BISTECCA Sydney Reviews from The Last Year
Bistecca is named one of the best steakhouses around the
Bistecca is named one of the best steakhouses around the world. On exactly which list, I'm unsure because I let my partner decide on dinner during our first night in Sydney. There are a couple of Sydney steakhouses listed, but Bistecca was the only one that didn't have a strict dress code, which was important since we didn't pack any fancy clothes for the trip. The entrance looks like the backdoor of the restaurant. Once you enter, you wait in a bar-like area before being led to the dining room. The overall atmosphere feels like a speakeasy, dark and all. The waitress recommended about two sides per person and suggested sharing the portion size of the steak between the two of us. We honestly could've done with one side each; we ended up barely finishing 3 out of the 4 sides. I honestly don't know if locals come here for steak because, in some ways, this place seems touristy. But overall, it's good. Also random, but your cell phone gets locked up throughout the dining experiences, so that is why you won't see many photos uploaded. I couldn't tell time since I didn't have a watch on.
7+ Star !
We have tried many 5 star steakhouses here and overseas. We both thought the steak at Bistecca is the best we have eaten. The whole experience is wonderful. You could believe you have stepped into a Florentine or New York restaurant. The staff are truly professional, surrounds are lovely and most importantly the food and wine a delight. The buratta and the pecorino starters were divine. We added the roast potatoes (a must) and the broccolini to the steak and they were delicious. The steak however was the star of the show ! If you can get in (I diarised when bookings opened for our weekend) this is a must do at least once in your life.
Undercooked
You need to like your steak blue or rare, despite saying they make it medium rare, the steak was very undercooked in parts. The sides were disappointing compared to the cut of meat and did not pair well. The room was also very dimly lit and had too much smoke from the open grill next to the tables, this gave me a headache and sore eyes. For those with a disability, there is no accessible entrance for those who cannot handle stairs well, it would be helpful if this was listed on the website. The staff were friendly but the food was highly disappointing.
Nestled discreetly in Sydney, Bistecca promises a culinary
Nestled discreetly in Sydney, Bistecca promises a culinary adventure unlike any other. Their masterfully prepared steaks boast unrivaled flavor and tenderness. However, the service occasionally falls short of expectations despite the attentive staff. The lounge is classy with a great bar. The dining room is cozy and inviting. The food is delicious and the ambiance is lovely - truly a great dining experience. What this place doesn't need is fluff - the secret entrance is such a novelty and gets old quickly. The phone rules seem slightly over the top and a distraction in itself. It'll definitely be a different dining experience!
Wonderful surprise find
One of the best dining experiences we had in a very long time. We are from CT and touring Australia with a group. After 18 days, we arrived in Sydney. We asked our hotel concierge at the Amora Jamison Sydney hotel for a recommendation of a mid range steak house. He highly recommended Bistecca as the first choice as it was the closest place to the hotel. We had no clue what to expect. Went to Bridge Street and saw a sign that says enter on Dalley street behind the building. We walked on Dalley street and almost missed the entrance as it is well hidden. Turns our the place is designed to be well hidden as a speakeasy. You had to walk down stairs and when you open the door you enter into a beautiful decorated bar, reminding you of a 1920s speakeasy Cafe. The restaurant is amazing. They serve a porterhouse steak by weight. We ordered a 16 oz steak cooked to perfection med rare and a side of their amazing deep fried Brussel sprouts with sour cream and cheese. Als9 had a carafe of outstanding Aussie red wine. One of the best dinners we had at very reasonable cost. So glad we were able to done without a reservation. Staff were incredibly friendly and efficient. You must try this place.
Absolutely fabulous.
The steak was awesome. The starters (octopus and gnocchi) and sides (green beans and cabbage) were excellent. The wine recommendations perfect. The atmosphere was superb. The attention to detail from the subtle waitstaff was excellent. Highly recommend!
Worth the experience, but gross was nothing to blow my mind.
Entrance is through the back laneway for exit and down the stairs where you're welcomed by the bar. You lock your phone away the duration of the meal. Really attentive service and would recommend for the unique dining experience!
A good steakhouse.
A great steakhouse in Sydney. We booked Bistecca after hearing raving reviews of the place. We were not disappointed per say, but also not WOW either. We came as a group of 6 guesgs. The food was good, I'm not gonna lie. The dining room was bustling and gave a good vibe to the place. But I just thing that all the good reviews hyped me up and when I was there; I came in with high expectations and left not so satisfied. No doubt the food was good, but I can't say it was exceptional. No photos either as they have a No phone policy. Good idea actually to ensure we all interact with one another. I honestly, would not come back again, but would definitely recommend to give this place a try at least once.
Terrific experience that went beyond the hype! Highly recommended
Simply fantastic place to eat! The whole experience of having a few beers in the bar area, before going into the private dining room which is through the main dining room, was brilliant. Food is full of special touches, the service excellent & incredibly knowledgeable. The steak was magic as expected & the wine list will satisfy anyone. Highly recommended - I’d love to go back one day!

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
