Comments of Friends Restaurant
A. M.
We had the decadent degustation and it was sensational. The staff were very attentive and friendly but not to the level where we were constantly interrupted. Food was amazing.
G. R.
Couldn't have chosen a better place to celebrate my wedding anniversary;
Food - Amazing
Staff - Amazing
Ambient - Amazing
Chefs did an absolute outstanding job, couldn't believe the authenticity and quality of the food, for every single course of the 8 we had, simply splendid.
S. G.
Went there with my partner Friday night and had the 8 course tasting menu.
Flavours, quality and presentation of all dishes was exceptional.
Front of house staff where clearly formally trained in the art of fine dining and service which was fantastic to see.
The young Filipino waitress was absolutely fantastic, both myself and my partner are in the hospitality industry and we both agreed it was amazing to see someone still with passion for front of house service, not to many of them are left around.
I was slightly disappointed to see such a high end fine dining restaurant allowing customers to sit down for dinner in shorts and a singlet and another couple came in, in gym wear. All in all food and service was great
B. H.
Friends restaurant has always been a favourite. From it’s origins in the Swan Valley until it’s current location, it is an excellent place to celebrate any special occasion. The food is superb, the wine list is amazing, the service is excellent and the staff are friendly. A wonderful fine dining experience!
K. T.
Recently celebrated my 70th birthday with 14 friends and family in the private room, so glad we chose this restaurant, everything was perfect. Venue, food and staff were all top notch, everyone had a great night. Truly a night to remember thanks to the owners and staff.
K. C. S.
Friends Restaurant is still one of the best in Perth. The quality is maintained at the finest level. Well done. I will be back every year.
J. M.
Amazing food, excellent quality. Chef's table and 5 course degustation was so good, as was the wine advice and the service. It's no wonder the owners Clive and Leslie are still in business after all these years and still working their restaurant. They made our whole family of 11 evening a fantastic experience and we will return for sure. Thankyou.
C. R.
THE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE.
When we arrived we were welcomed with a warm beautiful greeting, we were amazed by how nice the staff are, so caring and friendly.
The food was absolutely incredible we were 3 of us and each one ordered different steak and they were all delicious. The starters are unique and well-presented. All tastes delicious. The service was beyond any words can describe, definitely one of THE best experiences of Perth. Let’s not forget about the other aspects such as cleanliness which was 10/10 and art and architecture 10/10 in particular the big painting on the wall. Stunning.
L. E.
Absolutely amazing in every way!! The food was divine!! We had the 8 course meal it was 100% worth it all the dishes were cooked perfectly some of the best food we have had especially the lamb rack. The service was lovely everyone was so kind and welcoming. Will definitely be going again.
C. d. H.
Amazing food and service. Love the fact that the waitpeople don't interrupt you, and are friendly but not familiar. You come to Friends for the food and experience. The lobster tonight was superb.
A. H.
Last night was definitely an experience for my partner and myself. We had never been to fine dining/ high class restaurant before, we felt so out of place BUT the food was amazing. My partner had the lobster 🦞 and I had the kangaroo. We were given a few complimentary appetisers. Highlight was the soft shell crab 🦀 appetiser. We also ordered the abalone starter which was nice.
The wine selection is incredible. My partner wishes you to extended you whiskey range.
Staff were friendly and professional. The trainee that was on was doing a wonderful job. Good to see other staff who were training her be patient and help her.
Would definitely come back.
J. F.
Thankyou Friends was an amazing lunch! Thankyou Katie our cheeky wonderful waitress!!! To the chef and crew you guys are incredible thanks for the beautiful degustation lunch we had a fun time experiencing your magic! Will be back shortly 😎 Paul an Jo xx

