Great specials - including the $5 schooies. Big fan of CHEAP piss!!! Ha ha Keen to come back again, meat was a bit over cooked. If my steak was any more black bloody adani would be interested. read more

Ribs and Rumps - Me drinking a few bevs and the names bev! - Steakhouses Near Me - Fortitude Valley, QLD

To be perfectly honest, its hard to get seating, even when you can see space the staff tell you to wait as they only serve a certain amount of people at a time. Not only that but you can wave goodbye to being able to get a second drink, once your meals out the staff seem to run for the hills until its time to take your money. I ordered the pork ribs and while they look pretty delicious and dont taste too bad, there really isnt much meat on them. But what really made this unenjoyable was the bad service. Hopefully the management team can sort that out. read more

Ribs and Rumps - Pork ribs - Steakhouses Near Me - Fortitude Valley, QLD

Being a self confessed "foodie" with perhaps a touch of arrogant hipster flavour preferences, I never thought in a million years I would end up at place called "Ribs and Rumps" - let alone enjoy the experience. The place was packed and the staff remained helpful and friendly, which is at great attribute to have... We were seated after having a beer in the outdoor bar seating area and then we got the menu. There was no mucking around. My dining partners had come for the ribs and it was an all in experience. Meaning, we came for the ribs but we were staying for the bibs! Yep, just like all those American hike diners in movies you see. We got a side of bibs with our half a rack of cow, lamb and pig each. I must say, what an experience. It just releases something primal inside and you just end up going for it as the portions are freaking huge!!... Omg, the lamb was so soft and succulent, it just falls off the bone. You might go kicking and screaming into this multistory kingdom of carnivores, but the morning meat sweats will be totally worth it. read more

Ribs and Rumps - The motherload of meat has arrived - Steakhouses Near Me - Fortitude Valley, QLD

This famous steak house opened its doors in the exclusive HQ complex on Wickham Street last week and my friends and I were amongst their first customers. What a disappointment! Firstly, we had booked a private room for seven people. We had been seated about ten minutes when the waitress asked if we would mind moving to another table as they had just received a big group. Fair enough, the private room was big enough to hold twenty people so we were wasting the space. The waitress promised us a free round of drinks for our inconvenience - and twenty minutes later it hadn't arrived. We sent down a scout to locate a waiter who then assured us he was bringing the drinks. 20 minutes later, they still hadn't arrived. We sent a second scout down - mission unsuccessful. We gave up on the drinks and just prayed for our food to arrive. It was a busy evening but the food took about an hour from the time we placed the order. What was worse, the waiter had no idea which steaks were rare, medium or well done and got the accompanying sauces mixed up as well. Even though the steaks were good though lacking in fries, we were so cranky and hungry by this time, we didn't enjoy our meals. Finally just as we decided to call an end to a disastrous night, the free drinks arrived! To make amends, the manager also gave us a discount on our bill. I have since found out Ribs and Rump is actually an international chain and this was the flagship restaurant for Brisbane. I was surprised to hear this as chain restaurants while lacking in originality are usually consistently organised. I suppose Ribs and Rump Brisbane could just be ironing out a few bumps but I won't be hurrying back here anytime soon. read more

