Yellow

Top choice in Kings Cross & Potts Point


This sunflower-yellow former artists’ residence is now a top-notch contemporary vegetarian restaurant. Dishes are prepared with real panache; the tasting menus, which can be vegan, take the Sydney meat-free scene to new levels and the service is happily not too formal. A flight of delicious juice combinations is a fine accompaniment. Weekend brunch is also a highlight, as is the wine list.
