    Love what Porcine does - their attention to detail and laser focus on French cuisine not food trends. Great to have food that is different to a lot of other restaurants and executed so well. Highly recommend the pigeon parfait. Enjoyed a delicious bottle of skin contact Italian wine.

    Authentic french bistro vibe with excellent fine dining. The menu was enticing. The food and level of cooking was highly impressive. Never mind a bad dish, there wasn’t a single average dish here - from the warm oysters, gougere, trois comte plate, pate, turkey farsi, mouth-watering pigeon, and Christmas “pudding”. Some serious, on-point cooking backed up with terrific service in a relaxed atmosphere.

    The service was outstanding, good banter, excellent knowledge very engaging, the food was extremely high quality. Everything we ate was an adventure for the tastebuds. Titillatingly good. Each mouthful of each meal was somehow as good if not better than the sample before. The paired drinks were also delightful. A truly unforgettable night, and one that we’ll reflect on until the next tasting.

    Food was divine and the service was great. It feels like you're eating at a friends house. Don't skip a glass (or two) of wine downstairs before you head up. Not sure when we'll be back in Sydney, but returning to Porcine is a must.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The explanations of each dish was comprehensive and we enjoyed each dish. The rainbow trout, mussels on toast, and oysters were our favourites.
