La Lune is a French restaurant situated at George Street in East Fremantle, Western Australia.[1] [2]
Food critic Rob Broadfield has commented on the establishment, describing it as the most French restaurant he has visited in the state. It claims to be a 'New York take on the French bistro'.[1]
The restaurant seats 88 people.[1] Its interior has bentwood cafe chairs and retro booze posters, and the walls are decorated in a mirrored room with bottles of wine and pastis.
Operating as a French bistro, the restaurant's kitchen utilises grenobloise, velouté and meunière sauces. It has eight entrées, 12 mains, and four desserts including creme brule and mille feuille. Modern dishes are included, with cheeseburgers and tagliatelle with lobster sauce on the menu in addition to traditional French dishes. Other dishes served include bavette, béarnaise, and frites,
Its wine list is mostly Australian with some European imports.
The venue was opened by Sam Davies alongside his wife Helen Pow. As of October 2022, the venue manager is Sarah Davis, formerly of Madalena's in South Freo, as well as Cook & Mason.
Reviewers have praised the amuse bouche, which was described by Rob Broadfield in WAToday as 'flaky, large, and stuffed with a filling of swimmer crab'. The béarnaise sauce was described as 'a ripper, but should have been more acidic'. Giving the venue a 16/20 review, he wrote:
Writing for The West Australian, food reviewer Simon Collins gave the venue a 15.5/20 writing:[1]
