Red Lantern Darlinghurst Vietnamese Restaurant & Private Dining Room ⭐

Clock is ticking on this Darlinghurst staple. Chef Luke Nguyen’s Red Lantern takes its final bow November 22, 2025—meaning your window to soak up its old-world Indochine charm is rapidly closing. Sydney's most demanding palates consistently champion the dining room for its amber-lit intimacy and hyper-attentive service. The undeniable move here? The "Feed Me" banquet—a seven-course masterclass in vibrant, herbaceous balance. Diners who secure a coveted table point straight to the legendary salted squid and wildly aromatic wagyu satay. Wok-tossed jumbo tiger prawns. Crisp turmeric and corn cakes. A flawlessly charred bò lúc lắc (shaking beef) that commands absolute respect. Cap it off with the sesame dumplings—pure textural brilliance. Book immediately, or miss out forever.
