North Ryde, Sydney
Bondi Beach - Relaxing, Vibrant and Fun! Bondi Pizza brings these qualities of an iconic Australia landmark to the Macquarie Centre. With an impressive surf inspired décor, mouth-watering range of delicious pizzas and energetic friendly staff there can be no better words to describe the experience of dining at Bondi Pizza.Despite the restaurant only being filled at half capacity (as can be expected on a Tuesday night), we could still feel the Bondi buzz.
We arrived to surf movies and the famous Wipe Out music greeting us, an impressive Bondi Pizza themed long board planted on the wall.
A wide range of diners were present ranging from birthday parties to young families to couples enjoying Bondi Pizza’s signature thin pressed pizzas. After ordering our first round of Coronas and deliberating extensively over which starters to share (there are 22 choices!), we decided on the Arancini Balls and the Chargrilled Chorizo.
We had arrived with high expectations and an appetite to match.
So it wasn't surprising at all that we tucked straight into the chargrilled Chorizo.
These were so good that we devoured them in a few minutes!
The flat bread and side of chilli mayo sat very nicely with the Chorizo, which was cooked perfectly.
This was a great start to our meal and certainly lived up to our high expectations.
The Arancini Balls were next and they were great too.
They had a very big cheesy hit that didn't lack flavour.
It also had the kind of crispy outer layer you'd expect in a good arancini too.
It was a great dish and a nice contrast to the textures of the chorizo.
The side serving of garlic aioli was very tasty too.
Still with some room in our ample bellies, we ordered another round of beers and waited eagerly for our signature Bondi Pizzas, the Grilled Chicken Tandoori and the Marinated Chargrilled Lamb!
The Marinated Lamb lived up to all that was promised and then some…tender marinated lamb backstrap fillet, feta, balsamic onions, roma tomatoes, rocket, sweet potato crisps with creamy Caesar sauce! The lamb was cooked to perfection, the Caesar sauce blending the flavours together very nicely.We cannot recommend this pizza enough! It is a must have for all Bondi Pizza diners.At this stage we were feeling very satisfied with our meal, but still had one last pizza to polish off for the night.
Chicken Tandoori is one of our favourite pizzas and we were intrigued to discover if Bondi Pizzas’ version stacked up to the very impressive Marinated Lamb…it turned out to be an impressive pizza indeed - but our favourite was the lamb by a nose due to its combinations! The yogurt sauce was delicious and the chicken was of good quality.
Bondi Pizza has grown for a reason. They have good variety and the food tastes great as well. It's a relaxing, vibrant and fun dining experience.
The Knights, who now review for Sir and Mlady Dine Out, dined as gusts of Bondi Pizza. Special thanks to Courtney from Bondi Pizza HQ for this kind invitation.
