This was recommended to us by locals and turned out to be a superb choice.
The menu is a a pan-Asian mix of Thai favourites and other dishes from across Southeast Asia, with some Mexican bits thrown in.
But it works. The food is superb. Tasty, well presented, and at a good price for the quality.
There’s a good range of beers and wines on the menu, and staff were great. They were excellent at dealing with a request for gluten free for one person.
A fantastic choose if you’re visiting Coogee.

A friend recommended we try the Trust Me menu after Bondi Coogee beach walk. So we trusted her and tried it and We loved it!!! Everything was delicious. Loved the starters bc they were so refreshing after the walk. We had the prawn cakes, king fish sashimi, and the salmon ceviche lettuce cups. Yum yum!

Really tasty food. Roti incredible and all the sauces as well. Chicken some of the best I’ve had. Pricy but worth the price point.

I booked a table for 4 people very last minute but Sugarcane fitted us in on a busy Friday night. Everything we ordered was amazing, the wine was lovely and the staff were so friendly & helpful. The beef curry was my favourite.
My cousin is coeliac & has a nut allergy and the waiter was very accommodating. Would highly recommend this restaurant!

My wife and I have been to Sugarcane a few times. This time we took advantage of the set menu and drinks deal on offer to have a cheeky lunch date. The food was wonderful and the staff were outstandingly generous. We sat outside on a beautiful summer day where we could say hello to a plethora of local puppies walking by. We will be back again....numerous times.

Group of 8 dining on a busy Saturday night. Was seated at a long table with stools. Not extremely comfortable but depends on how long you stay.
Service was quick , attentive. Food arrived quickly with all dishes on banquet arriving within 30mins.
The $70 pp banquet is adequate but pricey for what you receive. I feel the experience would be better if you were able to choose your entrees and mains to share.
The service charge is high so beware when dining in large groups
Food. The crab and green apple entree was way to much apple. Not balanced.
Salmon entree was great.
Mains were fine, chicken and a vegetable curry were tasty

Book well in advance for a weekend night (or any night for that matter). Also, make sure you've cleaned your ears out before you rock up because the bustle and conversation in this restaurant is loud but it all makes for great atmosphere.
The kingfish is to die for and the crunch of the garlic on this dish is the perfect pairing. I also recommend the lamb ribs and wagyu rendang. Actually, I don't think Sugarcane would serve up a less than amazing dish.
There's a huge wine list to choose from and plenty of cocktails to keep you hydrated. This would be the nicest and priciest restaurant in Coogee but a perfect night out (I really want to try their breakfast menu too).

Absolutely fantastic meal. I'm not big on the whole "this was my entire day leading up to us sitting down to eat" type of reviews. This place is legit. Wonderful staff and a menu to match. Looking forward to our next trip to Australia so I can come back!

Food was pretty good!! Came here with a group of five and we all ate very well. We enjoyed the green mango salad, the chicken pad Thai, raw scallops, salmon ceviche, crispy chicken, and beef curry. I'd say the salmon ceviche was our least favorite. They also have an extensive wine list but we're out of our wine of preference.

One of the most memorable meals I've had in a long time! Decided to go with the "trust me" menu not knowing what would be served and it did not disappoint. I believe it was 9 dishes that I tried - honestly lost count after awhile because it was a ton of food! Although it was a lot, the quality and care that went into each dish was amazing. It was a great way to try a little of everything from minced pork lettuce cups to fish to Wagyu beef curry to crispy chicken (when we dined) and more. Opted out dessert because my stomach would have exploded. I'm unsure if the menu changes, but if you get a chance to try some of the things I mentioned, you won't regret it. Thank you Sugarcane for the fabulous meal(s) I enjoyed every moment of it!

Really great all around, although slightly on the pricey side for what is essentially classic southeast Asian cuisine. Loved the wagyu (short rib) curry, pork mince lettuce cups and stir fried Asian vegetables. Pisco sour was also quite good. Oysters should have liquor kept in them. But overall would definitely come back for another romantic meal!
