The bests restaurants in Newtown are the ones that say open longer than 6 months. There are a lot of restaurants that pop up with the best of intentions but dont exist long enough for people to discover if they are good or not. Being a nearby resident, King Street is best on a weekday between 10am-5pm in my opinion.

Git down to Marrickville. Not far from Newtown and without the weekend invasion. Love Dha Ville!
