"Restaurant Hubert opened in Sydney in 2016, but it feels like it’s been there for much longer. Make your way down a set of stairs into this underground cavern and you’ll think you’re in a mansion hidden somewhere in Europe. The space is split into a cocktail bar and dining room, where you’ll eat comforting French food like steak tartare with fries, chicken fricassee, and crème caramel. It’s hard not to love this one." - caroline clements 33

"As part of the founders’ credibility, this French restaurant in Sydney won an award for best new restaurant in the local paper in 2016 and—though French—is described as being more inspired by New York City French restaurants than those in Paris." - Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya

"Opened in Sydney in 2016, Restaurant Hubert quickly became a hotspot with a menu from star Australian chef Daniel Pepperell, who spent time working in New York at David Chang’s Momofuku Ssäm Bar." - Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya

"Chef Dan Papperell gives classic French food a modern twist at Hubert, where snails are served with the house XO sauce, duck parfait comes with maple syrup jelly, and a side of gratin is mixed with kimchi. Dinner and lunch is available à la carte or, if you have a minimum of four-people, family-style. It's best to come with a group and order the large, shareable plates like whole chicken with green garlic. Dinner reservations are available for six or more only, otherwise it’s first come, first served; any size group can reserve a table for lunch." - Sophie Davies

"This CBD spot is a modern take on the elegant eateries of the post-war era, complete with nostalgic décor of dark wood, velvet drapes, flickering lamps and tunes from a live jazz band. On the menu are classic French dishes – prime beef tartare, duck parfait, chicken fricassée – best enjoyed with a selection from the two-storey wine library, nestled within the opulent main dining room." - Gayatri Bhaumik
