Comments of Restaurant Hubert

D. D.

Amazing ambiance. Reminded me of this beautiful old colonial theatre I used to go to as a kid. The food was scrumptious, large portions which you can share. Perfectly cooked. All this with great jazz that adds to the theatre of this place.

E. N.

Tucked away Hubert is worth the hype and a standout in the Sydney dining scene. The ambience is moody, jazzy, romantic and fun and the food compliments ever so well. The Chicken Fricassee is a must if dining with a group - the chicken is so flavourful, wonderfully moist and overall just divine and delicious.

N. Z.

5 star is not enough for this restaurant. We loved the ambience, the team, the music, the food and the people. We will definitely go back there. Our favourite dish was the Crème Caramel. Absolute divine.

A. H.

Dim, fun,chill and jazzy vibe accompanied by French cuisine with an Asian twist. Definitely NOT a classic French restaurant. Feels a little too hyped, particularly the food and cocktails. The wine selection is decent and has a good variety of French wines. Hubert does however has a nice fun, jazzy and "Frankie Pizza" vibe (restaurant version). There was live music when I was there, which was really nice. Overall I felt the food was missing a final French boot in the buttocks. Feels like Hubert just missed the mark on well balanced dishes. The OX escargot was overpowered by the OX sauce so much so that it tasted like seafood (might as well get seafood??) There was no french onion soup which I was looking forward to however the Kimchi gratin tasted like French onion soup with Kimchi in a gratin form. Taretare was not bad, though it shouldn't need so much potato crisps to shine as a dish. I would have preferred more concentration on getting the taretare well balanced. Steak was nice though I would have loved a little bit of French style gravy. The fries was sadly coated in a seaweed seasoning, that was dry to the mouth and actually a little sweet. I personally would have preferred regular salt potentially with some simple herbs/spices. Service is a bit above average and note the food is designed to be shared (not very French) so it better to come with more people like about 4-6 if you want to try more mains. Make sure to book a month in advanced due to popularity.

Absolutely in love with the vibe and food here. We were lucky enough to get a last minute booking even though it’s a bar seat. Must try Escargots XO, Duck Parfait, Bavette. There was also live music, which made my night perfect.

C. &. C.

The place had a great ambience. We didn't have a reservation and we got seated at the bar but was allowed to get the full dinner menu. The bartender and the servers were really knowledgeable about what they were selling. The place is just amazing. Live band was a bonus. It was a lovely night with lovely food and great people. We started with the Fish boat with 3 different raw stuff- caviar, trout roe and sea urchin on an edible base which was super delicious. Followed by the escargot which is the only place we found this here in Sydney, so far. Got the steak and added foie gras. - a bit dry on the foie gras but I can understand as it is very difficult to get this here. and dessert was huge, too! Would definitely come back!

D. G.

Lived up to the hype and recommendations I’ve received. Just great French bistro food with cool live jazz. The only issue is they are so popular that they squeeze in 3 seatings, be prepared to be rushed.

M. A.

I liked all the dishes, great staff and unique service, but I was located in a very bad position. It seems that it’s so hard to book, so if I pay a lot of money I hope to have a wonderful experience. I hope you guys understood my point of view. Regards

G. “. H.

One of the premier dining experiences I've had in Sydney. A relaxed but refined setting with live jazz and a myriad of interesting posters and bottles give you a setting perfect for the food. The food balances out well with a mix of traditional French style with just something that enhances. Soufle and gnocchi among the best appetisers. Steak was soft and flavourful, fish bright and cooked to a nice texture and the burger an experience among the best. Desserts balanced the sweet and mellow flavours needed to finish the night. Service impeccable and waiters with the knowledge of everything at hand. Highly recommended for that special night you can spend the money.

B. D. T.

Always a delight coming to hubert. One of my favorites in sydney. Brilliant food, well made cocktails, exceptionally good service and the ambiance transports you to somewhere out of Sydney. You can forget your stresses here at Hubert

E. T.

Heard lots of great reviews and Hubert has been recommended to me on numerous occasions as a must-try restaurant. The food was flavoursome, service was attentive and friendly. Highlight was the Escargot XO. Booking is essential and make sure it's you do so months in advance as it tends to get booked out. Recommended. Definitely would have given a five star rating for the establishment however I've taken one point off as there was some confusion over an incident raised subsequently and it could have been handled better by the restaurant manager.

L. D.

We've tried and tried to get into Hubert's and we finally made it! Only to realise that they accept.walkins at the bar downstairs 🤦 will definitely be back for that soon as the bar staff are on point and the Margie's and cocktails in general are 👌 We went the petit banquet for 6 but thought it necessary to also add the 1kg rib eye. The service was impeccable. The team swarmed us with mains and we're there right when we needed them throughout the night. It was such a great experience, from the mini alcohol collection on the way last the stairs, to the feeling that you.jist slipped back into the prohibition era, seeing the piano up on the stage, or knowing the drinks list has collaborated with Baxter inn, all makes me want to come back again and again to try the rest of the menu/drinks list. Thanks Hubert!

C. O.

The food and vibe was great. Service was good too. Wine recommendations were on point.

w. c.

Always a pleasure dining at Hubert, great food and vibes but it’s hard to get a booking on specific days, requires you to plan in advance.

D. D.

One of the best place to eat French food. The service cannot be fault. The atmosphere and music was pleasant was eating and enjoying our conversation

M. L.

One of the best restaurants in Sydney. Food is unbelievable, service was crazy fast and helpful... Amazing atmosphere too... Do yourself a favour and try the chicken...

W. R.

It's an odd place. Seemingly buried deep underground, the decor transports you back to the 1970's, with quaint signage and bottles populating high shelving. The place is popular, and it's owing to the mix of quaint, bustle and predictability. The menu is simple, the food well prepared, and professionally delivered. The duck beast is outstanding (I never quite get the appeal of the signature fricassee chicken). And did I mention they have a theatre? Julia Stone and her band were outstanding! As I said, an odd place. But try not falling in love...

S. E. J.

Excellent atmosphere, the food authentic French like you don’t find much of these days in sydney. The wagyu tartare is a must try. The staff were very eloquent and helpful five stars for the service

M. T.

Completely overpriced and one staff member was very rude. Seems quite authentic compared to bistros I visited in Paris but not worth the price. Drinks list is comprehensive. Very dark and on this occassion (and probably regularly) had a live band playing gentle jazz. Definitely worth a visit to the bar downstairs or dining if someone else is paying!

C. G.

First off: Booking is required! We were lucky to have been given the table close to the reception. Second, if you dine at the bar area, you can’t have the main dining menu. Food was exceptional! Ordered steak frites with a side of foie gras and enjoyed the live music! Lastly, if you want to listen to live music, call in advance to know when the band will take breaks. Our meal got served right when the band took a 30-minute break. Love this restaurant! 5 star all the way!

R. W.

Woww amazing restaurant!! All staff very kind and friendly.. And for the food I very like it. I hope after lockdown I can come back again!

S. H.

Very intimate and romantic atmosphere perfect for a date night with your beloved or with friends! The food was good however not suitable for vegetarians. Glad that I eat fish!! The service at the bar counter was very good as the staff was always taking care of you. (Thank you to to lady with pink hair, sorry I don't remember your name, that even if wearing the mask she was always smiling)

C. K.

We've had our company Christmas party at Hubert. Everything was great including it's 1950s atmosphere.

An amazing restaurant with awesome food!

T. D.

One of the best steaks I’ve ever had! Staff were lovely and the vibe with the live Jazz Band is almost unbeatable. Highly recommend!

R. N.

The restaurant has an amazing vibe, the moment you step down the stairs you ll hear live jazz music. Staff are super friendly and accommodating. Perfect for dinner dates, the candle in the middle of the tables makes the atmosphere romantic. Wide variety of dishes. Highly recommend to try oysters, escargots, sea urchin, layered potatoes and the steaks. Everything was delicious, very happy to have picked this place to take my partner for our anniversary. Had to wait awhile to be able and book this restaurant. Would come again!

L. L.

Absolutely a perfect French restaurant located in CBD of Sydney. When you push the wooden door from the crowde street and follow the stairs to the basement, it is like walking into the time tunnel, gradually moving away from modern times. Very enjoy my birthday dinner with my friends here. Love all of you!

L. O. W.

The menu offers a wide variety of delicious and mouthwatering starters and main courses. Everything we ate was fresh and delicious! The restaurant also offers a wonderful drink menu. The menu is pricey but surely worth sampling. From the cozy lighting and the elegant decór to the amazing musicians. The atmosphere in Hubert is really special. In contrast, however, the service was a bit slow. But we were happy to wait while enjoying the live music.

C. K.

We've had our company Christmas party at Hubert. Everything was great including it's 1950s atmosphere.

Y. D. S.

The restaurant is beautiful and I like how alive is the band and the cool chat we had with musician, the candles and the atmosphere in general 👌🏽🕯 🎻 The food is tasty. I could have gave an extra star however the confusion on the drinks orders few times and been over charged on the bill changed my mind a bit. I still recommend the experience and I love French food 💋

R. C.

I just fell in love with the ambience and such an awesome collection of miniatures for your two flight of stairs down to the restaurant. The food was great, though the portions can be better. I’ll recommend this as an experience rather than a regular lunch or dinner. Live music on Friday lunch was pleasant. Put on your tuxedos and gowns, and head to this one for your next special date.

C. K.

Second time here and it was excellent! , great customer service! The show is amazing! Even if ur bot a huge fan of jazz! Definitely recommend it to all! And definitely I'll come back !

A. C.

I had dinner as a walk ins in this nice French restaurant in the center. The place is exquisite even if full. Gorgeous elevated cellar and attentive and kind staff. Even the seats at the bar counter are comfortable and not at all in the background compared to the low seats. Jordan was superb and spent a lot of time, albeit very busy, preparing cocktails. Classic menu (soufflé, tartare, escargot, caviar, Chateaubriand) excellent, perhaps the dessert menu a bit limited. I'll be back.

R. C.

What a meal! It's hard to pin point the best dish but it was either the Tuna or the Steak. We had the banquet and everything was really good. Staff were excellent and the location is pretty cool as well. Love the steps downstairs into the restaurant.

E. S.

Dining at Rsstaurant Hubert is like stepping into a time warp. The underground French Restaurant has a serious vibe. It actually feels like France, but France from yonder. The new chef is cooking more classic French food and it’s good. Tarte tartin of root veg is delicious. Snails are still delicious. Beef is delicious. Soon all the avant-guard signature dishes will be gone, some are not working now, lost in translation. I can’t wait for Alexis Besseau to find his rhythm as this joint is critical on the Sydney dining landscape

J. Y.

Excellent dining experience with live music playing. The food is on point and great to celebrate a friends birthday dinner. The 1kg rip eye melts in your mouth and good proportion size to share. Definitely was the signature of the night. Will definitely be back to try the other dishes. Thank you for a wonderful night

T. L.

Hubert did not disappoint. Everything was impeccably presented and tasted divine! Came back for my birthday as last time we were seated in the bar section with a limited menu. Service was excellent with drinks being provided promptly, more bread served to allow us to enjoy the duck parfait and dip into the xo sauce with the escargot (probably not the usual thing to do but it just seemed wasteful not to!) And plates removed in a timely manner. The beef tartare and yellowfin tuna tartare was exquisite. So fresh and light. Then came the 1kg wagyu T-bone - cooked and flavoured to perfection - went well with the salad and roasted garlic. We did not manage to finish it but it was worth taking home and devouring the next day! 🤤 last but not least the madeleines.. a new favourite of mine such that I've gone home to learn how to make these beauties! Thank you for such a lovely dinner experience. Will sure to be back!

G.

Wow! From the moment I walked into this very unique restaurant, I was blown away. The food was amazing, service impeccable (a shout out to Jordan who was our Server). Yes it's a bit on the expensive side, but so worth it. Highly recommend the clams, Murray Cod and duck a l'orange, and gateau chiffon washed down with a fine bottle of Margaux. Thank you Restaurant Hubert for a very memorable dining experience. We'll be back.

U. N.

Ambient vibe in the restaurant. Highly recommended place if you are going for a romantic date, but very less personal space as the tables are quite compacted and it also gets crazy busy. Also music may not let you hear each other properly. Food were also bit pricey compared to quantity of food they serve. Some of the staff were quite excellent but some were bit rude. They have a wide range of collections of good wine but they are highly priced in compare to other restaurants. I would recommend for a one time visit for an experience but not for regular visit.

l.

It is very hard to book a table at this place. You would have to book 2-3 months in advance. But I can see why it’s in high demand. The food is fantastic! I highly suggest getting the banquet as it means your group can try a little bit of everything. The beef tartare and the duck parfait is great!

V. W.

This place is the most amazing date night experience ever. Intimate, great food and wine, live jazz music. What else can you ask for. We went on a Monday night as they are always booked out, and the experience was just lovely. Definitely brightened up my week.

I. R.

French cuisine on point. So amazing! Quirky French restaurant with jazz vibes and awesome staff. We had the best experience, the food was divine, the staff were friendly and knew the menu well, which really makes a difference. We had the oysters escargot, cheese soufflé and blood sausage to start, followed by the steak and chicken with chips, cabbage and greens - everything was to die for. The steak melted in your mouth! Highly recommend. We’ll def be back!