See all

You know that feeling when you don't really know what you want, then you see a place that just triggers something inside, and you realise that's what you wanted all along? That's how we stumbled on Ribs and Rumps. It seemed like everything we never knew we wanted! Such a shame, with diners like us, it should have been a lock. I'll start on a high, but unfortunately it's the only one. The staff here were fantastic. Super friendly, really helpful. Just great. But the staff and service should not be the stand alone highlight when you go to a restaurant. First up, the cocktails. I know this isn't a cocktail bar, and you can't expect anything too flash. But when you're putting something up as a 'signature cocktail' you expect something passable at the least. Sweet, boozy, but lacking anything approaching a flavour. Next up, the entree. Buffalo wings are not difficult. There are so many places in Brisbane that get them right. Ribs and rumps is not one of them. Wings weren't crispy, buffalo sauce was bland, and the whole thing was an oily mess. I ordered a chicken parmigiana, which was not half bad. Tasted kind of like Pizza Shapes (if you were ever curious, Sumac is the spice that makes you want to dip your finger in the leftover crumbs in the corner of a bag of Pizza Shapes). Big, tasty, cheezy, can't really complain. But I've had better for half the price. My wife ordered ribs, and here was the biggest disappointment. It's the first word of the name of your restaurant. If you're not getting this right, there's no reason for you to be in business. Flavourless, dry, chewy and entirely reliant on the overly sweet sauce. If there had been a dog under the table, it would have been well fed. In a city which has a number of really REALLY good rib joints at a much more reasonable cost, there's no reason to recommend Ribs and Rumps. read more

The meals we had at Ribs and Rumps were pretty damn tasty, but it's also quite pricey. Sauces are extra for your steak, and the meals don't come with any salads, so you're paying just for your meat and potato. My husband got the combo with steak, lamb ribs and beef ribs and the ribs were absolutely delicious. Big meaty ribs, and the meat just fell off the bone. I haven't found many places that offer beef and lamb ribs, usually it's just pork, so thumbs up for that! The place was very busy on a Saturday night and very loud. Everyone was wearing big paper bibs around their necks, even when they were going outside for a smoke. Pretty funny looking, seeing groups of guys outside with bibs around their neck. Being that it was a Saturday night and in the Valley, everyone seemed quite dressed up for a steak house. read more

My girlfriend too me here for valentines day 2014, probably the worst ribs I've ever had especially considering the price. Over cooked and dry. Average taste overall and stingy on the sauce! My girlfriend got the rump steak which was also over cooked and lacking in flavour. Service and setting was nice enough but that's not what we were there for! Would not recommend them for ribs or for rumps. read more

This is a fairly nice place to go if you feel like a good steak or ribs meal. I have been here around about 7 times over the past 3 years. Each time I have gone I have experienced a range of good and bad service and good and bad meal quality. For instance, my girlfriend ordered the 180g steak ordered medium well. It came out very much well done. The meals are now very over priced and what I can only assume to be new management, the menu has changed and prices have gone up. read more

Ribs! Rumps! What more could a couple blokes want before a night out? Well, we only had rumps, but the ribs looked good. What can I say? It's a nice looking place, the staff were friendly (and it was quiet on a Sunday night), and we enjoyed our meals, which were a nice size. Was it the best steak we've had? Nah. Will we be back? Probably, we want to do both the ribs and rumps sometime. It's not amazing, but it's worth another try. read more

It was a really great atmosphere however it was a little cold so bring a sweater this time of year as they leave the doors open. Beautiful decor the service was great the food was good but not good to where I would recommend. I purchased a red balloon voucher for 2 which included a 3 course share: (this also came with a bottle of wine.) 1st course - bruschetta 2nd course beef, lamb and pork with 2 sides (seasoned chips are great) and 3rd course: cheesecake. You also get two steak knives a part of the red balloon experience however they did not honour this in my experience. read more

The place to eat Ribs. Josh made an ordinary night into a great night. It's often hard to find somewhere to eat where the food and service are both good. Josh delivered both tonight. The Premium Pork Ribs are the #1 item to eat from the menu. read more

This restaurant is a disgrace. Go to Jujubar instead. It's right next door. It has delicious Asian cuisine at very competitive prices.

Rude service. What else is there to say? Ruined any chance of enjoying the meal before we even got the food.

