I told our waitress Camille that the food was excellent but the service was better. The Rib on the bone was fantastic and my wife’s charred mushroom pasta was delicious. The fact that you had my favorite Fortaleza tequila was a plus. Camille anticipated our every need. Truly a great experience!!

We liked it so much that after having the Power Banquet ($54) one day, we decided to go again during our short stay in Brisbane. On the second time, we had the Drover's Delight Banquet ($84), and it was as good as the first time. The seared scallops were the best we ever had - they were fantastic! The Jamon Iberico with the Artisan Sourdough Ciabatta was excellent (Power Banquet). We also enjoyed very much the sirloin (Drover's Delight, not from the Power Banquet). The service was good.

Learn from my mistake, be familiar with the menu before you go. Still giving 5 stars as it's not the restaurant's fault, but mine for not researching the prices beforehand. While it was a shock, it could have easily been avoided with prior organisation. Food: steaks tasted spectacular, complimentary sides were delicious, everyone left full with some food left over. One person received blue/rare steak when he ordered medium rare, but everyone else received exactly the steak they ordered. Service: We arrived with a party of 10, with a late booking, and yet the waitstaff made us feel welcome. They worked together to keep us served, and while we were served our steaks long after the kitchen should have been closed, the food was still hot and cooked to our specifications. Additionally, without prior arrangement, the staff discovered we were celebrating a graduation, and whipped up a lovely complimentary dessert. Atmosphere: the atmosphere of the restaurant actually clued us in that this was a higher quality (and price) steakhouse than expected, before we even saw the menu. It's clean, quiet, lushly planted, and feels opulent. There is wheelchair accessibility, but there are stairs at the front entrance. You will need to use the back door. I recommend this place, but be familiar with the menu/prices beforehand. You certainly get what you pay for, with fantastic service and food.

Six of us had a table. We’ve decided that set menu is the right thing to do, you got to try few smaller dishes. Came out good , very fresh good presentation and they are all delicious!!! Special thanks to Tony he looked after us well, the place was packed , but Tony and the rest of the team managed to perfectly executed the task. Good spaces between dishes, if you’re that person like pairing your drink with your food. You’ll be well liked here, anyway we enjoyed our gathering and we’ll be back again, cheers!

We had the 9 course power banquet. I’m every bite had so much flavour and cooked to perfection. Side note the oysters had a very strong taste so if you’re not a fan I wouldn’t recommend. Otherwise it was a great experience our waiter Benji was superb! We sat outside and there were little friends flying around and decided to go into my wine. Our waiter was kind enough to give me a new full glass. The food came out really quick too but that could be cause it was a quiet time as we ate at 3pm.

I was recommended this restaurant through a friend who is a chef. We were five of us and I booked $50 power banquet course. Every food was fresh and delightful no matter the cost. Especially we loved entree scallop. The wait staffs gave us great wine recommendations. Each plate had its own taste, and it was a very well-cooked and decent course. They knew what they're doing. Fancy atmosphere and service that goes well with both casual lunch and dinner dates. Absolutely recommended.

I've done dozens of top steak restaurants across UK, USA, South Africa and Australia over 30 years and I've got a pretty good eye for the good and the bad. This one is genuinely very good. You will see some picky comments on here which will always be the case as perfection doesn't exist, but overall this was an excellent experience in all areas - steak, sides, service, ambience and fair pricing, particularly the wine Will definitely go again If I can indulge a small gripe, it was just the manager coming over and blatantly interrupting our discussion with our waiter, as if we were invisible and starting a conversation with him. We all looked at each other a bit stunned. He never even said 'excuse me' 🤣 Sometimes the position makes them lose their memory of who the customer is in their business.

We celebrated my birthday here and it was a wonderful experience. The steak was excellent. Perfectly cooked and so flavoursome. The entrees were good, but I found the scallops to be slightly overcooked, and the king prawns just ok. The bread roll with bone marrow butter was delicious. Staff were attentive and friendly. At the end of the meal, they brought out a birthday dessert on the house. It is expensive but would love to dine here again.

Overall enjoyable experience though quite expensive when all added up and wouldnt consider it value for money at all. The service was good - attentive and professional, and the ambiance was comfortable and relaxed. Steaks were good, well cooked and flavourful. Some of the cocktails were excellent, others average. Wagyu bites (chefs special snack) were majority batter and literally only a few strands of meat that couldnt be tasted at all. Desserts were average, and wouldnt recommend. Ordered panna cotta and creme brulee - not sure if an intentional twist on traditional but they were both warm and the pannacotta was completely unset. Overall I probably wouldnt recommend it for an all-out experience unfortunately.

December 23, 2024

Horrendous service and food quality. Had a staff member walk away while I was asking a question about a dish. Waited 50 minutes for drinks to arrive with nothing offered. Only decent quantity part of the banquet was a sirloin steak that was so poorly cooked it was Mostly inedible. Only passable part of the meal was the Panna Cotta desert that unfortunately I was unable to eat. Over $400 for 4 people to then need to go and get something else to eat is a joke! Up there with the worst dining experience of my life. Oh, they took one round of drinks off the bill when I made the person at the front counter aware of my displeasure and still charged me $380!