S. M.

If you are looking for a great French restaurant in Sydney, this is the place to go. Hubert is wonderful for service, food, drink AND entertainment, with a stage for a Jazz band to play. The quality of this place is unreal and I can't recommend it more!

L. S.

Told to arrive on time, otherwise will cancel our booking ( even we have paid $290 for a Les Plats Royaux dish prior). Arrived 10mins early, didn't get seated till 8pm. Didn't offer sit in the bar, standing in the corner for more than half hours in heels. Otherwise, it's a lovely place for Wednesday night. Live music performance, Good food. Very crowd and busy. FYI - Charge $10per person to serve Birthday cake.

J. E.

Pretty damn good. Great ambiance - felt like I imagine a 'speakeasy' from days gone by would feel, probably down to the laid back jazz going on in January. A bit pricy, but sometimes you do actually get what you pay for

T. D.

One of the best steaks I’ve ever had! Staff were lovely and the vibe with the live Jazz Band is almost unbeatable. Highly recommend!

J.

I loved the atmosphere, waiters were very attentive and lovely despite it being busy on Christmas Eve and the entrees and appetisers were delicious! A shame we weren’t super impressed with their mains; we felt it fell flat and boring in comparison to their entrees. Next time we come here, we won’t be ordering their mains. PS: the pomme fries were bland and not crunchy 😞

J. K.

Lovely staff, very beautiful and entertaining live jazz band, professional and efficient service, and great food! My partner and I had a great time! We ordered the seafood platter ("Fruits of the ocean"), beef tartare, and field mushroom confit as entrees. There were all really delicious! But the presentation wasn't that great? For mains, we ordered the 500g rib eye steak. The staff suggested to get medium as it was difficult for them to cook medium raw apparently? It was pretty dry on the outside but the inside was tender. Overall, my favourite part was the live jazz music and the fresh seafood platter entree!

S. H.

One of the best dining experiences that I have ever had. Outstanding food wine and service. The staff were extremely helpful with recommendations and were very warm and welcoming. I went for a date night with my partner. To start we had the steak tartare and gnocchi. Both amazing but the tartare was the standout, the best tartare I have had, it was moreish and packed full of flavor. My partner who wouldn’t usually eat tartare tried it and loved it and kept going back for more. For main course we ordered the 1kg Rib Eye to share, it was cooked to perfection with a side of confit garlic, hands down one of the best steaks I have ever had. A steak that needs no sauce is probably the highest compliment you can give. We also had sides of greens, fries, cabbage blue cheese gratin and pommes Anna. (We came hungry so we could try as much as possible) All of the sides went down a treat but the greens for me were a favorite as they had this zingy buttery flavor that complimented the steak perfectly. Afterwards we went to the bar and had some more wine, I usually am not a dessert person as I don’t have much of a sweet tooth but I really wanted to try the Madelines and am so glad that I did. They were freshly baked and filled with a lemon lime curd, super light and flavorful and the perfect way to end a perfect meal. We specifically came hungry and with high expectation. I have been dying to try Hubert for some time now and to say that I was blown away is an understatement. Still dreaming about the food today. I look forward to my next visit.

J. A.

Underground Jazz bar and theatre. Had the set menu in January 2021. Amazing food, fantastic drinks, incredible live jazz music and a wonderful setting. 10 out of 10, will go again.

Z. J.

This is a place you need to visit at least once in your life. The vibe here is super classy and definitely high end, even for the bar for Happy Hour like we did. Huge variety of drinks and a good selection of food. The food menu at the bar could be a little bigger, but I guess that's what the restaurant side is for. The standout from the menu? Well that's definitely the Normandy Burger at only $13 during Happy Hour and for $4 for the silkiest and smoothest French fries you'll ever have. The Burger itself is a Dry Age Beef perfection. You get hit with the Umami flavour and pungent beef, that coats your entire mouth with pure beef fat goodness. Topped with onions, cheese, in house sauce and pickles between a dark and fluffy brioche bun, it's a piece of heaven between buns. Well worth a visit just for this.

E. S.

We went to the Bar during happy hour (5-6 PM) and had Negroni, wines and some food. Really good value, burger was really good and we love the ambience especially with the live Jazz music. Would love to come back again and try the restaurant. Highly recommended! 👍

M. K.

Exceptional atmosphere thanks to the live jazz, very difficult to get a good seat, amazing foods with the drink list, disappointing service yet they do try their best to satisfy the customers. Best French restaurant to me personally. I'm not a French food expert tho. I always go there if I get to wear something fancy cloths. I highly recommend this place for both locals and tourists.

B. M.

Absolutely loved this place! The food was outstanding, the ambiance and music (both live and background) was engaging without being intrusive - and the beverage menu was fantastic too - cannot wait to come back!

E. K.

Best French restaurant! Amazing food, Fantastic atmosphere! But serive need to upgrade. We order bread for 3 times, Servers keep forget it and beer takes 20 mins to serve.

S. J.

This place is v special to me. I came across it by accident on a business trip a couple days before covid became real. Revisited a few days ago. Pommes Anna delicious. Fish was okay. We liked the steamed greens. Souffle is forgettable. After 6.30pm jazz music starts. Last visit it was super cold from airconditioning and the guy guiding us to our seat told my mum she should put her jacket away because it's warm here. Then kind of insisted on it for some reason, maybe so she would look better? If my mum wants to wear her jacket because it's freezing, she will. Lay off. I get the sense that there is a high staff turnover at the bar. I've seen people get trained and leave after a few hours seemingly without pay. This is illegal. I'd be curious to know if they pay their staff properly here.

J. S.

It was perfect French cuisine. The atmosphere was great, romantic, beautiful presentation and friendly service. Definitely you have to try the duck parfait, it will not disappoint!! This place is always busy so make sure you come early. Highly recommended!!

M. L.

Hands down my favourite restaurant in Sydney! We normally walk in and sit at the bar as it has all the dishes we love from the restaurant. We always order the duck parfait, beef tartare and steak frites. The whiskey apple is also a great drink!

H. M. M.

What an absolutely stunning venue that utterly captures the old French vibe. I have been here a couple of time for the bar section and it was great. Came this week for the restaurant dining with a friend and it was packed on a Tuesday! There were no tables but they managed to seat us near the back next to the kitchen but it still remained a lovely spot. The ambience is just perfect and the decorations are so wonderful. The food, what can I say! It's wonderful and very quickly served which was extremely impressive. I highly recommend the steak tartar and the escargot. The food was decadent and delicious. 10/10 Hubert's. I had very high expectations and you met all of them. I'll return with more friends!

S. C.

This place made me fall in love with French cuisine.

J. W. K.

Amazing atmosphere, live jazz, classic French food. Amazing wine list and very welcoming staff. An all around great place. I will be back for sure.

M. S.

If you look for the top restaurant in Sydney, Hubert is unavoidable, it is written about everywhere, so we had to check it out. We went on a Friday night around 9:30pm; it was packed, loud, bustling, and had a great supper club energy. We only had to wait maybe 45 minutes for a group of 4, which seemed just fine considering we had no reservations. A classic revival style establishment with NY style classic cocktails, all stellar. The food experience was everything I expected, every dish a joy, and prices were actually quite decent for 3 Chef's Hats. The star of the night was the blood pudding, which we could have ordered a hundred of. The uni and roe bread was excellent, I got 3 of them, the salads were huge and fresh, the steak tartare was to die for, I really have no complaints. The sommelier was also excellent, and talked us away from a more expensive sparkling to something a bit more esoteric and also cheaper; we all loved it and appreciated his honesty. Hubert is professional, fun, loud, and made for groups. Highly recommended.

B. H.

The band into food experience was absolutely class. Atmosphere was easy and fun. Went as a Group of 5. Do yourself the treat. You deserve it.

A. R.

Underground location is a bit difficult to locate. But once you opened the wooden door, it’s another world. Brilliant bar seating and casual food. Or the jazz night with group dining option. This place will not let you down. Top quality food and great selection of wines. It is our best spot after work and please come to there magnum night. Worth every dollar spending and it is the best in Sydney!

C. T.

Absolutely loved this place! The bread was delicious- a great combination of a crisp crust and a soft inside. The pate and escargot were enjoyable but the highlights were definitely the steak and chicken. The steak was cooked to perfect and had amazing sauce while the chicken was the most tender I've ever had. Good value for a fancy and delicious group meal.

R. M.

We had a lovely dinner here for Jazz January. The music was spot on, and the food - as always - was out of this world. This place is not cheap, but you absolutely get what you pay for - the food and drinks are probably some of the best you will get in Sydney, and the service is just that right amount of familiar and professional. The restaurant itself feels like you're in Paris in the 1930's. We did not want to leave!

R. W.

Very very beautiful and cosy inside the restaurant. I felt like I was in a different era. Love the decor there and atmosphere is awesome, it makes you feel special. The waiter we had was very attentive and suggest meals that will suit us as a family. The food is quite nice here, but a bit pricy consider the size of the serving. Besides that, everything is pretty good Highly recommended.

I. P.

I’ve heard SO many good things about Hubert and I can say all my expectations were beyond met!! The ambience was incredible, the staff were attentive and friendly throughout the entire night, and the food was just *chef’s kiss*. I highly recommend that everybody adds Hubert to their list, I’ll definitely be going back for more. I didn’t grab a good photo of the Gnocchi but wow, literal clouds!!

o. d.

Its a pub, its a restaurant and its french what else you want. An awesome place if you just wanna chill and enjoy some social life. Food her is super tasty the duck liver parfait is to die for. I dont drink so i can not comment on that. But as of my friends reactions i would say it was good too. overall a nice evening with y0ur friends. And did i tell you, they have live jazz here. Seriously this place tops my expectation. Love to visit soon, thank you for great evening Hubert....

P. A.

super fancy restaurant but average food ! maybe I don't like French cuisine ! anyway not coming back but highly recommend if looking for a unique experience only for one night! a bit pricy but worth to spend !

L. K.

Great atmosphere here and the staff were very accommodating, I have some serious food allergies but the staff were so much more helpful than I expected. Food was really tasty and reasonably priced.

A. P.

Such a unique French restaurant. The decor is amazing and the food to match. Everything we ordered was delicious. This place is always busy so make sure you book ahead.

S. L.

It’s more of a dining for the environment than the food I would say after my dining experience at Hubert. The food are nice but not having the wow factor. And especially the steak we ordered was so tasteless and had to dip in the sauce to finish with it. Just thinking not really lived up to my expectations after having heard this place for so long and finally tried it.

C. D.

Hubert is hands down one of the best dining experiences I've had in Sydney. We reserved seats at the bar which still allowed you to soak up the jazzy vibe of the whole restaurant. With a band playing in the background and drinks flowing, it's hard not to have a good time. Everything on the menu is very well priced, especially for the quality you receive. Ordered up a few dishes I've been keen to try for a while and was not left disappointed. Standouts were easily the Bavette Steak and the Gnocchi Parisienne. Steak was perfectly cooked and super soft with the Diane butter adding an extra touch of richness! Already lining up my next visit to sample the remainder of the menu.

A. T.

Feels like you’re back in the heart of Paris. Sitting at the bar means endless entertainment watching the talented bar staff create the beautiful cocktails. Everything on the menu is delightful and the wine list is great reading.

V. N.

Amazing French food in the heart of Sydney. Would highly recommend @restauranthubert as the food was amazing and the ambience was so unique. You enter a whole new world when you walk through the doors of the restaurant and down the dark spiral staircase, leading to an amazing French bar at the bottom of the stairs. Every dish was delicious and pretty much faultless, highly recommend this for a date or catchup with friends. Instagram: @valerie.n.eats

R. L.

Fantastic intimate restaurant, feels like you enter into a completely different world as you venture down the stairs off street level. Consistently packed, recommend trying to go on a quiet weeknight earlier in the week if less than 4 people as cant book beforehand. We got lucky going on a Monday night and were seated at the bar area on the restaurant side - exactly same menu and comfortable enough. Friendly attentive staff got us started with drinks, took a bit to get it delivered but definitely knowledgeable and takes the time to hear what you are after to make good suggestions. Good selection of food on the menu, we ordered the Petite Barque as entrees, absolutely delicious and fresh - flavour bursts in your mouth and was the highlight of all the dishes. For mains, we got the Bavette steak and some fried potato sides with a good thick delicious sauce. Steak was well cooked but would suggest medium cooked, as our medium rare choice was a bit chewy. For dessert we had the banana tart which was nice and light, with an impressive thin base. All in all a great night out, thoroughly enjoyed the food, wine and atmosphere, will come again.

K. N.

Awesome atmosphere and interior design. Enjoyed the live band so much. Staff are very friendly, food are authentic and so delicious, wide choices of food in the menu. Will definitely return.

O. M.

Wedding; Immaculate service I could not fault at all. Good French cuisine. Thankyou for the everlasting memory!

M.

Cant say enough about the ambience and atmosphere. We got the Jazz January Special. Entrees were good, we ordered escargots which was fabulous. Mains and desserts were not to par. Salad presented was not what you expect of a restaurant of this caliber.