Friends Restaurant is a good restaurant which is worth a visit.
Food: 5 out of 5. The food is nice, not to say amazing, but it is good enough to give five star. The taste of the spatchock is delicate. From my personal experience, I think the cooking of the steak is better than the Meat & Wine's. Soufflé is not a bad choice for the dessert after the dinner.
Environment: 5 out of 5. The dinning environment is good. It could be a romantic place for couples to have a dating.
Service: 4.5 out of 5. For few times at that evening, I waited for a bit long (sometimes the waitress did not see me), the reason might be I was sitting at the corner next to the wall.
Cleanliness: 4 out of 5. There was some wall dust on the seat, probably because I sat close to the wall. At the beginning, there was some stains on one of the forks. Need to improve on cleanness.
Overall, the restaurant deserves visiting for diners.
Q. C.
Such an amazing experience!
This is our first time to Perth and the service of this restaurant made us felts so nice and warm.
They gave us a wonderful surprise with the awesome “bonus dessert”, and their boss gave us two flowers when he was on the way to open the door for us.
You must try this restaurant when you are in Perth!
A. P.
It was awesome. We had the five course meal and every dish was perfect. The staff are super friendly and the owner kept checking in on us to see how we were liking the food.
H. S.
This is my favourite restaurant in Perth. It is always great service here as is the food. We did the truffle degustation which did not disappoint. The only gripe I could have is there was not enough sauce with the main but I didn't ask for more. Matching wines are always lovely here too.
M. v. d. M.
I absolutely have to give them a 5! During the whole evening there was something about portion sizes that bothered me, but with each new course and matching wine (we had the decadent degustation menu), I was blown away again with a taste sensation that surprised us so much, that the previous niggle about portion size was just forgotten.
I was so impressed that I thought I will wait for two days before writing this to see if I change my mind on the rating, but no...it has to be a 5!!
Stunning evening with "Friends" - the kind that take your money but gives you sooo much more in return!
J.
Really nice restaurant, maybe the best one in Perth
F. S. W.
The best restaurant in the city. Food is prepared with perfection. Taste and visual are divine. My favorite place to celebrate important dates with family. Friendly staff who go extra mile to accommodate special needs. There is a lift for wheelchairs or walkers. A place to enjoy with time.
R. W.
Absolutely the finest dining in Perth.
The food is exquisite, tasty as well as being beautifully prepared and presented.
The highly trained and knowledgeable team along with the owners Clyde and Lesley will make you dining experience a memorable one.
It is no wonder that they have won so many awards and if you are lucky enough to attend any of the performances, by a plethora of musical identities, it will complete your evening.
Absolutely the best.
W. m.
We we’re walking through the city and felt hungry and decided to try Friends on Saturday night. I’m so happy we did!
We decided to try the set menu and were absolutely blown away with the quality of every one of the five courses. The barramundi was perfect, but the soufflé was out of this world. The service was unlike anything I’ve experienced in a long while. Delightful staff who truly enjoyed their work. Very rare! We will be regulars now. Could not recommend any higher. Thank you, Friends.
R. F.
Took my wife for her 40th Birthday with 4 friends and was blown away by how amazing it was. The food was to die for and the staff were soo welcoming and friendly, they made us feel like real VIPs. It's hard to beat this kind of hospitality. Unfortunately I can't give more than 5 stars.
B. E.
Went there for a degustation with some friends! Great food! Great wine! The staff were fantastic as well! Can't wait to go back again!
K. W.
Fine dining at its best. The atmosphere was great and the food was very nice.
I. L.
Great food and friendly service. We ordered the quail and scallop entries, pork belly and steak mains, and souffle dessert, all were scrumptious!
H. S. S.
Had a delightful dinner yesterday. Staffs were absolutely friendly and food was also great. A perfect place to celebrate a special day. I got a flower when leaving which made my day :) Lovely!
N. F.
I enjoyed a seafood degustation here recently. The food was all good, but wasn't bursting with flavour and the flavour combinations weren't very unique. The staff were quite friendly on arrival and departure, but the waitstaff did not give us the level of service I expected.
A. A.
Must visit!
Tasty, nice plating and generous.
I love with the wine list what they have.
The vibe and decoration looks elegant
The customer service was excellent.
S. D.
Had heard of, but never been. But booked in for our anniversary.
Wow!
6 course meal during truffle season.
Should have shared as the servings are substantial. Top quality, great service and excellent drink selection. Would highly recommend A++
J. K.
Incredible Restaurant, highly recommended going here, you won't be disappointed. Wine list is extensive (Although sadly they no longer cellar on site) and very reasonably priced. Great night had by all
K. S.
My partner and i had an absolutely stunning dinner here the food is amazing, the service is outstanding and the perfect view. I was even given a beautiful bouquet of roses when I was leaving which made a beautiful night even better! 11/10
J. K.
My partner and I decided to go to the Friends restaurant to celebrate a promotion. I have never experienced something so amazing. The food was breathtaking, the staff fabulous and the owner (I presume) is refreshingly genuine and created such a delightful atmosphere. Our experience was topped off with the staff bringing a ‘congratulations for the promotion’ dessert with a candle. I could not recommend enough.
M. L.
Great fine dining experience! Atmosphere is cool and staff are friendly and welcoming. This is place is pricey but you're paying for a fine dining experience
T. H.
Some fabulous food here, especially the wagyu, soup and various sauces. Generous with the truffles, but at times they didn't suit the dishes and got a bit much towards the end. Truffled ice cream...
Service is first class here, dishes come out as you're ready and the waiters don't hover.
Price is reasonable for the experience.
M. W.
Great food. Niice seafood. Lobster is fresh. Abalone is tender. Duck is good. Scallop was sooo yum. Drinks are great. Friendly staff. Pricey a bit overall. Good for celebration.
j. J.
🤤Man where to start.... fine dining 100%. Me and the ladies our bill was $500, I nearly fell over😵 because we had 5 course meal plus extras.
