Book a Table at one of the Best Restaurants in Camden

Whether you’re a Western Sydney local or a city-slicker looking to broaden your foodie horizons, Camden’s foodie scene deserves a look in. There is so much on offer that you’re guaranteed to be satiated, whatever you’re craving.

All-you-can-eat Italian? Covered! Middle Eastern mezze? Of course! There’s plenty to enjoy so best hop to it. Read on for our edit of the best restaurants in Camden. 

Argyle House

Camden just scored a serious culinary glow-up, and it comes in the form of Argyle House — a newly opened dining destination bringing rooftop domes, theatrical tasting menus and some of Australia’s top culinary talent to the heart of the region. Housed inside a beautifully restored heritage site that once fell victim to fire, this multi-million dollar reimagining is setting a new benchmark for regional fine dining in NSW.

At the helm? Acclaimed chef Jason McQueen (ex-Quay, Aria, Bel Mondo), a Camden local with a global mindset and a serious knack for crafting flavour-forward, umami-rich dishes that are as stunning to look at as they are to eat. Think: caramelised miso Patagonian toothfish marinated for three days, and MB6+ Wagyu striploin grilled over flame — modern Australian with a Japanese-fusion twist. Dessert gets its moment too, with playful creations like “chocolate sushi” and Frangelico affogato that toe the line between art and indulgence.

But the real showstopper? The rooftop dining domes, each offering an immersive seven-course degustation Wednesday through Saturday.

Buon Appetit

Food truck turned buzzing restaurant, Buon Appetit has found a permanent home in Camden to bring people together through hearty and delicious traditional Italian food. Inspired by their family’s love of meals spent together, this is a place you can stay a while.

Gather with friends or family to make your way through antipasto, pizza, pasta and gnocchi, and save room for dessert – you’ll want to try the pistachio white chocolate pizza and tiramisu!

El Patron

There’s no need to trek into the city if you’re craving swish cocktails, tapas and the potential for a dance floor later in the evening. The considered cocktail menu at El Patron includes the likes of palomas and spicy margs and a huge selection of spirits from tequila to mezcal.

Dinner involves South America-inspired tapas plates and a selection of heftier mains. Something is always happening here, so if you’re all about a good time, stay abreast of upcoming events here.

Enzo’s Cucina

The menu covers all the Italian classics you know and love and is ideal for a comfort food moment. Enzo’s also shines when it comes to group dining. On top of a three-hour drinks package, groups of ten or more have the choice of seven different set menus!

Amoretti’s

Antico Restaurants 

Wood-fired pizza hits differently and Antico has got theirs down pat. The restaurant has a warm and homely feel whilst the food is farm-to-table fresh. If you’re popping in you can choose from a huge range of pizzas and pasta but if you’re booked in a group of 10 you’re in for a real treat.

The Antico All You Can Eat will be your dining mode, and for $38 per adult and $15 per child, you can score as many entrees, pizza and pasta as you can eat! 

2a Sharman Close, Harrington Park

Ribs & Burgers 

As the name suggests, these guys are no-fuss – they specialise in slow-cooked meat, and they do it well. If you’re channelling a casual bite Ribs & Burgers is a top choice. Burgers, ribs, steaks, salads and desserts are all up for grabs alongside beer, wine, cocktails and thickshakes.
