We recently stumbled upon Bistro Dom whilst staying in Adelaide. So glad that we did! The most amazing food, it felt like a little piece of France. We shared the terrine for entree which was nothing but amazing! beautiful flavour and the accompanyments were to die for. Mains I had the Lamb. I have never tasted anything at all like... More

My wife and I recently dined at Bistro Dom and found the food, service, wine list to be very good and we would not hesitate to recommend it to our friends when they visit Adelaide. We love French cuisine and are not easily pleased, and we were delighted with the experience. More

Having been to this restaurant before (December 2010) we had high expectations for the food and service. From the moment we walked in we could tell that things had changed. There was no one to meet and seat us - one of the two very busy waiters eventually found a moment to seat us. First we got the wine list... More

This is a chic French bistro with a great atmosphere and extremely good food albeit the portions can be a little light on. I have found the service is a bit hit and miss and could be improved. In all a very nice place for a quiet city lunch. More

The patrons at Bistro Dom are foodies who know and love their French dining experience. No spare tables, a happy atmosphere, attentive service and a most creative presentation of the various courses, all prepared us for an enjoyable experience. Sadly the air conditioning was not working and this detracted from the evening. The wine list carried an extensive selection of... More

Had dinner with my friends on Saturday, were served some of the best food in living memory. Just so nice to go out, not spend alot of money on great produce. Wine list is a bit expensive but mainly French so understandable. Will be back! Love it love it love it More

I had such great expectations for this restaurant and was supremely disappointed.Under its previous chef this was foodie heaven,but now sadly it cannot deliver the same standards.Fatty chewy meats,fried fish served stewing in its own juices-so much so that it was rubbery and a distinct lack of attention to detail.When one pays these prices ,one should be entitled to expect...
