As of October 2026, the 3 highest-ranked restaurants in Orange, NSW on the Starworks directory are The Hub Gourmet Pizza Bar Orange (4.9 stars from 728 Google reviews), Maithil Rasoi (4.8 stars from 628 Google reviews) and Leaf Cafe & Co Orange (4.8 stars from 190 Google reviews). Every figure here is computed from Google review data that Starworks collects for restaurants in Orange, NSW, recalculated when this page rebuilds. Placement on this list cannot be bought.

How many restaurants does Starworks rank in Orange?

Starworks ranks 70 restaurants in Orange, NSW, holding 13,822 Google reviews between them. Across the 70 the median rating is 4.4 stars from a median of 153 reviews. Of the 70, 30 are rated 4.5 or better and 42 have passed 100 reviews. The most-reviewed carries 1,066 reviews, more than the top-ranked restaurant holds, which is why rating alone does not set the order.

What star rating should I expect from a good restaurant in Orange?

The median Google rating across the 70 restaurants Starworks ranks in Orange, NSW is 4.4 stars, and 30 of them sit at 4.5 or above. A rating at or near that median is ordinary for restaurants in Orange, NSW rather than a warning sign on its own, and a rating well above it only means much when enough reviews stand behind it.

How many Google reviews does an established restaurant in Orange have?

The median restaurant Starworks ranks in Orange, NSW carries 153 Google reviews, and 42 of the 70 restaurants have passed 100. The most-reviewed of them carries 1,066.

How does Starworks rank restaurants in Orange?

Starworks gives every restaurant in Orange, NSW a reputation score out of 100 from three things: its Google star rating (up to 47 points), how many reviews back that rating (up to 35), and whether customers can reach it by website and phone number (up to 18). Review volume is the one part that can subtract: below 15 reviews it costs points, because a near-empty review record gives a stranger very little to go on. No score falls below 0 and placement cannot be bought. The score measures the strength of a business's public review record rather than the quality of its work, so it is worth reading the reviews as well, and every listing links to them on Google.

Why does a restaurant in Orange with all 5-star reviews score lower than one with a lower rating?

Because review volume counts as well as rating, and below 15 reviews it counts against you. Five perfect reviews are encouraging but thin evidence; three hundred reviews averaging 4.7 tell a stranger far more about what to expect on the day. That is a judgement about how much proof exists, not about the quality of the work, and a newer restaurant with a handful of excellent reviews may still be the right choice in Orange, NSW. The star rating and review count sit next to every score so you can weigh both yourself.

Why does the same restaurant not appear several times on this list?

Some businesses run more than one Google listing, often one per suburb they service. Those are the same company, so Starworks groups them and shows the business once, using the listing with the strongest review record. That is why this page opens with 50 distinct restaurants in Orange, NSW rather than a longer list of repeats.

How often is this list of restaurants in Orange updated?

This ranking of restaurants in Orange, NSW rebuilds on a 30-day cycle and prints the date of its last rebuild above the list, which for the current version is October 2026. Ratings and review counts are re-read from Google over time rather than on a fixed schedule, so an individual figure here can be older than the rebuild date.

How can I improve my restaurant business ranking in Orange?

Collect genuine customer reviews consistently, and keep a working website and phone number on your Google listing, because those are the three inputs the score reads. There is no placement to buy on this page. For scale: the median restaurant Starworks ranks in Orange, NSW carries 153 Google reviews at 4.4 stars.
