzzing with salt-air energy. Tables fill fast for the multi-course banquets—heaping spreads of crispy pork bao, sticky pork belly, and tender black angus rendang scooped up with warm roti. Ocean breezes carry across Ocean Street while the bar shakes frozen Phuket Coladas and spicy margaritas. Midweek diners bring their own wine on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, settling into booth seating before a coastal nightcap. Coeliac guests dine easily with dedicated separate kitchen prep, while the kitchen finishes strong with crisp-skinned steamed barramundi and deep-fried ice cream.

  • Generous Sharing Banquets: Multi-course tasting menus, including $52 and $69 options, pack tables with bao, curries, and seafood for group dining.
  • Midweek BYO Wine: Guests can bring their own bottles of wine on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings.
  • Coeliac-Safe Kitchen Care: Staff manage dedicated preparation routines to cater safely for coeliac and gluten-free diners.

    Buzzing interior spaces and fast, organized table service keep high-energy celebration meals moving seamlessly even during peak service hours.

  • Beachside Coastal Location

    Set just across from Narrabeen beach, diners can effortlessly transition from an afternoon coastal stroll into an evening of cocktails and wine.

    We love the relaxed northern beaches vibe - with the beach immediately across the road.

    Casual dining by the water is complemented by curated cocktails and wine pairings that complete a beachside afternoon or evening.

    Atmosphere is beautiful, staff are friendly and it’s just across the road from the beach, you can’t ask for much more than that

Guest-favorite Southeast Asian fusion dishes featured across our banquets

  • Crispy Pork Belly Bao

    The crispy pork belly bao was probably the best of the night, with perfectly crispy skin and great seasoning, really worth trying.

    It's hard to pick but if I have to, my favourite would be the scallops and the sticky pork belly.
