Bowen Hills

About the restaurant

Montrachet at Bowen Hills, is located on King Street. Large windows enclose a lavishly furnished space, creating
intimacy for a world of luxury inside; white tablecloths, silver cutlery, rich timbers and a well-stocked bar and cellar are all redolent of a charming Parisian brasserie and perceptive waitstaff are attentive in fulfilling culinary desires.
Stepping into Montrachet is like stepping into a Parisian bistro. From the burgundy leather banquet that runs the length of the room, to the marble comptoir (bar), Montrachet oozes elegance and charm. Traditional overtones and design are accompanied by Laguiole cutlery, monogrammed crockery and the finest glassware. French antiques, metal pastis signs and gilt framed mirrors create an ambience perfectly complimentary to the French cuisine of executive chef and owner Clement Chauvin is famous for.

Another highly enjoyable experience at Acciuga. Food was delicious and the suggested matched wines and service excellent. This time we succumbed to dessert, the cake of the day and were not disappointed as it too was very good. Thank you for another great experience.

Absolutely loved our date night at Venner. Opted for the Set Menu which was a great way to taste things we wouldn't normally try and have a variety of pleasant surprises. The amount of food was perfect and you never had to wait long between courses. Each dish was exceptionally tasty and beautifully presented. The ambience was perfect and the staff were attentive and seemed passionate about the menu. My favourites were the kangaroo pastrami, potato brioche, and the tender pork - along with the madeleines at the end of the meal. We also loved our cocktails and the wine recommended by the team. We can't wait to recommend Venner to anyone looking for an excellent meal in Brisbane.
