Pistou

Pistou sits on King Street in Newtown, one of Sydney's most vibrant, eclectic inner-west suburbs. A much-loved restaurant, it's earned a strong reputation — combining accomplished, flavour-packed cooking with good drinks and a warm, characterful setting, the kind of quality neighbourhood spot that's become a genuine favourite on the lively King Street strip.

The appeal is that combination of quality food, a good drinks offering and a relaxed, characterful atmosphere in a great Newtown location, ideal for a special dinner, a meal with friends, a date or a sociable night out. A restaurant that's nailed both its cooking and its warm, welcoming feel really stands out, and Pistou has clearly won over a loyal following.

With a 4.7 rating from more than 300 reviews, it's clearly delighting its diners. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular restaurant fills up over weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly where needed before you go — particularly for a weekend, a group or a table at a peak time in Newtown.
