Bitton in an iconic French-inspired cafe, bistro and functions room. We are family friendly and offer 5 star service.
We attended this local French themed restaurant, without great expectations however as soon as we entered and were greeted by the very friendly staff, we knew we were going to enjoy a really good dining experience. And we were not disappointed !!From the very efficient and professional floor staff to the those staff in the kitchen, it all ran without any fuss. The interior of the dining area was very agreeable and made you relax and enjoy the ambiance. The menu was not an extensive one however it was varied and it would suit most diners.Well prepared and presented, each course was absolutely delicious. The meat dishes were cooked to perfection and the fish dish was outstanding. The desserts were as good as the rest of the dishes on the menu and and they too were outstanding.Even the little touches, like the complimentary tasting appetizers at the start and finish of the meals were unexpected but much appreciated. The servings for each course were generous and fresh local produce ensured a high standard of meals arriving at the table. The wine list was appealing with local and international choices available and at reasonable costs.Overall a very, very good dining experience and one which ensures we will go back for a second experience. Highly recommended.Wow - what a way to start our day. Thank you so much for the very kind words - this is what my team and I strive for every day. Thank you and we look forward to welcoming you back to Bitton again very soon.Warmest regards

monté is a modern Australian restaurant in Leichhardt, Sydney Inner West. We combine what we believe is the ultimate menu with the best contemporary dining experience. Our food is the freshest, our atmosphere is relaxed and there is an extensive range of
Light & Modern French Fine Dining, yet with BYO.Could be described as Modern Australian with French influences or Lighter French Cuisine. Quality rather than quantity; starting from the initial bread with lovely olive oil and balsamic vinegar dipping sauce, progressing to the ceviche king fish entre & twice cooked pork belly with well balanced accompanying sauce and salad.My partners scallop entre and duck main were also very good.The restaurant has a lovely relaxed décor, with tables not too close together allowing easy conversation without having to raise ones voice. The wine prices are very reasonable, but if you have a favourite bottle of red at home take it with you as will only cost you $10 corkage.Only minor whinges are that steamed vegetables were string beans only and that waiters were slightly on the under attentive side.

The menu of Gavroche Chippendale pays homage to Parisian Bistrots. With an array of classic dishes that capture the Parisian spirit, and a wine list with a mix of hand-selected French and Australian wines, youâve got the buzz of Paris in the heart of Sydn
Whole John Dory did not have a lot of bones apart from the ones in the middle, donât know how they did it! Duck leg was tasty. Chicken liver pate was so tasty, we wanted to lick the jar. Crepe Suzette was epic with the fire display and tasty too. Friendly staff. Beautiful decor and lighting. Enjoyable!

French born Marc Kuzma AKA Claire de Lune, has created a traditional French Brasserie menu with a few modern twists. Claire has decorated the venue with fabulous imported wall papers, antiques and chic furniture. Business partner, Valentin has hand picked
Thereâs a collective intake of breath in the intimate dining room when everyone opens their menus. Fanning out like piano accordions, each menuâs glowing white light captures guestsâ faces in a state of childlike wonder as they scratch their heads and wonder what it is theyâre meant to eat. Eat the pages of the menu? Itâs rather absurd, but then so is the nonsensical and satirical movement Le Salon DadA is based upon. Being familiar with Marc Kuzmaâs work at El'Circo at Slide, I entered Claireâs Kitchen at Le Salon with a fair idea of what to expect. In this setting Kuzma (who is also known as Claire de Lune) has kicked things up to the next level using a City of Sydney night-time diversification grant. These monies are all about local council trying to restore some of Sydneyâs faded night-time glory, decimated by Gladys Berejiklianâs lockout laws. It's a perverse situation of local government giving what the state government has taken away.But I digress⦠Kuzmaâs resulting night, (which will set you back $140/head) is based upon Cabaret Voltaire, a Swiss enclave of artists escaping the First World War. DadA was anti-establishment, anti-reason and anti-logic. DadA was the antidote to the bourgeois capitalist interests that the artists believed had led people into war in the first place. Following this line, our first course takes curative form as a wartime first aid kid with tongue depressor, bandages and a petri dish containing a smooth French mushroom parfait topped with sauternes jelly. Scraped onto crackers, itâll sustain you through your cocktail construction â the recipe and ingredients are in your bucket.With shiso leaf-infused vodka, nettle liqueur and pomegranate cordial, itâs a tangy, slightly more sophisticated Cosmopolitan with little blasts of sweetness when the pearls of passionfruit and lime pop on your tongue. The rest of your boozing is done in the usual fashion, with many wines - including the 2017 Cave de Turckheim Pinot Blanc ($70/bottle) we selected - available by glass, carafe and full bottle. The fresh, dry white wine proves easy to enjoy through some on-stage art that sees a semi-nude model enhanced with the f-holes from a cello, and some at-the-table card tricks. Itâs a multimedia affair, with German expressionist film, The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari (1920), playing on screens placed throughout the dining room. Seen through the eyes of an asylum patient, the film may leave you wondering whatâs real and whatâs not.Contortionist Jade Twist continues our surrealist descent by wearing a black zentai suit with eyes and lips in all the wrong places. Tying herself in knots until she looks like a human pretzel, Twist makes it hard to know which way is up, and which direction way is forward. It's a perfect segue to a course based upon The Persistence of Memory (1931), arguably Salvador Daliâs most famous surrealist work. From the edge of a martini glass, his melting pocket watch drips in cracker form to accompany a well-spiced cold capsicum and tomato soup. Your soup is poured from a vessel that is itself a nod to Daliâs 1972 piece, Marilyn Monroe, shown up on the screens.Itâs this attention to detail that makes Kuzmaâs night so intellectually rich for art-lovers, with clever details like Marcel Duchampâs Bicycle Wheel (1913) in the stairwell on the way up to the dining room. Even the table setting is done in the style of DadA, down to a DadA print cloth serviette. Without wanting to give it all away, the next course â the only hot course - a rainbow trout roulade, is a nod to Joan Miró. Everything on the splattered abstract plate is edible, down to the crisp fish bones.On the stage, the inimitable Shauna Jensen is clad in a thematic âsinging fishâ (one of Miroâs recurring motifs) kaftan, as she belts out Ella Jenkins' Wade in the Water. Jensen returns later in the evening with This Is Me from The Greatest Showman. It's guaranteed to leave you uplifted â from her talented lips the power balladâs lyrics sound inspirational rather than twee. Kuzma has been booking cabaret acts for decades and has a real eye for talent, as youâll no doubt discover across the night.Le Salon DadA is a rich and punny, multimedia experience that will appeal to all of your senses. âJust like the painting, there is no confusion, it is designed to put in your mouth,â Kuzma finishes.Le Salon DadA takes place on Sunday evenings at Claire's Kitchen at le Salon. Bookings are essential.
