A packed restaurant on a Saturday night we had no booking, however they fit us in with ease. Great service and food. Recommend the Crab Lasagne. The trifle desert was huge, I would recommend sharing with someone.

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.

A light modern space with views of Barangaroo. Delicious combinations involving smoked eggplant salad,lentil kofte,haloumi with honey dressing. Delicate and very fresh seafood. Sensational char grilled calamari, snapper on the bone. Grilled octopus with warm salsa - make sure you ask for chocolate hu'mousse. I've never seen anything like it!Interesting wine list with a mix of Turkish wines with a good selection by the glass. Plating was sophisticated and stylish. There is room for service to improve.Much higher quality than many "multi hatted" places I've been and better value.

Who would have thought, A french Bistro in traditional Italian area of Sydney.We had been meaning to try this Bistro for quite some time and finally got there.Menu is full of classics. We opened with the onion soup and steak tartare both dishes ticked the box. For mains we had Beef Bourguignon and the Duck Cassoulet. The beef was as expected as was the Duck, however the duck was a bit skimpy on the beans, chorizo and gravy. $9 for a side of veggies was not value for money.Deserts were great and the 3 cheeses we had were ripe and well presented.Service staff were knowledgeable. The restaurant has a nice ambience

I bought a Groupon but I was due to get deployed and they were happy to still honour it 5 months past the expiration date. When we arrived our waiters were professional yet unobtrusive. Decor and ambience were just perfect. The food itself was so good myself and my 5 guests pretty much licked the plates clean. My beef fillet with the wine jus was tender and flavoursome and the sticky date pudding was amazing. We are already planning on going back with or without a Groupon! There is a reason why they are rated so highly and have a great reputation...the customer service is of a high standard.

we had a combined room/dinner package. The atmosphere of the restaurant was small and cosy but the other people never felt intrusive. The staff were excellent and nothing was too much of a problem for them. Menu was interesting and well thought out in that the portions were such that you could share easily because of the way they were prepared. Also i felt the pricing very reasonable including the drinks.

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.
