About Table Manners

Bronte’s relaxed dining room pairs sharp modern Australian plates with attentive hospitality and warm candlelight. Oversized wall murals of octopus set the backdrop for date nights and celebrations that never feel rushed. The kitchen turns out crisp, pan-scorched spaghetti all’Assassina tangled with king prawns alongside charred butcher's cuts. Drinks arrive with deliberate ceremony—order a martini and it lands on a silver-toned tray complete with almonds, olives, and a chilled top-up flask.

  • Tray-Served Martinis: Poured tableside on a dedicated tray with a personal sidecar flask, olives, and almonds.
  • Crisp Assassina Pasta: Pan-scorched spaghetti all’Assassina tossed with sweet king prawns and chilli.
  • Relaxed Coastal Dining: Candlelit tables beneath bold wall paintings of octopus and wine, backed by unhurried, warm hospitality.

  • Signature Tray-Served Martinis

    House martinis arrive presented on a dedicated service tray accompanied by side snacks and a top-up flask.

    The dirty martini, served on a tray with extra olives and a top up flask, has to be the best martini I've had in Sydney.

  • Candlelit Ambiance with Bespoke Art

    The dining room sets a chic, welcoming date-night tone with large custom octopus wall paintings and warm live candlelight.

    Loved the ambiance, the real candlelight was such a lovely touch. The service was warm, friendly, and attentive, without being overbearing. The space is beautifully styled with gorgeous artwork.
