A beautiful seaside restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere and delicious seafood. The wagyu beef is juicy and cooked to perfection. It's the perfect place for a leisurely meal by the bay.
🍃Environment: Super beautiful, even the cloudy sky can't block the fresh and clean temperament here, there are resident singers outside, it's very comfortable to blow the sea breeze; the white and wooden atmosphere inside is too good 💁Service: Indoor window seats must be booked in advance The lady is wearing a white casual outfit, which makes people feel comfortable, and her blonde hair tied with a pink ribbon adds a touch of bright color 🦪Oysters 70AUD a dozen Fresh oysters, small in size, with the taste of sea water, more creamy taste 🌟Grilled scallops with rich cheese and soy sauce grilled scallops are salty and fresh. After giving feedback to the handsome boss, there will be improvements immediately 🥩Sirloin steak is just medium rare with three sauces If you want to pair it with fries, order Side 🥩Bone-in steak 1KG Large, but medium rare feels a little overcooked, it's not bad with BBQ sauce 📷After the meal, you can go to the yacht pier to take pictures, a very bourgeois place

Bibmimbab Beef Food is good. Authentic Korean. Place is usually crowded with younger crowd. Bibmimbab beef is good but the Soondobu seafood wasn''t that nice. Price is reasonable.

Felons Brewing Co. is a very special place! The atmosphere is very relaxed with beautiful river views and a great vibe.
The first time I came to Brisbane, I was attracted by the city's leisurely feeling and romantic coastline. Found the most romantic chair in Brisbane by the pier on the South Bank~ Saw Queensland's most beloved dolphins in the evening on Moreton Island~ Met a group of partners called heroes at the top of the Story Bridge~ Enjoyed the leisurely night of this city on the City Cat on the Brisbane River. But the charm of Brisbane is more than that~ · If there is a place that you must go to in Brisbane, Moreton Island! It must be Moreton Island!! If you have a day, you can take a day tour of Moreton Island. There are many related products that can be booked online, but I really recommend that you stay for two nights. · Let me share my experience on the island: 1️⃣Snorkeling or scuba diving (Moreton Island Resort has its own water center, you can book snorkeling or scuba diving directly, wet suits are provided, no need to worry about cold water) I saw a super big turtle while snorkeling, I was really lucky 2️⃣The water center can rent kayaks or paddle boards, which is very suitable for friends or families 3️⃣You can feed dolphins every night, you need to make an appointment in advance 4️⃣Moreton Island is a sand island, you can play sandboarding 5️⃣There are so many small animals on the island, pelicans, kookaburras, all kinds of parrots~~It feels so good to be woken up by birdsong every day! · · In addition to Moreton Island, Brisbane itself is also very romantic: 1️⃣The brave can experience climbing the Story Bridge, it is safe, there will be a special coach to take you to the bridge, and you will be very proud when you climb to the top and overlook the whole Brisbane. Unfortunately, it rained when I was on the bridge, which made me feel a little depressed. Everyone should check the weather forecast before climbing the bridge. 2️⃣ At night, you must experience the public transportation City Cat of the Brisbane River. Sightseeing along the Brisbane River, blowing the wind, watching the Story Bridge passing overhead, romantic +1 3️⃣ South Bank is full of life and cultural atmosphere. If you have time, you may want to go to South Bank Park and visit the exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art 4️⃣ Go to Felons Brewing Co restaurant and order a special lunch, you may be surprised; or have an authentic fish & chips, watching the ships passing through the Story Bridge, and enjoying Australian delicacies is a unique happiness · Compared to the bustling Sydney, the leisurely feeling of Brisbane is a place I particularly like, and the pace is much slower. Seeing many young people eating picnics and chatting by the pier, this is probably the fireworks of the southern hemisphere~~ Brisbane Queensland

The rooftop restaurant boasts stunning panoramic views overlooking the cricket field, making it the perfect place for a date or casual get-together. We made reservations in advance and were seated promptly upon arrival. The service was also excellent—the staff were friendly and attentive throughout the evening.

The quality was close to perfect, but lacked local character. But the Felton Road wines paired with the restaurant's food made it still a wonderful evening and a delicious dinner. Grow up healthy and happy
Otto Ristorante Brisbane is located at 480 Queen St, Brisbane, Queensland 4000, Australia. This meal couldn't have been better. We may have only had one dish but it was enough to make us feel full. The food melted in our mouths. However, I'm sure others could have had two or more courses. The menu has a wide range of choices. The service was outstanding, the food was delicious, the atmosphere was great and the view of the Story Bridge was lovely. I recommend you to sit by the window to see the view of the Story Bridge, especially if it's a romantic evening and it's even better for couples.

Patina at Customs House is located at 399 Queen St, Brisbane, Queensland 4000, Australia. It is in a great location, along the river bank, in a beautiful building, the Customs House. I'm not sure I would go there at night, the view and environment make it more suitable for daytime dining than sitting in an old house at night. Other than that, the great value lunch was delicious; the squid and barramundi at $40 were first class quality and value.
It's a relatively simple restaurant with a limited variety of dishes, and the taste is just so-so, so I don't particularly recommend it. After looking at the menu, I really didn't know what to eat, so I just ordered a few side dishes.
