Bobbys Cronulla

Had a lovely experience at Bobby's today for a last minute group lunch. The young staff were super attentive, friendly and remained in high spirits while working on a busy public holiday. The young, female waitress (dark brown hair in a short ponytail) should be recognised for her lovely attitude towards my gluten free request. She identified all the gluten free dishes correctly and made it no issue at all to substitute the few non-gluten free items on the set menu. Staff that have taken the time to learn about dietary requirements, or restaurants who teach their staff this information, are so important and make experiences for us unlucky non-gluten-eating people far superior. The food was fabulous - the kingfish in particular was the best I've ever had. I had put off ever going to Bobby's after hearing some not so fabulous food reviews when they had first opened - many expressing that they may just need some time to settle in and find their footing. They have definitely done so and are well worth the visit now. Food and customer service was phenomenal. Props to the lovely young staff members working there on ANZAC Day, I hope their good efforts can be recognised as they've definitely got me coming back again!

We saw review in the SMH which featured Bobby’s as one of the best waterfront restaurants in Sydney, so we booked for a late lunch on Sunday. The food was delicious; the tagliatelle with prawns and cuttlefish - the proportion of seafood was really generous; the Barra burger was amazing and the gluten free bread served with stratiacelli with honey and hazelnuts was simply the best gf bread I have ever had. There wasn’t anything we had to eat that wasn’t delicious and the cocktails were sublime. The service was perfect; friendly and efficient. And the setting, looking over rock pools and the ocean could not have been better. Truly memorable and very very highly recommended

Bobby's in Cronulla is a great choice for a summer evening dinner, particularly for those with dietary requirements. The restaurant was accommodating, effortlessly adapting dishes to be gluten-free. Standout dishes included the stracciatella with focaccia, the prawn roll, and the frozen spicy mango margarita, each showcasing thoughtful presentation. However, while the dishes were visually appealing, some lacked depth in flavour. The grilled octopus, for example, was well-cooked—tender without being chewy—but fell short of being memorable due to its muted taste. I would recommend skipping the set menu in favour of selecting à la carte options. Our table enjoyed an array of dishes, including Cantabrian anchovies on toast, wagyu beef carpaccio, kingfish ceviche, fried zucchini flowers, zucchini rigatoni, ragu mafalde, shoestring fries, and charred broccolini. Overall, the meal represented excellent value for money. For under $400, four of us indulged in a variety of dishes accompanied by seven cocktails.
