    Excellent restaurant. It reminds me of a bistro in France. Atmosphere and service (including the food price point) is something that Double Bay really needed.

    Great experience for our team lunch. They had an issue with the pizza oven and called ahead of the booking to let us know and we were most happy to just have pasta and it was wonderful.

    This restaurant, just across the road from the beach, is an absolute winner on all fronts. We visited three times whilst staying in Bondi during our trip to watch the recent Ashes test in Sydney. The staff and service were unfailingly superb each and every time, and the food matched their care and welcome. The pho was delicious but we enjoyed everything we were served: food, cocktails, Clare Valley Riesling, and Hanoi beer. A gregarious , happy and very mixed clientele added to the ambiance. All in all a very well run place, with staff that took an interest in what they were serving and to whom. We shall miss it as we return to the cold of an English winter.