M. H.

Absolutely loved the vibe and setup of this restaurant. This is top shelf French cusine with a causal yet totally professional approach with its service delivery. The restaurant it self oozes that vintage charm and unique characteristics such as the theatre, live performace stage and wine bar. The menu is a curated selection of dishes which perfectly marries the precision of the French cooking techniques to the quality of the Australian produce. We loved everything from the duck parfait (with fresh Hubert baguette), poisson cru du jour (with yellow fin tune), mushroom au pouvre (must try), bavette steak, choux noir frise (just to balance out the meal with some greens) to vacherin (delicious meringue). We had the a la carte option today but they also have banquet option (minimum of 4 people) as well as events such as theatre nights (buffet style) and live performances. We truly had a great experience tonight and hope to revisit again to enjoy some live performances or theatre in the future.

R. G.

Love Hubert for their happy hour menu and their normal menu. The food is consistently on point and the service is great. You’ll need to get in early for both the happy hour menu, which seats you at the bar, or for their dine in service. They don’t really take bookings but I keep coming back here!

My all time favourite restaurant. The live jazz adds a beautiful atmosphere and the place is always buzzing without being loud. Staff are always lovely.

An old school restaurant. As you enter the heavy wooden doors and let your eyes adjust to the dimly lit landing with stairs leading down to the restaurant you notice the thousands of miniature alcohol bottles lining the walls. I am fascinated by history, so I took my time looking a all the little bottles and labels, some of them over a 100 years old! There are more on the next level down and as you finally descend into the basement you are greeted by a pleasant host. We had a party of 4 on a Tuesday at 8pm and were seated right away in the main room to the right. There are two very nice and old bars in the restaurant that you can sit at while you wait to be seated. The wait staff was a little overwhelmed, but I didn't mind the wait too much. We ordered the snails, the fried cheese, fish of the day, steaks, mushroom, patè and several drinks. All the food was absolutely excellent. We had a member of the party with several complicated food restrictions and they did a wonderful job of going back and forth to the kitchen to finally figure out what they could serve her. The presentation was simple, but the food was delectable. Absolutely recommend coming here, especially for a romantic evening or special occasion. I was especially impressed that they had proper steak knives, those that know, know what I mean. 😉

You honestly can’t go wrong with Hubert’s happy hour menu (4-6PM). I mean... $10 burgers... $5 gin and tonic??? Amazing. Between two people we both got a burger each and additionally one of everything on the rest of their menu because why not??? Staff were friendly and accommodating but the restaurant was a bit too dark for my liking. Other than that food was great and I’ll definitely be back.

L. N.

The approach may not be promising, an Ezy Mart opposite, at the business end of town, and on a street named after perhaps one of the colony of New South Wales more dubious Governors sent out to clean up the graft and corruption in the Rum corps. Few remember today that the early Sydney economy ran on a currency of hard liquor. Indeed it is slightly fitting that Hubert feels a little as though one has stepped into an off license Cabernet club of the prohibition era. But, I digress. It is 2020 and in the middle of a pandemic, the slight easing of social restrictions have allowed me to descend the oak lined curling staircase that takes one into the warm and dimly lit Hubert. It is French, there is live music Including a snare drum, it’s a bit Gershwin Rhapsody in Blue. There is a bar - Bar Normandy and it is long and high and neatly stacked like a Dickens curiosity shoppe. The are drinks - any drinks you want, by the glass or by the bottle and by the magnum...and they are expensive. But somehow real life is forgotten in here and that is a valuable thing in times like these. Then there is the menu. It’s all classic French bistro - all very Larousse Gastronomique. And it arrives, it looks delectable, it tastes perfectly French. It is indeed parfait. Is life a bit ordinary right now, are you unhappy? Go to Hubert; eat well and forget the world for a moment.

We went on a Saturday night for a 7pm dinner and the place was packed and we were advised we would get a table at 9pm if we wanted to wait for the restuarant. We opted for the bar instead and we were first in line. The bar menu is a little bit different to the restuarant dining menu but it is definitely substantial enough and we were able to get the pate even though it had the little * to state it was set time only. Overall food was delicious and amazing, although I do have preference for the simple garlic& herb butter escargot whereas Hubert cooks it in an XO sauce (still delicious), beef tartare was devine with matchstick fries (although we wouldve loved to add on an egg yolk and tabasco - not sure if they offer this as it wasn't on the menu or to be seen with the other patrons orders), steak frites was delicious as well as the cherry clafoutis. Don't forget to get some crusty outside and super fluffy inside bread & butter to go with the pate 👌

A. G.

This is one of my favourite restaurants to come eat. Love all the share dishes! This place is a must try. French flavours and a good atmosphere. The customer service is amazing too.

A. T.

Another Sydney institution, this time for French food. Easily the best French food I have had in Sydney (I haven’t had much to be fair). When you enter you actually go down quite a few stairs into a dimly lit, large room. Candles light the tables creating a romantic atmosphere. I’d happily eat here again.

J. K.

Great atmosphere and excellent food. We came here pre-lockdown and enjoyed the restaurant. We don't really know good French food, but we know good food when we eat it. This was incredible. We had the pate, the fish and beans and they were all delicious. The cocktails were well made and I really enjoyed the whiskey sour. Love the vibe at this place, we came on a night when they were playing live jazz music and it really added to the experience. Really recommend this place. Might try the chicken next, it was on a couple of tables.

S. H.

Superb, this place is the very definition of old school cool. Never been here before but will definitely be back. Food was superb, service in unobtrusive but attentive. The decor and general ambiance is high class new your 50s eatery. Love it.

J. G.

Have been twice and will be back again. Great from start to finish. The food, atmosphere inside and staffs knowledge/service is one of the best I've experienced. Hubert can hold their heads high knowing they are one Sydney's best restaurant experiences. Recommendations - Roe Boat, pork terrine and duck breast.

P. C.

Very comfortable place to take clients out. Dinner service gets a little loud with live Jazz. A little pricy but the delicious food, drinks and service balances out. 90-120min setting time is tough especially when it’s a business dinner but the staff is very accomodating to transfer service to bar. Keep spending and you stay.

S. J.

This place makes you forget your in Sydney. You walk down the dark wooden stair case into a jazz wonderland filled with such a vibe and delicious French food

R. M.

Fantastic location, good service and decent food 🥘 (my burger 🍔 was delicious but the slab of raw onion took away from the delicious beef patty).. my friend had the croque monsieur and having tried it I can confirm it was delicious as well.. Hubert is all the rage and I was eager to try it but after being there I'm not confident the hype is warranted. To be fair the ambience and decor is amazing so definitely check it out

J.

Food was great and the the lady surving us at the bar on Thursday evening was super lovely and personable.

B. F.

Wow. Fantastic food, great ambience, and amazing wine list. Live jazz and excellent service - can't recommend highly enough. I'll be back!

T.

Came here this evening for my wife’s birthday. Absolutely cracking French food with great live music, atmosphere and service. Big shout out to Jacob our waiter, thanks for making our night so special. We’ll definitely come again!

K. C.

Beautiful retro ambience hailing from the early 1920s. Slick interior adds a certain class to the atmosphere. Musical entertainment in the evening also helps to foster this mood. Hubert has quite a large array of drinks available from cocktails to champagne (real champagne). The food on offer is a nice blend of French with modern elements. The pigs blood is a must order! Staff and service were well spoken and attentive. On the price generally a bit higher than what one would estimate for the portion but quality is definitely quite good

Hubert When Hubert first opened, there was a lot of hype surround this French inspired restaurant. It was the “place to go” and bookings were practically impossible. We went a fair time after the hype had died down, which allowed us to get a group booking at a reasonable time. Entering from Bligh Street, you’re met with a huge wooden door and then the spiral staircase down to the restaurant is what strikes you first. As you stroll down this staircase which is lined with bottles of alcohol and dimmed lights, and you feel like you’re stepping back many years. As you enter the restaurant, there is a bar to the right and a huge dining space of tables, booths and feels like you’re in Europe. Fringed lamps, candles with dripping wax and a stage with a piano is set up and as waiters move around the room, it feels vintage, romantic, classy and sophisticated. Whilst the restaurant is expensive, the banquet menu was extremely good value. For $85, you get 10 courses to share, needing a four-person minimum for the meal. Beginning with bread and charcuterie is good to pick from whilst you’re setting in to a drink or two. Don’t fill up too much as there is a lot of food ahead of you. The duck parfait was super cute: a plate of liver mousse, topped with bread “ducks”. The market vegetables with pickled mussels and aioli were colourful and fresh. One of my favourite foods is beef tartare and this one here is good quality wagyu served with some extremely nicely flavoured French fries. The main dish of the evening is a whole chicken with bread sauce, extremely moist and easy to devour (if you’re not already too full). The small strips of layered potato in a buttery sauce were incredible and with a salad of red velvet lettuce and herbs made the sides to our main. What else could you have for dessert, but Crème Caramel! Light and tasty, made with egg custard and a bitter caramel. If you do want to try a little more, there’s a $125 banquet too. Ala carte would suit a duo of diners, but any more than that, get a banquet as it allows you to sample more options, and the key favourites from this top restaurant. The drinks are high quality, the wine list is incredible and the service is impeccable. The waiters are efficient and unobtrusive and food comes out in a timely manner. Highly suggested for your next classy dining experience in Sydney.

K. N.

Hubert was great, had a great drink selection. It's warm and cosy and accepted us in for walk-ins . Menu was great, filled up on bread paired for all the great options. Had the pate, steak, tartare , escargot and kimchi gratin and it was incredibly filling.

L. I.

Have been to Hubert multiple times because I love it that much! The ambience is really beautiful, with candlelight and a winding staircase. Sitting at the bar offers a really great opportunity to chat with the lovely bartenders. Food is so tasty - would definitely recommend the Pommes Anna and Chicken Fricassèe.

R. R.

The ambiance is amazing. The foods, wine and service are very good. Staff are extremely knowledgeable and make great recommendations, I love the Crabe et Espelette particularly. Special thanks to our waiter of that night, Giulio.

J. C.

Restaurant Hubert has to be my favourite restaurant in Sydney hands down! Fine, intimate French restaurant where the service is second to none and food is impeccable. Menu is on the smaller side although every dish is cooked to perfection. The Malakoff, Buvette Steak, Pommes Anna (the most delicious sauce, I could bathe in it) and the Murray Cod Grenobloise are absolutely flawless!! Even the cultured butter is addictive, you will be tempted to ask for bottomless baskets of bread! Perfect spot for date night!

M. D.

Food was amazing. Everything from the bread to the mains were tasty. The chicken was so juicy and flavoursome as was the beef. An overall rather decent price. The service was great until the end when we were waiting for the bill and were clearly getting ready to leave when the host rushed us to leave due to 'mobility issues' haha wth?? (tables around us had people just sitting and talking well after their meals were finished, but were left alone - how about giving them a nudge??). I would have left a 5+ rating if I could but that last part being rushed when we were already leaving was unnecessary.

My boyfriend took me here as a surprise for my birthday and I was BLOWN away! An underground French restaurant playing jazz/soul music, dimly lit surroundings with beautiful art and an amazing romantic atmosphere. The duck parfait was a stab in the dark, I haven't had anything like it and though I enjoyed the first bite, I wasn't quite feeling the aftertaste. It was a miss for me but it is my first foray into French cuisine! The duck parfait came with bread and butter and I am not sure what kind of butter it was but it was MAGNIFIQUE! So good! What kind of creamyness was I tasting? The best butter I have ever had in my life! The chicken fricassee! 😚👌🏼 *chefs kiss* Definitely the highlight of my night. The chicken was so tender and so well cooked. That white sauce underneath the chicken... I don't know what it was exactly but it was SOOOO GOOD with the chicken! Amazing! I was so impressed! I was hesitant with the kimchi gratin because I love kimchi so very much and am very picky with it however I was genuinely surprised! Crunchy kimchi, didn't retain any of the spicyness of it but was still really tasty! And then the Fruits en Surprise for dessert and yes wow. I love fruits, sorbet, and ice cream! I especially loved the guava(I think it was guava. I am so bad with fruits) and the lemon! The strawberry wasn't fresh so that was a bit disappointing but overall I loved it so much!

D. C.

Arrived at 3:55 to make sure we got a seat for the 4-6 Appertif Happy Hour. This included $10 negronis, $5 wine, beers, G+T and highballs. The small but tasty food menu was also a bargain. $3 for a bowl of Sicilian olives, $10 for a gourmet cheese burger, $5 for the best Pate you'll ever have, $3 devilled eggs and crispy fried zucchini flowers. Will be back to try the full menu.

M. C.

Through the doors, you spiral down with soft lighting, carpet and wooden interior. A lovely ambience sets the mood for a great date night. The staff are Wonderful and friendly with some good insight into the meal choices. We had the oysters, follows by scallops, followed by the whole chicken in bread sauce with a side of beautiful pomme Anna! dessert was a delicious chapagne jelly and an ice cream, meringue and honey comb. Theres also a nice selection of spirits

P. L.

It was a lovely place to take a person for a date and I went with my French partner who enjoyed her experience. She did find a few things disappointing like certain foods missing that she loved from home but she was glad that some of the staff actually spoke French. The service was attentive and the food and wine was of great quality. Definitely on the pricier side but it is to be expected. May treat myself to a bottle of thousand dollar wine next time.

