e'cco bistro

scallops were delicious!. as with most restaurants, entrees are the best!!
they screwed up our order so ended up getting extra food which was pretty good.
the mains were pretty decent too. some interesting mixes of ingredients :)
dessert wasnt amazing - had choc fudge thing - way too sweet...

i came here all on my lonesome but was eager to try the salmon main.  it was absolutely delicious. the rich sweet corn risotto was amazing. it's not quite a risotto but more like a generous sauce of corn, spinach, hollandaise type sauce.  the salmon was fresh, crunchy and delicious. it's a slightly posh place so expect to pay a little more $.  i'd definitely come back given the opportunity. ecco bistro is highly recommended by most of my friends. seared salmon, risotto of sweet corn, green onion, spinach and tomato vinaigrette.

e’cco bistro has come along way since 1995. recently, e’cco celebrated their 18th birthday. owner/chef philip johnson has brought simple, unpretentious fare to the outskirts of brisbane city for 18 years. the menu is simple and featured food that looks not out of place with many of today’s modern menus. many things which are commonplace these days would’ve been exotic and unknown back in the mid-90s. the venue still maintains many of the same decor from 18 years ago. a true testament that philip’s ideas and thinking was way ahead of his time. an assortment of round tables and long tables make e’cco well accommodating for a date for two up to large groups. there’s the e’cco bar is also available for private functions. i was lucky enough to sample many favourites from the original e’cco menu. we were treated to fresh bread and butter before our entrees came. a simple touch that is always nice. my love for butter is like no other. we each picked a different entrée and in true food-lover s

just ok.. was hoping for amazing, but really, was just ok.

my favorites of the evening goes to the gnocchi with gorgonzola for the starter, the soft polenta from the beef dish (best polenta ever!), roast lamb rump, the red cabbage from the duck and panettone pudding.

it’s the open-book foundations that ecco stands upon & the genuine relationships formed that make it one of brisbane’s most prominent restaurants today

in a world that’s constantly changing it’s unusual to find a restaurant that not only has lasted 18 years but also has hardly changed its décor in that time. philip johnson’s e’cco ticks both those boxes and quite a few more. lauded for its innovative décor when launched 18 years ago, and with only the addition of a bar area, the restaurant continues to stand side-by-side with brisbane’s best, both in décor and food. located on the city fringe of brisbane's cbd district, the bistro brought new life to a historic tea warehouse in a once unfashionable district near the story bridge end of the city. while others might be looking a little tired, e’cco just looks familiar and welcoming, with food that continues to surprise and please and highly trained, professional wait staff. since its opening, e’cco has won many accolades including australian gourmet traveller restaurant of the year in 2007, for its unpretentious food that focuses on simplicity, flavour and presentation. here's a blast f

dissapointing service & food was ok - not great. after writing to them to give them feedback they didn't even bother to respond. used to be a stand out however will not be returning after such appalling customer service.

it's ok, nothing outstanding. with the scores of great restaurants now opening up its nothing to write home about.

great night out. exceptional service, amazing food - just a wonderful experience.

never once been disappointed. iconic restaurant in brisbane.

entree was nice, mains were below average. lamb was too well done and dry. steak was of average quality- nothing special, not even tender.
customer service was unbelievably appalling.. completely forgotton about us because we sat in the corner of the room. had to walk up and request a waiter to take our dessert orders.

loved it! can't wait to return.. amazing food, fabulous atmosphere - stuff for vegetarians to eat to! one of my favourites (unless the wine was confusing me).

echo other positive sentiments. an absolute favourite of mine. love food, staff, location - it just works. have had many memorable nights here over the last 15 years. brisbane is lucky to have philllip johnson
