Delicious food and drinks, great service and a variety of options for meals or happy hour
Not that good...
Dissapointed... Too hectic, too expensive for the low quality of food you get. Extremly salty. Very pushy waiters. No time to relax. We didn't like it.
Absolutely stunning.
The ambiance is amazing with the live band. My partner and I had such a good time. I still reminisce on the food I got there. The duck pate is *chefs kiss*
Fantastic
Fantastic atmosphere, friendly and knowledgable staff and incredible food. Can’t wait to return. One of the best meals I’ve ever had.
Don't trust the hours.
So frustrating. It's not hard to just post actual hours.................
Great food, bar and atmosphere!
Very nice place, lively atmosphere , good live music, good energy and good food. Ideal also if you are travelling and want to have a nice lunch by the bar or drinks
Hubert you were divine.
Absolutely stunning lunch for my birthday at Restaurant Hubert. Visiting from the US and had heard they were good, but it was next level. Outstanding service from Beatrix and the team - superb cocktails and Sydney Rock Oysters to kick things off, and just a fabulous selection of classic French favorites. The Murray Cod Vin Jaune was incredible, the Bavette steak melt in the mouth and the smaller sirloin just as good. The restaurant is located in a historic theater and the room and decor was stunning as well. A great jazz trio was playing for the holiday day and made an amazing afternoon even better. Not rushed at any time, just a wonderful time. Not cheap, but absolutely no problems with that whatsoever. Best French food experience ever in Australia or USA.
Would came again for sure. Food was top notch.
Wow wow wow. What a restaurant. Absolute fantastic dinning experience. For the service, atmosphere, food and entertainment all absolutely fantastic. My only issue we all felt was the 2 hour dinning was a little rushed and 3 hours would have been perfect.
Amazing atmosphere and excellent food
What a place!!! What a venue. As if one is suddenly transported to another era. Live jazz music does this. The restaurant is amazing and the bar sitting we selected allowed us a great view of the band. We had the Steak Tartare with fries as an hors d' oeuvre and then we continued with the Sirloin and The Boeuf Bourguinon. Everything was prepared and presented to perfection. This is not by no means a cheap restaurant, but it is worth every cent. Service was friendly and professional. The tiny chous we were offered as a complimentary dessert was a great move. A must.
Fabulous, Fun and Delicious!
Fantastic service - welcoming maitre d’hotel, warm and extremely helpful waiter, expert sommelier. Fabulous and fun atmosphere - space has great decor and ambience with perfect lighting, jazz band was great and not overly loud Excellent food and wine - escargot was great, perfectly executed and delicious Gruyère soufflé, very special duck a l’orange which was so moist and flavorful, great white and red wine pairings by the sommelier
Brilliant!
The best restaurant we went to in Sydney, recommended by our tour guide. The food and atmosphere was flawless and the staff very attentive.
The Best Food in Sydney
The jazz band was awesome and thanks for letting us share our entree and side. It was plenty. The chicken Fricassee was fantastic. Don't leave Sydney without eating here, but make your reservation ASAP. It books up quick.
Beautiful and amazing experience.
So fun having the music entertainment. Have never seen that before at a restaurant. The food was great too!
A couple of my friends recently returned from Sydney, and
A couple of my friends recently returned from Sydney, and they said if there was only one place they suggest I go to eat - it was Restaurant Hubert. Specifically the happy hour. So I did! They don't take reservations for their 5-6pm happy hour. You can only line up at 5pm when they open. We got there right before 5pm, and there were probably 10 to 12 people in line. Once the doors opened we were led downstairs to the bar area. It's a very dark, and feels like you've been transported to another time and place. We decided to try one of each of the food items on the happy hour: - Duck Parfait - Good. Classic French item and they do it well. - Brandade d'anguilles fumée - OK. I know it's eel, but wasn't very distinct from any other fish. My least favourite dish. - Saucisson Sec - Good. Simple. - Fleur de Courgette - Very good. Delicate and delicious. I should've ordered two of these. - Normandy Burger - Very good. The one item my friends raved about, and it was clear why. A burger with the best ingredients is hard to matched. I got the extra side of fries which is equally good. Best dish of the meal. Service was relatively good, except at one point they asked if I wanted mayo for my fries (very French) and I said yes, but it never came. Other than that, quite good. This was easily my favourite meal of my trip, holding up to high expectations. I would return on my next trip to Sydney.