M. M.

Offering escargot, red wine from Provence's Cotes de Rhone, and a Bordeaux Merlot, whilst listening to Jazz to beat the Band, as if you were transplanted to Preservation Hall in New Orleans, with service par excellence. You can do the math from here ;)) Bon appetit and Bonsoir. Thank you Andy, et.al. Didn't catch the Band's name, but you will surely find them there, at Restaurant Hubert :')

F.

Must-try in Sydney, how cool is it to eat in a live jazz club with a private theatre. The second time I went was not as amazing as the first though (this always happens duh). I tried my first 1kg steak here in Hubert and it was absolutely worth it, my parents loved it for my mum's 50th birthday. Everyone should not miss Vacherin - the meringue dessert and the big mushroom omg YUM!

Y. M.

The restaurant and atmosphere was fantastic. However, I was surprised to see that I was charged an additional 11% to the bill without my knowledge on my card statement. So double check the bill figure matches the figure on the payment terminal.

K. D.

Booking staff were sooo helpful. Wait staff excellent. Cool jazz and great food on the night. Wine list was a shock though, lol.

M. R.

Spacious venue but with a very cozy feel. Flavorful food with clever presentation. Order a few Petite Barques to start off your meal, sea urchin and the trout roe are super tasty!

M. L.

Just fantastic food and servicing. Had my birthday dinner with my partner there yesterday, everyone was really friendly and wasn’t pushy as well. Delicious food, will definitely return.

L. S.

What an amazing night. The staff were so attentive, the atmosphere was fabulous and coming out of lockdown, the tastebuds were brought back to life. Highly recommend this dining experience

C. Z. (.

Excellent foods, beautiful restaurant and great live music. Staff are very friendly and professional.

M. Y. N.

What a beautiful restaurant with a French Belle epoque decor and even an in house theater. There's the 4-6pm happy hour with 5-10 dollar cocktails and snacks. Food is French but with some slight twists such as escargots with XO sauce. The boudin noir and parfait were great.

A. S.

Such a beautiful place , really feels like you go back in time to a jazz club. Highly recommend to go between Mon-Thur so you can enjoy the live band. The stuff were taking care of us perfectly, the alcohol selection was amazing and i loved everything about it. Will come back 100%

N.

Wow AAA+++. Can not speak more highly of this place the ambiance the food the service was absolutely amazing I highly recommend this restaurant. My tip try the steak thank me later ;)

C. W.

Great ambience and music choice. The cuisine is best-served as well. Will definitely bring my friends over.

L. T.

Basic French food with a twist and done right... We had the lunch set menu. Probably the best creme caramel that I have ever had! Love the kimchi gratin, and the frites were perfect..

M. T.

Great French restaurant in Sydney's CBD with a cool ambience. We had the Wagyu beef tartare, escargot with XO sauce, mushroom au poivre, and kimchi au gratin. The kimchi was our favourite...yum! We need to go back as a larger group to try their renowned chicken, which only comes as a whole chicken. The also have a great wine list and amazing selection of spirits behind the bar.

M. S.

Today, I had one of the best nights in Sydney. This place is special. The ambiance, the music, the service and the food. Everything was perfect. I highly recommend this place specially for dating or celebrating events.

K. D.

Visited Restaurant Hubert with some work colleagues for their apperitif session (happy hour, 4 - 6pm). What a great promo for a fantastic venue!! We enjoyed $5 G&Ts, a $10 Normandy cheeseburger and a $3 devilled egg. The burger was seriously juicy and tasty AF, G&Ts were delicious and the devilled egg was superbly moreish. Will definitely be finding an excuse to visit again and again!

J. M.

I have been meaning to dine ever since it was highly recommended by Jamie Oliver, and that's how I found out about it. I dined with my advertising friend to have our apperitif, and we just decided to eat small portions and we tried a few ones. All I remember, they were all really good! But the ones that made the most mark were the duck parfait, malakoff and escargot! It was packed even though it is a weekday and we arrived there like 6pm. People don't stop coming so I can understand why the waiter was very insisting if we have want more drinks or any order. The music was just about to start when we were about to leave before 8pm. It was an amazing first dining experience. SO hard to find good French cuisine in Sydney, Hubert delivers. Even the way they present the food when you order, all consistent on how you see photos on the internet. Quality in every order you get. Validates the price and gives justice to your experience. Definitely I will be back this 2019 for their movie thing.

H. W.

Lovely warm atmosphere with great live music and amazing food! Personal favourite was the Duck Parfait. Good to get there early to get a table or expect a long wait.

B. C.

Great atmosphere, friendly, well trained staff, very good cooking. When you enter you actually go down quite a few stairs into a dimly lit, large room. If you enjoy jazz the music is excellent also. Nice ambiance. Love the live music and the food is amazing! Candles light the tables creating a romantic atmosphere. Not cheap but you just saved yourself an airfare.

C. Q.

Exquisite restaurant 11/10. Beautiful atmosphere with live band on thursday. Lovely staff, great food. Definitely one of the best french restaurants ive been to.

O. O.

The food very delicious,the staff service very good, thank you very much,see you next time 😄

B.

Located in a basement, the restaurant has a drinks bar where you can relax with a drink while you wait for your table. Tonight I felt like some snails; if you are a fan of garlic (I'm not really) there will be enough in this dish. Chicory was the waiter's recommendation, and these two dishes together made for a very nice meal if you have a good appetite but had a big lunch. The wine list is good, and the delicious bread was complimentary. I always ask to sit at the (other) bar, regardless dining solo or partnered. Come here for the atmosphere, the music, the food.

D. H.

I Love love love this place. Food is delicious and always on point! Whether it is a cosy Occassion for two or a gathering of many, it's such a delight. The decor transports you to another era and the food is cooked to perfection. Must orders: Escargot, gnocchi, whole chicken. I've never had a gnocchi melt in my mouth like this dish at Hubert's. The chicken is cooked to perfect and served boneless (other than the drumstick) and the skin is light and crispy. The escargot in XO sauce is next level. you'll definitely ask for more complimentary bread to soak up as much sauce as possible. No room for wasting such a delicious flavour. Highly recommended, get in early or grab a bunch of friends and book a table!

N. N.

Great location, beautiful decor and fantastic atmosphere. Wide selection of delicious food & drinks, and friendly & attentive service. Highly recommended. There's a time limit of 2 hours. Booking is only for 4 people or more, but they have a nice bar in there as well.

C. K.

Live music only on Thursdays. They don't accept reservations unless u have 6 or more pax in your group. We arrived at about 8pm and waited about 15 mins for a table while we sat at the bar. We had: - baguette bread with salted butter $6 - pickled octopus ~$22 - steak with fries $35 - melon dessert ~$20 They allow u to try the wines before purchasing which is nice. A glass costs about $15 but they sell more varieties in bottles. Service was great and our tap water glass is always topped up. The ambience is old English and perfect for a night of conversations. Love the candles!!

C. M.

Great night! Service was awesome, in particular the sommelier who recommended some amazing wines for our evening. We had the petit banquet which is a weird mix of foods to put together, especially if you’re trying to pair a wine to it. The duck parfait was the stand out. Delicious! The jazz band then made the night something really fun. Would definitely go back on a week night.

J. B.

You need to attempt their mixed drinks and the purpose went so well with the nourishment. It's not shoddy but rather absolutely worth each penny. Celebrate a birthday with completely delectable sustenance and beverages. Administration was exceptionally obliging and staff were agreeable and well mannered.

v. c.

one of my favourite French restaurant, lovely service and the environment and atmosphere inside the restaurant was just fabulous. Must go on weekday nights to enjoy the live jazz. Very romantic restaurant will sure be a good place for a cute date or night out !

R. T.

Just enjoyed a wonderful meal. Upon checking into hotel after a 9-hours flight from Hong Kong, I contemplated ordering the usual less than stellar room service, but adventurous spirit prevailed and I turned to trusty Google for late night dining options, which is sparse in the CBD area. The reviews convinced me to make the 10-min walk from Sheraton on the Park. Restaurant Hubert is in the basement and has that chillaxed speakeasy vibe. Clientele seems to be mostly hipsters and young professionals. I settled myself into a table near the bar. Big drink menu came first followed by the bar menu. Although the waiter had to seek permission, I asked for and was given the full dinner menu, which may be usually only served in the separate, nicer sit down area. Upon request, the waiter suggested the Bavette Steak and Pommes Anna. I'm not usually fond of potatoes but I sure was glad I took him up on his recommendations. The combo was awesome! Pair the whole thing with some nice craft beer, and I would say this was one of the best late night meals ever. I would highly recommend this place for a small intimate friendly gathering either for the great food or just drinks. For me, this will definitely be a future go-to gastropub for my late arrivals into Sydney! (The photos are on my way out and doesn't do the bar and main dining area justice... simply to show you the feel of the place.)

A. Z.

Nice atmosphere the food was amazing but I'm not into French too much.

B. H.

One of the best fine dining restaurants in Sydney!! Love the food esp escargot, pate, steak and gnocchi!!

A. W.

An authentic piece of Paris in the centre of Sydney CBD. Dark and atmospheric you know you're in for a treat the moment you descend the staircase. Food is perfectly French, we had the whole goose, paté, steak tartare and boudin noir. Wine list is solid but quickly becomes expensive. Reservations currently not taken for tables under 6 but the bar is a great place for a warm up Martini. The main restaurant had a grand piano in it and next door there is a theatre where they put on cabaret. A great night out and also a good for a long Friday lunch.

K. W.

lovely classy place for dinner and drinks service was great and love the ambiance really enjoyable

J. Y.

A great dining experience！ escargot I think it’s a great dish other dishes are also great

J. E. M.

Dreaming of: oysters, crab, tuna tartare (paired with Chablis), mushroom, wagu t-bone, kimchi gratin (paired with a Burgundy or Brunello) and the choccie tarte (with an espresso martini)... all while sitting in 1920s Paris (ahem Sydney 2021). Cannot wait to step back into Restaurant Hubert, lose track of time, enjoy the fantastic service and the highest quality produce. À bientôt!

K. C.

I don't think there's a more special place in Sydney. It's my favourite. By far. Walking down the wood laden walls your ears are slowly filled with glasses clinking and quiet murmurs as it gets deeper down. When you arrive the atmosphere is grand. A bar to the right a grand dining area to the left, you feel transported to another time. A time where French dining is at its best and jazz is the standard. I mean what can I say. The food (pre my vegan days) is just amazing. From the humble table bread to the urchin to the buttery fish of the day to the sauce of the steak frites. There's never been a place that's made better non pretentious delicious grub in a Sydney in a more beautiful venue. The best.

L. S.

OMG! We could not fault this place. We went as a couple on a 'date night'. Had to wait for table but they kept in touch with us and got us in as soon as they could. So glad we waited! The service was impeccable. The wine was recommended to us and was perfect. The food - to die for!! Please please make sure you have/share the vacherin dessert (pictured). You're welcome! We'll be back x

m. h.

Love the Jazz, Vibe/Atmospehere, the drinks (the Bordeaux Pinot Noir is exceptional) and at happy hour?! Unreal. Get the burger. Loved it.

J.

Feel like being transported to a better place ... then take the double staircase down to this French Bistro which is possibly the best in Sydney. Red velvet curtains, mood lighting, timber, old wine bottles and high seated booths. The food is inventively authentic but above all else is DELICIOUS!! A superb crafted wine list ranging from Torbrek reds to Traditional Tuscany to The best French wines to be found in Sydney CBD. Outstanding customer service. Buzzing atmosphere but a great place to catch up with friends, a first date or a romantic night with your partner. Order the whole chicken - AMAZING, steak tartare with fries and the Mushroom. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

M.

Intimate restaurant with dim lighting and candles, we were lucky to catch the live band as well. Chicken fricassé (could feed 3pp) and steak tartare were delicous.

A.

Escargot, roe boat, steak tartare and a live jazz band. What an atmosphere.

D. U.

Great choice for a business dinner. We had the shared menu which was great. The usual french fare including 🐌 Good friendly service.Really interesting decor.. down two sets of wooden stairs..no windows but heavy curtains give a cosy feel.. plus making it easy to hear table conversation. Worth a visit..

M. B.

Have been here for dinner a couple of times and to events in the venue. All outstanding! Service is phenomenal, decor is just wow! Love the live music and the food is amazing! Can’t wait to go back

L. V.

Every dish that came out was superb and the service is lovely. If you're looking for a romantic candle lit dinner with excellent food this is the place! I wouldn't get the gin martini again but that is completely up to personal preference. Make sure to get the parfait!!

O. L.

Excellent steak and unique set up including an old theater. Services are professional and friendly, but prices are premium

Came across this on a blog while looking for a late night eat. We walked in to what looked like a set of a movie! Just that intriguing. Two levels down and we walked into a bustling restaurant, despite it being well past midnight. We were sat at, what I would consider, a very small table for four. However having ordered, we were moved to a bigger table upon request. Unfortunately we could only order off the late night menu (our fault), but that had some very interesting options. Having ordered the food, we were trying to pick our drinks from an extensive menu. And when I say extensive; think two to three pages of whiskies, around four to five for wine... It was a task and we were pressed for time as their bar was closing. The maître d’ was very helpful with our beverages and took his time to explain in detail, thus making our choice a tad bit easier. The beverages and the food was just delectable! The steak was beautifully cooked! The snails were perfectly done and so was the burger! Unfortunately we didn’t have enough time to finish our meal as the restaurant was closing. Albeit, we were informed well ahead that we had limited time as they were on a strict license. Such a shame and we wish we’d gone in earlier... Was a lovely meal and well worth the money spent. Special note out to our waiter. Unfortunately we could not ask him for his name. He was the highlight of the night, along with our food! His knowledge and suggestions on the food really helped us, but it was his attitude and bubbly character that added that extra bit to our meal! To be frank, when we were seated initially, it was a rushed seating at a smaller table and we didn’t feel as welcome as we would later on. Once the waiter took charge of our table, our views changed drastically! Thank you for that! Will definitely return the next time we are in Sydney!

