Had such a wonderful experience at Hubert! The venue itself is stunningly beautiful, the music and lighting perfectly set the tone. The staff were friendly and attentive, attention was welcome and not over powering; most importantly wine was regularly topped up! The food was also incredible; parfait and tartare to start and the fish and spicy kimchi for main- everything was delicious! Is a perfect spot for a date night. Special shout out to Elise she was incredible she even gave us a little tour of the venue at the end of our meal! More

Seiōbo was an incredible and memorable dining experience! From start to finish the staff was welcoming, knowledgeable and accommodating. One of our diners is allergic to onion and garlic and they went above and beyond to provide a beautiful meal almost identical to the normal menu for her needs. They also helped to accommodate her need for disabled access at a table. It was a vibrant 4-course pre theatre dinner that none of us will forget! More

I've visited a few times recently after maybe a gap of 10 years and it's back to what I experienced before - a very relaxing place. The food is better than good, the wines well selected and the wait staff actually seem to enjoy their work which contributes to the relaxing atmosphere. Besides, a walk through the gardens is in itself a brilliant experience. I think it's quite a special place away from the "busyness" of today's Sydney More

This was our second lunch in a week. The steak and barramundi were very nice. It is a nice quiet place with excellent service. More

My wife and I went for Valentines Day. We really enjoyed the experience overall. Food was excellent as was the service. The restaurant was very tastefully fitted out in a true French Bistro style. Even the bill was surprisingly a lot less than we expected for a restaurant of that calibre. I have no hesitation in recommending Bistro Guillaume for a dinner date, special occasion or that important business dinner or lunch. Well done! More

Great cocktails, great staff and service. Tartare was excellent. Other dishes were ok. Great vibes but I was secretly hoping for New York style speakeasy - this was more of a noisy / busy Sydney cocktail bar. More

Perfect for our pre opera dinner. Great value for money, efficient service and 10% reduction for Opera subscribers. More
OpenTable Diner -
Overall food is great, with membership card the price is good for group dining (if you do multiple times a year) too. Without membership card it appears over priced for overall services you get, that's why 4* for value. For some reason I never get a window side table (about 8 times) that's why I chose 3* for service. More
OpenTable Diner -
This is a lovely restaurant with great service. The wait staff and wine steward were fantastic. I felt the menu was over priced across the board, for what you receive. I had the Zuppe di Pesce and the shrimp was over cooked and dry, which seemed odd because the calamari in the dish was not. The sourdough bread was fantastic. The burrata starter was great, perfectly ripened tomatoes and burrata that melted in your mouth. More
OpenTable Diner -
Excellent simple and distinctive Italian food in a unpretentious room- felt like being in Milan- with people passing by outside along Ash St. Plus the kitchen closes late. Best gnocchi I've ever had here or in years travelling in Italy. Great wine list and informed and specialist service. Molto sofisticato. More

訪れる人の多くが評価する如く、店の雰囲気も良く、上品な雰囲気でした、受付、案内、注文取りと全て心地良い対応でした、何故か度々”水”を進められました、水の価格と他の飲物との差額が少ない為、我々家族（4名）は一貫してアルコールの注文に終始しました。メインの肉も大変美味しく、前日その後数日の間に食べたシドニー、ケアンズのどの店より美味しかったです。 More

The restaurant is impossible to find without assistance, as it can only be reached by walking through another restaurant. The host had no record of our OpenTable reservation but still seated us promptly. Curiously, despite lamentations that our surprise presence created an oversold situation, more than one table remained empty for the duration of our stay. Once seated, service was adequate but less attentive than expected given the price range. We would've purchased at least two more glasses of wine had they noticed our empty glasses earlier. The food was eclectic and artistic and satisfying. A pleasant evening, nonetheless. More
