The best restaurants Australia

You can also enjoy a delicious hamburger or opt for a gluten-free dish. For a sweet touch, let yourself be tempted by the delicious homemade potato cake. Finally, the owners, who took over the business in 2021, are charming and provide friendly service. You can also take your meal away and enjoy it on the beach if you prefer to enjoy the fresh air!

Fancy taking time out to enjoy breakfast? For a delicious breakfast with excellent coffee, head for Birchwood! Scrambled eggs are a must, and Avo on toast proves that you can keep things simple and tasty! Try home-made creations such as roasted mushrooms with miso or falafel with beet. The dishes are healthy, light and the portions rather generous. The staff are particularly welcoming, and will provide games and coloring pages for your children if you're traveling with the family.

Under the direction of Joshua, a hybrid of quality Australian snack and cool American restaurant. The place is quite small, but we love its decoration with Superman's mannequin, thousands of bric-a-brac objects, pictures of customers, little succulents on the tables, and the chosen music... The burgers are excellent, as well as the pizzas and the numerous appetizing desserts. Many customers also come for take-away food. We recommend it for the food, the place, and the nicely offbeat atmosphere.

Fisho's Torquay welcomes you in a traditional villa with a pretty courtyard overlooking the beach... Ideal when the weather is good! At lunchtime, one of the best and nicest restaurants in Torquay.

Right in the center of town, this is a great place to try during your visit to Alice Springs. The menu is Mexican and Spanish inspired, with good tapas. Perfect for a nice quiet brunch.

In the beautiful village of Mintaro, this vineyard boasts a bucolic, country-style restaurant that invites you to stop in. On the menu, starters include seafood and rabbit, followed by a selection of seasonal main courses, all of which are highly appetizing. Let yourself be tempted by a cheese platter before moving on to dessert, with its mouth-watering choices. The menu changes according to the produce available. And seasonal menus are matched to local wines.

Don't let the outside fool you, as you're walking into a Caltex gas station, but the room is nice and clean, the staff friendly and it's an excellent seafood restaurant. Live fish and oysters from Kangaroo Island. Everything is good and appetizing! We treat ourselves to fish & chips, perhaps one of the best on the island! In the evening, it's best to get there early, as it can easily get very crowded.

Great concept of wine bar where wine is associated with cheese. Choose several cheeses among the 180 offered! Come and discover the local cheeses, classic cheeses and others, much more original. It is very good, and the place and the atmosphere make us want to stay. With the cheese, we take the opportunity to taste a good glass of wine, cider, beer... The staff, attentive and knowledgeable, is of very good advice. The plus: the cheeses and trays with accessories to buy, ideal as a souvenir gift! Online store.

Enjoy fine Australian cuisine in a casual setting with impeccable service. For a complete culinary experience, come in the evening and opt for the Chef's selection menu, which changes seasonally. Start with a starter of raw tuna with ginger vinegar, then try the Murray cod with fennel confit and turnips. Or why not the lamb loin or the vegetarian dish with shiitake mushrooms and celeriac. Cheese and dessert round off the meal. In addition, the sommelier's selection for each dish.

A cosy little restaurant where you can enjoy, in the dining room or on the large terrace overlooking the sea (with its beautiful view!), excellent oysters au naturel or in different ways (Kilpatrick with bacon or Spicy with chili...) and fish dishes (tuna, whiting, kingfish) and seafood (crab, octopus, shrimp...). There are also seafood platters to share, accompanied by a glass of wine. Special mention for the attentive, friendly staff. Very popular in high season.

As a starter, let yourself be tempted by the garlic and cheese bread, a delight! It is a must in the city, and in addition, the staff is friendly and attentive. Excellent background music.

Welcome aboard! Take a trip back to the world of pirates when you step through the doors of this iconic island café.

Opt for a champion breakfast, great burgers, fish & chips or a vegetarian lunch. The coffees are prepared with care and are equally delicious. The atmosphere is relaxed and family-friendly, and we love to linger on the terrace tables where the tropical vegetation encroaches on our place settings!

