Why locals recommend it
This multi-award-winning French restaurant run by the talented French drag queen and TV chef Claire de Lune—who also started Sydney’s renowned El’Circo show—is a favourite amongst musical theatre stars, drag luminaries, politicians, and celebrities. It’s chic and sophisticated and the gorgeous staff are almost as delicious as the incredible food. The mezzanine level sometimes holds private performances and special cabaret nights. Claire also runs cooking classes in drag, and a fundraiser in partnership with the charity Twenty10—which supports GLBTI youth rejected by their families. Kids come in to learn how to cook, serve patrons, and socialise.
Tips from locals
French dining in Darlinghurst, très chic! This two-floor restaurant offers French dining staples like escargot and chateaubriand at reasonable prices. There's a private dining room upstairs (or, as they call it, the salon) and a more traditional restaurant setup on the ground floor.