Each meal is fantastic small portions neat and tidy with flavours that Burst into your mouth, well done chef.
We had two waiters one serviced our food the other brought our drinks. be careful the wine glasses are the size of your head no joke.The waiters were so friendly and on point with service. Well done ladies.
And last what I admire about this restaurant is that non of the staff asked us the leave as they were closing up I mean they close at 1030pm and we stayed in there until 1130pm we didn't realise the time I had so many jin and toxics I forget where the exit was. APOLOGIES FOR THE LONG REVIEW GUYS THIS PLACE DESERVES IT!!! 6 STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
B. T.
Absolutely love this place, the food, the service and the quality is hard to fault.
Apparently its truffle time, so whats better than a 5 coarse degustation @friends_restaurant_perth
1. Cider and onion truffle soup. 😋 Delicious.
2. Truffle cured salmon, lemon and dill creme fraiche, wakame, toasted broche. 🥰👌 Incredible flavours
3. Beef bourguignon, mushroom and bacon, truffle mash potato, confit carrots, braised pickled onion and the beef was a super tender slow cooked beef cheeks. 🥰😋😁 Paired with a luscious Cabernet Sauvignon from Margaret river. 🍇🍷🍷♥️
4. Goat cheese and truffle, warmed blue cheese, onion and balsamic bread. 😋😋
5. Apple crumble souffle, Manjmump truffle ice-cream. 😋😊. This is best souffle I have ever had. 🙏. The service here is second to none, always fantastic. Thankyou for a great night.
s. g.
Great understanding staff, modified the set menus to accommodate allergies without any issue. Beautiful food, good portions well presented
L. M.
Incredible dinner here for Valentine's Day. We had a 3 course meal with canapes and soups additional. Such a terrific evening, I can't express enough how great the service, ambience and food was. It truly was a magical evening, putting this on the map as one of the best restaurants in Perth.
F. B.
I have absolutely no words for this restaurant. The service is absolutely amazing, the staff are extremely helpful and friendly and the food was out of this world. I highly recommend the Chicken option on the menu, you will not regret it. I have never had anything so buttery and soft. The soufflé was also incredible. If i could give this place more stars i would.
w. w.
One of the best food in Perth. One of the few fancy restaurants that give a decent portion sized dish. Lobster was amazing along with the duck. Lots of complimentary dishes! Overall great experience and wonderful birthday :)
j. p.
Our meal here was delightful! We had the 8 course degustation and the truffle degustation with paired wines.
Light hearted and unobtrusive staff, warm gentle lighting.
The food is very rich and punchy in flavors which I love.
Great for a special occasion with a loved one
K. W.
Our family had a wonderful night here, not only because the food was delicious, but mainly because the front of house staff were all terrific and really went out of their way to make sure the kids (and all of us) were comfortable and happy. It was never hard to catch someone's eye. So rare to find excellent service in Perth! Highly recommended.
A. B.
Excellent, fantastic food served professionally but without undue pretension, pleasant surprises in several dishes, Saturday menu incredible good value.
M. B.
The customer service is absolutely excellent. Their house made mushroom bread and other breads are awesome and the other dishes were delicious too.
M. F.
We came for a late lunch/early dinner and were absolutely delighted with the finest dining experience we have had in many years. The last time the food was this good was at the same restaurant when it was at the other end of town and I treated my mates to a $900 lunch. This place rocks. If you want the best come here and cut loose ... you will not be disappointed ... nay you will be delighted as we are every visit. 👍🥃🍾🍷🍹🍺🥤these guys know food and the dedication from the Chef to the wait staff is the best in Australia in my view!!💪💪💪
D. B.
This is definitely on the bucket list, somewhere between 1 and 3 of maybe 50 things that is so close and obtainable, sharing maybe with four or five others. Definitely with Jennifer and Courtney...
R. A.
Outstanding restaurant, very nice ambience and right in the centre of town. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone visiting or living in the CBD.
L. W.
The most amazing restaurant, outstanding friendly service to every detail.
The meals were not only made with perfect combination of fresh lovely ingredients and the way how it cook were perfect, the presentation was such lovely pieces of art.
They are also the wins & drinks expert!
And some days there are live band!
The atmosphere, food, drinks, the service are in the best quality you can ever expect!
It’s so fancy but everyone is so friendly and makes me felt so relaxed and enjoyable.
So spoiled with every single minute to be in Friends Restaurant.
The whole experience were memorable! Cannot recommend enough!
S. C.
Beautiful food and staff.
Definitely will be going back.
A. D.
Absolutely brilliant experience here yet again!
We had the 8 course degustation, with 5 star wine pairings. An incredible culinary experience, leaving us both completely satisfied, and tantalised!
Fantastic staff, fantastic venue, amazing food, and impeccable wine pairings!
C. T.
Went for birthday, fantastic service awesome 8 courses meal with wine.
P. Z.
Great service, and very interesting menu items. Highly recommended.
F. K.
We booked and told them about dietary requirements. They had a gluten free roll prepared for one guest and I am told it was delicious. The other courses were served with flair. My best dish was the aged beef - possibly the best I have had. My sister loved the soup. We will be back !!
S. H.
Leslie and Clyde are the most hospitable owners of a restaurant I've ever met and the friends family are my absolute favourite in Perth. Not only do you get high end customer service but it's so personal, my partner and I come here every so often and we are always remembered, they remember our favourite wine and favourite cocktails and it makes you feel special. The food is absolutely Devine, the setting is so romantic and the music puts you in a loving mood. I cant boast how amazing Friends is, you just have to do yourself a favour and visit, it's an experience you'll never forget.
I. L.
First visit to friends restaurant and I was supremely impressed. The food was fantastic and lovely. Complimentary appetisers were served, and I was also given some complimentary desserts for my birthday. Service was excellent - attentive without being intrusive. The decor and privacy of the dining area was also great. Enjoyed my visit very much and I will be back.