Laneway is often cited as one of the best cafés in Darwin. On the menu, classic Australian coffees, perfect for a brunch. Modern "trendy" decor. The service and food are excellent. The toilets at the back leave something to be desired. Located in the heart of Parap, the place is nice during the week (especially the Outstation art gallery), but really comes alive on Saturdays when the market takes place on the square. Parap Market is often crowded, and is a great place to try street food from all over the world, for art, clothes.

Nice restaurant facing the beach with grilled local fish. Relaxed atmosphere, simple and quality cuisine. On the menu, we let ourselves be tempted by a healthy breakfast with a fresh fruit salad and Greek yogurt or scrambled eggs or Benedict, according to our preferences. For lunch, you can enjoy fish dishes, a sandwich or a burger, or a good plate of oysters with a glass of white wine.

Behind its mysterious yet elegant façade, Pomegranate offers high-quality, refined cuisine. You'll be seduced by successful combinations of flavors and generously portioned plates.

Try the gnocchi and the tiramisu, which are particularly good. If you don't stay for dinner, at least have a drink and enjoy a sunny break. What will keep you coming back: the kindness of the staff.

As its name suggests, the view is beautiful! But beyond the relaxed setting and unique location, this restaurant offers a particularly pleasant Italian-inspired menu. In the morning, have breakfast or enjoy lunch on the terrace facing Sydney Harbour with a magnificent view of the ocean. Try the seafood pasta, a delight! The best thing to do is to go there for brunch and try the homemade fruit juices: go by bike and, after your gourmet break, finish the ride by North Head.

We come to Lumière to mingle with the locals on the terrace and have a delicious breakfast or lunch. Bowls of granola, fruit or porridge for the sweet, avocado toast with cherry tomatoes and feta cheese or poached eggs for the savory. For the French touch, there are also French brioche, ham and cheese croissants and many other delicacies. For oriental flavors, we let ourselves be seduced by the Shakshuka or by the lunch salads: tzatziki, lamb, falafels, grilled halloumi... Fresh, healthy and divine!

A non-touristy address where locals and regulars meet for brunch on the terrace. The coffee is excellent and there's a selection of tasty, innovative dishes with different influences.

To get there, stroll under the tall trees in this flowery Notting Hill-style neighborhood.

As the name suggests, welcome to a contemporary Japanese cuisine restaurant. But unlike most Japanese restaurants, here at Saké you'll find fantastic desserts and a wide selection of whiskies. Try the miso crème brûlée or, for those with a sweet tooth, the dessert platter with raspberry and mandarin marshmallow! Let yourself be seduced by the talent of the chefs and savor every bite of these delicious dishes.

This great restaurant offers authentic Thai cuisine. We will also note its pleasant service with a view on the water. On the menu, you will find chicken with peanuts, spring rolls with shrimps and fish, peking pork, tofu with shiitake and oyster sauce... Or many meat or fish dishes. On the dessert side, some ice creams, a crème brûlée with Thai tea... Nice wine list. The most : its large choice of original cocktails with notably a clever mix of caramel and lychees.

The ideal address if you plan to have a feast. This Mexican restaurant with a cosmopolitan atmosphere offers a wide choice of specialties: guacamole, tacos, machos, quesadillas, grilled meats... You'll have a lot of fun... and a lot of fun: in the evening, the bar turns into a tequila bar, the cocktails flow and the atmosphere warms up: the festive spirits will have the right to some surprises, keep an eye on the library, we won't say more! Great atmosphere if you want to extend the evening.

The place to stop for a meal while exploring Bruny. Set amidst the vineyards, this winery/restaurant offers great cheese platters, fish of the day and a tasting of Tasmanian wines and ciders to match your plates. Try for example the ginger cider or the cherry Pinot, taste the salmon burger or the lamb chops: the products are fresh and local. Many of the staff members are also French.

Formerly The Gulch, this famous fish & chips in Bichenot has moved and changed its name during 2022.

