A larger twin of the original Criniti's in Parramatta, this restaurant seats up to 480 patrons and sits in the centre of all action on the Harbour and overlooks Sydney's famous skyline and of course, Darling Harbour. The restaurant's open air terrace will give you spectacular views while you wine and dine.

Spice this up with some chilli and it might just be one of the best pastas you'll ever have. The steak menu features the same kind of "make your own combination" style as the pastas where diners can choose from their choice cut of meat and combine this with one of the many choices of sauce. You might try the funghi, a mushroom and cream sauce with a touch of garlic and white wine.
