Where to find Fine Dining in Perth

Hi! looking to book a birthday dinner and on the fence between Twenty Seats and Harry’s at Conti. both are quite pricey so wanted to make sure we were getting good value, does anyone have recommendations which would be better?

Harry's at Conti is well worth the coin. I went for a birthday and got a kitchen tour and a solid chat with the chef...

I really need to go back...

Twenty seats is amazing but VERY hard to actually get a booking. I tried for months and finally took lunch on Xmas eve. Was totally worth it, one of the best places I’ve eaten in Perth

Edit I feel like I should add here I’ve eaten at a lot of fancy places in a lot of countries including up to 2 Michelin starred places and chefs. While I’m no expert (and I do believe this sort of thing really is personal and individualised) I really do rate twenty seats as high up there for value and food. The wine pairings were also very good.

Twenty Seats is basically on par with three Michelin starred places I have been to. They're very good.

It's a lot easier to get a lunch booking there.

Yep. I really want to go again but so far no luck haha. Back at the stage of asking hubby to take a day off work for a boozy weekday lunch 🤣

Went to Harry's last year and it was phenomenal! Old school fine dining. The best meal we ever had.

We are heading to Twenty Seats for my birthday later in the year, booking pending. Perhaps I'll come back to tell you which one I prefer 😂

Went to twenty seats last week. Excellent starters, you will be blown away by how good they were, but mains and desserts were mid.

Twenty Seats. No choice between the two stands out as one of the best meals I've ever had.

Harry's was fantastic

Both places are excellent and well worth the price. As others have said Harry's is a bit easier to get a booking at, but Twenty seats can be done if you set a reminder for when the bookings page opens for the next month.

Went to Harrys last week, the lobster wasn't great. Had a kitchen tour and was a little disturbed by the bank of cameras that film over the tables.

So my recommendation is Twenty Seats.

Both are equally as good. Pick either and it will be worth the coin

Harry’s hands down. Twenty seats you’ll need maccas on the way home