We went here for my husband's birthday and it was such a great start to the night. I booked a table (which is a must!) and we sat down very quickly and ordered. Although the food took a while we drank and chatted before our food came out. Was great Ribs ever, even though it's a bit costly it's worth it. Waiters were very accommodating and lovely. Even bought the cake out and sang happy birthday. Just a great atmosphere . Will always go back! read more

I've had some family check this place out a while ago and they raved about it! So I gathered the family and headed in on Saturday night. I booked at last minute but no dramas with that and we got a table at 5.30pm. My partner and dad arrived prior to us ladies (typical) and while waiting ordered a beer and 6wings to share. They said the food was fantastic! Except only 5wings came out; when they finally flagged someone down they got told it goes on weight.....why put 6wings on a menu then? Say a half serve or something. Overall the food was really good, tasty, huge servings, and really flavoursome. The only issue was the service. They had heaps of staff- but they didn't seem to be doing much. No one came to offer extra drinks, we had to wait and wait and wait until we flagged someone down. That happened most of the night. Then after they gave us the bill they left and we never saw anyone again. We have no dramas walking to the counter to pay; but communicate that to the customers. I can understand that it was Saturday night and they were busy (the place was packed) but still....it's Saturday night! If you can't get your act together on one of the busiest nights then when will you...? We would have ordered more drinks and food if we were asked but we weren't.... read more

This is my 2nd fav branch! The setting of the place is beautiful and they have the BORE SAUSAGES! Love the fact that they use real potatoes for the mash and the serving size is worth the money. Only rated the gold coast branch number 1 because of the view. Service is good and they have the best chips! read more

Some of the staff are nice but most will ignore you and the food takes a really long time to come out even if they're quiet.

Had the rump a few times now. I order it blue and it's perfect every time. The chips are crispy and did I say the steak is blue. Drinks are reasonably priced and the atmosphere is chill. read more

After going to the Olympic Park Sydney franchise, i was stoked to see one of these opening up in Brisbane!! But i have to say, its been mixed experiences, The first time was just a shamozle, at the time I was a smoker so popped outside for an "after entree" treat, came back, table was completely cleared, and i mean COMPLETELY, even my beer which was no where near finished was taken, on the upside the manager hooked us up with a free meal for our next visit for the trouble. Otherwise every experience has been great, the trio of RIBS RIBS RIBS is a nice way to get a taste of every animal available, Cow, Pig and Lamb, Although i highly recommend the lamb for pull apart tasty rib goodness (i like to think of myself as a bit of a rib review queen), i found the beef a bit tough for my taste but the mister loved them! Perfect for birthdays, celebrations, or just when you need a rib fix. The prices arent super expensive, but deffo not cheap. the car park outside fills up quick, but there is also undercover parking available. read more

A great place to gather with friend or celebrate a birthday with a HUGE piece of meat!

Shockingly slow and inattentive service, average and overpriced food. Would not return. Spend your money elsewhere.

I was looking forward for dinner here for my fiancés birthday, I ordered the lamb ribs and steak combo and my fiancé ordered the 250g eye fillet, both came with the choice of fries or potatoes. The lamb ribs were great the steak was terrible and I asked for mash and I got dry den as mash. The fiancé said her eye fillet was really nice but to be quite honest you can get it anywhere just as good. In the end it come to the bill and after the 2 meals, a glass of wine and 2 beers it came to $85.00 after the $30.00 off coupon for the birthday.. All in all very average and very overpriced, only good thing in my opinion was the ribs and the staff read more

Amazing amazing amazing, Steaks are cooked to a high standard, being perfectly moist but not drowning in oil, chips are fresh, crisp and piping hot. The staff were very attentive and extremely quick, I had a glass that I had just finished and they asked if I wanted another within 1 minute. They were joking around with us and had a smile on at all times. Will be returning here, read more

Wouldn't go as far as to say 'Brisbane's Best Ribs.' The pay / line up area leaves you waiting for ages, and whenever I've been they appear understaffed. It's on the expensive side, the desserts aren't all that appealing and while they always cook they steaks fantastically, the steak isn't as good as stuff I can buy from the supermarket. I don't normally write negative comments, but after today's visit I have to say the service was horrible. Won't be back anytime soon... read more
