I love the Express Lunch here. Always good value, great view and a way to impress your guests, clients or visitors to Sydney. The food is great, and the service is formal and they do not rush you through the meal.

Matkim offers an exceptional dining experience. It's very clear that the team love what they do and are passionate about creating dishes which are innovative and full of flavour. The food and service are high quality and no detail is left to chance. The recent one hat award is well deserved and is sure to be followed by more in the future. I booked all eight seats for a special occasion and everyone in my party would highly recommend Matkim.