Power Banquet was great value, great food, great service. We ate at 4:45pm before a show. Gluten free options were given or gluten items put on the side. Red wine superb. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free bread given roll which was soft and plenty. I m not a celiac so was fine for me to have the fries and the crumbs on the side for the scollops.

Got the power banquet Food Pros -oysters -cured meat -sour dough -desert Food cons -scallops were hard and over cooked -Lettus wasnt pre cut -steak very disappointing, asked for med rare came out small Gray med well, sent it back came out after rare, Gray, bland and very fatty. They offered a free desert and appoligise that was lovely. Service was flawless.. Tibet was amazing,!! Accommodating and ontop of everything. Over all. I probably wouldnt say it is worth the money, I did have higher expectations. But the service and vibe is great for cocktail night.

Maximiliaan was our wait staff member. He was professional, courteous, knowledgeable about the food and drinks menu and attentive. The atmosphere is great. This is not a steak place although fine, aged, wagyu and wood fired beef is their specially. This is fine dining quality all the way and the wagyu was perfecrly cooked and a religious experience to enjoy. The signature cocktails are innovative and delicious. Not inexpensive but no more expensive than you would expect for the quality. All in all a fantastic experience.

Visited on a busy Saturday night for dinner with friends. Our server, a gent with a South American accent, made our night. He was friendly, courteous and offered succinct advice where needed. Shouts to him. For entrees we ordered ciabatta, marinated olives, camembert and oysters. I didnt have the oysters but others said they were spot on. The camembert was very good. For main, I ordered the 250g wagyu rump cap (medium well). It was cooked perfectly and I enjoyed every bite. Others ordered Chefs Secret (I tasted some, very good!), wagyu tomahawk and market fish (swordfish in this instance). Everybody raved about their choice. Most people had kipfler potatoes or green beans as a side. The beans were nice. The potatoes were ok but nothing out of the ordinary. I had creme brulee for dessert. Fairly standard and didnt hit the high notes the main meals did, but whatever. Genuinely one of the best dinners Ive had in a long long time. 10/10, would return. Giving this rating due to service and standard of meals. If I had to be picky about anything, the shared bathrooms are a bit weird for a high end venue.

We had a group dinner here with our friends. The place was great as well as the service but what took us with great shock was our bill. They were serving us of what we thought was tap water until we saw it in the bill that they have charged each one of us including the children but not once where we were ask about it. Also, the service fee here is astounding. We ve been to a couple of fancy dining restaurants, even fancier but never charged this high. So for those planning to try this place, i d say to be aware of the prices coz you will probably end up with 30%-40% higher bill than what you expect. Overall it was a good experience but I d probably won t try it here again.

This restaurant provided a lovely setting to celebrate my partner s birthday, especially as they are a steak lover. However, my experience fell short of expectations. I ordered a medium-well sirloin, but it was served very rare. As I wasn t particularly hungry, I chose not to mention it to the waiter at the time, but I believe a nearly untouched plate might have warranted a follow-up from the staff to ensure everything was satisfactory. As a steak restaurant, I would have expected doneness to be a point of mastery, but unfortunately, this was a significant miss for me. Given the premium pricing and reputation, I left feeling underwhelmed. While it was a memorable evening for my partner, I ll likely be returning to MooMoo for future special occasions as my preferred steak restaurant in Brisbane.

We arrived before 5:30pm for the Power Banquet for $54. We had been given a gift voucher as a birthday present for my husband a couple of months earlier. Everything was delicious. My favourite dishes were the scallops, the Barra, the steak and the lettuce (OMG). The courses came along at a good pace and we were easily out within 2 hours. Max, our waiter and my husband s namesake looked after us superbly and attentively even down to bringing out the dessert with happy birthday and a sparkler! The venue is easy to access and at 5:30pm it was quiet. By 6:30pm it was obvious how much people have taken to Rich and Rare as it was nearly full. We will be back and will be thoroughly recommending it to our friends. Michael Tassis you have another successful restaurant. Bravo! Parking: Under the West Village - 2 hours free.

He was so attentive to every diner, quick to pick up on little cues, and gave us top-notch table service. He really made our dinner experience even better.

We specifically searched for a good steakhouse on Google. And found! We reserved online, a bit complicated, you also have to pay 20 AUD in advance by credit card for the reservation. If you dont show up for the reserved appointment, AUD 20 will be deducted from the credit card. In any case, we had a great place, sensational service!!! with advice on the various steaks. The octopus to share as a starter is a dream The Wagyu (200 g flank) was very tasty, I chose it based on our waiters recommendation and was thrilled! The only thing I didnt like was the leaf lettuce. The olive oil used had a very dominant taste and vinegar/acid was completely missing. The fries and the Bernaise sauce were perfect. With my husbands steak, also Wagyu, the beans were very firm to the bite, but the potatoes were generous in quantity and tasted good R&R is definitely recommended

The service attitude was particularly poor. I ordered a power Banquet, but the salad didnt serve. When I informed the waiter while they try to clearing the plates, the waiter said, Do you want me to serve the salad STILL! Of course, I paid for the Banquet. As his attitude, he probably doesnt want to serve the salad, he didnt feel sorry, he takes it for granted. The service attitude is particularly bad. I ordered a set meal but the salad was not served. I informed him when the plates were collected at the service station. The waiter said: Do you want me to serve salad? Of course, I paid for the package, don t I want to join it?

