Les Bistronomes - Canberra

We got through the 7 course degustation menu just! Excellent service, excellent food, excellent wine matching. The stand out dish was the caramelised onion consommé, followed by the Jindabyne rainbow trout. The restaurant was a bit hard to locate for us as visitors to Canberra, but once you step through the door you are met with a lovely decor with a few too many curtains.

Our dinner at Les Bistronomes was truly a treat, a perfect blend of excellent food and great service. The dishes were crafted with creativity and passion, combining traditional elements with fresh, innovative touches. A standout was the Beef Wellington, tender, full of flavours, and simply delicious and the Soup of Day , oh my Just divine ! The staff were very attentive and friendly, always ready to assist and offer advice about the menu. Their enthusiasm added an extra layer of enjoyment to our meal. Thanks!

We went with two friends for my husband's birthday ordered the $120 set menu and the matching $120 wines. Save for one course which none of us terribly liked everything was fantastic. The bread and butter were standout. The rillettes, Boursin, and duck liver parfait were excellent starters and we could have made an entire meal out of just these. The French onion soup was out of this world and the accompanying onion tart was outstanding (and I am not an onion tart fan usually . The leek ash salmon was VERY good. The beef cheek bourguignon was incredibly tasty and surprisingly light considering the dish and the ingredients. The palate cleanser was a standout course as well. Dessert (chocolate tart was very good though I didn't finish mine as the rich ingredients would have kept me awake later (but my dining companions happily finished off my leftovers! Overall, an amazing night out with good friends and great food. The staff without exception were friendly, professional, and attentive.

Seeking to impress a visitor from WA, I took them to lunch here on Friday. Needless to say, they were impressed. From the authentic French interiors to the delightful service, it was a pleasurable experience. We had a three course lunch, and were very satisfied with the fine detail of the presentation of every dish. Tiny micro herbs and flowers were used to their best effect. Gorgeous.

Beautiful meal and terrific service. The a la carte menu is a good choice great variety and good sized portions. The chateaubriand was perfectly cooked and to be recommended. I chose cheese for dessert but by that stage of the meal, couldn’t do it justice. I was too full!
