Rookie Eatery

Amazing food loved everything especially the dumplings.

What a lovely time we had at Rookies, we always get the best service, food is delicious and most importantly extremely consistent. We always enjoy coming to Rookies and will definitely be back.

It is always a treat and never disappointing at Rookie Eatery. The decor, the ambience, the service and of course the food are all wonderful. It is without doubt the best restaurant in the Illawarra. We always choose the Feed Me 2 option which is six courses for $69 per person. The food is so light and fresh it is easy to eat the beautifully presented six courses and still feel comfortable. The Lychee Mojito is a delicious way to start the meal and we always find a new favourite on their wine list.

Always an awesome experience, the food gets better each time

Always great service and food

We had such an amazing time at Rookies. Everything was perfect, the services, food and experience was great. Would recommend and come back for sure.

Amazing food, always a great treat to go to Rookie

Best food service / will be back

Great atmosphere and even better food. Staff are brilliant and always accommodating to dietary restriction requests. Beautiful night of friends, food and wine.

Thoroughly enjoyed the meal as well as the decor and vibe of the restaurant. It was a lovely atmosphere with a lot of the restaurant filled. Starters and small plates were definitely the highlight although everything was delicious

Rookie is the perfect setting for a relaxed and enjoyable dining experience. Casual yet elegant styling shines through the physical restaurant stylings as well as the delicious food. We enjoyed the set menu 2 which was a great amount of food (enough to leave room for a mouth watering dessert to share! Seriously my mouth started watering just thinking about it!)
Great wine list, awesome service - 11/10!!

Really lovely night for our wedding anniversary. Thanks guys!!

Definitely a new experience.. I loved the banquet style so I can try all the different dishes

Amazing food. We had 5 course set menu and desert . Would highly recommend Rookie for a special experience.

Amazing experience. Not only was the food superb, but the service was also outstanding. For those who love fine dining, this restaurant is a must. All that and the First Table dining experience, what more can I say.

Amazing food and great service, will definitely be coming here again

Our experience at Rookie was amazing, we had the Feed Me tasting plate and it didnt disappoint. We loved it that much that we had to try the dessert too! Overall a great experience.

Rookie was once again an amazing experience! Their posts in Facebook had been taunting us all week so that we were salivating at the mere thought of ‘rookie’ - it did not disappoint! 10 out of 10 for everything and those dumplings were to die for!

Excellent food and service! Definitely will be back.

The food and service were both impeccable. We ordered the ‘feed me’ menu which converted people who didn’t eat seafood into fish lovers! The service was professional yet relaxed and friendly. Would definitely go back again!

The food was amazing! The service impeccable! Such an awesome restaurant!

Excellent food, the quality and presentation is at the upper end of the scale.
The service is also outstanding. Informative, engaging and pleasant. Definitely one to revisit.

Wonderful food; fast, friendly and attentive service; lovely ambience, overall a great experience :)

Amazing food and service can’t wait to go back!,,

The waitress was great... she suggested we try the "feed me" menu and they didn't mind making a separate menu for the vegetarian in our group which was lovely. Food was amazing. Wonderful night out

Spectacular flavours and the proteins were done so well! We will absolutely be back :)
