AddressAt Merivale we aim to bring a little magic into the everyday. We are driven to deliver unique and memorable experiences to every person who steps into one of our venues.
Owned and run by the Hemmes family for over 60 years, Merivale began as an iconic fashion house started by John and Merivale Hemmes. Merivale’s fashionable beginnings were soon followed by a venture into hospitality, opening a Thai tea café within their Sydney CBD fashion building in 1970. From here, Merivale’s hospitality roots were firmly planted.
Merivale is now led by CEO Justin Hemmes, whose creativity and knack for pushing the boundaries has made Merivale what it is today. Hemmes has become a pioneer within the Australian hospitality industry, growing the ever-expanding Merivale portfolio to over 70 brands and venues.
The Venue
Mr. Wong does Cantonese-style food in a larger-than-life way. This two hatted venue seats 240 people over two levels and serves a selection of up to 80 dishes, it’s a big affair. Yet somehow, with nooks for two, dim lighting and moody jazz the restaurant still manages to feel intimate.
At the helm is Executive Chef Dan Hong, who brings his energy and creative flair to the kitchen. Barbecue ducks are a crowd favourite (we have a whole room dedicated to them), as is our lunchtime dim sum menu by Michael Luo.
