If you are looking for a lovely long meal which leaves you pleasantly sated, then this is the Degustation restaurant for you. Although each helping is small, you take time to eat it and enjoy it. By the end of all the courses you have had enough. The wines are matched beautifully with the foods. (I will be looking to buy more of a couple of them.) What really finishes the experience is the staff. They are confident, knowledgeable and happy to chat with you. It was surprising to hear that they had not had international training. We will return soon.

The Restaurant was very beautiful - like an elegant English private club. The food was superb, however the delivery of it from the time we placed an order was long and we did notice other patrons that had come much later received their meal before us. Unfortunately the inconsistancy of delivery of our drink order once placed also occurred : - only one of us received a drink and after some considerable time the other two beverages arrived. Of course in fareness it is getting busy this time of year - but service is service when it is all said and done. It was a friends birthday and I would go back in a minute due to the food and ambience but the continuity of service was not good enough for a special dining experience. I will say all staff were very pleasant and courteous.

Pleasantly surprised by the menu of the 5 course vegetarian lunch I very much enjoyed the flavours and thought behind each course. Each mouthful was a journey for the tastebuds who demanded less talk, more savouring, rendering this anniversary luncheon the most quiet in our many years together. Whilst my husband enjoyed his 5 non vegetarian courses, he felt the first course was meagre and simplistic and he longed for greater portions. We both enjoyed the wine menu, very good service and the ambience of the restaurant and look forward to returning to see the delights of next seasons’ menu. To hold us over until then, what type of balsamic vinegar do you use, Deer and Duck? It was amazing, highlighting your beautiful bread to a ‘T’. Thank you for a memorable anniversary.

Great food and wines and very knowledgeable waitress. Particularly loved the Chardonnay. She even rang me afterwards to let me know I’d left my umbrella behind.

First time to dine. I ordered the gnocchi for main and the deconstructed poppy seed cheesecake for dessert. Both meals were delicious but, given the price tag and the fact we were not partaking in the full degustation menu, we expected main size portions, not entrée sizes and unfortunately left still hungry after a two course meal. The drinks we ordered at the very start of the night didn't arrive until after we had finished our mains and my friend's drink order was incorrect. An apology for the delay was offered and the correct drink was made (naturally incurring further delay).

It was our 12th wedding anniversary, we usually go out for a degustation and this one did not disappoint. Each dish was absolutely delicious and very pleasing to the eye. Our only comment is not a criticism but just an oddity... each time our waiter addressed us, with each dish (9 of them), he greeted us by saying Ladies and Gentlemen!!! It was just the two of us and we found it hilarious but strange. Amazing food!!!

Food was amazing. Atmosphere great, though decor lost in the dim lighting. Price appropriate for the attention to detail. Waitstaff were good with excellent knowledge of the food, however there was one staff member whose presentation was at odds with the intimacy of the situation & environment. We would be happy to return & would definitely recommend.

We dined here for my mother's birthday and it was one of the best dining experiences I have ever had. The food and service was impeccable. We did the 5 course degustation menu and whilst initially thinking this may not fill us up we were (delightfully) proven very wrong. An added touch, after stating when we arrived that we were celebrating my mother's birthday, at the end of the meal the young waitress brought out an additional little ice-cream dessert for my mum with a candle and Happy Birthday written in chocolate on the plate. A total surprise and a wonderful, thoughtful touch. Thank you Deer Duck Bistro for a truly wonderful evening we won't be forgetting any time soon.

The 7 course degustation was lovely, everything tasted fantastic. The only downside was the amount time in between courses towards dish 5 onwards. We arrived at 7.40pm and left at 11.45pm. Just a bit too long.

The food was amazing. My complaint was that ordering from the ala carte menu ceased at 6:30pm on Friday and Saturday evenings and patrons were forced to choose from the set tasting menu, which ranges from $85 to $129 without wine. Our booking was at 7pm and we the waitress awkwardly notified us. It would be great to be informed of this at the time of booking. We would have preferred to eat one chosen meal, not numerous small plates that left some of the group still hungry.

Deer Duck takes you on a journey, from the decor and the ambience, to the wine and fine dining, with each dish carefully designed to compliment the next. The long course is a truely exquisite experience. I highly recommend Deer Duck.

One of the greatest restaurants I have ever been to, definitely the best in Brisbane by far. The atmosphere is unique, the food is tremendously good and artfully presented. We had the 5 course degastation. The duck, venison, tart, pasta, and dessert were spectacular. Staff were also really good at their jobs, very impressive.
