    Very slow service considering how expensive this was for a brunch. We had been thee an hour and only been given 1 small starter. Advertised as bottomless mimosas but it was near impossible to get a waiter to bring you a drink and we were then given several notices that we would have to leave soon so they could set up for dinner at 215pm!

    Being together with a spectacular view. Good service. Tyler was excellent. Food good but not amazing. Cheese and dessert best part of the food experience.

    Amazing venue with an amazing view. A perfect way to enjoy the vivid lights. The service could not be faulted and the food was fantastic.

    Food is good - good presentation and very well prepared. Kitchen does a great job! Sommelier was very good, top marks to her! We mark this restaurant down due to very poor service - we are still waiting for 3 requests to be fulfilled. Very poor attention to service delivery. This venue has great scenic views, however, poor arrangement of tables ensures the building's structural columns block many people's ability to enjoy the views!

    Yesterday night we had the chance to celebrate with my wife our 11th anniversary at Altitude. The Service from the first minute was so friendly and professional!! The combination of Beautiful dishes the Amazing views and hospitality are the keystones!! Another style of music possibly is something for the stylist to concider.(I love blues but it didn't match that much) Sarah, Tamara, Davido thank you very much!

    After a three week tour of Australia this was supposed to be the pinnacle and highlight. It was far from it. Asked to wait and then finally 15mins after our allotted time. Then a further wait of 25mins for a drinks menu which was asked for twice, this meant it was 40minutes after being seated before getting our first drinks. Food superb. Can't fault that element but when paying in access of $300 it was unfortunately already a poor experience from the initial waiting time.

    Great view and great food! No idea what the reviews are about on Tripadvisor, as they say the food wasn't good and the service was terrible.. the food was incredible, I worked in a fine dining restaurant as a chef for 2 1/2 years and I ran my friends restaurant for 2 years on top! So I'd like to think I know what good food is! Great service too, Davide was our waiter and it was a great night that was spent for my girlfriends 20th birthday. I'll definitely be coming back.

    We were the second time in Sydney and we decided to go the second time for dinner at Altitude. We love the food, the views and the atmosphere and we didn't experience disappointment. I will do it again!!!

    We visited this restaurant for a 21st birthday. We were pleased with the food and service. We were disappointed that for such a special occasion we could not have a table beside the window particularly since the table had been booked 2 months and at no point were we told we would not be able to have a table with a view.
