This restaurant has great atmosphere and an outstanding wine list. Exceptional food, but it comes at a rather hefty price.

My husband and I went here for our birthday dinner after it being recommended by a number of locals. However, we were disappointed. We were sat by the single glazed window and I was very cold throughout the evening. I understand that it was a very cold night but I sat all evening with my jacket on and no waiting... More

I love this restaurant. A friend of mine swears by this place and organised a night out there when she was in town last (incidentally, every time she comes to Canberra, she goes to dinner herre!!)I visited here about two months ago and just fell in love. Will definitely take my fiance there for a lovely romantic dinner (or he... More

Only thing which was dissapointing were the servings even by french standards they were on the small... More

Hadn't been to Courgette for a while and wasn't sure what to expect. I was really impressed by the changes made since my last visit. The dining room has that intimate feel that is a must for any fine dining establishment. Backed up by sophisticated food and service, the overall experience was heightened. Well done to the team at Courgette,... More

Incredible! I am not a fan of fancy restaurants. So often the food is too rich and over the top. Courgette is wonderful. I had the crab salad, tomato tartare tartin, snapper and the tastes of chocolate desert. All absolutely incredible! I was there for work, but will definitely be back for fun!

My husband and I went for dinner to celebrate our 2nd wedding anniversary. We were greeted as soon as we got inside and shown to our table. The service was wonderful - they gave just enough time for us to make our decision (some restaurants make you wait so long). Thank you to all the front of house staff. Four... More

Had a work-related dinner here with a large group. Had the four-course menu at $75 pp not including wine. The service was impeccable. Everyone was so impressed the menu choices - which made it hard to choose. The food when it arrived looked like each element had been handcrafted and placed - stunning presentation. It didn't disappoint with taste either.... More
