  • 5/5 Sydney S. 2 years ago on Google
    The creativity of their menu coupled with fantastic hospitality has earned Noi a spot on my list of favourite restaurants in Sydney. Situated in leafy suburbia, Noi is a humble abode to Northern Italian cuisine with a focus on sustainability (big yes!). First off, we were pleasantly surprised by the amuse-bouche of artichoke, chorizo and pepita seeds. The mild nutty taste of the artichoke was complemented beautifully by the smoky chorizo, leaving a great first impression of what was to come. Also, I could go on about the basket of house made bread and crackers, it was so cute and everything was perfect texture wise. Duck/King Prawn croquettes - 9/10 Loved these bites because they came piping hot and each croquette had a very generous amount of duck/king prawn filling and for good reason because both were flavour bombs. Pig’s head (entree) - 10/10 Wow did not think I would love this as much as I actually did! I didn’t know what to expect when I saw ‘giardiniera textures’ but I was feeling adventurous hehe. The photo obviously does not do it justice because you can’t see the star of the dish, oops haha. The pig’s head itself was similar to pulled pork and it was tender, juicy and savoury. The diced onions and cauliflowers weaved into the pork added a nice bite and the purée enhanced the savoury flavour profile of the dish. Also, the nori crisp was a nice finishing touch delivering the textural change the dish needed. Yellowfin tuna - 8/10 The dish was exactly what you would want from an entree - light and fresh. For me, the pig’s head blew the tuna tartare out of the water so I only had a few bites but I enjoyed the whimsical use of the spring onion as noodles. The Terramisu was hands down the best tiramisu that I’ve ever eaten in Sydney!

    Fab!! So glad to have stumbled on this local gem. Booked for partners birthday and did 3 course with starter and desert on top of that. Was delish with a mesh of cuisines and infused with deep flavours. Love the tableware too and a varied wine menu! Cocktails were also very nice. Recommended for any special dinner.

    Federica & Alessandro are absolute professional. Food is meticulously looked after from start to finish. You can taste every element in each dish which are booming with flavours. The testing menu gives you the opportunity to taste what this guys are really capable off. Wine pairings it's a must to properly enjoy the full experience. Their menu it's seasonal and all their products are responsibly sourced , supports local producers and reduces their carbon footprint. If you in the area i definitely recommend to pay this guys a visit. Keep up the good work 💪✌️

    A small cosy restaurant with a romantic vibe. So glad that we tried this place. We had the 3-course meal. Food was great with good value especially the ravioli, the pasta and the complimentary starter. All the dishes are well-plated. The service was perfect. We’ll definitely come back as they change their menu every 2 months.

    The service and the chefs were amazing! We went in hungry, got out happy and satisfied with everything we had! You will feel a lot of passion, effort, thought and love in each dish. We had the 3 course meal which was very filling for tiny humans like us! Such a lovely experience. We brought our parents there while visiting us here in Au and was such a great idea.

    One of the best dinners we have ever had - hands down. A few weeks ago we approached Federica and Alessandro to host our 22nd anniversary but with a twist. Chef's choice curated for us. They and the team had free rein on what was served and drunk and boy oh boy was it stunning. The fact that all of the team made an effort to discuss cocktail and wine pairings along with the degustation menu being prepared. I simply cannot describe how memorable an evening it was with the care, attention and smiles from the entire Noi team on Saturday. We have already booked our next dinner for my birthday and cannot wait. Thank you Federica, Omar, Rik, Gian Luca and team. Such a wonderful night wont be forgotten! I hope the photos load in the right order as per the menu. Enjoy! this place is really special and I cannot wait to go back

    I was initially planing to go to another restaurant in Petersham but passed by Noi and decided to have lunch here. I am actually glad that I made a good decision to come here. All the staffs are super friendly and recommended some nice food for us. We have chose the 3 course meal and it’s very affordable with the quality and taste of the meals. We actually finished every bites of the meals, the food is amazing. The sour dough breads are so good as a complimentary starter. I would definitely go back to try another meals here again. I have already told some of my friends to go to Noi to try the dining. Highly recommended!

    Apart from also having DELICIOUS meals here as part of their regular trade I had our wedding dinner here and it was UNPARALLELED. A gorgeous intimate venue, the food was exquisite, the wine and drink pairing were phenomenal, and the service was SO BLOODY GOOD. The whole team here are so warm and funny and really bloody dedicated to their craft.

    Noi had to be one of the best restaurants in the Inner West! Everything here was absolutely exceptional. We opted for the 5 course degustation and we’re blown away. Every dish tasted great and was immaculately presented. The restaurant itself has a classy, modern vibe and the service was both extremely professional and friendly. We’ll definitely be coming back soon.

    Great food, prices are fair. We picked the 3 courses, I think it worked out 80 something each. Definitely will go back again when they have a different menu 🤙

    Was visiting my son and we went here for lunch. Absolutely superb food and presentation. Would thoroughly recommend. Great selection of Italian wines. Just mouth watering.

  • 5/5 Rohan A. 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic restaurant that we are super glad we found a couple of years ago. Each visit re-enforces why we come back; excellent quality food and service that is attentive without being in your face every 5 mins. Always feel like we got value for money and well fed. The set menu events have been top notch with a diverse wine selection if that's your thing. Despite being quite an intimate overall setting there aren't any noise issues from neighbouring tables. Definitely recommend checking it out if you haven't, very much a hidden gem.

    Really cozy vibe with the open kitchen. The food here is amazing, full of flavour. Each ingredients has their own job, when you combine everything together, It becomes a colourful picture. The wine list is diversity as well. Service is great, friendly, they really know their stuff. Highly recommend!!!

    Lovely restaurant with really friendly staff - loved the complimentary house made bread and snacks. Dishes were tasty, though the fish was on the dry side.

  • 5/5 Luca 2 years ago on Google
    We loved ambiance, wine, food & friendly staff. The menu was definitely very innovative and out of the ordinary. Highly recommended the Set Menu!

    Went here based on the good reviews. However, felt that some of the flavours didn't go well together on some of the dishes. Stand out dishes were the pastas and desserts. Service was great.