I was there. Ambience was not all that great. Food was great but still missing completeness. Ordered lamb shank and it did not come with any sides. just there in a large bowl. would have been nice with mash and steamed veges or somethin. not sure what it is but there is something missing from this place. just my 2 cents worth, i aint no foodie by any stretch!
T. N.
Friendly and professional service. Great for drinks or full service dining

Amazing night out to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Food was fantastic, beyond our highest expectations. Service and hosting was first class, made us feel welcome, and comfortable. The complimentary dishes were a divine addition to this culinary experience, allowing us to dine alacarte, and also experience the amazing and varied skills of the chef. Truely a 5 star dining experience.
L. H.
We had an excellent meal. It was nice to sit at the bar and have a cocktail before sitting down to dinner. Great starters with complimentary small soup and canapes first. The main courses of kangaroo and duck were first class and perfectly cooked. We then finished with a white and dark chocolate souffle.
C. C.
Me and my wife had the decadent degustation set menu for lunch and wow. The best scallops I have ever eaten, everything was absolutely amazing and cooked to perfection. The kangaroo was not for us but more due to our personal likings than the way it was cooked. Very cool place
S. M.
Awesome food service was exceptional no complaints look forward to coming back again soon!
G. M.
Fantastic restaurant in the heart of Perth, lovely ambience and food to die for. Great service and an incredible wine list! Reasonably priced as well, with a car park conveniently nearby. Thoroughly recommend it.
M. M.
Went here last night. Food was good, staff attentive and music was brilliant.
The old restaurant was more spacious though.
The negatives were, there is no dedicated dance floor so people get up between the tables to do so, there were also more than a couple who were rather anebriated but they kept getting fed alcohol right up to near closing time.
Of which these people represented some corporate body of which brings disrepute on that company
When I asked one of the owners as to why they kept serving alcohol to these people, her response was to advise me that they weren't misbehaving, so it was alright and they close in another hour.
This is not a responsible service of alcohol and not the answer I was looking for as they were an annoyance to our table due to standing in our view and nearly tipping drinks on us.
Last drinks should have been called instead of feeding a bunch of alcoholics..
Like I said the food was good, but was we were disappointed by some people acting like oafs.
Based on the owners response, we won't be back again and will look for another venue with a more mature clientele in the future that doesn't support the drinking habits of some over the respected dinner guests enjoying the entertainment.
C. S.
The best fine dining restaurant in WA, everything about Friends is great! I have been dining at Friends a couple times a year for the last 9+ years and have never walked away hungry or disappointed.
The food if amazingly delicious, extensive wine list and the customer service is outstanding, you are made to feel very welcomed.
T. I.
Thought I might of missed the view in their new establishment - didn't even notice it! We were a table of 6 for the degustation menu and the food was delicious, generous and the wine pairing was spot on. Staff are well trained and can read the room/table. Couldn't recommend highly enough.
N. K.
Not only course menu but also they have bistro menu on ground floor. Good quality and staff were friendly.
Definitely come back again.

We recently had dinner with friends mid week to check out the new Friends Restaurant menu and it did not disappoint! Every dish was beautifully presented and all had wonderful combinations of flavour, texture and aroma. The stand out dishes for me was the scallops and the pork... wow it had the perfect crunch! My companions were equally delighted with their choices. I really liked the way our waitress Michelle presented each dish taking a few seconds to explain everything on the plate, Clyde the owner was on hand to help us select the perfect wines to accompany our dishes.
L. M.
We had the pleasure of dining at Friends new venue on Sat 25 Jan and to say pleasure is a gross understatement. Everything about the restaurant was divine. The service was exemplary and the food was beyond description. Every mouthful was the most pleasurable assault on the senses. The hosts Clyde and Lesley Bevan certainly love their jobs and this shows in their greeting and discreet presence in their restaurant. The Saturday night menu that we chose had many choices and would dearly have loved to try them all but alas they would have had to lift us out by crane. The new venue certainly has a fabulous ambience. Love it and we will be back.
F. B.
The service was impeccable, with knowledgeable staff that weren’t too overbearing. They left us to enjoy our degustation without too much fuss, but were readily available when we had questions about the menu. Delicious food and wine, and attentive hosts who gave my friend a birthday treat, and even a couple of flowers when we left! nice

