Palings Kitchen And - Castle Hill

This is a fantastic spot for a midweek lunch. I ordered the steak, and it was cooked to perfection. There’s a great selection of beers and cocktails, making it an excellent place to continue the evening.

This is a great spot in Sydney for a lunchtime break in the heart of the city. They offer a diverse selection of cuisines. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is inviting, and the service is friendly.

We were advised when ordering that dishes might arrive at different times since the menus are prepared by two separate kitchens, which is something to keep in mind, especially if you're with a large group or short on time. I ordered the pan-fried gnocchi with pumpkin, onion puree, and goat cheese, and the flavor combination was delightful. I typically don’t eat much onion, but the puree added an extra depth of flavor to the dish. The portion size was quite generous as well. I enjoyed my meal and noticed several other menu items that I would like to try, so I will definitely be returning.

Great balance of indoor/outdoor seating in a relaxed space, perfect for business lunches. The menu is huge and really does have something for everyone.

This is located on level 1 at The Ivy on George Street. It shares the dining space with Sunee's Thai Canteen as well as you can select from either menu when eating here. It is a very open space and lots of light pouring in. Service isn't too bad but they were a bit distracted (chatting to each other) when we were trying to flag them down to pay the bill. Apart from that they were quite friendly. <br/ <br/ We had the Braised Lamb Shank, Pan Roasted Corn Fed Chicken Supreme, and Pan Roasted Barramundi Fillet. The lamb was coming off the bone easily and had a nice topping of crispy sweet potato accompanied by creamy mash. The chicken was tender and not dry at all. It came with a lovely jus. The fish was well cooked and certainly the prettiest looking of the all the plates as it was sitting on a bed of mushy peas. <br/ <br/ Overall not bad here at all but service could be sped up a bit and slightly more attentive.
