Australia's ten best restaurants

It is always difficult deciding which are the top ten restaurants in Australia. There are so many good restaurants and there are so many different yardsticks by which you can judge a restaurant.
We have assembled the ten restaurants that we think simply serve the best food. They don't have to be the most expensive or the most opulent. But they must consistently serve great food.
It is interesting to note that seven of our choices are from Sydney. C'est la vie! This is currently a very exciting city for food - in fact it is one of the most exciting cities anywhere in the world at present.

1.        Pier Restaurant   More... HeartHeartHeart
Pier Restaurant sits over the alluring waters of Sydney Harbour and dispenses expertly cooked seafood in congenial surroundings. We think it deserves its rank as the best in the land for the amazingly precise cooking, the wonderful service and the positioning of the food which is very modern and progressive without falling over the line into fadism.

2.        Claude's   More... HeartHeartHeart
We were worried when Claude's changed hands but the concern was totally misplaced. In fact, we believe that we could be about to witness Claude's finest hour under the deft hands of the new owner.
The other thing to treasure about this fine restaurant is that the chef actually cooks here! Something that is becoming increasingly rare in the age of the megastar chef.

6.        Quay   More... HeartHeartHeart
This lovely restaurant has quietly crept into the ranks of greatness without a great deal of fanfare. The entrée of pork belly with jellyfish, scallops and Chinese mushrooms has become one of australia's most sought-after dishes, but everything else is wonderful as well.

8.        Vue de Monde   More... Heart
Vue de Monde is certainly special and the chef is certainly obsessive. We love the food here although sometimes there is too much emphsis on one ingredient such as fresh truffles.

10.        Rockpool   More...
Neil Perry's flagship restaurant has been changed to make it less formal and less of a major dining experience. The menu is quite extensive but the cooking is sharp and focussed and the seafood snappingly fresh.
