About Le Pas Sage

Right in Hindmarsh Square sits a punchy jolt of modern bistronomie—dim red lighting, jazz, and the playful pulse of a Parisian cabaret. Diners make a beeline for the seasonal tasting menus, anchored by a fork-tender duck confit settled over truffle mash. Tables fill fast with smoked salmon spooned alongside airy cream, walnut-garnished pumpkin soup, and warm baked Camembert. Drinks arrive with tarot-inspired notes, while seasoned regulars know to slip behind the faux bookshelf door to find the washroom. Wrap things up over a hot, molten chocolate fondant paired with cold vanilla ice cream.

  • Generous Degustation Menus: Multi-course seasonal feasts featuring generous portions of duck confit and paired French wines.
  • Cabaret Atmosphere: Moody dim lighting, rich red drapery, soft jazz, and a secret door tucked behind a bookshelf.
  • Tarot-Themed Cocktails: Playful drink menus featuring esoteric descriptions drawn from tarot cards.

Signature French bistro classics and degustation highlights

  • Confit Duck & Truffle Mash

    The duck was confit perfectly then lightly pan fried with spices sprinkled. The near fell off the bone and every bite was heavenly.

  • Baked Camembert

    The baked Camembert is pure indulgence, warm, gooey and rich, served with fresh bread perfect for dipping, alongside a simple salad brought to life by a dressing so vibrant and well-balanced.

  • Foie Gras

    For starters we had a Foie Gras which I was craving for. Yummm this came with a toasted brioche and a fig jam and some condiments on the side. I literally could not get enough of it.

  • Crème Brûlée

    The crème brûlée delivers that signature crack as your spoon breaks through the caramelised top, revealing a silky, soft centre that melts effortlessly on the palate.

  • Chocolate Fondant

    The chocolate fondant is equally divine, warm and oozing with molten chocolate, paired with a side of ice cream that creates the perfect hot-and-cold contrast.

    Janet’s Journey

  • Pumpkin Soup

    Finely layered with walnuts, micro herbs, pear slices and small bacon like slices. A beautiful nutty aroma well balanced light pumpkin soup with sweet, sour, savoury profiles each not overwhelming the other. Cannot fault it.
