Top 5 French Restaurant in New South Wales

60 A Clanville Rd, Roseville NSW 2069, Australia

“I found this little gem while looking for French food in Sydney. It's located right next to the tennis courts and a mini forest/ park area which was stunning. The food....mind blown.... literally... Cannot get any better. Me and my wife ordered both Entree, Main and Dessert. The flavour and freshness of the food was perfect. Customer service was friendly and professional. Would be visiting again to celebrate any special occasion.”

“We went to Charred for the degustation dinner. It was a fabulous weekend away in Orange with 4 nurse friends. Charred was our treat and what a wonderful experience we had! From the cocktails to start the night and to end with the delicious dessert. The customer service is exceptional and their knowledge of the food and local wines is impressive. I highly recommend this culinary experience and to explore Orange. Everything about Charred is sensational! My advice is just GO!”

“My partner and I visited for dinner a couple of nights ago. It was a wonderful experience from the atmosphere to delicious food! For entrees we had the carrot sponge and beef with lions mane mushrooms. I love fine dining but it was a first for my partner. He loved the spices and flavours in his carrot sponge and I was blown away by the subtle smokiness and marbling of the beef. For mains, I had the toothfish, and my partner had the wagyu steak. My dish was one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten - the flesh was rich buttery and flaky without being overly fishy. The umami laden brith had a great twang of sweetness and acidity and the inclusion of a deeply cooked daikon radish slice brought it to life. The fish was topped with crispy fried enoki mushrooms and a black rice crisp. Wow! Utterly delicious! My partner loved his steak too - it was served in a sour peruvian chili paste with a quenelle of butter mash atop a field mushroom. He loved his dish and particularly commented on the perfect cooking of the steak combined with the sour chili. For desserts, I had the earl grey sponge and my partner went for the strawberry and pepper dessert. His was outstanding - there was a rich matcha cremeaux served along the cake which was one of the most beautiful things either of us have tasted. My dessert was a cracker too - mild and floral but had an interesting play on textures. The earl grey cake was topped with a mildly honey scented custard creme, and topped with a dish of perfectly short crust. The center had been hollowed out and filled with caramel pear cubes. I enjoyed the sorbet' was a bit wary of an over- scented lavender sorbet however it was very subtle. I struggled to find the lavender notes! The wait staff throught the meal were excellent as well. The female waiter who greeted us was very warm and helpful. We were also served by a male waiter who towncrier-esque called out the recommended dishes. It was fast, energetic and casual, which helped my partner feel more at home in an environment which he was unfamiliar with (and feeling nervous about). All in all, a wonderful night! I recommend the toothfish :)”

“I gave them a 1 star review the first time for a bad pork crepe, but their sweet crepes are excellent. Avoid the weird tasting pork sauage and their food is great.”

1047 Pacific Hwy, Pymble NSW 2073, Australia

“High end service with pleasant and respectful staff, without feeling snobby. Just enough French accents, music and French decorations to make you feel like you have escaped Sydney. The food was magnifique and we were surprised by the great flavours, beautiful presentatio and the generous sizes. Their menu has just enough choices without feeling overwhelming (though we tried more than we could handle) and good drinks menu. Surprisingly busy even for a weekday, and they run out of parking quickly in the back (also very tight and only 1 car entry/ exit at a time). Highly recommend.”

“What a gorgeous wine bar with super friendly helpful staff and food and drinks to match. My partner and I have been meaning to have lunch here and it finally happened yesterday. My only regret is that it took so long to finally get here. While the food and service were perfect we really appreciated that service did not feel rushed and there was ample time between the courses. Highly recommend”

380 Oxford St, Paddington NSW 2021, Australia

“A lovely, rustic ambience. Service staff were welcoming and friendly. The food did not disappoint. Their fresh bread from the oven, was just perfectly baked and warm when served. Sydney Oysters were fresh and the beef tartare with black pepper and anchovies was just so flavoursome. The grass fed 1kg rib eye steak just melted in our mouths. The desserts were delicious and ended the dinner perfectly.”

“The entrees are good but the mains were extremely disappointing. The duck was very chewy and the steak was very below average we couldn’t finish both the steak and duck because of how hard and chewy it was. We do recommend the tartae and raw kingfish.”

“Went here for a xmas lunch with the family, the ambience was spectacular with great views by the water, it made you feel very relaxed. The service, phenomenal, our waiter was very attentitive and friendly. Food wise, we ordered a wide selection to really get a variety of flavours, but i was definitely feeling seafood (see food and eat it haha) that day and I honestly cant fault it. Wish the spanner crab pasta was on the menu, ive heard great things, but alas it was not on the menu (could be due to seasonality), so we opted for the prawn pasta instead. Definitely order the honey peppers as an accompanyment with the main, it pairs so well. Great drinks menu, plenty to choose from and recommendations are provided. Prices are what you'd expect it to be for an establishment like this and location (some may challenge that). We had a great time/experience and a stunning lunch with a view to start the holiday period.”

2 Anderson Pl, Cottage Point NSW 2084, Australia

“This is a very high end dining experience in a remote and dramatic location. The creativity, visual presentation and flavours are among the best I’ve experienced in Sydney. The service can be a little haphazard but the food and the location more than compensate! Go for lunch.”

“Last night, We dined at a Claire’s Kitchen at Le Salon and was thoroughly impressed. The atmosphere exuded sophistication, setting the perfect tone for a delightful evening. The service was nothing short of brilliant—attentive, accommodating, and professional. The scallop dish was an absolute highlight; a must-try for anyone visiting this establishment. Moreover, their steak surpassed my expectations, ranking among the best I’ve ever tasted. Not only was it exceptionally flavorful, but the portion size was generous, leaving me feeling wholly satisfied. the set menu was a decision I didn’t regret. The combination of both quality and quantity in their offerings made it a truly fulfilling dining experience. Overall, Claire’s Kitchen at Le salon is a fantastic place that truly live up to the rating.”

Level 1/2-10 Kensington St, Chippendale NSW 2008, Australia

“I really like the food from this French restaurant. Their snails are one of my favorites, very tasty and delicious. The bread is served warm, and the beef tartare is well-seasoned with a hint of pickles, which balances out amazingly. The pâté is creamy, and the depth of the flavors is very inspiring. The little pickles and pearl onions on the side accompany it perfectly. The fish is fresh and delicious, and the grilled vegetables are well-cooked too. The general flavor of this restaurant tends to be on the heavy side, so it’s something to keep in mind when ordering, especially if you’re not planning to feel very full. However, the service is not very amazing. When making the reservation, they asked what occasion it was for, and I mentioned a birthday. Unfortunately, there was no greeting or acknowledgment of the occasion upon our arrival, nor was anything prepared for it. This felt quite ignorant and superficial, considering they inquired about the occasion in the first place.”

“Food here is consistently good and have different options at different price point. You can splurge or just have a nice lunch for a reasonable amount. All dishes here pack a punch. Prawns with escargot XO was great; get some bread to dip in the sauce. Rainbow trout was also great. Vegetarian options hasn't changed much, and a few more here would be handy. Outside seats are dog-friendly.”
