France Soir

If you look through my other reviews I have been on the hunt for Melbourne's best steak and ladies and gentlemen we have a winner! From the size of the steak to how it was cooked, absolute perfection! It melted in my mouth with every bite.. I could not ask for anymore. The sides were absolutely delicious, we went as a group so we were able to order a few at a time. The service was excellent also, all the waiters were french and the whole ambience really made you feel like you were in Paris. If you're looking for a perfect steak 🥩 then this is the place for you.

Nostalgically French! Great vibe created by the chatter of a full restaurant. Each meal we ordered seem to get better as the courses went on. Muscles and prawns were a stand out! Snails are definitely worth a try… extremely flavoursome and not what you would think a snail would taste like. Champaign was brilliant, followed by a top bottle of red, on the pricy side though. Dessert had a good array of choice, we got them all and shared 👌🏻

Classic French dining experience - a little bit chaotic but with great vibes. Most of the dishes we tried were great, except for the steak that came slightly undercooked. Crème brûlée was fantastic though ❤️ the drinks list is so huge, it weighs like a dictionary. Overall it was a great experience, the sounds absorbing boards work very well.

After visit couple times I notice that the quality of the service was not the same standard as before, ordered 6 oyster come 5 only, want to tell waiter but they rarely have eye contact with customer, instead, they chatting with each other behind the bar. Only good thing is their dessert still yummy as before. They should train their staff stop force to ask tip from customer especially after provide the service which is not worth to tip.

Absolutely classic French restaurant that has been an established bistro for many years. The interiors and atmosphere were fabulous & relaxed. The service was spectacular….Playful and sassy, very effrontée! And the food was divine. They also have an extensive wine list to match. Highly recommend ….this joint as its a must visit! Will definitely be back. OUI!

The food speaks for itself! If you’ve missed travelling these last 2 ½ years, be confident in knowing that you don’t have to leave the country to feel like you’re in Paris. Sitting in the window on a typical Melbourne Wet Winter Saturday. Getting lost in conversation with friends you haven’t seen. Some restaurants you can not hear the person you are talking to, not here, you could be forgiven in thinking you’re the only one dining. The soft mutterings of French accents in the background are the attentive staff. Perfectly curating the dining experience. The Demi caneton rôti à l'orange and Demi poulet fermier rôti were amazing. What takes the dish to another level is the mashed potato and sautéed mushrooms. Absolutely worth every mouthful of guilty pleasure. When you think you can not possible have any more…… the profiteroles au chocolat balances everything. Great potion sizes. No rushing you through lunch to turn the tables over. I understand why this is so many peoples go to restaurant. Make sure you book well ahead of time.

Had a great lunch experience here. It was busy and full but The staffs were very welcomed and tried their best to get us table ( we didn't make reservation unfortunately). We started with coffee. I got cappucino ( with an extra Chantilly cream on the side to get my French cappuccino experience perfect ). Don't ask for almond or soy latte. It's French restaurant 😃 . Coffees served with warm buguttee and French butter. We really enjoy it while waiting for our Èntree.We got half dozen white wone oyster for Èntree and it was fresh and tasty. The oyster is open once you ordered it.its gone in second. We ordered Veal Cutlet & beef casserole for main dishes . It's a big portion. Beef casserole was fantastic. It's tender and flavour black soupy. Just a perfect winter dish. My veal cutlet was cooked medium rare in perfect way. Both are cooked with mushrooms. This place is very comfy, hommy and yummy. The staff is very friendly. I love the French environment when they speak in French to some customers. We miss Paris , but can't fly there yet. So that's the reason we came here. And we got what we wanted. Not only a fantastic food. But also a very nice environment and all the people there. Definitely will keep coming back and make a booking beforehand. Merci beacoup Fance-Soir team .
