We recently stayed at the Victoria Court Hotel - almost next door - and chanced into DOV on our way into the city for a concert at the Opera House. Although early in the evening (6pm) there were some others in there and we were made to feel very welcome. The service was friendly and efficient and our food was... More

My husband and I ate at Cafe DOV a couple of weeks ago. We'd unsuccessfully tried to get a table at the renowned Ms G's, but we were told by the wait staff it would be at least 1 to 1 and a 1/2 hours before we got a table, and they didn't seem particularly apologetic - so we left.... More

I was staying in the Mercure Potts Point and I was so pleased that breakfast wasn't included because I found Cafe Dov. I ended up visiting every morning and trying something different on the menu each day. The staff were fantastic and even remembered me from the first day. I can't recommend the pulled pork and beans highly enough as... More

Attended for dinner with 3 family members just after Christmas. The prices are very reasonably, the wine list excellently selected (they actually choose the wines – not what’s on special on Coles) and the service as I stated, excellent. One of the dinner party sent back a slightly undercooked salmon and they were very apologetic and professionally corrected it. Included... More

These people have good attention to detail. They are used to providing great service during busy times and are such professional wait staff that they know the level of involvement to have with their customers. Some of the time saving little things - for instance they pop your cutlery in a little container and put it on your table after... More

I cannot understand how this cafe does not rank higher. I came across this great little cafe while staying in the Holiday Inn in Potts Point over the Christmas with my girlfriend, We had breakfast here each morning, 5 in total. I cannot comment on many items on the breakfast menu as I was never able to look beyond a... More

I have been going here for many years, and the food is always very good, the atmosphere is also great. The food is what it is all about and they deliver fine food without fuss, there has always been a touch of the middle east about the place, the influence of Israel on their offerings is very clear and welcomed...

This restaurant/cafe is fabulous. The food is excellent. I had ling fish with a delicately spiced sweet potato as a side dish. The service was excellent and the waitress was brilliant. She was intellect, extremely efficient and had a great sense of humor. We loved her. Ambience is modern and of course the kitchen staff were obviously excellent at what... More

Following the Lonely Planet recommendation I visited DOV with my friend. Excellent service, a broad range of Australian wines and delicious food. Try barramundi or stake. A dinner for 2 with wine is 100AUD. They also serve full breakfast and lunch. Strongly recommended!