G. H.

Some places try to be cool, but places like Huberts don't need to try, they just are cool. The cocktails are great and I recommend the gin martinis.

S. F. L.

Absolutely love the vibe of this bar and I can’t wait to come back to try the menu in the main dining room with the live music! Came here on a Friday eve for their aperitivo hour from 4-6pm, a variety of drinks at $5 including a G&T and w selection of bar snacks for under $5. Had that terrine for $5 and devilled egg for $3. Great ambience, drinks, food and service.

h.

Oh hello! Nice to meat you! Could only fit myself in at lunch but it very satisfying and I had a lovely time savouring each and every bite in this beautiful joint. I look forward to more happy yummy moments with you!

J. E.

Really amazing meal tonight at Restaurant Hubert. Impeccable service and wine suggestions. We had the banquet menu which is a lot of food and really well priced. The fresh shucked oysters with a delicious vinaigrette, duck parfait on warm freshly baked bread and the kimchi gratin were fantastic! The cote de bouef and pommel Anna were to die for! Cooked perfectly and extremely complimentary of each other! On of the best versions of “steak and chips” money can buy. Such a great Sydney restaurant! Had an amazing time! Will definitely return.

J.

Beautiful restaurant with unpretentious ambience. We ordered the baguette, oysters, duck parfait, escargot, beef tartare, chicken fricasse and pommes anna to share between three people which was $300 including drinks. Cannot fault the food, service or venue.

G. J.

Owner has a heart of gold, that is the root of the growth of this restaurant. go Hubert!! Best tiramisu, oysters were fresh tasty, prawns cooked to perfexion

L. J.

This place is living to its reputation, a must-visit restaurant but overpriced. The location is amazing and takes you to whatever Americans think a French bistro is. The service is top notch and you'll definitely be well taken care of. The food, however, is disappointing and represents all the things about the pretentious French cuisine of the Sydney French restaurant scene - it's average but somehow comes with the "French tax" price tag. The dishes come so quickly that it's obvious that they were waiting in the oven for a few hours already. The French fries were frozen (even still on the inside), quite disappointing when there are only 6 side dishes and that they are not cheap. Probably won't come back, but glad I got to see what the fuss is all about.

Nice environment and decorations - 100% worth the visit- food was very very interesting Favourites were the gnocci, duck parfait and the sorbet desert

D. G.

Second time visiting Hubert... the service is always exceptional as is the wine list and recommendations (especially the Burgundy if that is your thing). First time I visited the beef tartare blew my mind, this time it was the Gateau Chiffon dessert - please please please NEVER take that off the menu!

R.

T-born steak was the best I’ve ever had.

B. V.

My new favourite restaurant in Sydney! What an amazing restaurant, fantastic set up, very cosy and pleasant, perfect lighting, temperature and noise levels. This is an ideal place for a date! Most importantly their food is absolute perfection. Raw scallops are something else, steak and clams... wow! Service was super attentive and friendly, the manager does a great job at running this operation.

R. F.

Fantastic night out. Great food, service and ambiance.

M. L.

Unbelievable food, service and atmosphere

T. R.

Lives up to the hype that’s for sure! food was fantastic - every single dish! French gnocchi, tartare, steak frites, duck parfait, mille-feuille, burger (apparently- I didn’t get to try it)

C. S.

EVERYTHING tasted so good (especially the steak) and love the vibe so much that we went twice during our visit to Sydney. Dining here is a must.

Q. l.

love the environment, live jazz band was amazing, food was very good too. friendly staffs. Must make booking if you want to get a table .

A. F.

Fine food cooked beautifully. Fantastic service to boot. A great place to celebrate a big occasion.

M. M.

Amazing experience - The ambiance, the service and the food was excellent! Loved the layered potato and Mille-feuille

H. N.

An amazing restaurant with awesome food!

R. C.

Has the most delicious chicken along with the simple flavourful beef tartae. I recommend coming here for the food but also to experience the atmosphere within their lovely decor! Staff is on point and food wait time is low

J. C.

Beautiful venue, lovely bar and restaurant, food to die for all the staff are friendly and professional. Best post lockdown place to visit definitely lifted my spirits after visiting there. When you finish there you can wonder down the road and continue your night at Frankies. 😃

D. R.

Simply amazing from the food to the ambience the jazz band to the incredible staff! It honestly feels like you are walking down into a Paris restaurant! Loved it and will definitely be back!

D. R. L.

Upon entering and heading down the timber panelled staircase, you know you are in for a treat. Love stepping back in time with this classic French inspired theme and decore. The ambience and back ground music sets the scene for a fantastic night out. A very well organised Restaurant with extremely tasty modern French cuisine. Delicious and very sumptuous. Staff are very friendly with great service and I would highly recommend a visit. Jazz during week nights, sets the seen and is a must. Loved it.

S. H.

Attended Hubert as a guest while on business in Sydney. Simply outstanding. Lovely food, fantastic ambience. Was a little bit surprised at the speed of the service (as in slow, we ate over about 4 hours) but as we settled in for the evening, I ended up really enjoying this very French experience. Plenty of time to talk and share laughter and stories, Thanks to my host HP, for a wonderful evening #reinventlearning

L. D.

I was so impressed by everything at Hubert's. I can't actually decide my favourite part! The staff were so warm and friendly (sadly not always the case in high-end restaurants). Gnocchi was the best I have ever had. Steak out-did Bistecca in my opinion. Cab-franc wine (recommended by waiter) was beautiful. Atmosphere was so lovely - both the music and the aesthetic. Highly recommend.

S. H.

The atmosphere and the food was amazing! Had the banquet and ordered a few extra steaks and everything was cooked perfectly!

K. O.

Had a fabulous dinner, ordered the Chicken to share, snails, and a Negroni # one of the best cocktails I've had. Great atmosphere, like a French underground bunker.

R. A.

A wonderful ambience, the food is fantastic, the staff are great, very friendly and helpful with a good humour, the decor is amazing and the main dining room is great but the rooms are better, can be considered expensive but it's worth every cent, much larger than expected and a unique entryway and stairs well worth a visit

R. M.

Restaurant Hubert has been a long time coming for us. With no bookings and sometimes difficult to get a table, we went early on a Monday to ensure success. After descending two flights of stairs and an amazing collection of small bottles (see photo) we arrived to be greeted at the crossroads between the bar and dining room. The decor and atmosphere of Hubert were exquisite, with rich timber panelling and romantic candlelight. Treating ourselves to a pre-dinner drink in the bar, it was not long before we were led to the dining room, where we were seated and an excellent waiter quickly helped us with a trio of entrees. The dining area was equally well decorated, with several framed pictures against the back wall and an ambience that encourages conversation. The Malakoff was cheesy and good, whilst the Duck Parfait and Hubert Baguette tastily staved off hunger in anticipation of the mains to come. The drinks menu is extensive, with a vast range of beers from across the globe and ample cocktails, both modern and traditional. The wine list is also plentiful, though we didn't take the evening quite that far. After ordering another round of drinks, we progressed to choose a shared main of Chicken Fricassee with an assortment sides to share. These included the Salade, Lentils Vinaigrette and Pommes Anna. Although the sides were excellent, the Chicken Fricassee, which we had heard very positive things about, turned out to be slightly disappointing, taking a back seat to the entrees and sides. Pushing on, we also ordered two desserts to share between the four of us. The Creme Caramel was rich and difficult to finish, but the Quince Clafoutis was excellent and well worth the wait. Overall, Restaurant Hubert is a lovely establishment, well decorated with a spacious yet intimate atmosphere. The food was good, though I would recommend selecting a main other than the chicken. There was also one bearded waiter who was a bit rude, but the gentleman that served us the majority of the time was exceptional. Atmosphere: 5/5 Service: 4/5 Food: 3/5 Drinks: 4/5

J. H. K.

The restaurant is located downstairs and has a great ambience. Although they were not generous with food portions, the flavors were well-balanced, and I liked the fact that they had a wide variety of wines and beers to go along with the food.

J. M.

Probably the best French place to come to I. Sydney, rivalled only by the more casual Felix down the road. It’s hard to fault the food. The 1kg t bone steak we had was simply amazing. The sausage, soufflé and other side dishes - just superb. What wasn’t amazing was the service from the restaurant staff. The chap we had thought clearly that he had somewhere better to go.

O. D.

Great food, great service, great wines, great venue. Only reason I'm not giving 5 is it is very expensive for the type of food it is. Banquet is $110 or $150 roughly, they give heaps of food but it's a heavy price once you start adding drinks.

B. A.

Love this place. Everything we ordered was excellent. Band was awesome! Service fantastic

J. O.

Finally, something in Sydney which is genuinely “New York”, and not just pretend. Very cool, very popular, because it’s very bloody good. Beautiful food. $80 between two of us. A lighter meal, but still very filling. $100 on the wine, but that says more about us than the restaurant.

M.

Just go here, you basically can't go wrong. If it's your first time, try: - Gnocchi Parisienne - Soufflé au Gruyère - Prime Beef Tartare - Bavette - Pommes Anna

D.

I used to think Obar has the best steak in Sydney until I had this one in Hubert. The only flaw is 300g is way not enough to me. I can finish twice the size.

A. A.

As you go through the wooden door you are taken away to another world, with great food and great alcohol. I wasn't expecting much but I was blown away by the whole experience, from the food to the drink list, a must when you get the chance!!!

H. O.

Excellent food and service, extensive wine and spirit menu. The ambience here is amazing with classic French music and live music playing in the background. Give the parfait a go to start and try the escargot. Ask for extra bread to lap up the plate. The creme caramel is a good desert option. Finish up at the bar or head to Kittyhawk down the road to finish off the night.

K. M.

Come here during the week they have a live jazz band to tantalise your ears while you feast on delectable french cuisine. I had the snails (average), the winner was the vego gnocchi - simply divine.

J. S.

Hubert (sister restaurant to the baxter inn whiskey club) is a 5 minute walk from Whnyard station. It has an amazing vibe as soon as you enter. I suggest going on Wednesday or Thursdays since there is a live band performing. The food is good, but I was not amazed by it (although I am a harsh critic). Definitely a must on a visit to Sydney!!

F. m.

This place exceeded my expectations. Everything was delicious. Gonna come back again

B. Y.

Top notch cocktails and Nori flavoured fries. Thanks for the fabulous night out! Steak tartare was fabulous as were the Aperol Spritz and Pastis Fizz. In this place, you suddenly forget about the huge killjoy that is the Sydney lockout laws, Sydney nightlife is well and truly alive here.

C. B.

Thoroughly enjoyed my dinner last night as part of a birthday group. Couldn’t stop helping myself to the duck parfait and baguette but the winner of the evening were the esgargots with their special Hubert XO sauce - not to be missed if you come here. The creme caramel was delicious to end the evening with. Great ambience and service too. One very very small critique is that there were a few wonky lamp shades, but that became an amusing banter around the table ;) hope to come back again soon.

U. R.

Absolutely everything here was spot on. It’s our new favourite restaurant. The service was friendly, funny and attentive without being overbearing and our waiter gave us great guidance in what to order. The cod though was the best I’ve had. Melt in your mouth good and my husband who isn’t a dessert guy still talks about the Mille feuille. The wine of course is excellent and the jazz band added a great upbeat ambience. Can’t wait to come back.

S.

Huberts is an outstanding bar and restaurant with all the attributes of a genuine top notch European eatery. From the 'killer' martinis (& other cocktails ) to the superb food - the Chateaubriand is outstanding and would not be out of place at a Michelin star restaurant in France When we noticed a relatively minor issue on the bill this was fixed in a heartbeat by a senior member when we raised it after leaving the venue. It has got to rate in the top Sydney venues for a great night out

C. R.

Second time here and just as good as the first. Service is quick and efficient and the food is fresh and lovely. I recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for somewhere special. The atmosphere is romantic and relaxed at the same time and the staff are really lovely. Definitely recommend.

H. C.

Ok, 2nd time round, I got to try their famous Chicken Fricassèe ($85). Whole chicken with bread sauce & green garlic. Whole chicken is brined so it’s super tender and juicy. Spectacular! Malakoff ($15). Fried Gruyère, Dijon mustard, dill pickle. Cheese lovers, you will not be disappointed! Gooey gruyere encased in a soft pillowy fried cheese case.

T. F.

Finally, this place is open for lunch. Such a cool venue and great decor. I was avoiding waiting in a queue to experience this place and I was so pleased to enjoy a fantastic lunch. The escargot was divine. And steak frites was cooked to perfection. Loved this place.

M. S.

We had the degustation menu. Every dish was excellent and the staff were good. Overall positive xp. The steak was a little rare for my liking but was very nice.

