Firedoor Restaurant Surry Hills Reviews from The Last Year
Ignore the Noise - Firedoor is Worth the Hype
Fine dining experiences are truly just not for everyone, and that’s okay. But the feedback in these reviews is startlingly misplaced. Criticizing the staff at a MICHELIN STAR restaurant for replacing cutlery and *explaining* the content of the carefully curated dishes? That seems so silly; this is a standard practice for restaurants that care deeply about their food and the customer experience. Not enough food after 5-7 courses? You *must* be kidding. Complaints about a prefixed menu? No one is trying to hide this. A simple search on Firedoor’s website explains the dining style. Same can be said for the price complaints, this is all available openly online. No one is being hoodwinked. Personally, by the time I left I felt like I had robbed a bank! I was coming to Sydney from NYC and had been lucky enough to get a reservation. After reading these reviews I was beginning to reset my expectations. Maybe I had overhyped what this might be like.. Simply put, the experience of dining at Firedoor was exquisite. In my opinion, the critiques are entirely misleading and missing the beauty of this restaurant. There is no acknowledgement or appreciation for how the creation of these dishes is entirely remarkable. The difficulty level in perfecting the menu can’t be overstated. The technique required to achieve what the team has done at Firedoor is spectacular. Elevating basic ingredients like cabbage and kimchi. A cod dish that had the crispiest skin with a mouth watering, moist interior. Serving lamb that could have been cut with a butter knife. Cooking a wagu steak that perfectly, giving it a lovely char on the outside with a perfectly even pink center. Roasting plums, infusing them with a smokey undertone that makes an ice cream dish pop. All. Done. On. Open. Flame. It’s art. It was actually art. You can get a traditional culinary experience damn near anywhere. Some people that commented here need to stick to ordering off QR codes so the rest of us can enjoy something singularly unique. The staff was impeccable. The food a delight. The open kitchen mesmerizing. 5-stars today, tomorrow, and every day.
Slightly underwhelmed
I am really disappointed to say that our 3 month wait was not worth it. I didn’t like the fact that you have no choice but the “degustation menu’” which is a minimum of $195 ea. The servings , while tasty were very small- and I too left the restaurant hungry- and in a hurry as the emphasis from the team seemed to be the requirement for us to be rushed out in our allotted time. Also the cutlery and plates are constantly updated, and each course comes with a detailed explanation which had the impact of interrupting your conversation regularly…it didn’t feel like a special evening or place despite the rave (?) reviews
Unique experience!
My daughter's restaurant choice for her birthday and she was thrilled with the experience. It is a meat lovers delight and the very best quality presented. Our family of 4 were truly satisfied with the quality of produce and food preparation. Although I am not overly keen on red meat, the quality as expected was of a high standard. Very pleasing that some indigenous ingredients like paper bark were used. Service were superior and ambiance with attention to detail commendable (loved the cutlery and timber). Very happy to recommend for a special occasion as this is not your average priced eatery.
The Emperors Clothes
The experience was very disappointing after waiting so long to get a booking. I asked to upgrade from the pork to wagyu steak and was charged $35 a head for 3 people. The steak portion was the size of a 50cent piece and whilst it had a nice flavour we felt completely ripped off . We had 5 courses and all 3 of us are experienced diners and normally this is more than enough food. Unfortunately we were all hungry when we left so had to stop for a sandwich at 7/11 on the way home. Save your money and go to a restaurant that actually feeds you !!!
Sophisticated menu and presentation.
More waiters than guests. Big open grill in eating area. Five or six course set menu and optional wine pairing Quite expensive. Food a bit exotic for my taste but really first class. Apparently booked 4 months in advance. We got a last minute cancellation-is this standard? Some street parking and no outdoor seating
Everything we had was amazing, and service was exceptional!
Everything we had was amazing, and service was exceptional! If we come back to Sydney, I'm definitely coming here again.
A world class meal.
Outstanding, wonderful adventure in fine dining. Seated at the bar/counter overlooking the kitchen and able to interact with all the players. Lennox Hastie is a consummate professional, yet very approachable and engaging. We had the 6 course menu with wine pairing and each course was wonderful. The food and wine pairings were spot on and featured much of Australia's finest food and drink in a complementary manner. The restaurant was busy, yet the staff worked well together and the patrons were given full attention for their needs. At the end of the seating people were able to pose for photos with Lennox and have short conversations concerning their experience. This was a memorable experience and the food was center stage.
Firedoor? More like TerriBle
