QUAY
ABOUT
Quay is one of the country’s most awarded restaurants with celebrated chef, Peter Gilmore, at the helm.
The restaurant is an organic space reflective of Peter Gilmore’s nature inspired cuisine. Quay’s interplay of textures and colour bring new life and a vibrance that embraces the restaurant’s place in the dress circle of Sydney Harbour. An ode to the Australian landscape, from the vast ocean floor, to the cracked bark of a paperbark tree, every detail from the ground up was thoughtfully considered.
The 2018 reinvention of Quay saw a major redesign and took the dining room, kitchen and guest experience to the next level, giving Fink and Peter Gilmore an opportunity to take a new look at fine dining. The restaurant reopened to critical acclaim taking out a near perfect score of 19/20 in the Australian Good Food Guide. In 2022, Quay continues to lead Australia’s fine dining culture, with acknowledgements from Good Food, Gourmet Traveller, and The Australian of Quay’s reputation.
The new era for Quay has given the restaurant an opportunity to fulfil even greater aspirations in delivering a personal and immersive dining experience.

QUAY
THE MENU
Quay is a progression of rare and beautiful ingredients where texture, flavour and harmony is paramount.
Continually inspired by nature, the creative process for chef Peter Gilmore begins in working closely with the farmers, fishermen, producers and artisans who cultivate bespoke produce exclusively for Quay. For each dish, the growth of every element and the selection of every ceramic piece is carefully considered and crafted for its role in the dining experience.
The new incarnation of Quay has brought a welcome change; a chance to create a more personal, interactive passage for diners through Peter Gilmore’s culinary evolution.