My Husband and I dined at Friends Restaurant in Perth a few months back and, was very impressed beginning to end. The service was excellent (made to feel very special) and the food was superb.
I'm every much looking forward to coming back once travel restrictions between our regions will allow it.
Happy Days 😀
a. M.
Good staff, nice wine list but I came first for the food and nothing sensational. We tried the 8 course tasting menu : and except the kangaroo n dessert, the other 6 courses was average. I'm ready to pay this amount of money (285 dollars each) if I know it will be gastronomic voyage. I didn't travel very far.
J. M.
Went here mid week with work friends due to high reviews. It really was top notch. The service was absolutely exceptional, best I’ve experienced for some time. Food was brilliant and nice complimentary bites in between courses. Everything about this place was fantastic including an amazing wine list. I could go on.....exceeded expectations by some margin.
C. “. M.
I was taken here by my fiancee for a birthday dinner. I was not told where we were going in advance, so I had no idea what to expect. From the moment we arrived the service provided by the friendly staff was exemplerary. It felt less like we were being served and more like we were being taken care of and looked after. Have you ever been to a restaurant and seen staff members who look bored, are inattentive, and seem like they would rather be anywhere else but there? This was the precise opposite of that.
The staff were also knowledgable about their extensive wine selection and were able to suggest the perfect match for my meal, which itself was outstanding (grade 5 wagyu beef is a treat I'm unlikely to experience again for a while!).
It's clear that the place sees plenty of people celebrating special occasions, we saw a number of guests celebrating birthdays, as well as a proposal, while we were there. And it's not hard to see why!
With amazing food and even better service, Friends has a reputation that is definitely earned, and I look forward to going back for the next occasion!
S. B.
We dined here for my husband's birthday and elected to have the 8-course degustation. Each course was faultless, the timing of each delivered course was perfect and the friendly wait staff made the experience all the more special for us. The standout course was the mushroom and corn soup; we could've consumed litres of it! We'd read reviews of the decor being somewhat outdated but we think that adds to the charm and uniqueness of the place. If you're concerned about the decor then let the food do the talking; you won't be disappointed.
I. L.
Visited Friends Restaurant and again it lived up to, and exceeded, its previous high standards. Every course was delicious, the service was impeccable, and the ambience was superb. If you want fine dining at its best then Friends is the place to go.Friends is now in a new location. Service excellent. Food excellent. Live show excellent. Nice and compact. Yes it is not the same as the other but nothing else has changed. Clyde and Lesley will spoil you. A must visit
A. M.
Best restaurant in Perth. Delicious food, lovely vibe, highly recommended.
D. R. F.
Such an excellent place to entertain company and share in spectacular and flavorful foods with a variety of drinks to attend to ensuring each meals taste brings joy.
Good and pleasant service.
P. C.
Went to Friend's restaurant last night for dinner for the degustation menu. It was amazing. It was our second time going there. The staff are amazing, Belle and Michelle, very attentive and can read the clients very well. Would definitely recommend going for a high end meal.
C. D.
What a wonderful lunch!. A real treat was the Truffle Degustation with paired wines. The wines were amazing. The staff were friendly & helpful catering to all our needs.....even a Birthday plate to help us celebrate.
D. S.
Amazing food and service. Attention to detail in all aspects of fine dining was excellent. Definitely recommend for that special occasion. I will be back.
S. P.
Honestly the best restaurant experience we have ever had. We went all out with the decadent menu with matching wine and do not regret it in the least. The service was amazing, there is a clear emphasis on making you feel welcome and relaxed. Everything tasted better than anything I have ever tasted. 5 stars is not enough!!
J. W.
Always fantastic service. The extra canapes they bring out are always a nice surprise. At the upper budget but definitely worth it. Staff are excellent. Food presentation is that of Masterchef. Wine selection is also top notch.
S. R.
If you want fine dining where you don't leave hungry and can have a comfortable homely experience i CAN NOT recommend Friends Restaurant enough!
I got taken here about 10 months ago and it was the most beautiful, indulgent, friendly comfortable place and experience I have had in a Restaurant hands down.
I work away doing FIFO and would happily pay to take my mum, family, friends or partner here time and time again.
The owners and staff are friendly, kind, bubbly, non judgemental, conforting and honestly just outstanding!
From the second you walk on to the second you leave i can not fault this beautiful place 20/10 for sure!!
j. d.
We had an amazing experience. Delicious food, with friendly staff and full of cleanliness. The service is also fast. One of my best experience in Perth.

Excellent food and excellent service. Wait staff are attentive and we got a surprise treat from them for our anniversary celebration there. It was our first visit, the entire dining experience is well presented and we love it. Request for window seat for better view over the Langley Park and Swan River before the view is gone with the move to 200 St Georges Terrace. Sure they will still have the excellent staff after the move.
M. L.
Taken her for a work meal, didn't really know what to expect. The outside or name doesn't really do it justice. Bar downstairs and dining room upstairs. Food was great, slightly higher prices than your usual fare, but I think worth the price. Entree $25 + mains $45 + I had the pork belly which was amazing. A bit of an old school service approach but overall great restaurant
A. L.
The food is excellent .
Wine recommended by our host ,Clyde, was a good choice.
Has the best wine-list in Australia
Lovely quiet dining space.
Service unobtrusive and still attentive.

We had a sensational time at Friends. Absolutely everything was faultless. Food, service, ambience, music, lighting, wine suggestions. Thoroughly enjoyed the Saturday tasting menu and we are looking forward to dining there again.
E. K.
Wonderful food with a great wine list. Wonderful staff. Warm atmosphere. Our favourite restaurant in Perth. Perfect for special occasions, especially our wedding.
Hosts Clyde and Lesley really made a wedding reception a truly special night and we cannot thank them for their efforts enough.

We’ve just had the most amazing meal at this restaurant. They have moved to 200 St Georges Terrace but left nothing behind at the old place. Attention to detail is second to none and the friendly staff look after you like you are an old friend they haven’t seen in a while. The food is absolutely stunning and great value for money for a top restaurant in Perth. The owners do what good owners should do, making sure the staff are being attentive, the food is going out on time and being delivered to the tables as it should and that their guests are happy. Great customer service. Love this place and the way it is run. We’ll be back for our next special dinner.

