Casual French-inspired dining with affordable wines are what’s on the cards at Scarlett Cafe & Wine Bar, a chic space tucked into Residence G on leafy Austin Avenue.

There’s nothing pretentious about this place: just hearty signatures like beef tartare, duck leg confit, beef prime rib and foie gras creme brulee. Plus, there’s a sizable selection of French wines to wash it all down with. Ideal for after-work get-togethers or laid back brunch dates on weekends.

Shortlist: Francis, Fini’s (Soho), Pici (Central), Divino Patio
