"In 2010, a wave of acclaimed young chefs reimagined what a cooking career could be. Names-to-watch like Dan Hong (Ms. G’s), Claire Van Vuuren (Bloodwood), and Mitch Orr (Duke Bistro) proved you could play loud hip-hop, drizzle Kewpie mayo, or serve tater tots and still score a good restaurant review. At Kiln, which opened in October 2022 with quietly entrancing 18th-floor views, Orr slings snacks on Jatz crackers (a signature flex from his days at Acme). But he also puts in a lot of hidden work. For his tartlets, for example, golden beets are roasted in thyme, garlic, and vinegar, and left on Kiln’s showpiece grill to develop a smoke-kissed chew. Then they’re chopped and loaded in pastry shells with chives, verjus, and goat’s curd for maximum payoff. It’s just one way Kiln smartly uses its hearth, as wood and smoke light up menus across Sydney." - Lee Tran Lam

I really enjoyed this fine dining joint. It’s quite an interesting vibe and I liked the atmosphere in the area. The food there was spectacular. I highly recommend their potato dish and pork neck. Both of which are quite contrasting but very good for what they are. We opted for the entree options to share some dishes and it was a great choice if you want to try out many dishes. Unfortunately for us the mains came out quite late. And we had been waiting for more than half an hour. I think we saw others receiving their orders ahead of us when they ordered late but I imagine it’s due to complexity of the dish. The prices are reasonable for a fine dining restaurant and the ambience is worth visiting. They also have a summer menu so worth visiting during then

This was my first time dining at Klin, and I was truly impressed. The atmosphere was lovely — the restaurant is beautifully designed with a stunning view of the city skyline. You can clearly see the city buildings, which creates a really special vibe.What impressed me the most, though, was the service. One of the female staff members with long black hair (I unfortunately didn’t get her name) was absolutely amazing. She recommended food and drinks so confidently and knowledgeably. The food itself was delicious and suited our taste perfectly.It was actually my birthday dinner, and we ordered two desserts to share. To our surprise, the same staff member brought out a small cake with a candle on it — such a sweet and thoughtful gesture that made the night even more special.Overall, everything was perfect — from the view and the food to the outstanding service. Highly recommended!

An all-round amazing experience at Kiln during their "A Night at Kiln" special event, which featured the usual $110 set menu with a couple of small changes. It's difficult to pick a favourite dish when everything was so good! From the sourdough bread all the way through to the fennel cake dessert, we were blown away by the native flavours and innovation on display. Serving sizes were generous, I would suggest a few snacks / small plates followed by a main to share. The drinks menu is extensive and offers something for everyone, I was particularly impressed by the number of non-alcoholic options available. Service was top notch, attentive without being overbearing and very friendly. We felt very welcome and looked after throughout the night. The team at Kiln have put together a great experience which offers fantastic value for money. I would recommend Kiln to locals and visitors alike, I will certainly be back!

It was a great dining experience at Kiln. We were seated in the corner window seat, but unfortunately, there was a leak from the roof, so the couch was soaked. The staff were quick to move us and very apologetic, offering complimentary oysters with our bubbly. I didnt catch the gentlemans name but he was really helpful with suggesting wine pairings with our set meal, too. We were served by Ash. She was warm, welcoming, and fun, giving us her thoughts on the dishes and even giving us tips for the photo she took us. I have to say, it's one of the most beautiful photos someone has taken of us in the 2 years we've been dating! Besides the phenomenal service, the food was a delight. I enjoyed everything that was part of the set menu, but could not stomach the dessert because i was so so full! As delicious as the mango coconut sticky rice with pandan oil was, it was too rich to end the set menu for me. I think having it as part of the a la carte menu would be better, and a dessert with less rich, more tart or bitter notes for the set menu ending would tie it all together nicely.

Funky vibe. Downstairs has a great night for before or after. Restaurant is on level 19 so has great views. Being on the rooftop makes the open flame cooking even more impressive given the open kitchen. Food is smart, tasty and visually stunning. Plus a few more complex dishes if you want to try something a little different. As you would expect, wait staff were extremely attentive, friendly and knowledgeable

Absolutely amazing! The atmosphere and design of the restaurant is very chic and the DJ was playing some really vibey music. Super friendly and engaging waiters. The food is delicious, fresh and interesting. The tomato and strawberry salad + crispy rice, mango and pandan dessert was to die for.

Mango pandan crispy rice is genius and delicious 🫶 Shout out to our waiter Sam who was so attentive all evening! 🫶 The vibe and music was so good my husband was jamming out to it all dinner 🤣

Recommended by our daughter to try Kiln knowing one of the chefs will be leaving and confirmed by the waitress that the pastry chef Andy Bowdy will be leaving soon. Food was amazing 🤩 , great atmosphere, felt cosy yet relaxed dining there. We were served by a very friendly, cheerful , always with a big smile waitress that made the whole dining experience more enjoyable and memorable. Thank you ☺️ Yuzushu Spritz was a little spicy to drink so I would prefer more yuzu flavour without that spice hit. Our favourite ? Hard to pick cause we think everything that we ordered were pretty good 👍 We do hope this dessert could stay in the menu - crispy coconut rice , mango makrut sorbet with pandan oil - absolutely to die for . 😃😃😃
