    Highly recommend. Service great & food super. Definitely get anchovy toast things with sorbet. & the wagyu with egg. & start with a dirty martinez & finish with a pedro jimenez. You'll leave happy!

    The jamon croquettes and the goat curd cigarettes are a must have! The roasted baby goat for mains and churros for dessert sums up a yummy dinner. The bourbon cocktail was delicious too.

    Really enjoyed our meal at Movida. Friendly, knowledgable staff. Amazing food. Loved the tuna with watermelon; wagu beef with egg; patatas bravas; and churros. Worth the wait. Will return many times!

    Service was helpful, understated, atmosphere was ambient and not overly crowded or loud. The food itself is delicious - apparently they change their menu every 3 months as well. We will be back!

    Honestly. Just get yourself there and eat some of the best damn food in Sydney. Trust literally everyone and get the Dry Aged Wagyu with Truffle Foam and Egg.

    If you come in for the early session, be prepared to be reminded ad nauseum that you have to leave by 8pm. Great food though, so is it worth the pesky reminders of your short time left there?

    Great Tapas, the Bocadillo De Chorizo (mini Chorizo burger) is fantastic! Reasonably priced items and well worth the try.

    Excellent plates to share, the Wagyu Beef + Egg and Lamb Shoulder were exceptionally special. Will have to come back to try the rest!

    Wagyu beef alone make it worth going to. Anchovies another stand out dish. Great food and knowledgable staff

    Get a table at the bar for best service. Wagyu beef with trufle eggs is a must!

    Not too expensive and a great selection of small tapas plates to try. There aren't many wines by the glass.

    Loved the wagyu beef truffle foam and poach eggs. Only bad comment is arrogant and unfriendly service .