Great food, very good service. Amazing experience
Last night, I had possibly the best meal I’ve ever had. Crab salad with brioche, Gruyère soufflé. Followed by the best steaks I’ve I have ever had and a sublime lobster. The others had a crème caramel and chocolate sponge. Two excellent bottles of pinot noir. Background music was a mellow jazz band. Great service. Thank you Hubert, Sydney. Thoroughly recommended.
I have dreams of Restaurant Hubert's Chicken Fricassée.
Note: Happy Hour is walk-in only from 5PM - 6PM. We came on a Thursday evening and there was a line inside prior to opening. I highly recommend getting here early to get a seat during Happy Hour and stay after to enjoy some live jazz after 6PM. The restaurant was easy to locate with a sign upfront. The entrance is just a door in the wall with spiraling stairs leading you to an underground jazz bar and restaurant. It's upscale and romantic, but several other people were dressed casually. We sat on a shared table with three other strangers until we ordered off the full menu and our Chicken Fricassée arrived. The service is top notch and everyone was attentive, polite, and kind. We started off with the happy hour menu and ordered the Duck Parfait. I didn't know what to expect. The croutons were crispy and delicate and the duck liver was easy to spread and airy. The Normandy Burger was juicy and the bread was fluffy. But the star of the night Chicken Fricassée - wow! Incredibly tender, juicy, and garlicy. The sauce had a mashed potato buttery, smooth texture. Absolute must get.
Good food, good drinks, good service.
Live music by jazz trio was great. Piped music selections also good. You won't be disappointed!
Nice restaurant in Sydney.
Very popular so you have to make a reservation beforehand. The inside is very spacious but you have to go down some stairs so can be a bit claustrophobic. They have a nice theater area and place for jazz band. The servers are very attentive and friendly. I got the beef tartare and my friend got the steak. Both were really delicious.
Amazing food! Attentive service.
Overall a really good experience. Highly recommend.
Hubert was the perfect way to round out our foodie
Hubert was the perfect way to round out our foodie experience in Sydney! As you descend down the stairs to the central dining room, you're immediately transported to a refined and lively restaurant. The interior design and decor is vintage and avant-garde. The live music elevates the venue to match the wonderful service. The delicious cuisine is truly a love letter to France. I wish I took more photos but that's what happens when you're really enjoying the incredible restaurant experience this place has to offer!
Delicious Dinner
The food was amazing. I enjoyed everything from the bread to dessert. The best for me was the cheese soufflé and the steak. The live jazz band made the atmosphere more French. Expensive but worth a visit if you’re in the Sydney CBD.
Good food and live jazz but better for dates than business meeting
The restaurant is underground led by a long curvy staircase down into a dim dining hall. They have a live jazz band which lends an atmosphere during dining but if you are here for a business lunch then the music might be a bit distracting. The food is generally good. The entrées such as the kingfish sashimi, oysters and escargots were delicious. Bread was also delicious but they should have been served before the entrées. Mains were well executed - we had the sirloin and lamb chops. The lamb chops were from a superior cut but I find the sauce a bit too salty. It would have been better if the sauce were a bit more subtle. Service was generally good and friendly. Overall, quite a good experience but I found the music a bit too distracting for a business meal, although it would have been good for a date.
Nice place but way too expensive for what they offer
French restaurant. Very nice setting, great live jazz play, hard to get a table. The food is great, meat quality high, fish great. Excellent fries. Vast wine list but choices are limited n the end rather limited. They not only serve French good but also with the typical French manner and mood .. rather arrogant, chaotic with a lack of precision. Tremendously expensive for what they offer .. (especially the wines where the multiples are rather shocking).
Restaurant Hubert is alive and has soul. A lovely dinner
This restaurant has soul. My wife has a problem accessing by stairs, so a person leaving the restaurant by the front door guided her to the elevator and she arrived guided by the Maître D. That was just part of the allowance made for her accessibility. I had been able to read the menu online so had chosen in my mind, some of the dishes I would eat. I had escargot with XO butter and baguette. Very tasty way soaking up the sauce. My wife had the swimmer crab dish. My wife followed up with lamb, a quite large dish that I helped her with after my serve of Murray Cod. I had chosen side dishes too with kimchi and potatoes Desserts too were delicious. My wife had the Gateau au Chocolat, and I ordered the Tart Tatin aux Pommes. The wine list is comprehensive too, even the wines by the glass which we use if we are enjoying different meals. I thought the prices of the glasses were good and staff suggested a cross section of wines. I said at the start of this review, that the restaurant has soul. The people there were great. Sarah visited the table several times and saw us out. The entertainment is just another side, Jazz while we were there for our early sitting. I would love to think we could be back there soon
Hidden gem.
