Reviews
"Fabulous restaurant with history and traditional old style theme atmosphere. The staff were all very friendly and attentive. The food is super tasty and amazing quality. That truffle egg pasta and T-bone steak is a must try! They also have some of the best wines from Italy on the wine list and there is absolutely something fabulous there for everyone. I can honestly say Buon is a must try. Not really sure how people can give this wonderful restaurant anything less than 5 stars! Our total experience was superb and there is absolutely nothing to complain about. We'll definitely be back....after I lose a few kgs first....the food here is awesome!"
"Went there for a birthday and even though on the booking I have mentioned that the occasion was birthday and if they could make it a bit special. they literally didn’t do anything. We ordered a dessert thinking they’d put a candle on it and bring it (as other restaurants always do) but NOTHING happened which was very disappointing. Food was alright but nothing really special. The best part was my steak which was cooked perfectly and was quite tasty. Overall the price you pay isn’t worth it."
"One of our favourites for special occasions. A rare, hidden gem in Sydney. A great little escape, lost in time. Menu is unique and delicious. Wine menu is extensive, staff are friendly and fun/quirky."
"Certainly no complaints from my side. Buon Ricordo is definitely one of Sydney’s best Italian joints. Absolutely loved the Pork Sausages, Truffle Pasta and School Prawns being my absolute favourite. If you haven’t given this place a go, you should. You won’t be disappointed."
"Absolutely lovely! The menu is so interesting! You want to try one of everything! The flavours delightful! Some unusual things on the menu, like glacier 51 toothfish, I'd never seen or heard of that before. The silky texture, the marriage of the accompanying flavours, delightful! The 1000 layers, Apple dessert…! Just lovely! The textures & flavours, just lovely! The service, good. Friendly, attentive, but in more way too much, not too overbearing. The whole experience was great! It is expensive, but this is a top end restaurant & it was worth it."
