Boronia Kitchen

Contemporary$$

Family favourites with fine-dining pedigree.

The pocket of Pittwater Road occupied by Boronia Kitchen might not have much in the way of a vista, but there are plenty of glitzier strips missing the hospitality this local hero offers.

Headed by Aria alumnus Simon Sandall, the menu is imbued with a sense of though and care and nods to the kitchen garden, and the floor team is personable from your first foot through the door.

The yuzu-spiked slab of prawn toast deserves its fandom, but something more seasonal – perhaps chargrilled asparagus with basil puree and nasturtiums – is also a must. Main courses are generous, including rotisserie chicken with a five-spice glaze, and beef fillet with a splendid sauce diane and puffy, crunchy onion rings.

Add a short but well-judged wine selection by the glass, and a homely dining room with great light, and it’s easy to understand why Boronia is such a reliable all-rounder for locals.

Good to know: The parmesan toast with chilli scrambled eggs is a drawcard for breakfast.