K. O.

Absolutely jammin vibe!! Old school style with food to match! Professional yet not stuffy service completes the package! Go there!

J. B.

Lovely old style supper club. The petite banquet was excellent for a first experience, looking forward to going back as the chateaubriand looked superb. The service was attentive and the vibe was very relaxed. Highly recommend. My favourite on the night was the terrine, very silky and vibrant and traditional- simply lovely.

L. R.

Perfect food, service and ambience. The live music suited the vibe and I felt like I was in Paris. The menu is classic and done exceptionally well. Would come back here again for other special occasions.

K. G.

This was a great find, hidden down two flight of stairs behind two large doors. Staff were very accommodating and I could not the service. Great atmosphere with a live band playing and their catch of the day was superb.

A. J.

A rarity in Sydney City these days: a good eating place where the kitchen is open past 9:30PM. Great atmosphere; very good French-style food; good wine and spirits list; friendly staff; reasonably priced.

N. G.

My all time favourite restaurant in Sydney! The service is impeccable. The bavette steak, gnocchi and parfait are literally to die for! I can’t recommend this place enough.

L. N.

The food was delicious. I loved the exquisite taste of the duck parfait spread across the buttered bread. The crab was just beautiful and fresh with the tiny bread. My piece of steak was cooked perfectly. I loved the ambience here and the live jazz band

M. D.

A favorite of mine for 3 reasons: 1) Live Jazz - Sydney has a shortage of high end live music venues that serve exceptional food. 2) Service - Shout out to Andy W. and his team! 3) Crème Caramel - Best in town! Make a night out of Hubert, you won't be disappointed!

L. T.

One of my favourite restaurants in Sydney. Definitely a place to dress up for. Once you push open the big wooden doors and walk down the staircase lined with thousands of miniature bottles of alcohol, be prepared to be transported to an opulent postwar French restaurant and bar. You will be faced with the difficult choice of heading to the Bridge bar where food and wine is more on the fancy side -- great setting for quiter dates, or to continue down the stairs to the Hubert's restaurant or bar. If you turn to your left, be prepared for a deliciously hearty meal, surrounded by walls lined with thousands of wine bottles, or head to the right to have a more relaxed chat at the bar. Either way, the ambience and great service alone, will not disappoint.

F. D.

Amazing place with a touch of velvet. The food flavour are well balanced and they have an amazing selection of wine. Definitely a place to put on top list!

K. M.

It starts with the discrete entry through heavy wooden doors in a quiet part of the city, down a dimly lit circular stairway until you arrive at an atmospheric 1920's style French restaurant playing very cool and varied music. The bar is stacked with spirits, full wine racks above the bar, and a decent selection of local and international beers on offer. And then there's the food. Every mouthful is bursting with flavour, with richness only the French can pull off. We had nine small dishes (though not stingy portions) between my wife and I, including two desserts, thoroughly enjoyed every morsel, and had to be rolled back up the staircase at the end of the night. The standouts for us were the oeufs en gelée and the tartare de thon. We'll be back!

G. H.

Love this place! If at all possible I recommend ducking out of work early and making the most of their happy hours (4-6). Dimmed lights, candlelit tables, great service and smooth jazz. What more can I ask for?!

M. T.

My new favourite! Incredible experience from the live music to the food to the decor and service. Couldn't fault it! I'd recommend to anyone!

J. O.

I went to lunch with a mate and was surprised to see a jazz band playing The food was amaxing

C. S.

Absolutely fantastic ! Great food, great entertainment, great service and awesome vibes !! Would definitely recommend

G. H.

Delicious food, great vibe especially when the jazz music is playing.

Y. Y.

It’s okay. Wouldn’t be opposed to going again, wouldn’t recommend it personally to friends or family. Cool ambience, food was well cooked & presented but nothing dazzling.

A. W.

A number of visits and always enjoyable with attentive and friendly staff. Food is reliably good and well priced. Desserts are always a highlight here for me as is the vodka martini. Few better places in Sydney.

J. C. (.

Absolutely fantastic evening sitting at the bar trying some of the huge selection of spirits, and then moving over to the restaurant side for an amazing meal. Bartender texted our waiter to inform him of our birthday, so they suprised us with extra dessert and candles. Brilliant experience all round.

J. S.

Restaurant Hubert was a lovely experience, and the accomodating staff were a wonder. Obviously it is quite spendy, however the quality of the food was superb, and despite some changes in taste and preference from my fellow patrons, the staff accommodated our needs with no fuss or charge. Very happy, would recommend!

A. D.

Lovely place for dinner with jazz music accompanying you. The pommes anna and le petit aioli are superb !!

J. G.

My favourite restaurant in Sydney! There's something special about Hubert that keeps pulling me back, wether it's the food, service or ambience I'm not sure. But it's all 5 star and I can't get enough of it!

R. C.

In syndey, restaurants most are over-rated, but not this one, excellent service, food and wines are azmazimg, you must visit here for fine dining!

Q. K.

Amazing french inspired food. Great ambiance. Awesome staff.

K. K.

This was the first time I've visited this uber cool underground dining and drink destination! Visited Hubert with a girl friend for drinks who suggested both the venue and the amazing Negroni cocktail, highly recommend and I will definitely will be back!

G.

Hubert it's our absolute favourite restaurant, it's like escaping to Paris, but in the hearth of Sydney! We book it often for our birthdays or anniversary. Food is divine, we love their liver patè, steak tartar and baked chicken (please bring back the Baba rhum!) Service is friendly and attentive, atmosphere is relaxed and often there is live music playing in the background. Highly recommended for a special romantic night.

G. F.

Decent French restaurant run by enthusiasts. Make sure you book a table ahead

J. N.

I had a wonderful dining experience at Hubert. Sophisticated old school French ambience serving delicious food, especially the duck parfait and XO escargot. Highlight was the burger!!

L. T.

Delicious in every way, came to celebrate my son’s graduation, just perfect!!!

V. N.

Awesome atmosphere and food. Lovely staff who were accomodating and friendly.

L. Z.

Went to Huberts in January for their set menu and jazz night. They blew my expectations out of the water! Every course was delectable and left you wanting for more. Until the last course when you felt your belt might bust. The acoustics throughout the building allowed us to enjoy the music but still hear each other. Will be going back.

C. E.

Fantastic bar and restaurant. Great drinks and knowledgeable bar staff. Food menu is incredible at both the bar and restaurant perfect for a feast or a late night meal. Jazz nights are a fun way for a mid week night out. Probably one of the best restaurants in Sydney at the moment.

G. T.

Awesome place. Heard a lot about this place and usually when ppl build things up you're left disappointed as expectations are never quite met We'll I'm happy to say, not in this case. Right from even you enter this place is different and something you'd expect to find in the cooler Melbourne scene. Well luckily this is a gem of a spot in Sydney and honestly one of nicest places to dine. Food was amazing, drinks menu was diverse and the band seamlessly eases into the background without overpowering music to disturb the conversation at the table. Such a refreshing change and really takes the whole experience to a new level. Great for couples and smaller group settings. Highly recommend.

F. B.

Shared a lovely long birthday lunch with girlfriends here (plus a 4mo!) and have to say that the whole team went out of their way to make us feel welcome, didn't make having a baby awkward at all, it just helped make the day that much more special for the birthday girl / mum! (Oh and of course it goes without saying that the food was amazing, and we were very happy with the buffet recommendation, took all the decisions out of it, and gave us an amazing selection of their best!)

M. A.

beautiful place, the food was cooked perfectly for my wife and I

L. M.

Best French Restaurant Ive been to. Food drinks service amazing. The whole atmosphere was incredible. When this covid is over I'll come back

M. L.

Exemplary dishes at reasonable price. The entrees, duck parfait and escargot (snails) were appropriately sized, however the escargot was hindered by the quality of the snails themselves. The duck parfait was beautifully seasoned, exemplified by the accompanying baguette, which was soft inside and crispy, but not hard. The mains beef tartare, and Boudin Noir (blood cake, like blood sausage) which was delicately seasoned, had very smooth potato puree accoutrement. The tartare's potato chip condiment brings a delightful contrast to texture and taste, but is not for everyone. The Pommes Anna, a layered and fried potato stack, is amazing, making me consider how much effort went into its preparation. To pair with the mains, the Semillon chose a Pinot for me, which was not great (the wine or the choice, for that matter). Finally, I chose the Vacherin dessert, a meringue, lemon leaf ice cream with Yuzu jelly, for the purpose of a light, refreshing dessert, but the heavy handed application of cream is too filling as the conclusion for the bistro styled meal. The ambience of Hubert is quaint, and a welcome juxtaposition to the surrounding cityscape. The waitstaff are filled with polite energy, and are amicable enough. I will return soon, as Hubert will probably be excellent for dates.

A. L.

Great food, great service as waiters and restaurant manager providing quality service. If they miss you while waiting it's because they're busy moving which is understandable. Roe boat - amazing Duck parfait - amazing Beef taretare - amazing Gnocchi - Not to my liking but do give it a try as pallettes differ. Bavette - Cooked to the right doneness as asked. Overall a great experience and for the price you pay I find it worth the money for quality dining. Thanks for having us Restaurant Hubert.

A. P.

Beautiful French restaurant with attentive staff and delicious food. As a vegetarian I would recommend the confit mushroom, fries and salad - they were all delicious. Great romantic vibes from the jazz band and a cosy booth at the bar. Lovely and we will be back again. Thank you Chay and Ashani for the great service.

A. Q.

This restaurant is amazing. The owners and staff have a meticulous eye for detail which is clearly evident in the decor, food and service. The staff were just lovely. It was the perfect dining experience. Just loved it 🙂🙂🙂

A. S.

Definately one of my top 5 restaurants ever. Absolutely amazing food, the service is so professional and friendly. Great live music and just a wonderful atmosphere. The setting is spot on. Dark, warm,, yet Uber cool. Friggin love it.

S. D.

One of my favourite restaurants to date. Beautiful staircase down to the restaurant. On Thursday there's a live band and food is amazing!! Service is attentive and decor is stylist.

A. K.

Hubert has been named the best restaurant in Sydney of 2016 for good reason. It’s definitely worth it. My boyfriend and I sat at the side bar (this one they served the full menu at - the one to the left of reception they do not) and ordered six plates, including dessert: pickled octopus, duck parfait, the whole chicken, kimchi, steak tartare (with really good french fries) and creme caramel. We both also had a glass of red and a gin and tonic. We were stuffed. The only menu item we ordered I could’ve done without was the pickled octopus. Everything else was great. The kimchi I’d especially recommend. And for all that, and a tip, we hit about $250. Which definitely is not bad. Also a bit of a side note: when I went, the door facing Bligh street was locked (or I was trying to pull rather than push, who knows), and was lucky in that someone was coming out as I was trying to get in. Keep an eye out.

f. n.

Incredibly delicious. The most delicious steak I’ve ever had. Beautiful decoration. Lovely vibe. Professional, friendly staff. Highly recommended of you want to enjoy a french night.

N. K.

The best live intimate dinner experience you would have with your special one. lovely ambience, open till late night. A+++ service. And the best of all the Steaks were probably the best i have ever tasted. Highly Highly Highly recommended. Think no more thats a go to place for sure.

P. T.

Old world charm and a fabulous wine list, with prices starting from, around, AU$50 a bottle. Very good service.

C. M.

Such a nice place for dinner. Dim lit, live jazz, friendly staff, delicious food and amazing bar. You will not believe how beautiful it is until you see it! Thanks for a wonderful night Hubert!

G. Y.

But don't get distracted before you've studied the menu. Lee's extensive line-up will call on all your decision-making skills. One of the first things to decide is whether to go down the "modern breakfast" route or hit the soul food section. The latter contains a handful of rice bowls and, to a non-Korean bruncher's surprise, perhaps – schnitzel.

M. R.

Charming cosy dining/bar experience. Perfect for any time or day for a luxe meal or drink and a burger. Absolutely amazing food and the Martinis are perfection. Unique and amazing spot.

C. R.

Great food, great service and awesome live jazz music playing in the background 10/10

A. K.

Managed to squeeze in with the help of the manager on a very busy Monday night before the Australia Day holiday. Great ambience and the food was just simply amazing. The steak is to die for. Easily one of the best French in Sydney.

J.

Cool place, great ambience, interesting food.

H. L.

Escargot XO, snails with xo sauce, very good. Big sitting area for catching up with friends

S. K.

Perfect place to dine at for date night. The restaurant has a really nice vibe and ambiance with live jazz on at certain times. Ordered the escagot, parfait, bavette steak, tartare and roe boat. All were amazing!

D. B.

Restaurants was amazing. Loved the taste

L. L.

Deserves every star for every reason Ambience Food Wine selection Service

N.

Always a pleasure coming here. Such a great restaurant with amazing food and good vibes. Definitely go when they have live jazz music!

G. L. M.

OMG, I had no idea this place existed. The food is so delicious and interesting. The staff was great. The decoration so cool. The live band playing music was just amazing.

