Sydney 

Three Blue Ducks
From breakfast through to dinner, you’re sorted if you order from Sydney institution Three Blue Ducks. Wake up to a breakfast poke bowl with avocado, kimchi, seaweed, cucumber, soy, mirin and a soft egg, or if you’re lining up for the main event later in the day it’s hard to go past the wood-roasted whole rainbow trout served with kipfler potatoes, smashed peas and prawn oil.

Saké Restaurant & Bar
Sushi rolls, sashimi, nigiri, agedashi tofu and scampi tempura? Yes please. From cold starters and unbelievably fresh fish from the sushi bar to a chicken karaage, Saké Restaurant & Bar now delivers the best of its carefully curated menu anywhere in Sydney. There’s not much else left to say except, itadakimasu.

 Melbourne 

Mister Minh
Legendary restaurant Binh Minh was in the heart of Melbourne’s Vietnamese district for 17 years. When owner Minh Chu sold the restaurant, he launched Mister Minh – a “virtual restaurant” which offers delivery-only meals. Gather a crowd and order in because the number of dishes to choose from is astounding – pho, rice paper rolls, dumplings, noodle soups, laksa, salads and wings.

Entrecote
For cheeseburgers, steak sandwiches and fries with a delicious French twist, Entrecote is the place for you. Make the call, grab some linen napkins, some fine French wine and put on some Edith Piaf. You’ll be transported to Paris in no time, all without stepping outside.

Gazi
If you’re having a party and don’t want to open yet another sad tub of dip and a packet of crackers, order in from George Calombaris’ sassy Greek restaurant Gazi. Choose from “Hellenic dirty food” (think sliders with saganaki and beetroot or prawn katafi) and zesty dips and fresh pita bread. Add some salads (the chargrilled broccoli is a crowd favourite) and protein from the grill and you’re all set.

 Adelaide

Nutrition Republic
Gluten, dairy and refined sugar are excluded at Nutrition Republic but what remains is tasty, nutritious and brilliant food. The earth bowls are packed full of every superfood you’ve heard of (and some you haven’t), the salad bowls come with pickled and fermented vegetables and the raw bars and slices are a healthy riff on old favourites like lemon slice.

Amalfi
The menu at Amalfi is so good that it’s barely changed in 35 years. From simple favourites like the margherita with fior di latte mozzarella, fresh basil and Italian olive oil to Nonna’s spaghetti and meatballs (house-made veal, beef and pork meatballs with fresh pasta), this is wonderful, authentic Italian cooking. And on the rare occasion you can’t decide what to have from the menu, you can always build your own pizza or calzone.

Raj on Taj
Sometimes only Indian food will do. For those times, order in from Raj on Taj. In an instant you’ll be transported to the Indian subcontinent. The butter chicken is smoked and marinated, lending an uncommon level of depth to the popular dish. The malai kofta dumplings (cottage cheese in an almond and butter sauce) are enough to turn even the staunchest meat eater vegetarian. Well, for one night at least.

Brisbane

Toro Bravo 
The best thing about ordering in from Toro Bravo is that you get to try so many delicious dishes at once. From the bacon-wrapped dates with honey to the chargrilled chorizo with chimichurri to the flaky brik pastry cigars filled with chicken, harissa and herbs, it’s tempting just to order tapas. But trust us, you’ll want to order a pulled pork slider (slow-cooked in Estrella lager) and some side dishes – this is bold and flavoursome Spanish food at its very best.

Leela Thai
Once you try the piquant Thai flavours from Leela Thai, you’ll start wondering whether you can order in every night. The papaya salad is packed with crunchy, thin slices of the fruit and comes with a knockout sauce. And while you can choose the level of spice in the crispy pork belly stir-fry, we reckon you should be brave and go for the intensity that’s going to make your mouth tingle.

Comuna Cantina
By ordering in, you may not get the dancing that so often accompanies meals at Comuna Cantina, but you’ll definitely find your groove. Visually striking and oh-so-delicious are the arepas (taco burgers), or keep it classic with the street tacos.

Perth

El Publico
Salty, porky and moreish, the chicharron (pork crackle with chile ancho and vinegar) from El Publico is the ultimate step up from ubiquitous pink prawn crackers or bland pappadums. The beef brisket balls with housemade chipotle and almonds are super, and if you’re feeling particularly game, order the crickets and chile ancho, which are deep fried and coated in ancho chile salt.

Old Faithful
Sometimes nothing but American barbecue will do. For those moments, order in fried lamb ribs and chimichurri, beef brisket sandwiches with barbecue sauce and coleslaw, fried potatoes and blue cheese sauce, and corn bread. The meat is sticky, smoky and so reminiscent of the best kind of cooking in the southern states of the USA.

Ria Malay Kitchen
Even if you’re not cooking at home, you can still have home-style food from Ria Malay Kitchen. With a delicious fusion of Malaysian, Indian and Chinese cuisine, Ria Malay is known for its curries – we suggest the lamb kari with potatoes as well as the Nyonya chicken curry, which has the robust flavours of coriander, turmeric, cinnamon and chilli cut with creamy coconut milk.
