Bistrot d'Orsay

Best Known For

Char-grilled lamb rump, baked cannellini beans, Savoy cabbage, roasted capsicum, saltbush and rich lamb jus.

Few can match Bistrot d'Orsay on Collins Street for an intimate, quintessentially French dining experience in Melbourne city. Trompe l'oeil ceilings, antique French posters, dark wooden panelling and soft lighting, exude a romantic Parisian style that also permeates the restaurant's menu. Bistrot d'Orsay takes pride in serving expertly prepared French cuisine along with attentive service and an award-winning wine list; say merci to entrées of steak tartare, Parmesan custard, quail egg and croutons, or pan-seared scallops, leek and green pea purée, micro herbs, fried capers and truffle oil. For a memorable main, delve into coq au vin – braised chicken, button mushrooms, lardons, baby potatoes and a rich white wine reduction – finish indulgently with a dessert of vanilla crème brûlée.
