My MiL and now husband made a small party of three, pre-booked due to the nature of the event. It was my first visit and I was pleased to find the venue suitably festive for the occasion. There were tasteful decorations and merry looking staff at every turn. Everyone got into the spirit of the occasion with a Carolling choir between our main and dessert. As a diner with multiple food allergies I had made sure to advise at the time of booking, however the staff confirmed all of this before we began as well. This was definitely reassuring. The food itself was delicious! Well presented and hearty serves of beautiful, quality ingredients. And plenty of flowing drinks. The service was excellent and we definitely enjoyed being looked after on what can be such a demanding day. I would highly recommend Christmas lunch / dinner at Gambaros and we have already discussed having a repeat experience this year.

We chose to Jellyfish for dinner based on good Yelp reviews that included excellent service. We…read morewere misinformed. We got off to a bad start. When we walked up to the greeter she asked, "what do you want." I looked around to see if she was talking to someone else. There was no one else. And then I thought maybe she confused me for someone she knew. That was not the case either. I said, "This is a restaurant, isn't it?" And then my husband tried to defuse the tension by making a joke about turtles eating jellyfish. It was all just awkward and weird, but she was just the greeter, and we sat and ordered drinks and a pre-dinner appetizer. The waiter was not a particularly happy person either, so after the app, we paid our bill and went to another restaurant for dinner. Every place can have a bad day, and when staff is fighting with each other they can take it out on everyone else, but OMG, the service we received here was awful. P.S. That appetizer was good.

It's expensive here and the food is not nearly as good as I expected. It's not necessarily bad, but…read morefor the price it's disappointing. Got the scallops as a starter and they are very small - it's mostly a giant empty plate with sauce decoration. The barramundi was okay but there is better barramundi for much less. The fries were very ordinary. The kale salad was the best thing but for how much we paid for this meal, it's not good that the salad was the highlight.

Been here a few times and it always amazes me how they handle the crowds. When they say "good for…read moregroups" that is an understatement. The place is big and on a Friday lunchtime packed. It's table service- wait staff are friendly, in uniform and efficient. You'll be seated menu in hand and them waiting for a drink order promptly. It's a seafood restaurant- so menu favours fish but plenty of other choices. Had the chicken parma for $18.50 and it was good. Put in order, short wait and our whole group got there food in few minutes. Efficient and fast. If there is one downside it is "one bill per table" - no split bills. If you're fast or prepared to sit outside the river views are excellent. Good for groups !!

Now if there is one thing I find annoying it is advertising which misleads. Lunches for 2 for 1…read moreare all over the entrance to this very Greek looking restaurant as you head up the escalators. Im confused... it looks like a fine dining place but food is 2 for 1? Hell... let's try it out anyway. Its clean it is fine dining and the waiter service is next to none. Food comes out quickly too. My lamb and snapper were overcooked though and well.. garlic bread a seafood chowder, snapper and lamb set us back 90 over dollars. My issue is mainly that no one would pay full price for this in theory... one can argue menu prices which reflect the 2 for 1 should just be the standard orices because they are that much. I am not going to be in a hurry back. This place was ok but nothing really stood out for me for that price.

We came to Kickin'Inn Woodridge for a birthday celebration, and it ended up being the most…read moreunprofessional and disappointing dining experience we've ever had. While seated, we repeatedly asked where our food was, as it took over 90 minutes to arrive, and our sides never came at all. The table next to us was also missing their sides. Despite us raising these concerns, the woman in charge never came to our table directly, instead, a waitress was sent back and forth relaying messages, which was incredibly frustrating and completely unprofessional. After we finally finished eating, staff did take away a few items from the bill, but for the long wait and the amount of food we never received, including crab, rice, and other items, it still wasn't worth what we were being charged. We tried to calmly work through the bill at the counter, pointing out what we hadn't received, but some items were still left on the bill. We went back and forth for at least five minutes just trying to get the final snow crab (which never came) removed from the bill. Instead of resolving the issue, the woman in charge told us she had been instructed over the phone by another manager to call the police, simply because we were trying to explain what was missing and make sure we were only charged for what we got. The situation was handled with zero professionalism and absolutely no attempt to de-escalate. And to make matters worse, we had brought THREE packets of birthday candles, and all of them were used on other people's cakes for other tables. While at the counter, I saw one of our candles in a cake in the back room, and when I asked about it, the staff member pulled it out of that cake and tried to hand it back to me. Completely unacceptable and unhygienic. What was supposed to be a fun birthday celebration turned into a frustrating, stressful, and embarrassing experience. Between the delays, missing food, poor communication, and the unnecessary involvement of the police over one missing item, this was by far the worst dining experience I've ever had. I absolutely would not recommend this place to anyone. They need serious training in communication, customer service, and basic hygiene.

I am not a big eater by any means, however I ordered 2 half mudcrabs and 5 half bugs. My husband ordered 2 half lobsters and 5 half bugs. The mud crabs were so small I complained. The bugs, well 1 mouthful out of each bug. The mud crabs were that small, I asked the manager if they were in fact mud crabs? because they were the size of blue swimmers. He said yes they were mud crabs, and the were very small at the moment. I contacted Dept of Fisheries on Saturday and made a formal complaint.... the minimum size of a mud crab to be caught in Queensland is 15cm across the body, I told the Dept of Fisheries that these mud crabs were not even 10cm across. The Dept of Fisheries advised they would investigate. They called me back this morning and told me that the mud crabs and bugs were imported from Fiji, and they don't have a minimum size requirement. so they can get away with it. Dept of Fisheries told me we were served blue swimmers - not mud crabs...although some of the claws were mud crab claws The manager gave us a $70 discount, and we paid $101. I would not have even paid $100 for what we were served. I am not a big eater by any means, and we left the restaurant still hungry. MY SUGESTION ...... if you do decide to go there, ask if they serve Queensland mud crabs and bugs, or are they imported. So incredibly disappointed.... Yvonne Kirby

Located in the Central Station. Easy access by train or bus. Price: dinner $69-$79, breakfast $59, not sure about lunch. The price doesn't include drinks. But the drink prices are normal and affordable. Food: huge variety!!! Believe me! My partner and I have tried other buffet package in other restaurants and hotels around Brisbane and Gold Coast. This has been our most favourite. The price worth what you get! I've posted many pictures of the restaurants and some of the food. Check them out! Huge variety in starters, main food, SEAFOOD, and desserts. I cannot mention each of the food because it's too many. Hehe Service: the best! The waitress was very friendly with nice genuine smile. She kept our table always clean every time and kept on refilling water without us asking for more. She always serve things for me first and then my partner. That is the correct manner of serving meal/drinks in restaurants, which is ladies first. My partner booked a table for this dinner and requested a special seating because it's for our anniversary dinner. And when we arrived, we were placed in perfect spot in the corner, with great view, and feeling more private. It was the first great impression of the night. They did not forget our request. At the end of the night when we were enjoying our desserts, a waitress came with a complementary sweets plate from the chef, with candle and plate was written 'happy anniversary'. That was really nice. (Check out the picture). This kind of amazing service will the one make us to keep coming back to this place. I'll update this review or write another review if I try their breakfast buffet next time. Hopefully it's as good as the dinner :)
