I felt like I was back in France 🇫🇷 but with much better service, our waiter was so helpful and knowledgeable. The food was incredible. We loved every bit of it and will be back Merci!

It was our first time visiting this lovely French restaurant last night. The four of us enjoyed every moment there. Ludo and his staff were so lovely and friendly, and they gave us 5-star service. The cozy atmosphere, the delicious dishes, the beautiful cocktails, and even the lemon sorbet shot were all amazing. We can’t thank you enough, Ludo. We will definitely be back now that we’ve found our favourite French restaurant in Sydney.

‘Early’ birthday lunch for my wife at this wonderful French Bistro. Fabulous food, including vegetarian options, expansive French wine list and attentive and caring staff. We couldn’t fit in dessert so will definitely be back. We often travel by train and the bonus is that Bistro Papillon is only a very short walk from Wynyard Station. Highly recommend to anyone who enjoys genuine French cuisine. 🍷🍷😊😊

If it’s no nonsense French cuisine you’re after then look no further than this spot. Full three course menu & a wide selection at that. Service was superb. I dropped my fork and within seconds, a replacement appeared on the table with no fuss. It is a two-hour dining session so be prepared to be ushered along with your orders & don’t think it rude. Totally enjoyed my choices…if only I could remember their French names 😁 I do remember that the creme brulee was tobfie for. Merci!

We enjoyed a lovely dinner at this intimate French bistro. The pork rillette, steak frites and Dame Blanche were highlights. We also enjoyed the palate cleanser lemon sorbet and vodka (though not being much of a drinker, I'd have preferred to have enjoyed the sorbet without the vodka poured on top). Service was warm and friendly. It's a cosy, dim-lit setting that feels relaxed and welcoming. There are some interesting decorations to be observed too! I'd be keen to visit again.