Y. K.

Hubert is a French Restaurant located in the Sydney CBD Area. The place looks like a theatre. When you start wandering around the restaurant you may see the stage where live music can be performed. It has such a romantic atmosphere which is best for anniversaries, special days or etc with your partner. Despite of its expensive options in the menu compared to the portion of food, it has great taste of Prime Beef Tartare and Chicken Fricassée which were my favourite. I have not had a chance to try cocktails or desserts but probably they would be one of the best in town due to the quality of Hubert. Waiter and waitresses are also friendly in the place and they have good speed for the service.

S. S.

Amazing service, amazing food and amazing atmosphere. Love this place and cannot wait to come back for more!

K. X.

Been there five times, the customer service is good! The atmosphere just right, casually nice and decent. The food is tasty but if they can update the menu a bit more frequently that will be good.

L. N.

One of THE BEST French restaurants I've ever eaten at. Bar or booth, either way the service is 100% and always top notch. One of mine and my wife's fav casual fine dining. Big groups book the private room

K. R.

This great restaurant is under ground and has a wonderful atmosphere. The menu is unique in that it does not distinguish between starters and mains. It is simply a list of dishes and you choose whatever you want. The food is delicious and the wine list extensive. Coupled with very good service a visit to Huberts is a truly memorable experience. Strongly recommended

K. C.

Favourite restaurant for date night or double date (more food variety) night! Service is impeccable and wine recommendations never disappoint. Must try their Xo escargot and duck parfait. All desserts are amazing especially classic Creme caramel and their warm LEMON MADELEINES.

W. C.

The food and ambience are excellent. But Hubert could really work on their service. I have asked for the tea menu at the start of the service. The waiter laughed it off and said he will get back to me. He came back to our table four times and not once did he give me their list of tea available.

A. M.

Dark and deep underground place full of character with live jazz band to boot. Overpriced menu like other diners have mentioned, however some dishes were tasty, such as the tuna, fries, chocolate tart, chicken and Mille-Feuille dessert. Well known Bavette steak was a let down, bit tough. Service was attentive, but it is not a good idea to shove guests' personal belongings out of the way without asking first.

P. D.

Great cosy place in centre of CBD. Live music on weekdays. Tasty small plates to share and great cocktails. Will be definately back again.

B. T.

What an experience! This venue is now on my list to visit whenever I am in Sydney. Fantastic atmosphere, great decor, awesome service, delicious food, live jazz and that bar!!! A hidden gem!

L. C.

Device. The food. The service and atmosphere is everything great about Hubert. You get what you pay for and we got three delicious courses. The steak and chicken was the standout. The wine options we left to the sommelier and was on point.

M. M.

Absolutely love this place from the atmosphere, decor to the beautiful French food

L. B.

We came tonight for our 11 year wedding anniversary, unfortunately being a Friday night there was a bit of wait. It was well worth it. All the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable, everyone made us feel very welcome. The food was delicious and rich as all French cuisine should be. Thank you for wonderful memories.

V. H.

Excellent always top quality, just be prepared to wait up to 3 hours most times for main dining area, but you have a bar menu with a slimmed down menu which is still amazing.

J. A.

Went for drinks after dinner... great spot and I'll be coming back for sure

P. M.

Great "cafe-theatre" like atmosphere with live jazz music, great for a night out. The food was all classic but very well executed and tasty, definitely recommend !

d. H.

Great moody restaurant with live Jazz. Food was Modern French, Service was great. Quite a busy place for a Tuesday night. Parking is just across the road for $20. Good little city spot.

S.

OUTSTANDING service. BEST IN SYDNEY. Spent $300 on dinner for two. We ordered the special of the day, a dish of Yabbies. Duck parfait with bread and butter, Steak tartare, escargo in xo, one of the steaks on the menu, and clams. We also ordered two drinks, creme caramel and ice cream. Everything was really delicious and I had an incredible experience. If I had to pick my highlight dishes, it would be the steak tartare, escargo and the creme caramel. Service from the wait staff at the front desk was already incredible from the get go, wishing my partner happy birthday. The attention of detail really made his night so special! To top it off, Giulio, our waiter, he was awesome! Catering to our needs, telling us all about the daily specials and answering our curious questions. He also managed to grab a candle for our dessert which was really sweet of him. Thank you restaurant Hubert! Truly one of a kind dining experience

C. B.

The best french cuisine I have ever experienced, service amazing, wine pairing suggestions by the section waiter and super friendly service. Book in advance as they are pretty booked up, but so worth the wait and a true treat. We will be back.

S. D.

Best happy hour in Sydney. I loved the cocktails and my partner said the burger was one of the best he's ever had (and he has eaten a lot of burgers).

W. O.

Loved this place more than I expected! The environment and culture was great and so surreal, the food was amazing and the staff were just as amazing! Highly recommend

J. J.

Such a beautiful on everything. The atmosphere tells their own character so well and all sensual things they prepared express ‘Hubert’. Light, music, furnitures. Loved everything. Food was delicious too, served just on time by courses and made our guests so full that made us proud for the gathering(banquet). Wine recommendations were excellent and everyone compliments a lot. One huge miss, however, the host wasn’t helpful and was careless that we almost ruined our surprise party. I walked in with the friend to be surprised and couldn’t have a drink at the bar before all guests turn up. The host said “I know it’s a surprise party but the table is ready, bar has no seat” Quite shocked with his response and shout. It could have been any better, no? Why not just say await for the bar if we want? It was planned for months for a special birthday. Please.

Absolutely perfect place to kick back after a hard day at work or for an awesome fancy dine in. I love the food, the environment, decor and service! Everytime I'm here I am greeted with a smile and friendly service. May not always get a table straight away but there is always the bar and boy do they have good cocktails. Everything about this place always makes me want to go back! My partner and I love this place. We will continuously be loyal customers.

E. G.

The best meal we have had in Sydney so far. The interior design is stunning only to be met with the perfect food, service and ambience. Would highly recommend - but also want to keep it as our little secret!!

G. B.

Excellent customer service! Whenever I needed something they were there for me. Thank you guys.

J. O.

Make sure you order the roe boat and cheese soufflé.

U. M.

Great ambience, lovely attentive staff. Went for an early dinner and sat in a booth close to the bar. It was plenty lively and plenty private for great dinner conversation. The food was good, played with a number of share starters which were sufficiently pleasing. Mains menu is not extensive but they absolutely nail the few dishes on the menu.

Z. Z.

This has been a long time favourite for date night and celebrating with friends. My favourite French restaurant in Sydney. The atmosphere is lively and the food is always superb!

S. A.

The service, food and live jazz music were incredible. It was the perfect way/place to celebrate our 10 year anniversary.

L. S.

Everyone knows drink selection at Hubert is great, and happy hour negroni and pate are divine. Topped up by Marly’s service at the bar made it a superb experience!

J. D.

Best restaurant experience I've ever had. Food was spectacular, perfectly cooked and seasoned. Atmosphere was phenomenal and wait staff were incredibly polite, knowledgeable and courteous. Well priced as well. Lovely music too.

M. H.

It was ok. I guess I'm just not as into french food as the others I went with

M. G.

Came here for some food and drinks right after we landed, great way to start the trip! Chucho and Ernesto were great hosts! Will definitely come back before I leave!

A. L.

A delightful french restaurant in the CBD. Amazing wine and cocktail list, great intimate basement atmosphere and a varied menu. Perfect for date night, birthdays or a small group.

P. S.

Walked in without a reservation and snagged a booth by the bar. We found the service to be attentive and friendly. The food was well presented and the chicken for two was a welcome change from a steak, and the champagne jelly was a tasty pudding. The bar is well stocked and there is a good wine list. Good lively atmosphere from diners who all appeared to be having a good time (except the reviewer before me).

A. C.

A long-time fave in the CBD area. i wish they kept the ice-cream-filled melons on the menu, but still great Belle Epoque vibe and service

K.

Amazing food, lovely atmosphere, especially on jazz nights, and great setting and decor. Food is so tasty - the chicken and the crepe caramel was stand out for me!! Will definitely come back again... and again and again. Oh and staff are friendly, attentive and very charming. Love that French accent.

S. G.

Every dish was amazing and live music too! This is like a fine dining experience except with great vibes.

S. K.

It's no doubt this place rewarded a five stars review. Great atmosphere, reasonable price for the food quality, attentive service and a wide range of wine selection. My personal favourite is the whole chicken, it's hard to find such tenerness and complexity of favour elsewhere. $60-$70 per head. Without wine $40-$50+

M. S.

Really unique, cozy, underground restaurant. Delicious food and drinks and excellent service. Couldn't get a table straight away but we were seated in the bar for some drinks first. Everything we ate was tasty, beautifully presented and had it's own unique "Hubert" twist. Highly recommended

M. C.

Food was delicious. I often go there for happy hour. Best negroni there.

T. W.

Been here several times and never disappoints. I had a few dishes but the Chicken Fricassee was the standout, super tender and full of flavour. They have an extensive selection of drinks and a decent range of Cognac and Armagnac for Brandy lovers.

Y. S.

Food came out relatively quickly (we weren't hungry for long!) and it was super tasty. I think the standout for me was the beef tartare -- I'm not usually a fan of raw beef, but this was really yummy. The fries were pretty good, too. In keeping with the French theme, the place was also a leeeetle bit cramped haha so got bumped a few times but all good.

S. M. G.

Probably my favourite restaurant in the city. No bookings, so you'll have to wait but it's worth it. Grab a drink, or three, at the bar after you put your name down and you won't be disappointed. The food ranges from medium price to expensive but they really know what they're doing. The back bar is also very impressive and the staff know how to make use of it.

A. P.

Hubert is one of the best restaurants in Sydney without doubt. A classic French menu with a great wine list.

C. B.

Best French food in Australia , fantastic ambiance, a Sydney must visit.

E. H. W.

Hubert was our first dining experience in Sydney, and it did not disappoint. We started in the bar (because I don't think they take reservations, but it's worth the wait. And I'm not that patient) with cocktails, local oysters (yum) and paté, then moved to the main restaurant so we could experience the full menu and wine list. We ordered a ribeye - it came out and was about the size of my thigh and cooked to perfection, and let me tell you, I was not mad about it. Cocktails and wine list were superb. And the atmosphere... The whole thing felt like a speakeasy. It's underground. Literally, in a basement. There is a stage with a red velvet curtain. There are candlesticks in bottles. The entire experience was phenomenal and I want to go back immediately. If not sooner. A+, Hubert

M. B.

Had dinner here for a 40th Birthday. Food was Amazing! Service was excellent. So attentive! Staffs Knowledge of the menu and wine selection was also very very good. We had a sweet menu due to the amount of people in our party but we'll be back soon to have A la carte.

C. D.

Great for a group, food and service was excellent

A. K. (.

Beautiful old world French restaurant that transports you back into the 70s. We sat at their cozy bar and had their duck liver parfait, smoked salmon and escargot for entrees. A burger and frites for main. Lovely atmosphere and staff. Cam be pricey with entrees at around $25 and mains at $40plus. Special occasion restaurant

D. G. (.

Really wanted to love this place, but couldn't... whilst service was good, it felt extremely rushed. Food was good though, most dishes were tasty but shouldn't have bothered with the tasting menu as felt like too much food and probably not good value. Choose your own dishes to share, will work out cheaper. Wine list was extensive and good but a little overpriced... overall an ok experience but won't rush back!

H. L. B.

Fantastic place! Hubert is definitely one of my favorites places in Sydney. I love the atmosphere and live jazz. I like to go for a few happy hour drinks and then move to the restaurant area. I think is important to point out that the food is very modern french style (don’t expect the traditional french food) and it’s amazing! The wine list is also incredible and goes from 50$ to 5000$ so it’s suitable for different tastes and pockets. The service is always good (from the host, to the bar and to the floor staff).

K. M.

Amazing atmosphere when there's a live band, sometimes hard to get staffs attention. Food is very good, definitely get a special!

H. A.

I would recommend getting a couple of smaller dishes to sample as much as you can on your first visit. The atmosphere is great but note that there is low lighting. The wine list is extensive and the staff are very knowledgeable and make great recommendations.the place is awesome.

S. B.

Great service, lovely food, fantastic ambience, expect to pay for it though. Live music apparently commences at 9pm, we had the 6pm-8pm time slot for midweek dinner

M. W.

An incredible experience. The atmosphere is fantastic, feels very different from anything else in Sydney. The food was just spectacular, every dish was jaw-droppingly good. Service was excellent. One of my favourite nights out.

T. Z.

Cool decor and waiters. Food and drink is good but very expensive for what it is.

S. O.

10/10 on food, presentation, atmosphere. Really great vibe and I would highly recommend this restaurant.

I. F.

Unique fun French jazz restaurant. Great atmosphere, friendly, well trained staff, very good cooking. Very lovely surprise to walk down the spiral staircase and arrive at such a great location. Our family party went early and we all had the set menu which was excellent. If I'm going to be picky the band were too loud so conversation at our table stopped but it's still a great place for pre theatre dinner & drinks. Very smart place for a date. Recommended.

B. C.

There's a reason this place is on every must do list for Sydney. The set menu is delicious. The sommelier was knowledgeable and helped us select two lovely wines. The ambiance in the restaurant is just perfect, great lighting and music.

A. P.

Amazing atmosphere, great wait staff, brilliant experience. Had the chateaubriand with butter lettuce and mushroom on the side. Excellent food cannot wait to come back

A. T.

We loved it. A nice dining experience to take your significant other to. Having said that they also cater for groups. Exceptional food and a very wide selection of drinks beers wines and spirits. Staff were very helpful and accommodating. The live background music was a nice touch to the already great atmosphere.

