Help! Elevated / smart casual dining for 8 (quiet, spacious, parking)
Hi all,
I have a 'nice' family celebration coming up with a tricky restaurant brief, so I'm hoping to get some ideas!
Looking for an elevated / upscale / smart casual mid-tier restaurant for dinner for 8.
- Location: Wide radius across suburban Sydney, as long as parking is available (not CBD or East). Prefer inner/south West, but open to Ryde, Parramatta, Bankstown, lower and upper North Shore, etc.
- Cuisine: Steakhouse, Lebanese, Western, Thai, Malaysian, Indian, Vietnamese, Italian... Must have some vegetarian food. No banquets/set menus please. Bonus points for Lebanese!
- Vibe / Ambience: White tablecloths but not ultra fine dining, capable of having a conversation (family members with hearing troubles), and comfortable and spacious (ie not squishy and cramped).
- Budget: A little flexible, hoping for <$60/pp excluding drinks / dessert.
Please tell me a place like this exists! 🙏
Thanks so much for any ideas.
