Twenty Seats

Scoring a reservation at Highgate’s Twenty Seats is a serious flex—and entirely worth the hustle. Perth’s culinary elite are quietly booking out this moody, minimalist dining room for what is arguably the city's most meticulously paced 10-course degustation. The vibe? Intimate, warm, and distinctly Parisian. Think less stiff fine dining, more effortless *savoir-faire*. Every plate is breathtakingly *soigné*—a high-wire act of texture and flavor that commands your attention without shouting. Those lucky enough to secure a chair point to Remi and the front-of-house team, who orchestrate the evening with an invisible, psychic precision. Wine pairings are sharp and deliberate, with one stellar pour brilliantly chosen to bridge two distinct courses. It’s an absolute masterclass in hospitality where you feel like an honored guest rather than a customer. Book the table. Take someone whose palate you respect.
