Daph's Restaurant in Leederville offers a unique dining experience focused on open fire cooking, giving patrons a chance to watch the culinary process as it unfolds. This intimate venue houses just 20 seats, fostering a cozy environment that suits small gatherings. Chef-prepared tasting menus showcase the flavors derived from Jarrah wood-fueled flames and emphasize the use of quality, local produce from Western Australia. Daph's does not adhere strictly to a single culinary tradition but instead adapts its menus to highlight the best regional ingredients available.
The restaurant offers a set tasting menu that changes monthly and is served on share plates, which encourages exploration and communal dining. Guests are invited to experience Daph's seasonal three-course Sunday roast during the winter months, providing a warm and hearty meal. The restaurant accommodates various dietary restrictions, although it is noted that vegan, lactose, dairy-free, and FODMAP specific diets are not fully supported due to the small kitchen size.
Located in the vibrant Leederville district, Daph's operates from Tuesday to Saturday and offers two dinner sittings each night. A midweek menu is available from Tuesday to Thursday for those seeking a more flexible dining option. Reservations are recommended due to the restaurant's limited seating, ensuring guests have a spot to enjoy this distinctive culinary adventure. A fully stocked bar complements the meal offerings with a curated list of cocktails to enhance the dining experience.
