BLAQ Restaurant & Bar

100 guests. Everything served on the night was not just coeliac safe but able to be easily amended for all other dietaries. Across our guests we had vegans, lactose intolerance, soy intolerance, anaphylaxis to shellfish - you name it. Everyone who required an amendment got one or an alternative. Executive chef, Mate, executed fried chicken, salt and pepper squid, pastry, GF soy sauce, all the things that make a little coeliac happy. When we asked them to create the gluten free cake which they’d once had as a special menu item, it was no hassle. I have loved Blaq and Kyah for a long time now, dining there several times in the lead up to our wedding. Oh and… so is the drinks list! The wine on the night was a huge hit with our guests, which of course we knew it would be because we’d picked them ourselves based on our tasting at the restaurant. We walk away with fond memories of our entire wedding planning journey at the assistance of Sam, and in particular Mate and bar manager Jess. BLAQ at Kyah will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

We had a wonderful experience at restaurant Blaq as well as the Kyah Hotel. We highly recommend staying at the Kyah hotel if you are in Blackheath. The food, wine as well as the cocktails were all fantastic. I can definitely recommend the pink paloma, burrata fennel salad, the prawns and the lamb. And the pear frangipane tart was also really good. The staff was very friendly and very accommodating with food restrictions and allergens. They even brought some amazing glutenfree bread which was delicious! The restaurant itself had a nice relaxed atmosphere.