Claiming to be the best restaurant in Perth is a big call for this place. It certainly is up there in terms of the food taste and quality. The decor is a bit confused it is trying to be a 60s style restaurant but then there are these lights and disco ball that seem to be sitting right in the middle of the restaurant. Service is good and the complementary taste testers and soup are definitely a great touch. Would I be back. I am not sure......
M. Y. C.
Thanks for the great and unforgetable experiance. Food are unique, staff are friendly and nice environment.

Yet again we were made to feel like friends.
This place never disappoints. Exception service, exceptional food. This is not a night out. It's an amazing experience every time.

I reviewed this restaurant on Trip Advisor years ago and, in the interim, nothing has changed. Friends is consistent in its excellence in every aspect. The wait-staff are particularly impressive in their ability to be very attentive and yet quite unobtrusive. Having been a waitress, I know what a difficult job it is and they make it look easy. Kudos to all the staff for a superb meal and a wonderful evening.

Second time going to friends restaurant and not disappointed at all. The food is amazing, the venue is beautiful and the staff is exceptional. This is what I call high level of service. I would recommend Friends restaurant to anyone who loves fine dining experience. We will be back. Abby and Yanni
A. M.
Outstanding it's enticing, elegant, fabulous and appropriately named friends. Service was definitely fine dining and our waitress where around but not intrusive and knowledgeable. Wine list 📃 was top quality and classy. 3 set menu's and depends on your appetite. All meals were impressive and delectable. The wagu beef 🐄 was exquisite and melt in your mouth mind blowing. Toilets were amazing e off high standards. Clyde and Lesley were fabulous host's both professional and warm. Decor is elegant, romantic and views were wonderful. Bonus to my night was this beautiful couple gave me a gorgeous bunch of flowers 💐 so unexpected. Will definitely be back.

We had the 8 course degustation. The owner is a true sommelier, the wine pairings were perfect. Impossible to disappoint.

What a great experience. Service was excellent and the food was delicious. Lovely for special occasions.
N. B.
Lovely place for fine dining. Nice service, food and view.
This is the second time we have been there and it never disappoints!
My husband and I tried two different tasting menus. One was 8 courses and the other was 6. Pretty good value for money and delicious.
A. G.
Yet another visit to Friends on a voucher, the 5 course Truffle degustation, with my 2 daughters. As always the food is excellent, the service above and beyond, and all the staff and owners, very friendly. It is amazing that such a simple dish as a soup can be the ultimate dish. All the other dishes are lovely too but the soup is king! We will go again and again as the vouchers are very good value and the setting is so lovely. Perfect place for a special occasion and to spoil yourself. Highly recommended.
M. T.
Went last night to celebrate my wife's birthday. It was absolutely fantastic the service was great and the food sensational. The night was made very special by the staff, highly recommended Friends.
R. C.
Friends restaurant is absolutely the best restaurant in Perth. The food is amazing and the staff are friendly and professional. Lesley and Clive are wonderful hosts. I always feel satisfaction and start to plan my next visit to Friends as I'm leaving. . Everyone should should go to Friends and experience this great restaurant on the Terrace Perth. Rebecca.
R. B.
I love this restaurant! Was a regular visitor over at the Hyatt centre and now very lucky to have this is super close to my work in Cloisters.
Lovely decor and warm and welcoming staff (best customer service in town) that serve some of the best food in town; will be going back again and again!
O. D. (.
Cannot say anything bad about this restaurant good service fantastic food, really anything about everything

