Review on Yelp – “My experience at Frasers was no ordinary one. My boyfriend brought me here for our anniversary and we enjoyed 5 courses of Western Australia’s finest food and wine. Kings Park is the perfect location, with the private dining room featuring a massive glass wall, which meant our degustation experience also had the perfect view. The food was ridiculously amazing and although pricey, still good value for the amount of food and wine we had. There is a different menu for the degustation dinners so there isn’t one dish I could recommend. The service was amazing and overall it definitely exceeded my expectations. I would recommend Frasers to anyone, and I would also recommend trying one of the degustation dinners they offer” – Joelene P

Review on Restaurant Guru – “Very important event for my grandson’s 21st birthday. Absolutely wonderful evening with family and friends. Service was second to none, food choices were very well put together. As per usual I was too busy eating instead of taking at least one photo of the beautiful presentation. Thank you for a very special evening. We’ll definitely be back.” – Christine Mohr

Review on Zomato – “I had booked the table online to celebrate one of my staff’s awards. I appreciated that they had read my booking – from months ago – and made the point to talk about it as we walked in. We had a great table by the window, with a beautiful view. The staff was amazing, very attentive, making sure my colleague’s food was gluten free. The food was fantastic. I ordered the filet of fish which was coated in sesame seed and served with a lemon myrtle emulsion: delicious! At the end of the meal, they gave us some sweets in a plate with the words « congratulations » for my staff. I loved the attention to detail in such a beautiful location.” – Arnaud Michelin

Review on Yelp – “This place is one of the oldest Perth establishments, and nothing old about it, its simply brilliant, and don’t try to compare it to anything else in Perth. Small menu, small wine list, but both concentrated to please even the most distinguished palate. I like big servings, but here I was happy to enjoy the balanced servings that were perfectly sized to enjoy multiple choices. Its not cheap, but worth it. Go spoil yourself. Make sure to start with a few excellent cocktails or a classic vodka or gin Martini, and make it very dirty. Service is impeccable, make sure to book for anything more than two, but don’t hesitate to try your luck for two.” – Pieter G

Review on Yelp – “Great decore, and excellent food. Really enjoyable meal in a great space, but beware, the food is spicy, although the staff were great at warning about the ‘heat’. Was just a pity we could stay longer. Definitely worth a visit, in particular if you love Thai or spicy food.” – Toby H