At the end of the Cunningham Pier, with a beautiful view of Geelong and the bay, Wah Bah offers a choice of cocktails at the bar and a modernized and "Mediterranean" Australian cuisine in a maritime atmosphere, on 3 decks. We come here to share aperitifs, spring rolls or dumplings at the end of the day or to enjoy a delicious bao or a Thai green curry for lunch or dinner. It is a nice and friendly address where the atmosphere and the welcome are always pleasant. Finally, don't forget to taste a cocktail to toast!

In the heart of the botanical garden, on a hill populated by tall Norfolk pines, this restaurant is set in a green setting. You can enjoy the beautiful indoor dining room or, better yet, the beautiful terrace. The simple and well-cooked Australian dishes will be unanimously appreciated. We also come here to have breakfast with fresh, healthy and vitaminized products. At lunchtime, we let ourselves be tempted by excellent burgers, a soup, or a very good lemon meringue pie with a coffee.

For foodies and gourmets, this is undoubtedly the best restaurant in Dayslesford. The Lake House offers elegant cuisine and the finest Australian wines in an enchanting setting.

The Lake House is also a hotel and a spa, which offers a wide range of body and facial treatments as well as various massages.

Burgers yes, but healthy ones! Here, we select the products, so that they are of quality, and we avoid artificial colorings or other preservatives. A pleasant setting, a friendly staff, burgers and salads in a spirit of quality research. On the menu, the burgers are declined with beef, chicken, lamb even and several choices of vegetarian burgers. All very good! Kids and parents will love it.

A pleasant setting with a variety of quality Australian cuisine awaits you in this establishment. The house has its own signature dishes such as duck breast salad, barramundi fillet with seafood or lamb shoulder Italian style. Otherwise, why not share the breaded shrimp as an appetizer, which is best enjoyed with a small glass of local wine. Relaxed and friendly atmosphere that we warmly recommend! Attention, the reservation by text or call is obligatory because this good table is very popular.

Our favorite at Rainbow Beach! This charming café owes its name to its owners, who, lost on a Greek island, found themselves in a small square where the locals were enjoying small dishes and laughing out loud. The name of this square? Micri Voulee (Little Parliament) became the inspiration for this friendly place where conversations flow. The Little Parliament café works with local farms, offers seasonal menus and prepares tasty coffee accompanied by excellent breakfasts. In short, the charm is on!

In a small alley, overlooking Pall Mall, this friendly restaurant concocts a good varied, original and affordable cuisine. On the menu, there are various starters to share such as oysters, edamame, burrata, beef carpaccio... For the main course, why not a Peking duck with its Cantonese rice, or simply a steak with its chimichurri sauce. As a side dish, choose the vegetables, or the fries... For dessert, classic choices based on fruit or chocolate. And to accompany all this, an excellent choice of wines.

The Shamrock Hotel Echuca is first and foremost an old-fashioned pub with a reputation for serving hearty, inexpensive food. On the menu, garlic or herb bread to share, calamari or tapas as starters, why not nachos even, or a fine piece of beef as a main course. There are also salads and fish dishes, as well as desserts such as churrons, chocolate cake and pudding. You can also stay at the Shamrock (double room or dormitory). If you're looking for peace and quiet, you'll want to avoid staying there during weekend concerts.

The Ilkari restaurant, whose name means sky in the Pitjantjara language of the Anangu of Uluru, offers all-you-can-eat buffets for breakfast and dinner. Very international buffet, there is really something for everyone. For dinner, a selection of seafood, which is quite special in this part of the world (!). Australian and Asian cuisine, with notably some dishes using aboriginal ingredients. The chocolate fondue is also impressive and will not disappoint you! The restaurant is located in the Sails in the Desert hotel.

Typical Australian rural pub, with TVs for sports. Frequented by the inhabitants of Katherine, they serve huge portions at a reasonable price. The menu includes all the classics, pizzas, pastas, schnitzel, steaks and the classic barramundi with fries. You can dine inside or outside on the lawn under the stars. It is also the clubhouse for Katherine's golf and lawn bowls, if you want to spend a pleasant afternoon before going to the pub. There is often live music and events, check out Facebook.

