A Chef Secrets - Food NSW

5 /5 Cassandra Farlow: A lovely restaurant exquisite food. Servings are just the right size and so flavourful. A great place to celebrate our 45 th anniversary

2 /5 Jamie S: Food was great but customer service needs improvement. We got served after others who came in after us. I think they got served first because they ordered more and we only ordered two main dishes. They also kept coming back asking us if we want to order drinks when we already declined the first time we were asked. Beware! They only serve sparkling or still water. Either choice, you will have to pay for water.

5 /5 Keith Roberts: What an exceptional dining experience! We have enjoyed many great restaurants in many counties, “A Chef Secrets” is right up there among the best. I can confidently rate it 5-stars for food quality, presentation, service, location, view and atmosphere. Mario the owner was always in evidence and happy to advise. His helpful and polite hostess was also ever present, but not intrusive. We were three adult family members on a Saturday evening. We checked out the à la carte menu which looked great but, after due consideration, we decided on the sharing menu – a great call as we got to sample dishes that we would not otherwise have ordered. We chose not to take the wine pairing offered but instead selected a bottle of Soho Peggy Sauvignon Blanc, which we enjoyed. Each dish was a delight, and I could spend time describing each one in detail. However I’ll just mention my all-out winner, a dish which I’d never normally pick on a menu. This was the Short Rib MB 4+ (the MB 4+ describes the degree of marbling) This dish was truly exceptional, melt-in-your-mouth tender and with a phenomenal flavour. While not giving away too many secrets, Mario told us that he uses the best quality beef, cooked sous vide and finished over charcoal. This was simply one of the best beef dishes I’ve tasted anywhere! Phone photos never really do justice to the dishes, but I can’t resist posting one of each of our sharing menu dishes, along with a photo the menu itself, which I’m sure changes from time-to-time. TIP: Decide on a nominated a driver for your trip to A Chef Secret. The last several km of the road to the restaurant is extremely winding and very steep.

5 /5 Clara Chang: A hidden gem that lives up to its name! We got the set menu and my favourite is the duck croquettes — perfectly crisp on the outside and flavorful inside, and served with a sauce that brought everything together beautifully. A special lunch out with food that surprises and impresses

5 /5 Anne-Marie Gogos: We all had a truly wonderful experience at A Chef Secrets in Berowra Waters. The location was stunning, with breathtaking views, a beautiful atmosphere, elegant ambiance, and impeccable service. The menu selection was impressive, and every dish we ordered was exceptional. The staff were all lovely, and the owners were warm and personable. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a top-quality dining experience in a beautiful setting.
