Review Linda's On King - Newtown

Sergio Soto
Great food, well priced with good service. I haven’t been for a few years since the pandemic, glad to see Linda’s is still open

Been here with both family and friends and both times can't recommend high enough. First time had the lamb, second the beef cheeks. Both times everything was cooked perfectly. Had dessert both times and both were 😋 Everyone has loved everything, but the spinach ravioli seems to stand out above the rest! The wine selection is good, and the beer selection is pretty good too. Not many beers to choose from, but the ones selected are good, exactly what you expect in Newtown. Service is great, and it has a very relaxed, cozy atmosphere. It's an excellent dining experience, whilst also feeling like your local. Go in already and find out for yourself!

Fantastic boutique restaurant on King St. Perfect for date nights or an intimate dinner. From the outside the service and atmosphere was very homely and welcoming, you just feel really comfortable. As if you were having dinner at a mates house. The food was to a great standard and good value for money. We ordered the Octopus and Goat cheese souffle to start (pictured) and the steak and duck confit for main. Everything was top class. Drink wise, It's both licensed and BYO. Wine list is reasonably priced and BYO is $5 a bottle which is a small price to ensure you have your favourite bottle of plonk on hand. They'll bring you a snazzy side table ice bucket for white and sparkling which we thought was a lovely touch. Will be back again for sure 😊

Sublime Magnifique. What an amazing culinary experience. Lynda is an amazing chef. Graham the cocktails are marvelous especially the Margaritas 🍹.Linda the waitress was charming and attentive. We shared the entrees of the salt and pepper prawn, eggplant and zucchini fritters, duck and pork rillettes. The mains of BBQ LAMB Backstrap and seafood stew was absolutely delicious. Will definitely be coming back.

As a coeliac, I really appreciate a place that offers plentiful gluten free options including ALL the desserts. Fine dining at a reasonable price. Charming ambience yet unpretentious.

First time I have had the luxury to try the new venue - Graham has an awesome space (or spaces) to preside over - and he does with his usual charm and efficiency. The larger kitchen fits a maestro of Linda's talents and the fresh clear flavours just keep coming. A compact menu with a wide range of delicious choices, good wine selection at very reasonable prices - and always leave room for some desert.

Had one of the most memorable dinning experiences I've had for some time at Linda's on King last night. Wandering around King looking for something new, my friend and I stumbled past an unassuming specials board that drew me in a split second with offerings of kangaroo fillet W/ beetroot puree and blue berries, we were sold. We were kindly greeted (despite me wearing an outfit more appropriate for a rave than dinning) and seated in an ambient setting that seemed to fine dinning's perfect attempt at riffing a casual environment. Once presented with the menu, we were overwhelmed with options that all seemed to offer a brilliant dinning experience but my love of traditional French won out and I went with the Duck confit W/ duck fat potato's, Brussels sprouts and red wine pear and the Christmas Pudding cocktail. Within 15 minutes we were presented with pipping hot, aromatic plates where the eye was drawn to all of the small details. I have to say.. Duck Confit is a dish that I simply have never said no to on a menu and can compare what I had at Linda's to 20+ other times I've had this dish and it was simply the most succulent and delicious piece of duck that I've had. I'm also at a loss as to how you guys have found such a balance with the elements used in the Christmas pudding cocktail, it was superb. Linda's will be a dinning experience that I will defiantly be repeating and would highly suggest to anyone else.

Linda's has been one of our favorites for sometime and after a short break they returned to King Street, this time with a kids menu. It has been a cornerstone of the newtown dinning scene for ages and they really reflect the culture in this part of Sydney. The restaurant is lovely and rustic however the quality of food and gluten free options are excellent. Being BYO is also great especially if you have a well stocked wine fridge at home. We have had quite a few dinners here plus recommended them to Peterson house who held a members dinner here a while back. They put on a great show and closed the restaurant for 2 nights to cater for the wine dinners. Well worth a look.

Beautiful interesting food prepared with care and attention to the seasonal freshness of ingredients. Amazing value and excellent service. Why am I telling you this?! I should keep this terrific restaurant a secret!

Have known them for 20+ years. Linda's food is wonderful. I still talk about her seafood chowder even though it's no longer in the menu. Make sure you leave room for dessert. �

I went to Linda's for the first time on 5 October and just loved it! The food was delicious. We were in a big group and the service was excellent, all our meals arrived at the same time. I would definitely recommend Linda's to friends and.....I'll be back!
Lisa Stow
Ate at Linda's last night, for the first time since their move, and was not disappointed...had 3 courses and each of them was absolutely delicious!

I'm not a fan of Linda's. The first and last time I visited, I ordered the pork belly which wasn't even crispy. It was very amateur looking and tasting. It was like chewing a rubber band. I'm too scared to go back as I don't want to risk wasting my money again. On the bright side, the staff and restaurant was good.
Matt Ellis
we had a fabulous meal. we've loved Linda's since the "Backstage " era at the Newtown, the service was slow but the place was full and it was Friday night. we always love Linda's. I'm sure they will iron out the service as they settle in. we'll be back.
