la vue waterfront restaurant

my boyfriend and i were excited to try this restaurant tonight, and called at about 5pm to make an inquiry. the calls did not go through when we called twice, and by the time we arrived it was around 8pm and the restaurant was closed although it says here that they are open until 11pm. we are very disappointed with ourexperiencetonight.

we visit for sunday dinner with thefork’s 40% deal. on arrival, we are greeted by waitresses at the entrance. owner ronaldo welcomes us and ensures we are comfortably seated. we sip on cocktails admiring the view of the waterfront as we wait for our meal.

* pork belly ($28) is served with poached pear and sauerkraut. the pork belly is perfectly roasted, tender and juicy. we love this dish and i will have this as my main meal next visit.

* beef eye fillet ($45) is served with glazed onions, pomme puree and a bordelaise sauce. the eye fillet grilled “medium” is nicely seared and tender, a high quality steak complemented nicely with pomme puree and poached greens. this french bordelaise sauce is fantastic!

* tiger prawns thermidor ($45) looks spectacular and is served with a dressed salad and gratin dauphinoise (baked potato). these tiger prawns are very fresh and are complemented nicely with a tasty seafood sauce garnished with avocado cubes. excellent!

* mango and passionfruit bavarois ($15) and affogato & peach schnapps ($15). a beautiful refreshing dessert and an intense full flavoured liqueur coffee to complete our meal.

a lovely fine diningexperiencewith delicious food, friendly fast service and serene riverfront views. a perfect evening out on the town. thank you la vue waterfront!

thanks to la vue, our wedding reception's food, service and ambiance was amazing. my partner and i choose to have our wedding reception at la vue for the stunning location on the brisbane river, excellent food and the relaxed and charming intimate restaurant atmosphere. la vue accommodated 50 or so of our friends and family and made our wedding day a truly amazing experience. kenny (manager) was excellent to deal with during the lead up to our event, they were accommodating with changes to guest numbers, seating arrangements and the menu. the restaurant set up was fantastic, the cake and table decorations featured well on the day against the stunning storey bridge as a back drop. our menu was elegant and we have received so many compliments on the quality and presentation of the food. to start we chose alternate drops of duck risotto or king prawns followed by chicken and mushroom ballottine or veal fillet.

the la vue staff made the overall diningexperiencefantastic. the ambiance, décor and service were of the highest standard, all food came out promptly and our event ran very close to our desired timing. our guests have given feedback that all the servers on the day were pleasant and attentive to our guests needs. la vue's wine and beverage list was extremely comprehensive and i had no issues choosing an excellent wide variety of wines for the day which our patrons thoroughly enjoyed.

we look forward to coming back to la vue for a meal when we next visit brisbane. we couldn't fault anything for our event, everything went perfectly. we highly recommend this restaurant for weddings or events as you won't be disappointed and we thank renaldo and his team for making our wedding on easter saturday the best day of our lives.

perfect dining experience. from the moment my wife and i arrived we were shown incredible hospitality by knowledgeable and friendly staff. our table had a perfect view of the story bridge and the presentation of the restaurant was of the highest standard. each of our five courses were flawless and the wine was matched perfectly to suit. this was by far the best diningexperiencewe've had in years, possibly ever. all staff at la vue should be commended on their service, we have never been so well looked after.
