Does My Bomb Look Big In This

“We needed a name that better said what we are,” owner Gary Prebble explained when I finally worked out Bistro St. Jacques was Pitt St. Diner rebadged. With gold lettering on pink, blue and white French doors, done in an appropriate French bistro font, backed by dainty black chiffon curtains, it’s an eye-catching shop front. On display outside, the classic French bistro menu very nearly unseated my desire to visit Juan Bowl + Tea next door and was enough to lure me back on a second visit to Redfern the very next week. When we arrive for our booking, every table is full, and the restaurant buzzes with a convivial hum. Edison bulbs held captive inside black mesh pendant light shades exude a warm orange glow that illuminated the pretty pressed tin ceiling.

Outstanding food,great unique wine list and Gary is a wonderful host. Scallops and steak were a highlight, steak was better than the top steak houses in syd.
Our table of 4, including 10 year old, were absolutely spoilt rotten at Pitt St Diner. Delicious french-inspired food made with quality ingredients. We were delighted by the pricing too!
The drinks selection is massive and on the pricey side ($45+ per bottle) but... they are soooo worth it!
Steak and Frites are definitely the stand out dishes. But i would recommend the charcuterie and cheese platters too.
The service is a major stand out feature of Pitt St Diner: attentive, relaxed and knowledgeable. Plus, I think my son formed a little crush on our charming waitress.
Go try this people. We will be back for sure