Absolutely loved it! Best value banquet lunch in town. Had the Power Banquet and could not be happier. Everything from the bread to the barra, the steak and sauce, scallop, iceberg lettuce, even the chips, everything was divine! We all ordered the same and had the steak medium, which I loved! Some of the others on the table thought it wouldve been better slightly less done but I thought it was perfect. The service and vibes were 10/10! Checked with us on food allergies and made sure it was on point. Cant believe we hadnt tried this place earlier.

Went there for a corporate lunch meeting and tried the power banquet. I must say I wasnt able to fault the food, so top marks to the chef! Service was good and we were attended to and seated in no time! The ambience was good - new and modern surroundings nestled amongst the West End Village gardens! Yes, I would most definitely come back again to dine at R&R!

This was my second visit to Rich and Rare, and both experiences have been outstanding. I can confidently say it s one of the best restaurants in Brisbane! Our meal was wonderful from start to finish. The highlight was Chef Kadu s expertise with wagyu beef the wagyu flat iron just melted in your mouth, super tender and juicy on the inside with a light, flavorful crust on the outside (simply sensational). The Piamontese rice was another standout of the night, incredibly delicious Each dish was perfectly prepared, really bringing out the flavors. The service was also fantastic, especially from one of the managers who made us feel so welcome. I highly recommend Rich and Rare, especially if you re a wagyu lover. I ll definitely be back!

What an extraordinary experience it was at Rich & Rare. We were four women for a long, lazy lunch, enjoying a nine-course power banquet, which is a fantastic way to taste test the menu. As most have expressed, the oysters and scallops were fresh and truly delightful. The Barramundi in a foamed miso butter bed with pickled kohlrabi topped with Tobiko was a stand out for me. The steak, joyous little nuggets of smoky goodness. Oddly I was most excited about the lettuce it did not disappoint, who knew the humble iceberg could be such a cornerstone of a meal. An outstanding wine list served us well. The meal felt extravagant but the portions were perfect for us, there s nothing worse than enjoying a meal and then regretting it later, feeling you ve overindulged. Will be back.

The atmosphere was pretty good but the steak and sides were kinda mid. The steak was cooked medium rare but the quality of the steak wasn t worth the money. Bone Marrow mash was the same, the concept is great but the execution wasn t done that well. Bone Marrow mash didn t really give the impact I was expecting. Steak Tartare, tasted warm and a bit sour. There wasn t any other taste to it. The chips weren t crisp, felt like they were left on the warmer for too long before being served to us

There s a surcharge for the banquet on the weekend, which is fine. But note that they had also applied the surcharge to all of our drinks, which I found a bit odd. Still, it was a nice night out.

I went with my hubby to spoil him for his birthday, we decided to go for the $54 banquet and it was amazing! My hairdresser recommended the place so I decided to bring my hubby and enjoy. We booked a late lunch to have a relaxed Saturday! The lunch started with: Oysters as Entree, ciabatta warm bread and jamón Serrano, the steak (wonderful!) with a mushroom sauce and a beautiful lettuce with a nice dressing and parmensan cheese. Then a piece a barramundi... we accompanied the lunch with a gin a tonic for my hubby and a Cavernet Savignon from WA (loved it) for me. To finalise the dessert, profiteroles! Filled with a beautiful chocolate cream, when the dessert arrived was almost 4pm so we decided to have our desserts with a coffee. Perfect lunch! Then siesta!

October 23, 2024

Extremely disappointing. Had the R&R Experience and it was shocking. Almost inedible. Salty, chewy meat, woolies packet salad, frozen cheesecake. The service was appalling.. the waitress had no idea.. we had to constantly coach her on what was included with the R&R Experience menu. Wines were forgotten etc. We spent over $400 for two people and felt sick paying. If you re going to have your B team on Tuesdays, maybe charge you B prices as well. Won t be back.

W e recently dined at Rich & Rare Restaurant and opted for the famous banquet, priced at $54 per person, with a 10% surcharge on Saturdays (excluding drinks). On the staff s recommendation, we also added the beef tataki, which featured incredible wagyu with truffle ponzu an excellent choice. Every dish in the banquet was delightful, especially the mains: the barramundi and sirloin steak were outstanding, and the oysters and scallops were equally impressive. The only slight letdown was the dessert, which was quite average, but still acceptable considering the overall value. What truly set this experience apart was the exceptional service. The staff were attentive, ensuring that our table was cleaned between each course, which is a detail even some higher-end restaurants overlook. Overall, I highly recommend Rich & Rare Restaurant for a satisfying dining experience with superb service. This version maintains the key details while providing a polished, cohesive review.