Ive been here a few time for the degustation and they are fantastic my favourite restaurant in Perth always a dynamic menu with fantastic service every time.
L. C.
We visited for the first time tonight and it will not be the last. It was one of the Best dining experiences we have ever had, and we cannot fault any of it.The waiting staff were so attentive, and explained how the menu would be served, my husband chose to have the wine accompanying each course, and each wine was introduced before pouring. Each course again was introduced as it was served, so we knew exactly what we were having. The owners Lesley and Clyde had a chat with all the tables, and on leaving Clyde presented me with the most beautiful rose.
The food, the drinks, and the staff were absolutely fabulous, 11 out of 10 for this establishment...thank you so much for a wonderful evening
J. W.
Amazing food at this restaurant and really friendly owners. The decor is totally old school, the antithesis of most Perth restaurant fitouts. If you want quite conversation this is your place. Four of us enjoyed another splendid degustation menu at Friends Restaurant last night. Yet again the quality of food, wine, welcome and service were outstanding. This is a classic in the best sense of the word. This is our favourite venue for a relaxing evening sampling beautifully presented dishes. Once again, a 5 star experience. Thanks to everyone at Friends.
L. P.
Friends Restaurant is our favourite restaurant in Perth. We are huge fans of the Seasonal Tasting Menu or degustation. This is most definitely the place to take someone special, to impress, but also to enjoy the very best Perth has to offer without the snobbery.
Exceptional service, classic, classy and distinctively romantic. Generous servings of stunning food that is at the very top of it's game.
Every time we leave here in the car on the way home the conversation is always the same, when we can come again. Just delightful on every point.
Clyde and Lesley have been Perth restaurateurs for many years and it shows in everything they put forward with effortless class. Clyde's knowledge and deep understanding of wine and liquor is such a treat for us every time we visit and their cellars, like their food are Australian award winning. We can never get enough of this place. Do yourself a favour!!
E. J.
I would like to sincerely thank the team at friends Restaurant for the wonderful evening that my 3 guests and I recently enjoyed. It was the first time to Perth (from New Zealand) for my friend, and he was treated to not only delicious food, first-class service and spectacular views, but also a "Welcome to Perth" dessert plate (complete with sparkler!). To say he was impressed was an understatement!
In a time when quality restaurants can be hard to find - let alone stay afloat - friends Restaurant has remained a shining beacon in our local industry. Again, thank you for making our evening such a special one. You certainly showcased Perth in a very positive manner!
L. M.
wonderful place with a great service for a special occasion. food is always great. we tried the 2 course meal tonight with the wine pairing for each meal. Went home full and satisfied for sure 👍
C. H.
Friends is a restaurant we are consistently wowed by. We don't live in the area but we regularly visit due to the amazing food and even better service and last night was no different, you're looking for a five star dining experience then this is the place for you. The food, the service and the atmosphere is second to none.
S. G.
Top quality food and amazing service. One of the best restaurants we have been to in a long time
P. M.
Great fine dinning experience, the lamb was awesome, had a side of vegetables and the mini profiteroles for dessert. The wine menu was very impressive in comparison to other fine dinning around Australia, decor is awesome, view is open with trees outside. The social aspect has a family/ friend vibe. A couple little surprises through the night kept you in a deluge of fine dinning experience 👍👍 thanks guys. First time but I'll be back 😊
H. M.
Everything was excellent, service food ambiance. We had teenaged with us and they also enjoyed it. The food was great and it was busy. Had not been there for years. It was weekend lunch and we loved the journey as we usually don’t go that far afield now. Well worth it for our special occasion.
G. K.
Over from Tasmania. Took a Friend here for her Birthday. Can not folter this Restaurant. Ordered the 8 decadent menu. perfect Service, Excellent Food, Perfect Presentation. Good price Great location . Would go here defiantly again thank you to the Staff wonderful Night
L. K.
The best dining experience I have ever had. The superb food down to being treated as a very welcomed guest! Its like the owners are having you at their own home. Was a first time for me and can't wait for a special occasion so I can return. 10/10 recommend
T. R.
My husband and I went to a lot of Michelin restaurants in the world and great ones in Aus, this is coming very close to be right up there with Michelin when we are talking about food and an outstanding wine paring, the paring was probably the best we ever had. I gave it 5 stars if it wasn't for the very old decor. It can have a 70s charm but plastic wine leave decor doesn't belong there. If you are looking for a perfect meal and fantastic wine this is the place to be.
B. A.
Very nice place. Nice food great service....
A. B.
Friends Restaurant is a jewel in the restaurant crown! We have been long term patrons Ie. 20 years, and every single dining experience with Clyde and Lesley Bevan has been outstanding. Amazing food, service and wine! The new Cloisters restaurant in the cbd is fabulous, very interesting and caters to many occasions.
A Must visit !!
B. G.
Had a Fabulous evening at Friends Restaurant. "Casual" fine dining at it's best. Lovely staff, great atmosphere and a beautiful 5 course truffle degustation with exellently matched wines. The chef used truffle in all courses. Sensitively handled so that it was obviously there but didn't overpower the dishes. Recommended.
C. a. J.
Really tasty food! The pork belly was scrumptious and the steak perfectly cooked :) very attentive staff, great wine and delightful dessert. And for a fancy restaurant the portions are especially big. Definitely recommmended!
J. B.
Took my wife and and dear old mum to Friends on Tuesday and was rewarded with a memorable experience. Staff treated us all in a patient and friendly manner and service was impeccable. The food was remarkable for its quality and presentation...we particularly enjoyed the complimentary appetisers between each course and the attentiveness of our hosts. Highly recommended.
M. A.
I cannot talk this restaurant up enough, the service was excellent, the food was divine, the décor was classy and a great soundtrack for dinner. The truffle degustation menu was second to none, if you crave truffles then this is for you, it's a 6 course and I can guarantee you that not only will you get enough truffles to taste but the portions are quite big. I loved it, I haven't been here for 18 years, I was impressed then and am so happy to say that I am happy now. Please keep giving us a great dining experience in Perth.
F. M.
We booked for lunch when we saw there was pheasant and partridge on the menu which is so rare to find here.
We weren’t disappointed, both were beautifully cooked and presented.
The waiting staff and manager/owner were very attentive without being intrusive.
A great experience, thank you.
M. T.
Absolutely delicious food, every course was the nicest food I've ever eaten!
S. P.
My friend booked a table at Friends Restaurant for the four of us.
It was going to be diner and Edit Piaf ' s show.
I was celebrating my 70s Birthday.
I can't express in words how much we enjoyed the evening.
The atmosphere, the food, the service, it was absolutely amazing.
From the moment we were welcome at the entrance
the staff and the owners made us feel special.
The show was brilliant.
Through songs and stories, Rhoda Lopez as Edit Piaf's took us through
the life of the French Sparrow with an incredible interpretation.
The band and other actors involved in the play were magnificent.
Excellent is not enough a compliment for a memorable evening.
Highly recommended.

Thankyou Belle for being an amazing host and presenting so well, the service was just superb.
Start to finish...I cannot tell you more as I still am talking about it the next day!!!just go there and you will see.

