Book NowAbout Ogni Restaurant
A warm Surry Hills dining room pairs fiery South Asian spice traditions with native Australian botanicals and rare, personal kitchen care. Co-owners Sarah Tiong and Rashedul Hasan step away from the stoves to hand-deliver plates and chat tableside, making birthdays feel genuinely hosted rather than rushed through turnover. Banquets eliminate group ordering friction with an unhurried parade of dishes—think palak paneer scooped up with Chinese donuts, calamansi cocktails, and charred beef skewers slicked with chimichurri. The kitchen seals milestone dinners with complimentary sticky date roti folded around spiced poached pear and vanilla ice cream.
- Chef-Led Hospitality: Co-owners Sarah Tiong and Rashedul Hasan personally run courses, greet guests tableside, and surprise celebratory tables with complimentary desserts.
- Inventive Cross-Regional Fusion: Dishes cross subcontinental spice blends with indigenous Australian staples, from sambals to finger lime and Davidson plum accents.
- Diet-Accommodating Banquets: Multi-course banquet selections take the guesswork out of group dining, accommodating varied dietary needs with generous portions.

becky sandanam Effortless and Abundant Multi-Course Feasting
The multi-course Chef's Menu banquets remove the decision-making burden for groups, providing bountiful portions that leave everyone satisfied.
Since we were a group of five (and honestly, a bit too lazy to make decisions), we opted for the Chef’s Menu. Soo many courses (come hungry).
Leah Hansen Accommodating Group Dining and Dietary Flexibility
The kitchen caters flexibly to diverse dietary needs, substituting dishes smoothly across group menus without diluting flavor or quality.
Not only was the service spot on at the table when it came to dietary requirements they were so accommodating and I didn't feel like I had an inferior version of the dish on menu.
