A favourite with many of Sydney's sporting teams and celebrities, kelly's now has a contemporary fitout and spectacular views across the eastern suburbs all the way to the harbour bridge and city skyline.
Here at kelly's we use a unique African style of cooking. The meat is basted in our secret sauce then cooked on our char-grill which has been specially built and imported from Africa.
Editorial
Kelly's steak and ribs were something of a local legend among East Sydney residents in the '90s. In 2004 Kelly's shifted to ritzier digs on level 6 of Westfield's Bondi Junction and it's been packing in loyal followers, hungry shoppers and pre-movie dinner-daters ever since. With the location change they've landed some great Sydney views; a wall of windows taking in a sweep of leafy Eastern suburbs vista, the CBD and harbour landmarks clearly visible in the distance.
Kelly's three owners hail from meat-loving South Africa and they've imported a purpose built chargrill from Africa to keep their cooking true to tradition. Basted steaks cooked to order come with potato or rice side-serves, and there are some divine sauces (sold separately in little china jars) including Madagascar green peppercorn and cream. Connoisseurs of the boerewors (a traditional farmer's beef sausage) will be impressed with Kelly's thick, gamey version, which can also be purchased to take home (sold by the coil!) from Kelly's deli. Simple seafood dishes including paprika-dusted prawns with lemon juice and peri peri oil and good fried calamari also grace the menu, as well as vegie burgers and pastas for the carnivorously challenged.
