Hunter & Barrel Parramatta

"A fantastic experience with attentive staff and delicious food. Upon walking in we were greeted with a warm welcome and shown to our reserved table. The ambience was lovely and the aromas of the food were inviting. The food was well presented and just as tasty. Accommodating with the request of being able to split the bill. Fantastic experience. Highly recommend. If you have Qantas Frequent Flyer you can also claim points here."

"We had a family dinner last night at this establishment. The restaurant ambiance was cozy; pleasant and comfortable. We ordered the 3 course meal set menu for 4 people consisting of an entree garlic bread, duck sausage roll, prawn roll & beef tacos. Mains were snapper, steak, lamp chops & wagyu rump, dessert were caramelised cheesecake & chocolate s’more. We’re rating the food 8. While the rest of the food were okay, the snapper was a little bit bland too much on mozzarella wrappers, and I couldn’t hardly taste the fish. I did enjoy the potatoes & greens though. My son’s GF steak was a bit dry & didn’t look appetising on the plate, but she enjoyed the side salad. The servers looked tired & grumpy & they seemed always in a hurry to take our orders, drop the cutleries or water on our table. Also, didn’t see anyone of the ladies smiling. Until a younger looking man delivered some of our orders with a big smile on his face looking so happy to feed us. We were elated & felt like we were seated on a business class. He made us feel important. After thanking him we found out that Noor was the new Manager of this restaurant. While he provided us with a great service including making us a special cocktail on the night, we hope he can share his enthusiasm, attentiveness & positive customer service to his staff. Thanks Noor for your amazing customer service & friendly smile. Overall we rated this place 8/10 and 4 stars. Our party of 4 spent over $400 including drinks. Yes, we’re happy to recommend this place, but it’s quite pricey."

"Great place to enjoy a well cooked steak. The garlic bread is like no other, especially with the grated parmesan on top. But the chocolate s'more dessert was so good. The servers were friendly and attentive."

"The ambiance was lovely, very comfortable and cosy and is absolutely worth a visit in that regard because the interiors are beautiful. We came here for the steak and they were great but not the best as it was less juicy and flavourful than expected. Definitely get sauce to go with the steak. I also think it’ll be great if the staff were more attentive in offering for a water glass refill and the restaurant wasn’t particularly packed that night."

"Truly a hidden gem. A pleasant change from the rambunctious bustle of Church Street with it's upscale ambience and appeal. We chose the set menu option and did not regret it. The dishes were well balanced and highly enjoyable. The chicken and pork belly skewers were soft, delicious, full of flavour and very delicious. It was our first time having a duck sausage roll and it did not disappoint. The cheesecake and the triple layered "chocolate s'more" brownie was the perfect dessert to finish off our meal. A compliment and big thanks to Lloyd for his energetic and wonderful customer service. We will be recommending and returning to Hunter & Barrel Parramatta."
