New York Magazine

This great value Asian sensation sizzles in deepest, darkest Kings Cross. Designer-papered feature walls, silk cushions in the cocktail bar area, and a great courtyard for outside dining.
Luxe City Guides

Seemingly everything at Libertine is brilliant -from the gold paint on the walls to the high standard of service led by owners Andrew and Jamie, and of course the food and drinks.
Bars & Clubs Magazine

Libertine fuses its food in that cocky New York style.prices are generously low for service and setting that pitches beyond it's bracket. 7 out of 10.
Scott Bowles - Sydney Morning Herald

With a beautiful comfy bar lounge, open patio, semi-private dining room and an Aussie chef that trained in the French restaurants of Vietnam, this place caters to all.

Libertine is sexy, it is sensual and it borders on dissolute - from the cuisine to the clientele, the waitstaff to the walls.Libertine is the Viagra of Kings Cross.
FUCM Magazine

This French-Vietnamese restaurant and bar personifies the new Kings Cross: sexy but not seedy, decadence without the dirt.House Champagne Henriot glides down far too smoothly, which in such seductive surroundings is a recipe for reckless behavior. But that of course is exactly what libertine likes to encourage.
Amy Cooper -Mixer /City Weekly

It's a cool, comfortable space tailor made for a large group, late dinner or drink on a steamy Sydney evening.Kellett street is better off for their presence.