Way, way, way overdue review birthday for 2, squeezed us in - on a Saturday - totally spoilt, food GLORIOUS, beautifully presented, ambiance just perfect, we were still there at 1.00am alone accept for staff possibly owners. Wine list divine found much loved old world wines so may by the glass. Took the 10 & 5 course degustation with 2 different wine levels. Cheap, no, value for money absolutley just out of this world.
P. Z.
Very cosy & friendly ambience with very customer focused efficient & attentive staff. Lovely touches. A purple Dutch iris on leaving for the lady. Wonderful ending. The degustation very interesting 5 course menu choices were all flavoured with truffles. From the onion truffle soup to the apple souffle & truffle flavoured icecream to finish. The beginning and ending were my favourites. Anyone interested in cooking or is cook would appreciate the amount of work that went into presenting such a menu. Well done The Friends Restaurant at the Cloisters in Perth CBD.
G. B.
Old school service with modern, beautiful food. This restaurant has been around for years and there is a reason for this. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was wonderfully surprised. We had the 8 course degustation with accompanying wines. Was later told that the head chef Justine, is only 24 yrs old. The dishes were tasty and beautiful, and quite generous in size. I lived in the moment and didn't distract myself by taking photos, but just HAD to have one of the souffle!
M. B.
Good food and service, decor a bit tired but...... The waitress accidentally spilled a full glass of wine and apologised . One of the owners came to mop up the table and place 3 or 4 napkins over the wet table cloth. No apology or offer to replace the wine. At the end of the meal, no asking how the meal was and charged full price. Been there, done that but left with a bit of a sour taste.
r. B.
Went there recently to see "Cher" and "Rod Stewart". Great entertainment and food was good but you had to like what was put in front of you.
Found the wine list to be overpriced but then that is a common critisism with many licensed restaurants. All in all though I would recommend it for a good night out.
L. L.
What an amazing place! The service is impeccable, you hardly notice that they are there yet your glass is always topped up and your food appears like magic. The food is delicious, and I love all the little "extras" that come between courses. I would recommend Friends for a special occasion or just to spoil yourself.
K. W.
Had a beautiful 5 course seafood degustation meal with matching wines. Everything perfect. Excellent flavours and presentation. Great service and atmosphere. Absolutely recommend having a dining experience at Friends.
R. T.
Wow what an amazing food experience. Every course was an explosion of flavour and topped off with wine to match - mmmmm. Words cannot express how fantastic this meal was let alone the incredible service. Definitely worth the price and I can't wait to visit again.
A. W.
Dined at Friends Restaurant tonight and what can I say, but WOW

Took relatives from the UK here for a lovely dinner. Service was attentive but not overly so. Decor wise, it's not exactly modern and could do with a bit of a spruce up but ambience was very nice. Very happy and would definitely recommend.
S. S.
Decadent menu with matching wines were best decision. Amazing service and above par food. Staff made us feel welcomed and at ease. Will love to be back.
T. L.
A must go, one of the best restaurants I've ever had the pleasure to eat at. If nothing else the 3000 mile trip was worth it for the meal I had at friends. Had the kangaroo (for the first time) and it was adsulutly fantastic. Every time I'm in Perth I'll be eating here. Not to mention a very inviting and curtious staff. Fantastic service.
m. i.
Checked this place out and after visiting we definitely wanting to come back! With a stunning atmosphere and view of the swan river. Service was excellent, great variety of fine food and wine. 100% recommended if your after for an outstanding fine dining experience.

Just before Christmas, Friends hosted our private function for 85 guests.
This wasn't just your ordinary alternate drop style or fixed menu, this was a la carte choice of 3 dishes for each course. Clyde and Leslie's team knocked it out of the park. They worked with our entertainment, supplying the lighting and staging and managed the event. The food was seriously great as was the entire evening with first class service. Get someone else in Perth to do that as good on a Saturday night. Thanks guys.
B. W.
Saw Russell Morris and band with a group of friends. What a great night. First class food, service, ambience and entertainment. Intimate atmosphere.
Love it. Would like more Friday and Saturday night gigs. Then we can sleep in!

The best souffle I've ever tasted!

Also, thank you for the beautiful roses : )

By far one of the best fine dining restaurants in perth. The food is out of this world. The wine lists are to die for. A team of friendly faces will greet you and look after you though your dining experience headed by Clyde and Leslie.
J. X.
Spectacular service and food. I had the kangaroo for my main. I expected the meat to be tough, but the meat was extremely tender and juicy! I loved this place and highly recommend it if your craving a meal. My friend had the baremundi, the skin was crispy and the meat was tender. The entree was just as great. Chicken stuffed with fig and chorizo. Yummy! If you are really hungry, you might as well eat here.
K. H. L.
This place has been here for 20 years. Very cosy friendly environment. The decor is very ornate and interesting. Staff at well trained and know how the restaurants flavors very well. The food is really good. Had a great time and it is a upscale place.

Our Christmas lunch for 14 was simply unforgettable and amazing ! We had six courses including scallops, barramundi, pork belly (best in the world!!) and beef fillet. Each was matched with sensational wines and sauces - each course seemed to try to outdo its predecessor. The quality of service provided by Clyde and Lesley made for a stunning afternoon. Thankyou so much.
