The Hideaway

Tucked into Bondi Junction in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs, The Hideaway brings a New York-inspired underground mood to the coast. It's an oasis from the daily rush, where the lights dim, the tempo eases, and indulgence takes centre stage.

To begin, refinement meets comfort. Sliced Brickfields rye and caraway sourdough arrives warm alongside cultured butter, while a Sydney rock oyster with classic mignonette sets a briny, sparkling tone.

For the main event, potato gnocchi "cacio e pepe" leans into rich pecorino romano and pepper. Grills also take pride of place, from Wagyu picanha steak "tagliata" to a 350g MB5 grain-fed sirloin, alongside a dry-aged Black Onyx rib eye carved to share.

Fresh sides nod to season and substance, like baby peas and speck with eschalot, before a dark chocolate Basque cheesecake and a nostalgic banana split close the curtain.

Come for the lively evening hum, especially from Thursday to Saturday, when live music lifts the room. Slip in, settle down, and let the night hide you away.
