Bistro Thierry delivered a great experience for our special occasion. Met warmly at the door, we were shown to a good table and assisted with some parcels and jackets. We had actually looked at the online menu (both food and wine) and decided what we wanted, so ordering was easy. Drinks were served quickly and with friendly efficiency. The fit out of Thierry's is something of a draw card in itself - certainly takes you to Paris! Our food was top quality - particularly the lamb shoulder: melt in the mouth texture. I can see why it is rated so highly, and would certainly support that.We are delighted to hear you enjoyed your BT experience. Customer satisfaction is our number one goal so it is great to learn this has been achieved on this occasion. We look forward to welcoming you back. Merci beaucoup!

Bistrot d'Orsay has been situated in picturesque Collins Street for 20 years, in an area regarded as the âParis Endâ. The interior is instantly evocative of the French capital with trompe lâoeil ceiling and a towering vintage French poster adorning the di

We have waited ages to return and now know why. Beautiful ambiance, friendly, warm and professional French staff. Delicious food and as you would expect a great wine list. This really like being back in Paris for us. We shared the charcuterie platter (note the Chicken Liver pate was sublime). I went for the lamb special while the man did the beef. We unashamedly shared the pear tarte tatin and a lovely dessert wine. Could not have been happier

Chez Olivier at its new location is really singing! Our experience was great from beginning to end. Service is efficient and timely and very friendly (all the waiting staff had a smile ready). An interesting menu: we had a goats cheese entre wrapped in filo surrounded by a light salad, followed by the confit of duck. Both were delicious and well balanced. The wine list was adequate, although I would have expected to see a few more Burgundy wines on the list. No table cloths but it did have cloth napkins. The restaurant was very popular on the night we were there, and rightly so. A top destination.

We were a party of 14 for dinner with a pre-arranged (smaller) menu.For my starter I ate the Ora king salmon mariné gravlax with fennel and beetroot salad and walnut mayonnaise. Fine salmon, delicately pickled baby beetroot and subtle mayonnaise. Splendidly balanced and delicious.For mains I had Gold band snapper, with a safron risotto galette and asparagus fumet. The flavours on the plate were to die for - and more pearls of flavour than listed on the menu. Fish skin crusted and seasoned perfectly. We who ordered this all coo-ed throughout the eating.Chou profiterole for desert, with hazlenut praliné cream, yuzu, and praliné ice-cream. Unexpected orange accents throughout. Refined and delicious.Vegetarian colleague had fixed starter and main and choice of desert. Whilst the usual suspects were there (asparagus followed by gnocchi), the treatments, flavours and plating were anything but. One of our diners is allergic to olive oil and that was catered for.An excellent wine list and attentive service.Very slow delivery of the first course - 60 minutes from ordering to first plates; we all went through two rounds of sliced baguettes and butter - makes this a 4 rather than 5 star rating. Be warned: steep flight of stairs down from ground-floor entrance and no lift.Highly recommended. I will return.

A small, but outstanding restaurant with some interesting ideas on modern French food. The table service was top-notch and whilst the food wasn't cheap, it represented good value for money. Wine selection was also first class and suggestions made by the waiter regarding which wines to have with our meals were considered and worthwhile. This establish is well worth a visit- go ahead and book it!

Back in Melbourne for a visit, we definitely had to go eat at the Roule Galette again. Our meals were as fabulous as in the previous year. :-) Perfectly prepared galettes (= the savoury variety made with buckwheat) and crepes (= the sweet ones), friendly and prompt service, pleasant atmosphere. Merci beaucoup!

The lunch & dinner menus also looked very interesting and I hope to get back here to explore the food offering further.Service was excellent, from the moment we entered until we left. My coffee was a step above the norm too.Well priced and a fascinating space, well worth the visit.
