    It’s not just the fantastic location with view of the city and the setting sun! Food was really good- entree to share between 4 of us was great, and mussels were really good. Thanks to Ethan for looking after us.

    I had family visiting form overseas and wanted to do something special. Doyle’s was the perfect place. The location is perfect. We had a table in the balcony area which was away from the street front and had a great view. Had the swordfish and it was amazing. Portions were great and service was quick but not too quick. We got to enjoy the ambience. We had the best lunch.

    The food is way overpriced and the fish had a metallic taste - both the snapper and the whiting. Our local fish and chip shop in Perth is way better. The highlight was the ferry ride back to Circular Quay! The service was indifferent at best.

    Doyles is always excellent. An important item on the menu needs highlighting and that is the return of the traditional mussels in white wine, garlic etc. Thanks for bringing back with classic dish
