After being through many Asian restaurants, being in a European restaurant made for a good change. One of the best talked about places is Crinitis, an italian restaurant at the heart of the city- Darling Harbour.
One's first impression was how friendly the atmosphere was. It is a restaurant with a bar. This is an upper-class italian restaurant. Expect to dress smart-casual when you come. The price range is a little dearer than your usual italian restaurant, however the food is made well.
The food is freshly made on the spot, and you can actually see the chef's creating your dish. One dish that I would like to mention is the pizza. We decided to share a one metre long pizza between all of us (which turns out to be about $20 each for 5 people).
If you order a metre long pizza, you're able to choose three flavours to add to your pizza.
I would especially like to mention that if you are having a birthday at Crinitis, make sure you share dishes, as they can be in the $50-100 range. Also, if you tell the owners that someone is celebrating their birthday, waiters will come to your table with a birthday cake and sing.
Many good things can be said about crinitis- the lively atmosphere, the design of the restaurant, the delicious food. However there are some shortcomings as well, for instance service is slow and the food is a little overpriced. But overall, crinitis is still an excellent place to visit at least once.
