Why it's worth checking out
The Palomar sits on Oxford Street in Paddington, one of Sydney's most stylish inner-eastern suburbs. A 4.6 rating from 73 reviews marks it as a genuine local favourite.
The appeal is quality, flavour-packed dining with a loyal following — a great choice for a memorable meal, a catch-up with friends or a special dinner, often with Middle Eastern and Mediterranean-influenced flavours. Its Oxford Street location, close to the shops, galleries and nightlife, makes it an easy and welcoming destination.
Menus, trading hours and availability change over time, and busy nights may call for a booking. To be sure of a table and the latest details, it's worth contacting the restaurant directly before you plan your visit.
