| The Summit Restaurant has been a landmark in Sydney for over 40 years and there are good reasons for its enduring appeal. There is of course the quality of the food, without which there can be no restaurant, but above all there is the location and design. As the name suggests, the Summit is high off the ground, 47 floors to be precise, located in the upper reaches of Australia Square, designed by renowned architect Harry Seidler. The Summit Restaurant combines great food with incredible views to present a unique and unforgettable Sydney dining experience. |
| Sydney harbour has of course some other world class architectural marvels, most notably Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge. Situated 165 metres above the harbour, Summit Restaurant certainly offers remarkable all round views and, best of all, they come to you. Summit is a revolving restaurant, turning at a rate of one metre per minute, ensuring breathtaking vistas of the bridge, the opera house, the harbour, Olympic park and the Blue Mountains, and all while you dine in stylish surrounds. It is said that on a clear day views can stretch as far as 80km and the changing light throughout the day makes each visit unique. |

| The Summit Restaurant has had a recent transformation under the auspices of noted chef and restaurateur Michael Moore. The original 60s style elements are reinstated through a whole new retro feel incorporating pink lamps and Campari bottles, and brought right up to date for a contemporary world. With 20 years experience gained in the finest restaurants of the Australia and Europe, Moore breathes new life into both the restaurant and the menus, which are indelibly stamped with modern Australian cuisine with accents and flourishes that bring out the best in a selection of core dishes. |
| Mouth watering culinary specialities served in the restaurant include pork belly, cooked twice, with apple balsamic sauce and glass crackling. Another favourite is the mushroom croustada, with fontina and reggiano cheese, accompanied with garlic creamed spinach and porcini mushroom glaze. The very best in local produce is employed in the cuisine, from the finest Australian beef to cheeses and wines. Fresh local seafood also takes centre stage in many dishes such as the cold smoked petunia ocean trout. In a restaurant in which the visual splendours are obvious, presentation of the food forms as much a part of the experience as the taste. |
| In addition to renowned boutique wine labels from Australia, the restaurant has an impressive list of international wines from New Zealand and Europe to complement any meal. Choose from an excellent range of white, red, sparkling and dessert wines. |
| As the sun sets over Sydney Harbour the Summit Restaurant bar offers the best place to enjoy a cocktail. The award winning Orbit Bar has a professional team of cocktail mixers who create the best cocktails, mocktails and martinis in the city. A stylish environment certainly demands a stylish drink and to complement all the drinks and cocktails available, the Orbit Bar offers a superb tapas menu and other delights to make any social evening go with a swing. Lounge music accompanies late night dining with an extended tapas and supper menu available from 9.00pm from Thursday to Sunday. |
| Orbit also provides the perfect venue for any private function, product launch or celebration for up to 180 guests. Superb set event menus can be provided. For highly exclusive events, space can be arranged for up to 375 guests. Contact the Summit Restaurant for further details. |
| Some restaurants come with a view, a stylish ambience, or great food, but few in the world have combined all in such a winning formula as the Summit Restaurant Sydney. |