Arguably the best table in Devonport, set in a beautiful waterfront setting. There is something for all tastes and diets with gluten-free and vegetarian options... Starters include oysters, or beef carpaccio. Continue with the salmon filet or the shoulder of lamb before melting on the inimitable cheesecake, the cheese board or an ice cream. A nice wine list to accompany the whole.

Geraldton's finest dining experience. Seasonal salads, fish and fresh pasta. But it's the homemade cakes that will make your taste buds quiver. The lemon tart is a delight. Prefer the main room to the unattractive courtyard. The dinner menu is rather expensive, but one of the best meals you'll have on the West Coast (outside Perth!)

Note the small concentration of restaurants around the waterfront and surrounding streets. Café Fleur, further along Marine Terrace, is a good address for a quick and delicious meal.

Matso's is a real Broome institution. It is now known all over the country for its original beers, especially its mango beer, so typical of the tropics, and so pleasant to drink. The other best-seller: the ginger beer. The curious will try the spicy beer, not to everyone's taste! The grilled fish is excellent if you have lunch or dinner there. Concerts at the weekend in the late afternoon, in a very good atmosphere. Guided tour of the brewery possible to discover the secrets of production.

If you're in the mood for a good seafood platter and the mere idea of an oyster makes your mouth water then think no more and head to the Blue Eye! This restaurant, located at the end of the Salamanca square, will allow you to fill up on iodine: grilled octopus, scallops, squid, oysters, tuna, shrimp... Take to the sea and taste fresh and local products! Prices are reasonable and everything is absolutely delicious. You can choose to sit inside or on the terrace to enjoy the view.

Surely the best table in Alice Springs that combines Malaysian, Thai and Indian flavors. Using local products as much as possible, Hanuman is the work of Jimmy Shu, a chef from Sri Lanka who arrived in Australia at the age of 21 with $50 in his pocket. He was the star of the Taste of the Territory series, where he showcased the culinary diversity of the NT. Those who liked it can also dine at Hanuman in Darwin, which is actually the first restaurant Jimmy Shu launched in 1992. The "Thai crispy whole fish" is delicious!

For those who miss French cuisine, or who want to introduce Australian friends to the art of the French table, Chez Pierre is a superb address. In 2007, Pierre, the son of restaurateurs, continued the family tradition by opening his own restaurant. It's the place to go in town for impeccable service and traditional French cuisine. You can eat real baguette, foie gras and even snails! Located on the west side of King's Park, quick bus access from the City.

This establishment offers delicious freshly prepared breakfasts and lunches. The menu is gourmet: pancakes, toasts, omelets, burgers, bagels... the hardest part is choosing. The coffee and iced tea are also homemade and are a big hit with regulars. Very good address with the best quality/price ratio to start the day and enjoy an excellent breakfast of champion. The waiters are smiling and the service is fast. However, avoid Sundays, the place is often full to bursting!

Music and Rock'n'roll....that's how you can describe the Gray Gum Cafe when you stop by on weekends. The place is at the same time a bar, a restaurant and a musical meeting place for a whole population of bikers and motorcycle enthusiasts. Of course, the place is open to everyone and the good-natured spirit of the place allows to integrate quickly. We like the open-air bar, the tables laid out here and there in the property and the burgers served, generously accompanied by fries, or the meats on barbecue. Beer at discretion.

This small restaurant established on one of the most beautiful viewpoints of Hobart's suburbs, Mount Nelson, is in fact the former home of the chief signalman of the nearby Mount Nelson Signal Station. It dates back to 1897. The beautifully prepared dishes are served in the dining room or on the terrace, with a 180-degree view of the bay. When visiting the site outside of lunchtime, it's a good place to stop for coffee, ice cream or pastries.

When visiting Oberon's rolling countryside, this is the place to stop for a drink, a meal or even a country break. Founded in 1881, this pub has been restored to create warm, relaxed spaces with open fireplaces. This allows it to offer intimate spaces as well as a place for families and friends to gather. It has a children's play area and an outdoor café for the warmer months. Its excellent bistro serves pub fare based on local produce.
