Restaurant Mason

Restaurant Mason is an exceptional culinary destination in Newcastle - so good in fact that I would make a one hour detour to enjoy lunch or dinner at Mason before visiting the Hunter Valley. I’ve enjoyed more than half a dozen meals at Mason over the years. Staff are warm and welcoming and the food would rock the counter-tops of any Michelin-star restaurant in Europe. The in-house baked bread with black garlic is divine and the triple-cooked chips is always a must-order. My only wish is that the restaurant would re-locate to the Sydney CBD so I could visit more often!

Absolutely amazing food, service, wine and atmosphere. The flavours are delicate, delicious and world class. The best vegan and vegetarian options ever. For once we don’t feel like an afterthought. At the same token I can see plenty of happy meat eaters around me. CovidSafe wise I felt comfy too, they continue to wear masks and the tables are far apart, oh yes and plenty of fresh air too. I’ll be back here whenever I’m in Newcastle

Mason has restored our faith in a fine dining experience in newcastle. From the low volume music in the background, the lighting, the positioning of the tables and to the amazing food. We visited Mason for our valentine celebration and we were wowed. Highly recommend. I really hope the quality stays like this as we would like to visit this place more

Great value degustation and high quality. The scallops were absolutely a must order and the steak was as expected (perfectly cooked). I would however give the baklava a miss though - a bit ordinary. On Friday they had a night market close by that played live music that we were able to capitalise off so that was lovely.