G. G.

Food was amazing, ambience was great! Super old school, wonderful vibe and music. If I had to list a complaint, the petit banquet was way too much food! Every bite was delicious but we definitely couldn't finish all of it. Highly recommend!

D. R.

Awesome jazz band on Wednesdays & Thursdays. Delicious creme caramel

R. C.

Best steak in Sydney! Feels very french and cosy! Great in winter!

I. B.

Amazing experience!! Live band on Thursday night!!

B. C.

Hands down the best restaurant & experience in Sydney. Do yourself a favour, come a bit before your reservation & have a few drinks. The bar staff will blow you away with their knowledge & recommendations. Obviously the food & wine is perfect, but the staff make the experience next level.

D. F.

Best french style restaurant I have been to in Sydney...and it reflects in the bill. Great bistro like atmosphere but yet intimate.. You feel thrown back in time in early 1900's Paris. Some of their dishes are amazing.. The Chicken fricassée is one of the best (if not the best) chicken I have ever had. Great wine selection and great food.. Well worth the money.

B.

Fantastic food and great service. Very convenient location in a central city location. Easy access from public transport. The food isn't all authentically French but is still very tasty. Price is good for what it is - a fine dining establishment. Great wine selection and expert opinions provided on wine pairing.

B.

Lovely atmosphere and great food. Fish is amazing..great place for friends and loved ones.

D. Y.

One of my favourite restaurants in Sydney. Went back recently post-COVID and found the dish sizes smaller however still delicious. Great environment and nice for a date or catch up with friends.

T. C.

I had an early birthday dinner at Hubert. We only had 12 people but they offer us the theatre royal room which is a large private dining space. The night was amazing. The space was stunning, the service was impeccable, the food was great. I couldn’t ask for a better night! It is my favourite restaurant in Sydney.

K. F.

This place was amazing! Great food, good drinks, and wonderful staff! We had cocktails in the bar while we waited; not too crazy of a wait time when we showed ip at peak dinner hours. Seated at the bar in the dining room, which was great as a couple - probably easier to talk to each other over the live music. Our server/bartender was wonderful at helping us determine what dishes to order - highly recommend sharing multiple dishes. The sommelier was wonderful in helping us sect a bottle of wine to share. Gave us a couple options with good descriptions so we could pick what was best for us/our price point without being overwhelmed with options. Definitely recommend this place, bonus if you can be there for the live music - really adds to the cool vibe!

L.

High quality food and drinks in an intimate setting that resembles old school Paris. Jazz / live music playing in background creates a nice ambience. Hidden gem in Syd where many venues look and feel the same.

N. C.

good service and thoroughly enjoyed our $12 happy hour burgers ($16 with chips) and $6 house wines. have to get there fairly early to secure a table. would have enjoyed burgers with some salad/veg inside. we will definitely be back

F. G.

Excellent food and service. Excellent music. A bit pricey but well worth it

N. l.

Just loving the atmosphere with live music and food got served like oysters, duck parfait and Escargot XO sauce. All of them are perfectly cooked. Nice dining place to celebrate my birthday with my boyfriend.

D. G.

The restaurant had a very warm ambiance to it. Real candles on the candelabras really set the mood in this quirky setting. The menu option that we ordered was really flavorsome and leaving us wanting more! Up market price point. Perfect place to have a romantic dinner even on a Monday night!

t. f.

Talk about a traditional meal. Hubert's is an old style meats and fish place. It's a very popular "high status" resturante that you really need to make a reservation. I went with a big group which is perfect because it's definitely a sharing "tapas esk" style restaurant. They had a great band playing and the place was pretty much packed. Full drink menu and wines

W. T.

Best French food in Sydney! Rich, tasty, buttery, etc. Must try!

J. E.

Fantastic. I'm not in the whole city lunch thing, but this place is sensational. The 1kg Ranger steak is magnificent (thankfully I overruled my host and went medium rare!) Love the decor, service was fabulous. Fantastic for winter as there are no windows, and I can imagine that for a long lunch it would be truly stupendous!

D. L.

Absolutely loved this place. The setting is fun, vibrant and classy. Customer service is very friendly and attentive. They have a massive selection of wines and beers, imported from all across the world. A must-try dish would have to be the pork blood. We loved every part of this restaurant. Will be coming back again soon!

J. T.

Can never go wrong with this place. Kitchen is opened til late. Food standard is always the same showing great consistency. The ambiance and decor gives it such a solid rustic feel.

M. A.

I went for dinner with my boyfriend on Saturday night and despite the place being very busy and not having a reservation, we were welcomed by a lovely receptionist who tried her best to accommodate us. We had a couple of drinks at the bar upstairs while waiting for a table to become available. The drinks were delicious and the service by Andy amazing! When a table became available, we moved downstairs, where we enjoyed a lovely dinner and atmosphere! The waiters were very nice and attentive and always had a smile on their faces - one of the best services we received in Sydney so far! Well done guys.

J. E. G.

Find the door and head down the stairs to a beautiful, atmospheric space of wood, candles and warm lighting . Have always sat in the bar space for a late night drink and feed and it’s been excellent. Extensive range of wines, as you would expect, to match with your pates or steak tartare or escargot. Great for a small group or a date.

C. P.

Very good French food in a speakeasy setup, went for a corporate function in some sort of auditorium back room where we had a little jazz band playing. Definitely did the trick for a great intimate experience. Dishes were traditional French, not the most refined cuisine but well executed and with good products. The bar itself is quite nice, with lots of wood and a real speakeasy feel to it.

S. F.

Super friendly staff. Fine dining kind of place with live music. Definitely a must visit.

T. O.

My partner and I went here for dinner a couple of weeks ago, as we heard it was a must-do on the Sydney dining scene. We were blown away at the service of Tristan (I hope I spelt that correctly!) in particular. He provided incredible guidance when it came to the food and the wine pairing. This was hands down the best dining experience we’ve had. Loved it!

S. T. D.

Lovely restaurant. Great tasting cuisines.

L. R.

Good ambiance and the service was very personal and delightful. Walked in on a Monday night no issues. Food serving was fast. I recommend the duck pate, beef tartare, potato, gnocchi, escargot and the steak. Toilets have Aesop hand wash.

A. H.

Went in last night on the basis of other reviews and enjoyed Hubert very much. They only accept bookings for 6 or more so expect a wait if it is a busy night. We got in before the rush but still faced a 30 minute wait so opted for the bar seating (and menu). I had the steak frites and throughly recommend. Excellent piece of meat and cooked perfectly rare.

L. N.

Loved the ambiance, the food, the attentive service. Reminded me of restaurants I visited in Paris. Recommend!

G. G.

We were given a Christmas gift voucher to Restaurant Hubert by our son who read that during January there was jazz every night with dinner. As you enter you will see the restaurant is down stairs, the immediate effect upon entering is that of a Paris cafe complete with booths guarded by red curtains and candle light tables. The food is wonderful and a very good wine selection, I used the services of the sommelier who advise the perfect wine to complement the food we were having. A note the wine prices range from about $80 to $400 a bottle he did not point me to the top end of the list but chose a good bottle of wine for the meal which I appreciated. I highly recommend the restaurant as the overall experience is one of sophistication with a relaxed style. Loved it.

R. A.

This is actually 4.5 stars not 5. Food was amazing, Great service, lovely Ambience. “The only issue was the music, the jazz music was disturbingly loud”

Q. N.

Easily one of Sydney's best restaurants (if not the best). If you haven't eaten here before do yourself a favour and grab a table! I particularly like the duck parfait. There's also a great selection of drinks, and service is awesome. Highly recommend.

M. A. C.

Great music!! Dj and mc getting the restaurant involved in games and dancing. Really fun! The food was very good as well. Two blocks from the beach. Loved it!

P. S.

Great venue and fantastic large party room (like an old cinema). Outstanding menu and super service. Prices very reasonable.

H. H.

A delightful experience! Gnocchi is amazing!

P. N.

Hubert's reputation is really well-earned. As you walk down the steps to the restaurant, presumably you pass through some sort of advanced time--dilation field that transports you to a classy bar in France during the war. The music, atmosphere, bar and lighting is just top notch, and the staff are lovely. And the food, good heavens the food. We had a banquet and literally everything was delicious: Duck Parfait and Chicken Fricassee were absolutely off the charts yummy. Be prepared to spend a bit, not because Hubert is necessarily expensive, but because you will want to spend it.

A. K.

Very pleasant dining experience. Staff are very helpful and pleasant. Know the wine list very well and present without upselling. The menu is truly a tribute to a French palate with modern influence. Beautifully presented and flavors are amazing.the bar is always stocked with a fine selection of spirits. Bar Manager just needs to keep the items on the menu stocked. Entertainment is always pleasant although my cup of tea. Definatley a great place to entertain being a crowd between 30-45 years old or impress a significant other.

B. B.

What a great restaurant, the atmosphere is worth the price of admission, the food is the cherry on top. We will be back.

A. A.

One of my favourite restaurants. Never disappoints! Food, atmosphere, service.. Everything is on point! I'd give 6 stars if I could.

K. M.

Popped down to Hubert's last night to see The Rookies, a jazz band from Melbourne, perform. I didn't eat anything so can't comment on the food but the place itself is special enough to warrant 5 stars. The wine was felicitous too. Definitely something for a special occasion. Super cosy rooms at the end of a winding staircase in the middle of the city. Felt a little like being in another time and place.

A. L.

Sydney is not known for it's food scene as much as other cities e.g. New York, Melbourne etc so a restaurant that serves tasty quality food here is in very high demand. we got to Huberts at 6pm prior to going to the opera and every table was taken, including the bar for waiting for tables and there were groups standing in the foyer waiting for table as well. there's very few tables that can be booked and luckily we had our concierge at our hotel arrange a table otherwise we would have a 1-1.5hr wait which I'm sorry is just ridiculous to wait for a table no matter how good the food is. the dishes were savoury and i would say the equal to a family run bistro in France, both tasty and savoury.

M. R.

The food here is amazing. There is a wonderful range of French cuisine and an extensive drinks menu. The atmosphere is fun and friendly. The menu is quite expensive, but the quality of the food is very high.

J. M.

Wow one of Sydney's hidden gems. Service was outstanding the small theatre is charming and quaint. The restaurant is classically styled with a feeling of grandeur but welcoming throw in some live music and the atmosphere is truly beautiful, an absolute must go!

Z. Y.

Great food and ambience but a tad over priced for what it is

M. T.

Talk about a traditional meal. Hubert's is an old style meats and fish place. It's a very popular "high status" resturante that you really need to make a reservation. I went with a big group which is perfect because it's definitely a sharing "tapas esk" style restaurant. They had a great band playing and the place was pretty much packed. Full drink menu and wines.

H. B.

Excellent ambiance and support using a live Jazz Trio and a superb singer. The service is friendly and very accommodating. The place itself has a retro design giving you a vibe of few Chicago speakeasy outlets. This is an enjoyable spot to visit when You're in Sydney

R. C.

What an experience! Great food and atmosphere with the best music list I’ve heard in a long time. All staff knew the menu - food and wine. Good to get there early to get a table or expect a long wait.I wouldn't get the gin martini again but that is completely up to personal preference.

J. N.

So I dined at Restaurant Hubert 12 months ago and it made me fall in love with French cuisine. I tried a few other French restaurants in the city and can say, without a doubt, that Hubert is my favourite and I would definitely not eat French in any of the other restaurants in Sydney again. I had to try a few other places first to make sure R Hubert is the best and now I can confirm lol

M. S.

Whilst a difficult restaurant to be able to get in. Once you start to enjoy the dishes and share plates it is easy to understand why. The wait staff were attentive, the food was rich in flavours. The person I was dining with had never tried snails and the presentation was perfect to satisfy someone on a first time unforgettable experience. Definitely a restaurant to experience in Sydney and I will dine again.

H. C.

Great atmosphere. Food is very good ant taste “French”. Wine is quite highly priced.

J. P.

The most incredible dining experience you are likely to find anywhere in Sydney. Great food, great staff, an incredible setting - get down there on Wednesday or Thursday nights for the band. Also the kitchen and bar stays open late. This place does it all :)

K. D. L.

This French restaurant was absolutely delicious! Upon entry you are greeted by a dark light filled downward spiral staircase transporting you to a "secret" location. Upon entry to the restaurant you see a sea of candle lit tables across the room. The food was delicious. We went with the $149pp set menu. The Escargot and the 1kg Wagyu Tbone steak (sliced on the bone to be shared) were my favourites. The steak was cooked to perfection and the seasoning was subtle but present enhancing the flavour of steak. The wait staff were friendly and always there to help with food, drinks, and other requests.

S. C.

Twice I've drank and dined at Hubert and twice I've been totally impressed. Great cocktails, awesome service, 20's french jazz vibe all topped off with fantastic food and incredible wine list! Love it.

I. T.

Food is excellent. If you enjoy jazz the music is excellent also. Nice ambiance. May be a little hard to find as the restaurant is below ground. They don’t always take reservations so check online. If there are no tables available you can wait at the bar which is also very nice.

V. S.

Great service and food was amazing! The chicken is a must try!
