About Me-Gal restaurant

“We are created from the tears of Biame*, just as her tears created the ocean.  Me-Gal is the Gaimaragal word for ‘tear’ and is spoken in context with our ocean creation story and speaks strongly of the saltwater that surrounds this site.”

- Dennis Foley, Cammeraigal Traditional Custodian

*Biame is our creator spirit and is represented in many forms throughout Aboriginal communities.

Located in a harbourside enclave on Sydney’s Lower North Shore, with sweeping views of Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Opera House, and the city skyline, Me-Gal offers a dining experience, set in a natural, native bushland setting. The focus is on serving fresh, sustainably sourced produce with a seasonally changing menu of dishes. Me-Gal is the epitome of communal dining with dishes that are designed for sharing.

Note: Menus are subject to change, seasonality and availability.
