    My wife and I were celebrating our 5th wedding anniversary. We were staying at the Jamison Hotel and ate dinner at the Charr Restaurant and were treated with the absolute best service. They really made an effort to give us a special night. Our reservation for the Summit restaurant was for 8:30 Friday; I thought that would be late enough to just order desert and enjoy the view. We were seated at a very nice table but after ordering, the staff refused to serve us. He said that we needed to Order $85.00 worth of food; obviously he needs to brush up on his math skills. We ordered 2 chocolate souffls ($50.00)2 coffees ($12.00) 2 Penfolds Grandfather Ports ($50.00) totalling $112.00 and who knows what else we might have ordered after that, plus a generous tip. I have to say, that was the most rude and disgusting behaviour form a staff that I have ever seen. We left the restaurant without eating and will never go back.

    By far one of Sydneys best restaurants with a view. I was here for an event so I wasnt able to eat a meal but If the canapes are anything to go by I would say It would be fantastic. Staff were extremely friendly.

    I went here for dinner with a girlfriend. We initially planned on a drink and snacks at Orbit Bar but thought we might like to grab a table at Summit. It was a great decision. Being a week night and close to Christmas, we thought a table might not be possible but the staff were brilliantly accommodating and gave us a spot right near a window.

    It would be possible that a restaurant in this location would rest on its view and not strive to deliver a fabulous dining experience. This is certainly not the case, the entire evening was a great experience. The food was delicious. Get in and try both the chocolate and the berry souffles before they take them off the menu!

    The service was lovely and friendly. Exactly as finefoods said, take your overseas visitors here, they'll love you for it. Even if you're from Sydney origionally, you'll be reminded why this is one of the prettiest cities in the world.

    Highly recommended.

    Swirl around up high on the new tapas tier at Summit Restaurant. Big black comfy cushions and sleek banquettes brings new Friday night fun to the revolving restaurant. The best part? Posh presentation. When a long, skinny tray of tasty morsels like crab claws, perfect kingfish ceviche with watermelon, parsnip and lavender soup served in a shot glass, and chorizo and beans with quail egg appears, you just feel Friday-ish. A new private dinner room with burnished silver alls is open for VIP parties if you’ve got the cash to splash.

    A long-standing revolving Sydney restaurant relies too much on spin.

    Sometimes it's the little things that turn eating out into culinary water torture. It might start with the withered flowers on the red gladioli greeting you as the lift doors open. Drip. After a 25-minute wait (thanks for the bread and water, though) the waiter drops by and asks, "Are you ready to order?" Drip. Perhaps, if you could tell us a little about the menu first, including the fish of the day? Drip. And don't ask me how I want my 18-hour slow-roasted beef cooked. Drip. Forty minutes after arriving, the wine order is taken. Drip. The wine turns up halfway through entrees. Drip. And we shouldn't have to ask three times just to get our water glasses refilled. Drip. Drip. Drip. Summit turns 39 this month. That's a ripe old age in an ephemeral industry, but then dining 165 metres above sea level on the world's biggest lazy Susan (the full spin takes 105 minutes) has always been the trump card. After almost three years as restaurateur under Accor, chef Michael Moore takes...

    Summit not only offers stunning views of Sydney, but also assured, sometimes inspired, modern Australian food.

    A lifetime of dining out has taught me that restaurants that revolve (or float, for that matter) invariably come up short when it comes to one crucial ingredient - the food. Not so at Summit, on the 47th floor of Australia Square, which offers not only stunning views of Sydney, but also assured, sometimes inspired, modern Australian food from the kitchen of chef Michael Moore (not that Michael Moore, another one). Moore's recently taken control of Summit, putting his money where his whisk is and buying it lock, stock and wine cellar from the Accor group. It's a brave move; but Moore has the experience to pull it off, having worked at Sir Terence Conran's Bluebird in London as well as at Wildfire, Bennelong and Prunier's. On the evidence of a recent rip-snorting '80s-style long lunch, and an intimate dinner for two on Tuesday night, Moore has the good ship Summit on a safe course. The food is visually appealing without being fussy, the service a Sydney rarity, slick and ...
