About

Nestled on Level 26 of Crown Sydney, Oncore by Clare Smyth offers a dining experience that transcends the ordinary. With a remarkable rating of 4.5 from over 540 reviews, this upscale restaurant is the epitome of fine dining in Sydney. Guests are welcomed through a private entrance, setting the tone for an evening of exceptional service and culinary artistry. The ambiance is elegant yet inviting, with sweeping views of the Sydney skyline that enhance every meal.

The standout feature of Oncore is its seasonal 7-course menu, meticulously crafted to showcase the best of Australian ingredients. Diners rave about dishes such as the Western Australian marron and the signature Potato and Roe, which have left many, like one guest, convinced they could never enjoy potatoes the same way again. The chefs take pride in personally introducing each course, creating an intimate connection that elevates the dining experience. Oncore’s commitment to catering to individual dietary needs further exemplifies their dedication to guest satisfaction.

Oncore operates Tuesday through Saturday, with lunch and dinner service that accommodates both casual celebrations and special occasions. The restaurant's vibrant location in Barangaroo places it amid one of Sydney's most dynamic neighborhoods, perfect for a pre-dinner stroll along the waterfront. With its flawless service and world-class cuisine, Oncore is not just a meal; it’s an unforgettable experience that beckons for return visits, making it a must-visit for any discerning foodie in Sydney.

Clare Smyth's first international restaurant on the 26th floor of Crown Sydney—Fabled Studio's warm Australian timbers and stone interior framing Opera House and Harbour Bridge views—operated from 2019 until February 2026 as one of Sydney's most critically celebrated fine-dining rooms.
