    One of our favourite restaurants in Sydney. Love their menu and the classic French options available. We also appreciated that it was pram and baby friendly.

    We had a late booking at 9:30 Saturday night for an outside table which was already on our arrival. Delicious cocktails and a really knowledgeable waitress made ordering a delightful experience. Steak frites with bearnaise and pepper sauces were really lovely, but the standout was the side dish of brussels sprouts. Who would’ve thought brussels sprouts would steal the show?! will definitely be back.