Firedoor, touted as a culinary destination in Sydney, left much to be desired during my recent visit. With a Valentine's set menu priced at a staggering 265 AUD, accompanied by an additional 220 AUD for a half portion of their signature 325-day dry-aged Rangers Valley rib, one would expect nothing short of perfection. However, the reality fell far short of expectations. The evening commenced with a promising start with the Wagyu skewer, enhanced by green plum, but the disappointment ensued as it arrived cold, a grave oversight in a restaurant of this caliber. Cold Skewer, what a “great duo”! The first course, featuring kangaroo with blood plum slices and macadamia sauce, offered a glimmer of hope amidst the disappointment. The flavors were harmonious, with the kangaroo proving to be the highlight of the five-course set. Regrettably, subsequent courses failed to maintain the momentum. The mussels, a lackluster choice for a menu of this price point, failed to impress, leaving diners questioning their inclusion in such a premium offering. The barramundi with grilled lettuce and currants, purportedly the main event, suffered from a lackluster execution. While the grilled vegetables offered a semblance of redemption, the fish itself was marred by an abundance of tendons, detracting from the overall dining experience. The crispy skin, medium rare lamb with pepper and onion, provided a fleeting reprieve with its well-executed preparation, showcasing the chef's skill in handling the delicate flavors of the lamb. However, any semblance of enjoyment was swiftly overshadowed by the ill-fated addition of the 325-day dry-aged Rangers Valley rib. Despite its extravagant price tag, the beef was disappointingly tough and full of tendons, akin to chewing on rubber, rendering it nearly inedible. Each bite felt like an endurance test, requiring a Herculean effort to break down the tough, sinewy meat. After mere minutes, the beef fat congealed, leaving diners with a sensation reminiscent of visiting a Sichuan hot pot restaurant, but without the anticipated depth of flavor or culinary satisfaction. The final dessert, featuring fig, failed to salvage the meal after the culinary missteps that preceded it. Its forgettable taste paled in comparison to the lingering disappointment left by the subpar offerings throughout the evening. Firedoor? More like TerriBle.
Unique experience, good wine pairing - don’t eat the insects! (Unless you like insects)
We were SO excited to go to Firedoor as we are AVID BBQ fans (& smoke meat a lot) both at home and dining out and were underwhelmed - especially for the price. The ‘long-aged’ steak that was aged ~350 days was a special experience (fat melts right into the meat) and the mixes of flavors were interesting for the other dishes but frankly not amazing for the price. In addition, my husband received a wine glass (we did the wine pairing) with a very large bug in it with the second course which was pretty gross to say the least. And while we could see the staff trouble shooting - to make sure that not only was the bug removed, but they were ensuring no more bugs would be served to guests - they didn’t give any extra effort to apologize by any staff member, senior staff member or otherwise and we were not offered any discount or free dish or anything else. This seemed really crappy. If you are spending a LOT of money for this special food and experience, this was quite disappointing. We are glad we were able to get in and try this place given our love of “all things cooked on an open flame” but were pretty disappointed in value for $ which was likely also tainted by “large bug incident.” Buyer beware
Well worth a visit
Great room. Interesting food. Well presented. Menu is interesting but could be a little more creative. Quite expensive. The wine list is good. The service is attentive. Difficult to get a booking but worth the effort.
Pretty amazing place
Pretty amazing place.Loved the fire cooked food.Opted for the 5 course menu($185 per head) plus some very special oysters.Look out for the Murray Cod dish which is fantastic..Reasonably priced wine list circa $120-150 a bottle of wine on offer.First rate service by Angelica and her colleagues.Not to be missed.
Superb meal! Unforgettable.
What a superb meal. We actually discussed cancelling our reservation because of poor reviews on Tripadvisor. Thank goodness we didn’t. We experienced a wonderful meal, with outstanding service and excellent wine. The quality of the saucing was outstanding throughout. The glorious tomatoes in the bonito starter are smoked for three and a half hours to bring out the flavour. One of the highlights was an outstanding course of gem lettuce, anchovy and bullhorn pepper. We all agreed it was extraordinary, particularly when accompanied by home baked bread. The trout and pork were perfect. The maitre de has probably spoiled me forever by giving me a taste of the beef, which was undoubtedly the best I have tasted in 73 years, and that from a Scotsman. Staff were knowledgeable, experienced and enthusiastic. The whole meal was a triumph and we could not find a single fault with it. We enjoyed it so much more than a three Michelin star meal in London last week.

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!

Last Reply by 👻 @EnjoyableJelly34 (11/14/2022 12:34 pm)5 Thumbs Up2 Replys, 0 commentsWhose 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!

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??

Best answer by 👻 @HandsomeCollar14 (06/29/2022 11:31 am)4 Thumbs Up6 Answers, 3 commentsWorking 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.

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.
Best answer by 🥷🏻 @ColorfulRod45 (09/18/2021 1:07 am)3 Thumbs Up1 Answer, 2 commentsWhere 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.
Best answer by 🦩 @FluffyStar64 (07/13/2021 9:05 pm)3 Thumbs Up12 Answers, 2 commentsWhat 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.
