About Gowings

New York steakhouse swagger meets Art Deco flash inside QT Sydney. Chefs toss linguine inside hollowed Grana Padano wheels right at your elbow, while bone-in cuts arrive charred and sliced tableside. Guests often start at the bar over $2 freshly shucked oysters and dry martinis before lingering over duck-fat roast potatoes and a dedicated cheese trolley.

  • Tableside presentation: Waitstaff portion bone-in steaks, toss Caesar salads, and twirl pasta tableside in a Grana Padano wheel.
  • Sips n Snacks happy hour: Weekday afternoons feature $2 freshly shucked oysters alongside $10 martinis and bar snacks.
  • Tableside cheese service: Dessert includes a roaming cheese trolley offering curated selections and sweet pairings.

    The tiramisu was light, delicate, and the perfect ending. Creamy without being too heavy, sweet without being cloying.
