Best Bistros in Loftus

Bistro Kai is probably the closest you will come to fine dining in Chatswood without any of the pretentiousness. The decor is comfortable and quite spacious and the service is not intrusive but friendly and helpful. The food is exceptionally good - we tried the octopus which was so very tender and well seasoned, the softest and tastiest sourdough from Cherrymoon Bakery that was toasted and served with a whipped Japanese style butter, the roasted brussel sprouts, the most tender wagyu beef short rib, a delicious chicken maryland with crisp skin and tender meat resting on mashed potato and an amazing abalone gravy (an amazing combo you should try) and their famous cheeseburger which was wonderful as usual. Paired with perfectly balanced creative cocktails, with the Pandan and Ube Irish Coffee and the Chonky Charlie Chaplin a particular standout. Very sad that their iconic tiramisu is not on the menu at the moment but hopefully will see a revival sometime soon! It is not cheap but not the most expensive either - our lunch came to $110pp including 2 alcoholic drinks each and 2 courses. But the food was exceptional and well worth the price. Definitely would recommend!

Our first experience at Tradies Caringbah. What a surprise and delight. Tasty food, ambience quiet enough, staff pleasant and attentive, and that view!! We will be back!!

The staff were very friendly and helpful, food was excellent and booked table was ideally located. Could not have been more enjoyable

Just all round amazing! What stands out most is the customer service. Everyone is friendly, kind and helpful. There is an amazing view of the beach and it’s a relaxed atmosphere. Love the soba noodles with tuna, always my go to.

We were first timers to the area. What a lovely place to dine. Staff were friendly, Meals were quick to come out. Proportions were huge & also priced reasonably. We joined the Club for a members discount. The kids loved looking at all the train station memorabilia which gave a station vibe.
