Found this gem through research…read more The food was well presented and more importantly they were all quite TASTY! It is French cuisine but they encourage to share food. It was perfect for us :) We had 5 people in total and ordered a lot of food. Total 12 dishes on the menu plus 5-6 deserts. We ended ordering almost all dishes. 4 entrees and 5 mains and 2 desserts. Entree 1. Chicken liver 2. Scollops 3. Pumpkin 4. Custard Main 1. Omelette 2. Chicken ( quite good and crispy kale leaves was amazingly good ) 3. Duck leg ( not on the menu and it was a bit dry) 4. Steak and fries ( yummy fries and texture of the meat was amazing ) 5.gnocchi and pork Dessert 1. Chocolate mousse 2. Caramel and coffee custard The place is located inside of a hotel and the entrance is via the hotel lobby. There was also outdoor sittings and I cannot help to imagine how nice it would be in Summer to just sit outside and have a nice meal here. ( today was super cold maybe this is what made me miss summer already ) I was too full so had to get a long black to go with desserts. It was amazing tooooo. How lovely and nice little surprise to know they care about the coffee too ! Who would thought of that ! But they did ! I was so happy to end the meal with that coffee and beautiful sweets. Last but not least , service ! I love talking about experience and service. I think it is one thing which makes a difference between one place to another . It also tells people a lot about the owner of the business . It was great service and better than a lot of places and compare to some well known fine dining they had some outstanding services. However I personally felt it can be even better, the lady who severed our table put my main dish knife onto this cabbage that was dropped when we were eating entree. I had to move it .... And when each of us were thanking her for pouring water and etc , she was not responding to all of our appreciation . she would skip and just say you are welcome to some people at our table . I know I am picky Overall! Amazing !

Maybe it is the rustic wooden counters separate the open kitchen with the pizza and wood burning open fire cooking. We were told that the half chicken is a signature dish and yes, it is moist and cooked perfectly. The spanner crab omelette with lobster bisque on top is rich and decadent. There are many wine by the glass options, which we gladly took advantage of to try different glass side by side. The service is impeccable: friendly, knowledgeable and attentive- that id why this restaurant gets booked out weeks in advance!

What a surprise. We…read morewanted a late lunch, and arrived about 15 mins before end of service. Our expectations were not high, and the "Fish Of The Day" had a fairly hefty price tag for a pub lunch,($28.00) My friend ordered a burger, and admitted she is not a burger fan ordinarily. The food arrived, and to be honest, it looked pretty basic. My Barramundi looked like it had been over cooked, and was presented on a mountain of french fries, with an uninspired salad beside it. Sue's burger looked like a burger to me, which never excites me. We were wrong. The fish was cooked to perfection, harsh searing on top and bottom, but perfectly flaky, juicy flesh inside. The fries were crisp, the salad was forgettable. Sue claimed that her burger may have been the best she had ever eaten. It's nothing sensational, and I am sure locals would know better spots for the money, but the way that fish was cooked won me. No, I wouldn't go back. Rushed, panicked and neglectful service in an almost empty bar, average decor and feel to the place, but, hey, they can cook fish and burgers.

I recommend checking out this fine dining restaurant. Service was unobtrusive and professional…read more Salmon entrée was delicious. Friends had soufflé and scallops for entrees and enjoyed them. I had minute steak for main which was tender and juicy. My brother enjoyed his pork chop while 3 others enjoyed the duck. Desserts were splendid. The soufflé was top shelf.

Interesting joint especially when it says it's been established since 1967? Wonder if it's always…read morebeen at the same place? You walk in and it's dim. There's around 8 tables upstairs and prob just double that downstairs. The menu is quite limited and instantly you're struct by it's relatively high pricing with the average main to be around $35-$40. There's a special blackboard menu which the waitress presents and explains what each item is (most are in French). Food came out fairly quick and we had the duck liver pate, beef bourguignon and cassoulet. It was my first time having the bourguignon and really had no expectation and my friend said "OMG" and I trust his "OMG" to mean Awesome! He also said the cassoulet wasn't too bad either! Oh and the pate had this hard butter looking layer which we removed (friend said it was lard) which then turned out to be butter (lol...). The place need more ambience and vibe to attract me to go again so until I try another French restaurant I'll stick to this place. But probably not for another good few months.

A couple of my friends recently returned from Sydney, and they said if there was only one place…read morethey suggest I go to eat - it was Restaurant Hubert. Specifically the happy hour. So I did! They don't take reservations for their 5-6pm happy hour. You can only line up at 5pm when they open. We got there right before 5pm, and there were probably 10 to 12 people in line. Once the doors opened we were led downstairs to the bar area. It's a very dark, and feels like you've been transported to another time and place. We decided to try one of each of the food items on the happy hour: - Duck Parfait - Good. Classic French item and they do it well. - Brandade d'anguilles fumée - OK. I know it's eel, but wasn't very distinct from any other fish. My least favourite dish. - Saucisson Sec - Good. Simple. - Fleur de Courgette - Very good. Delicate and delicious. I should've ordered two of these. - Normandy Burger - Very good. The one item my friends raved about, and it was clear why. A burger with the best ingredients is hard to matched. I got the extra side of fries which is equally good. Best dish of the meal. Service was relatively good, except at one point they asked if I wanted mayo for my fries (very French) and I said yes, but it never came. Other than that, quite good. This was easily my favourite meal of my trip, holding up to high expectations. I would return on my next trip to Sydney.

I have dreams of Restaurant Hubert's Chicken Fricassée…read more Note: Happy Hour is walk-in only from 5PM - 6PM. We came on a Thursday evening and there was a line inside prior to opening. I highly recommend getting here early to get a seat during Happy Hour and stay after to enjoy some live jazz after 6PM. The restaurant was easy to locate with a sign upfront. The entrance is just a door in the wall with spiraling stairs leading you to an underground jazz bar and restaurant. It's upscale and romantic, but several other people were dressed casually. We sat on a shared table with three other strangers until we ordered off the full menu and our Chicken Fricassée arrived. The service is top notch and everyone was attentive, polite, and kind. We started off with the happy hour menu and ordered the Duck Parfait. I didn't know what to expect. The croutons were crispy and delicate and the duck liver was easy to spread and airy. The Normandy Burger was juicy and the bread was fluffy. But the star of the night Chicken Fricassée - wow! Incredibly tender, juicy, and garlicy. The sauce had a mashed potato buttery, smooth texture. Absolute must get.