Down three flights of stairs to very French restaurant with trio jazz band. Plenty of tables plus bar area. They even have a multi seat theatre. Food good. We had boeuf bougenoin. Very good
Nice food
Nice French food. Splendid meal. The steak and fries are really good. Also liked the oysters and tartare. The service makes this place extra special.
Exceptional food and drinks
Exceptional place for good food and drinks. The atmosphere is amazing too - love the jazz. Restaurant Hubert is the place to be.
If you want French don’t go to Hubert
This is promoted as a French restaurant, nothing could be further from the truth. The atmosphere was decidedly un French , certainly not Parisian. The music could not have been further from France, and the sound level was intolerable. Then the steak with frites. The steak tasted of nothing and we suspected had been sous vided, the frites were soggy, the salad passable. The wait staff were efficient, but sympathetic when we pointed out the poor food. Perhaps the best part was the Shiraz.France is a long way from Sydney, a lot has been lost in a culinary sense.
Old fashioned jazz joint, but also very chic, worth the money
This is a great place for elegant dining. Delighted to see young crowd on a weekday night. Jazz group with singer was great. No elevator, down 2 flights of stairs. Very neat old jazz club. Great food. Many come dressed in an evening strapless dress and some wear whatever.
Excellent meal with great atmosphere
Excellent meal with wonderful raspy Jazz singer playing double bass. Gruyère soufflé for starters and passion fruit soufflé for dessert were the highlights particularly the wonderfully light and fluffy passion fruit soufflé. Great buzzy atmosphere. Really enjoyed a wonderful evening there. Merci!
Great food
The food is really good. Enjoyed the kingfish, oysters, prime beef tartare, escargot, cote de beouf and chicken fricassee.
Hidden gem…
Beautiful little restaurant. Very discreet. Beautiful decor. Service was excellent, food was delicious. Oysters were amazing. Loved the dirty martini and snails escargot. Live band was cute. Would definitely go back.
Excellent food, fabulous French vibes
Restaurant Hubert is simply magnifique! The vibe starts from the front doors and the wall of artwork and mini liquor bottles adorning the walls. The spiral stairs, red velvets and wood panels feels like a throwback to 1920s decadent Paris, it really sets up a dramatic scene as the jazz from the live band makes its presence known. Total lush. We celebrated a special birthday and Hubert exceeded every one of the high expectations we had from all the positive reviews. Our waiter ran through the venue and made recommendations and explained each dish in detail. We opted for the cheese soufflé and duck pate for starters. Both were exceptional, the duck pate was the best I’ve ever had. For mains we shared the house speciality chicken fricassee, sautéed greens and pommes frites. The chicken, oh my word, what a feast. It was amazing, buttery goodness, moist and just simply the best chicken ever. There was enough we had leftovers to take with us. The pommes frites were seasoned with seaweed salt and these elevated them to a whole other level. For dessert we had the passion fruit soufflé - again, absolutely delicious, light and airy and the perfect way to end a rich meal. The beverage list is massive - very impressive cocktails, wines and liquor. Can’t wait to go back!
Great venue, excellent staff and nice atmosphere
Recommended to us by the concierge at our hotel. We had a very enjoyable dinner in a relaxed environment. The food throughout was of a high-quality with the two of us having very different choices of meals, (starters and main only). The restaurant environment was extremely nice and the staff were over high-quality insuring that we had everything we wanted at all times. We would definitely return again and would happily recommend it to anybody else in Sydney
Wonderful service and absolutely loved the vibe of both the
Wonderful service and absolutely loved the vibe of both the restaurant and the bar with a funky live jazz band setting the scene. But the food.... really not up to the standard expected of a $1,200 bill (half wine, half food) for four people. Steak tartare (my go to dish across the world) was not presented well, lacked flavour (could taste no capers or onion) and came without the raw yolk (which the maître d' advised was the Italian way, not the French way - which doesn't match my experience in France but anyway). First time I've left any (in this case, most of it) on my plate. My friends all had a try but weren't keen either. The oysters were sensational. The prawn and scallop terrine was coated in burnt breadcrumbs which completely ruined the flavour. The Cote de Boeuf rib eye was tasty but like the other reviewer discovered, was very chewy (and rare not medium rare as ordered - they would have taken it back if I'd requested but my friends didn't want to wait and I prefer rare anyway so was quietly happy ;)). The foie gras was superb. The Pommes Anna recommended by our super lovely waitress, were full of flavour with the miso buerre blanc. The sorbets for dessert were really good - probably my favourite dish of the night, which is unusual for me as I'm more of a savoury fan than sweet. All in all, very disappointing food, but the excellent ambiance and service made it an enjoyable night. Not sure I'd return unless they changed chef though. (Sorry chef but when commanding these prices, you need to bring your best game and not let food out that doesn't meet standard). Nb: I did give the feedback to the Maître d' who listened well and said he'd pass on the feedback. I hope he does as this place has everything else going for it and could quite easily become one of my favourite places to take Sydney visitors. On a side note: they kindly arranged a table for us at the bar when our 2-hour time limit was up which was welcomed as it would have felt a bit rushed if we were expected to leave the moment we'd completed the third course.
