    Fantastic food and service. Elevated without being pretentious. It's a place that's just as welcoming for locals who want a casual dinner but also for those dining out for a special occasion, which is hard to come by. They even gave us a drink on the house for my partner's bday. Would highly recommend.

    It is honestly such a hidden gem right around the corner from my place. I was seriously impressed by how quickly I could walk over there and grab a bite. Everything tasted absolutely amazing and really hit the spot after a long day. You definitely need to check it out if you want a reliable and tasty meal nearby. It is rare to find a spot that exceeds expectations so easily.

    Absolutely loved our experience at Sippenham- the food was outstanding. I’ve been wanting to find a local restaurant that does beautiful hand made pasta and this was it for me. Everything tasted incredible, staff were friendly and was such a funky vibe inside. I’ll definitely be returning!

    We love this local gem of a restaurant. The food is terrific, I tried the prawns and they were amazing, plus they serve Sydney's best lasagne. The service is awesome and it's such a cool vibe with great playlists that create a terrific atmosphere.

    We had a fabulous first visit to Sippenham. As it was just the two of us, we chose the intimate seating beside the kitchen, which was perfect. We started with the focaccia, tuna crudo and grilled Mooloolaba king prawns, quite possibly some of the most delicious prawns I can remember eating. Everything was outstanding. For mains, we shared the rich beef shin lasagna, spaghetti with blue swimmer crab and an endive salad. Each dish was delicious and beautifully balanced. Sadly, we didn’t have room for the homemade tiramisu, which looked divine, so we’ll definitely have to return! The service was excellent, the music was at a comfortable volume, and overall, we can honestly say it was one of the best meals we’ve had in a long time. Highly recommended.
