About the restaurant
Poetica is a modern bar and grill in the heart of North Sydney, built around the theatre of fire, wood and charcoal cooking. The light-filled 120-seat dining room features floor-to-ceiling windows, a 15-metre open kitchen, 700-bottle wine wall and four leafy terraces that blur indoors and out. Expect refined yet relaxed plates of wood‑ and coal‑grilled meat and seafood, seasonal sides and inventive starters, alongside an impressive mostly-Australian wine list. From client lunches to steamy date nights or golden-hour drinks, Poetica delivers warmth, flair and unforgettable bites.
