About Le Splendide

South Yarra’s slice of nocturnal Paris trades phone screens for red velvet, live music, and cold martinis. At the door, stickers go over camera lenses to keep the room entirely unplugged—no filming, no glowing feeds. Regulars pop in for a post-dinner nightcap along Toorak Road, settling in over rare vintage pours, whiskies, and classic French plates sent straight from the adjacent France-Soir kitchen, from beef tartare to duck rillettes.

  • Screen-Free Policy: Adhesive stickers placed over phone camera lenses at the door enforce a strict no-photo policy for an unplugged, discrete evening.
  • France-Soir Plates: Classic bistro bites—including beef tartare, duck rillettes, and oysters—arrive straight from the neighbouring France-Soir kitchen.
  • Curated Pours & Live Sets: Live music pairs with crisp martinis, rare vintage wines, and an extensive whisk(e)y selection.
