Why it's worth checking out
The Ternary sits on Murray Street at Darling Harbour, in the Pyrmont area by Sydney's lively waterfront, within the Ovolo 1888 hotel. A stylish restaurant, it's earned a strong reputation for its quality, modern cooking — often with a sustainable, produce-driven focus and Asian and Mediterranean influences — the kind of accomplished, characterful spot that's become a genuine favourite.
The appeal is that combination of quality, contemporary food, a good drinks offering and a stylish, characterful setting in a great Darling Harbour location, ideal for a relaxed meal, a special dinner or a sociable night out. A quality restaurant with genuine style and a thoughtful approach stands out, and The Ternary has clearly won over a loyal following.
With a 4.5 rating from more than 1,000 reviews, it's clearly delighting its diners. Menus, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular Darling Harbour restaurant fills up on weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly before you go — particularly if you're dining with a group, after a table at a peak time, or planning a special meal by the harbour.
