For something proper and a glass of wine, France-Soir serves every day until midnight. It never fails to cheer me up. For something really tasty, quick and cheerful, it would be Nana Thai in the city.

I love a late dinner reservation at France-Soir. The atmosphere on any given night is perfect, great for a date or a large group. Classic French food done well with service that is charismatic and sincere.

France-Soir. It’s kind of a given. There’s something magical and theatrical there that feels worthy of a celebration.

Creme Brulee at France-Soir – so so good.
Chef Ben Russell from Rothwell’s · on Qantas Travel Insider
Years later, France-Soir was a key reference for me and Dan Clark when we were talking about what our restaurant, Rothwell’s, could be. If we’ve captured even a little of the magic, we’ve done something right. Long may it reign.

The food at France-Soir is as textbook bistro as the charismatic, suited-up waiters plonking it unceremoniously onto your table.
