Why Elizabeth Bay Locals Are Lucky to Have Sonora Just Around the Corner

There’s something magical about Elizabeth Bay.

With its leafy streets, Art Deco charm, harbour views and village atmosphere, it’s one of the most sought-after pockets in Sydney. But let’s be honest—there’s another reason locals are lucky: Sonora Mexican Restaurant + Bar is just a stone’s throw away.

Nestled on the corner of Ward Ave and Bayswater Road in Potts Point, Sonora is redefining what it means to eat Mexican in Sydney. We’re not your average taco joint. We work with fresh Australian produce, much of it from our own kitchen garden, to create bold, seasonal menus that celebrate modern Mexican cuisine with a twist. Think octopus with burnt citrus, tacos with house-made heirloom corn tortillas, and mezcal cocktails that rival any bar in Sydney.

For the residents of Elizabeth Bay, this means world-class dining is literally walking distance away. Whether you’re after a long Friday night with friends, a quiet mid-week dinner, or a bottomless brunch on the weekend, Sonora Potts Point is your local gem.

And the locals are in on it. We’ve seen couples swing past for a quick margarita after work. Families drop in for Sunday lunch. Even your dog is welcome if you’re sitting outdoors—yes, we’re that kind of neighbourly.
