I've been meaning to try Camus since it opened and last night I finally did. It's located in a busy section of High Street Northcote and parking can be a little challenging. That said, it's a destination that makes it worth persevering. The welcome is warm and the staff are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. Head chef Pierre Khodja works in an open kitchen at the back, so he can keep a tight rein on service and customer satisfaction. The menu is small, but there are many tempting choices and everything is cooked to perfection. Dish after dish left the pass causing us large doses of order envy and a resolve to return and work through the menu. Wine and cocktail choices reflect the same ca...

OK, So I'm the last to know? Really? I must be, it seems every time I ring to book they are fully booked....now I know why! Everyone must know about this place already, down from Ruckers Hill at the start of Northcote, a sensational find. French Algerian influenced cuisine?... that's a bit different for Melbourne, and this find adds to the general foodie charm of Northcote, but lifts it way more than just a notch. This is a new level. This is fine dining, Exquisite tastes, clever presentation, adventurous pairings of classic dishes with new spices and rubs. ...I guess the experience of a Michelin starred chef or Michelin starred restaurant experience in the UK...it's all on show here...The m...

Having enjoyed Camus for a family lunch a few months ago, we decided to return one Friday evening recently. Initially shown upstairs to a newly opened dining room, which we immediately rejected as it was very bright and uninviting, we were finally settled at a table on the ground floor with a great view of the pass and the hardworking chefs. After a delicious starter of creamy burrata, with house-baked rolls, good olive oil and dukkah, we shared mains of the duck barilla, braised goat tagine and a lively beetroot salad. All wonderful. There were also new potatoes, which were a bit bland and disappointing.We selected a brilliant Spanish red wine which complemented the food perfectly. No room...

We were a party of 3 who all agreed the food was delicious! Northcote has some well known restaurants over the hill and this gem in Westgarth village will make them sit up and take notice! We had 2 starters & 2 mains to share with 4 sides because I love vegetables!, The calamari & sardines sooooo tasty and the carrot dish had 5 very large & extremely tasty carrots, the snapper was superb. The duck is a must and the celeriac absolutely fab. I can't wait to dine here again and this time leave room for desserts. Thank you Thank you Thank you for such a sensational dinner!!!!
