Four of us celebrated the end of Covid-19 lockdown by lunching here on a busy Friday afternoon in mid June. It was good to see such a decent turnout, in fact without a booking, we were lucky to get a nice table in the middle of the room.
And it turned out to be a satisfying, enjoyable and pleasant dining experience. Service was outstanding: friendly, efficient and helpful. Orders were quickly taken and drinks and food came out promptly and in the correct order. Food was of a high standard. I ordered a medium salmon pizza, excellent value at only $17. It had a delicious, thin crispy base, and was topped with lashings of fresh salmon, capers, onions, tomatoes and sour cream. To complement it, a rocket and parmesan salad ($10). It was a generous size, filled with wholesome and nutritious rocket, and sprinkled with a dose of flavoursome parmesan cheese. My dining companions chose the veal or chicken schnitzels, and they all enjoyed their meals.
The ambience was casual, laid back and relaxed, with comfortable chairs, a table large enough to easily fit all the dishes and decent lighting. Upstairs, in the disused part of the restaurant, are clean and well provisioned toilets.
Another plus for Arthur’s is its convenient location in the heart of the Bondi Junction mall.
We’ll certainly be back.