Just wrapping up a 1 month vacation.
The last 5 days of which were spent in Sydney. What a wonderful experience it has been. Love the city and the people. Hope we are able to experience more of Australia someday. A new friend suggested looking on YouTube for things to do in Sydney. It is much better than the guide book I bought. While searching YouTube I came across Janice Fung. Her recommendations of places to visit and eat were spot on. Am so glad I saw her review of Restaurant Hubert. It was our last night and we wanted something with beef. She said that the steaks in Australia are delicious. We had a huge brunch @ Sydney Fish Market, so a luscious steak dinner seemed like a bit too much, so I remembered her happy hour suggestion of Restaurant Hubert. We didn't plan it, but we arrived there @ about 4:45. There was a line outside. We were maybe the 30th in line. After seeing the line, I was hoping we would make the cut. We did!! It was truly one of the best burgers I have ever had. It was simple and so delicious. That is the 1st time I ever had gruyere cheese on a burger. Fantastic! I also tried the fried zucchini blossoms. It tasted like crispy tempura. We were seated @ the bar, and despite being extremely busy, he was so nice and helpful. He explained a couple of different drinks for me. I decided on the Negroni. It was my very 1st and 2nd! Delicious. All the staff were very nice and friendly. Restaurant Hubert is 20/10 in my opinion. Go early to make sure you get in. I think happy hour is only an hour 5-6 in the bar area. Am so glad we got in! It was a wonderful way to finish our last night of vacation and our last night in Sydney!
What's to say? This place is probably the hottest seat in
What's to say? This place is probably the hottest seat in Sydney (sorry, Quay). Excellent service, incredible food, and you have a live band...how's that's for ambiance?
We are very picky where we eat.
We are huge foodies. We eat at high end restaurants and do tasting menus. I picked this spot for my birthday. Super excited to try... The waiter was super rude and pushy. We ordered and he kept pushing we should order more food. We said we were good but he kept saying we needed more. First red flag. After we go our main courses the waiter disappeared. No one came by to fill up our waters after that. No one checked in. My husbands steak was the most chewy steak he has ever eaten! Took him forever to chew and it was 65! My pasta was just average. Definitely nothing special It was my birthday and others around me were getting birthday desserts... not me. They literally forgot about our table lol! (We added it was Mr birthday to the res) We finally went up to the front to pay because it was ridiculous waiting an hour for someone to come by and acknowledge we were there. Honestly I'm going to discuss this with my credit card company if we aren't refunded at least some of the meal. So so saaaaad. Spent $200 for nothing.
The food, service, and ambiance were all fantastic!

Excellent service, delicious food and entertaining atmosphere and live music! A must experience.
The candle lit atmosphere, music, and food was incredible!
The candle lit atmosphere, music, and food was incredible! We are from Florida but a local friend recommended it and we're thrilled to have experienced the warmth of the hostess and waitress.
Jazz music, candlelight, or historic building, beautiful
Jazz music, candlelight, or historic building, beautiful people, wonderful staff, how could you not be happy, happy. I love this place. I ordered steak and french fries and a nice glass of red wine perfect. What a minute... am i in France or Australia! Delicious! Fries cooked thin and perfect steak cook wonderfully red. Btw Phoebe was the hostess with the mostest. She handled the crowd so well. The band was fantastic. Calvin Welch is a master.
This was our favorite restaurant that we went to when
This was our favorite restaurant that we went to when visiting Sydney. The speakeasy vibe was very cool and we loved the live jazz performance. We sat at the bar which was very comfortable and split a variety of small dishes between us. We enjoyed everything that we ordered for both food and drinks.
