L'Hotel Gitan

L'Hotel Gitan sits on Commercial Road in Prahran, a stylish inner-south-east Melbourne suburb. A much-loved French restaurant, it's earned a strong reputation — combining quality, authentic French cooking with good wine and a warm, characterful setting, the kind of accomplished, romantic spot that brings genuine French charm to the Prahran dining scene.

The appeal is that combination of quality, authentic French food, a good wine-and-drinks offering and an elegant, characterful atmosphere in a great Prahran location, ideal for a special dinner, a meal with friends, a date or a memorable night out. Quality French cooking done well is a genuine treat, and L'Hotel Gitan has clearly won over a devoted following in the inner south-east.

With a 4.5 rating from more than 650 reviews, it's clearly delighting its diners. Menus, the wine list, 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 Prahran.
