Machiavelli Ristorante

The Verdict

This Sydney CBD restaurant has been keeping foodies full for over 25 years with their classic Italian menu. Be sure to go in hungry to get the full experience: start with oysters or the insalata caprese, then move on to a big bowl of spaghetti a’matriciana or go all out for a steak tartare. 

For dessert, it’s all about the crepes suzette, but you’d better order an affogatto as well, just to be sure you’re covering all bases.
