Fine-dining with flair, fire and originality.

If one thing stands out about ANY, it’s the ambition. Plenty of restaurants serve sirloin steak, for example. But how many of them source theirs from retired dairy cows, dry-age them themselves (at sister venue MAS), then grill them over coals to blushing pink perfection? ANY does, then adds punchy anchovy chimichurri and rich bone sauce for good measure.

Needless to say, this isn’t your regular CBD fine-diner.

Want more? How about cuttlefish sliced thin and served as just-set ‘noodles’ with mushroom and – crazy but it really works – aged manchego? Or whole roasted kohlrabi sauced with smoked celeriac skin jus that brings savoury depth and topped with folds of salt-cured kohlrabi that bring acid? In lesser hands, these ideas just wouldn’t work, but ANY’s strength is in how it manages to not just think outside the box but stick the landing on so many occasions.

Wine places bottles from the US and the Old World alongside locals, service hits its marks, and the room, with one long open kitchen on one side, comfortable booths and marble tables on the other, is slick and sleek. The sum total? A stunning package, delivering on its promise.
