A bistro must be welcoming - with honest food and great wine. Those are the things we all love.” - Fabien Striet (Head Chef) and Nazzareno Falaschetti (Restaurant Manager) At Bistro Français, we believe French food shouldn’t be reserved for special occasions. Our menu of classic dishes is prepared to authentic recipes, alongside a few modern takes and seasonal specials. We offer wines sourced from French regions, and a handful of local producers. Share a meal with us any Tuesday to Sunday.

    The 50 dollar steak was cooked in too much butter and it was extremely fatty. It was too expensive for what we got. Normally you would get bread for free but here they charge 12 dollars for a few pieces. The wines were good. The service was below average.

    Another wonderful evening at Bistro Francais! ❤️ Sitting outside in the heat drinking Vin Rosé d'Aix and eating delicious French 🇫🇷 Cuisine reminded me of my trip to Aix-en-Provence in August! Merci!!!

    The food was delicious! My family ordered the crispy duck, the rataouille, steak, and beef bourguignon for mains. The escargot, french bread, and souffle, for starters to share. The escargot was great, very tasty (and actually better than the one I tried in Paris!) The crispy duck took me back to Paris, the ratatouille was also very yummy!

    As always, Bistro Francais was a delight. So many exquisite flavours masterfully prepared, beautifully presented, and served with care and attention in a charming setting. No textures or tastes are overbearing, everything works together in wonderful harmony. It was our fourth visit to what is definitely our favourite restaurant and by quite some margin. This time was thanks largely to a most thoughtfully gifted voucher. Already looking forward to our next visit.

    Another very enjoyable evening at BF. Great food and service as always. We sat at the very back for the first time and it was so great to look at all the buzz. Always so happy when having a night with friends here
