Bouillon L'Entrecôte

Our second visit to Bouillon L’Entrecôte somehow managed to surpass the first—an impressive feat in itself. From the moment we arrived, everything felt effortlessly exceptional. The staff are nothing short of phenomenal: warm, attentive, and genuinely passionate about what they do, striking that perfect balance between professionalism and hospitality. The atmosphere is flawless—buzzy yet intimate, refined without ever feeling stiff—and contributes beautifully to the overall experience. A particularly special touch was being seated at the very same table as our first visit—something we didn’t request, but a wonderful and unexpected surprise that made the evening feel personal and memorable. Most importantly, the food is outstanding. This is some of the best French cooking we’ve experienced, and that’s saying a lot after extensive travel throughout France. Confident, classic, and deeply satisfying, every dish reminds you why French cuisine is so revered. Bouillon L’Entrecôte is the kind of place that doesn’t just meet expectations—it quietly exceeds them, again and again. A rare gem, and one we’ll return to without hesitation.

Great authentic french food. The duck confit is definitely our favorite. It’s juicy and has a crunch. The potato puree is perfect. Definitely recommend adding his dish!! The Today, Our Charcoal Grilled Dry Aged 60 days+Striploin on the Bone is superb. Simply delicious and you will want to come back for more:) the apple dessert was a beautiful taste in our mouth. I mean you can describe it as beautiful firework of wonder. The French onion soup was okay. The tartar was a wonderful dish that is good size. The sandwich was good but order medium for the meat temperature. Definitely great place and expensive. The caviar is just right and served with toasted bread.

A good evening spent down at this little restaurant. Gradually trying out all the French restaurants in Sydney. :) Not a great start with a very loudly laughing patron at another table.. ...but not too much to be done there. Impressive and very French menu. Our eyes drawn instantly to the foie gras pôelé. One starter chosen. I noticed the prawn vol au vent and that was the second in the bag. Mains were both the dry aged striploin. The starters arrived pretty quickly. Both were fantastic. The prawn vol au vent surrounded by a rich bisque was outstanding. The foie gras was beautifully seared and resting on top of a well toasted brioche alongside it's accompaniments. Unctuous doesn't quite describe this. The combination of the incredients and the mouth-feel was just sensational. Starters done, it was on to the mains. Not too much to describe here. Very well cooked, good quality steak alongside some equally well cooked, well seasoned frites. Simple. Executed perfectly. We soldiered on and decided to try some desserts. Some of the largest profiteroles I've had (and Ive had a few in my time) and a Baba au Gueridon. Both were excellent. The profiteroles were light, the pastry just right, the vanilla ice cream tasty and the chocolate sauce rich and luxurious. The baba was light and the rum syrup sweet and alcoholic enough to bring a big smile to my face. The only downside to the whole thing was that the tables for two feel cramped rather than intimate. Definitely somewhere to come back to.. ...there are still so many starters to try!

Great experience and service, food was delicious. Would get the grilled sirloin over the aged strip loin. The sirloin was a bit more fatty and the candle underneath kept the food nice and warm. And the sauce - wow. Also escargots were nice, the baguettes delicious and the butter that accompanied it was on point. The French cider was delicious and the crème brûlée had a lovely balance of everything. Not too sweet.

Nice authentic French restaurant. The duck and foie gras were really good but beef cheek was rather salty and sirloin a bit dry and overcooked. Space was rather cramped and they gave us a small square table for 3 adults so the experience wasn't good. They missed one of our orders although it wasn't busy at that time. Hope all these can be improved.

You know a restaurant is a gem when even their 3 ingredient side salad is to die for. First time there and we were so impressed by everything - the fact that all staff are French speaking was one of the highlights. Not to mention the food- we ordered scallop pastry, the onion soup, and the beef tartar for starters and mains was the sirloin steak. Each and every dish was outstanding in flavor and presentation. Staff were very attentive, service prompt and the music divine. Thank you so much and we’ll be back for sure!

4.9/5 I went here with a friend to celebrate my birthday and even though I marked the occasion as a birthday through the booking, it was never acknowledged by staff. Not a big deal as the atmosphere and food blew me away more-so than my birthday. Our highlight for entree was definitely the Les Escargots, never tasted anything else quite like this that we still talk about this dish even after the dinner! The wait onto mains took some time coming out so we ordered some drinks and I had a La Vie en Rose mocktail which was very aromatic and tasted superb. The presentation of our sirloin was beautiful with a candle underneath to keep the food warm while we take our time to enjoy everything else. Any dish that came with the signature green sauce, we knew were good and not to disappoint us. One of my favourite french cuisine restaurants in Sydney, hoping to come back soon as I want to try out more items on the menu!

I had the pleasure of dining at this French restaurant over the weekend, and it was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we walked in, the warm and welcoming atmosphere set the tone for an unforgettable evening. The menu was beautifully curated, offering a perfect balance of classic French flavours and creative touches. Every dish we tried was cooked to perfection — rich, flavorful, and elegantly presented. The escargot, and steak was an absolute standout, bursting with authentic taste that transported me straight to France. The service was equally impressive. The staff were attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely passionate about ensuring we had a memorable experience. Nicholas was our main waiter, and his recommendations were spot-on and made the evening even more enjoyable. What really made the night special was the overall ambience. Whether it was the charming décor, the intimate lighting, or the subtle background music, everything came together to create a dining experience that felt refined yet comfortable. This is easily one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time, and I cannot wait to return. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy authentic French cuisine with impeccable service.
