Where To Eat On A Monday Night In The Shire
We’ve got you
Sealevel, Cronulla
Sutherland Shire restaurants are notorious for being booked out weeks in advance. Sometimes it seems securing a restaurant booking almost compares to winning the lottery. On top of that, many restaurants are closed on Monday nights for a well-earned rest. Thankfully, there’s still a handful that keep their doors open to ensure we don't go hungry. Bless them. So if you’re thinking a home-cooked meal just won’t suffice, here’s our pick of Monday night eats.
Alphabet St. Cronulla - For modern Asian cuisine and great cocktails
Alphabet St. Cronulla is all about bold flavours, great cocktails and dishes designed to be shared. There's no denying the sense of fun here, so if you ask us, it’s the perfect way to spend a Monday night. Start with an Apple Martini (you won’t look back) and choose a few dishes to share. The Massaman Curry is always a crowd pleaser! BYO on Monday evenings is available.
