Dove and Olive Hotel reviews

4 Star Review by Ferdinand

Yesterday I was here around 12.30, and this Smoked Beef Ribs on food special just cant be ignored. When the food came, first thing I noticed was .. oh how do I eat this whiteout being messy? Beef Ribs was plated in kinda entree/small sharing plate. Its really hard to eat without being messy on the table. In my opinion, Chef could use better plate for presentation. Food was flavour some, but since chips was tucked underneath the beef ribs it self, and soaked with some braising sauce, it was all soggy. Overall it was great, service was good enough and place was clean. However If you are UFC fans, this place is not showing pay preview of UFC.

One of the better places in Sydney for a Sunday Roast. The vegetables and Yorkshire pudding and gravy were tasty. The beef was nice but the lamb lacked flavour. Cost $26 and portions were generous (loved the extra gravy on the side as well). Pub is a little dingey and could do with some TLC. Service was ok.

4 Star Review by Fi Shep

We had a sensational Sunday lunch enjoying the winter sun outside. The pub was very busy and there were alot of places to sit inside though it was noisy. The roast of the day was so large we easily could have shared the plate and as it was we definitely didnt need dinner that night! Enjoyed a couple of middies with our meal suggested by the bar staff. Everyone was super friendly and obliging. Will definitely return for a meal!

5 Star Review by Amelia Zakkas

One of the best Sunday roasts we've had in Sydney... huge portions, tons of very tasty gravy. Good veggies. The Yorkshire pudding wasn't very good but given how good the rest of the meal was, we didn't mind. Great value for money!!
