Aquitaine Brasserie

Attracting discerning diners from all over the area, Aquitaine Brasserie in Brisbane's South Bank provides diners with some rustic French elegance, taking provincial fare and giving it a modern edge. Begin with some beef tartare or the duck with paté, ham, black pudding, foie gras, pickled quince and spiced bread crumb, before moving on to one of the delectable mains. We recommend sharing the whole wood-fired Bendele farm duck served with shaved cucumber, radish, lime, pickled shallots, red pepper aigre doux and sumac yoghurt, followed by some mille-feuille with orange chiboust, hazelnut praline crumb, mandarin and cocoa.

Of course, as you would expect from a quality French restaurant, the wine list has been perfectly put together with an array of French and local wines, and you’ll find a list of European-inspired cocktails too. With its stylish surrounds and views across the Brisbane skyline and river, Aquitaine Brasserie is the perfect location for a special occasion or a romantic date. You’ll find it on South Bank’s Sidon Street in the chic River Quay dining precinct – book in advance to avoid disappointment!
