Melbourne’s most authentic French brasserie. With the panache of a Parisian bistro, France-Soir is a Melbourne institution and it’s easy to see why. Full most nights and busy over lunch, this tiny eatery on Toorak Road in South Yarra is a bustling, noisy restaurant where wins are celebrated, deals are done and A-listers fleet in and out of. At France Soir, it is as much about expert service and casual bonhomie from theatrical, French speaking waiters who deftly weave around close-set tables, as it is about the menu that's changed little over 26 years. This restaurant, brasserie and bar is one of a kind. The character and atmosphere is hard to replicate.
