Sydney, Sept 2026. The Ternary, the restaurant at Novotel Sydney Darling Harbour, has won a Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award for 2026. The award places us in the top 10% of listings worldwide on Tripadvisor, and we are also ranked among the top 10 restaurants in Sydney

What is the Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award?

Travellers’ Choice is one of the most recognised awards in travel and dining. Winners are chosen from genuine, first-hand reviews and ratings left by travellers on Tripadvisor over a 12-month period. Businesses cannot apply for it or buy it. Only listings that consistently earn great feedback from real guests make the top 10% worldwide.

What this means for The Ternary

Every review behind this award came from someone who sat at one of our tables, then took the time to write about it. Sydney has an enormous dining scene, so being named among the city’s top 10 restaurants by the people who actually eat here means a great deal to our team.

Thank you to everyone who dined with us and shared their experience. Thank you also to our chefs, floor team, bartenders and sommeliers, who bring this restaurant to life every service, from long weekend lunches to late dinners with a view of Darling Harbour.

Tripadvisor’s Chief Marketing Officer, Matt Dacey, said: “Ranking among the top percentage of businesses globally means you have made such a memorable impact on your visitors that many of them took time to go online and leave a glowing review about their experience. We hope this recognition continues to drive business to you in 2026 and beyond.”
