Central Restaurant

I genuinely don’t know where to start. Everything from start to finish was exceptional. The service was amazing especially our waitress! We ordered the executive banquet and I couldn’t recommend it more, every single dish that came out left my partner and I stunned the food was phenomenal. Every single thing down to the steamed vegetables had so much flavour. The drinks were delicious and everything was worth every bit of money! It was my partners birthday and our lovely waitress brought out a treat to end the night and I couldn’t recommend this place enough. I would be here every night if I could!

A world class experience. Visually stunning as you enter the space. Service staff are friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The open kitchen is awesome to behold. The food is all so delicious, making it too difficult to pick a favourite dish. The canton martini was the perfect start to the meal. Every wine we had was the perfect match for what we ate. Can’t wait to go back to central. Brisbane is lucky to have Central!

Outstanding food and friendly, knowledgeable service. Olivia gave friendly advice and was extremely attentive to our needs. The cocktails were delicious and someone came over to discuss types of Mezcal - which went beautifully with the food. Really loved the interior too! Choose a seat overlooking the chefs at work.

Where to start… for me it’s mid. The great things: -Le labo candles and handwash -unique interior -quick service and they have lots of df and gf options Can be improved: -music. I expected a more cultural sensory experience. The moody interior and light didnt match the background music. It diminisbed the lux experience. I felt i was in a canteen. Maybe play some jazz or blues cantonese or chinese music -the LED ceiling lights are great when looking at photos from a 3rd person perspective. However being there in person still feels too bright. Like youre in an office or hospital. Maybe dim the lights more or change the led colours to a more amber colour for a more intimate feel. Also draw the curtains as it feels weird if customers draw the curtains themselves -the food doesnt taste phenomenal for the price u pay. I had better dumplings at shopping malls in China. Food altogether is overpriced for how it’s presented. The tables arent even either. Maybe get artisanal tables with darker colour since the plates you use are white.

First I'd like to start with the fit out and the service Both 10/10 The design of the restaurant was incredible, it felt so cool entering the space, and even though it was a big restaurant, it felt intimate! Loved that it was grungy, futuristic, and post war bunker all wrapped into one! The service was the best we have had in a long time, both waiter and wine lady were helpful, friendly, and there when we needed! Great drinks menu, with lots of options, and plenty of cocktails to choose from. Lots of options on the food menu, that we could go back and choose a completely different meal. The flavours, and quality of the food were great. The variety in the entree’s meant for a really fun tasting experience, and the mains were large portions, making for a lovely doggy bag. I loved the deserts! Overall, this was a great restaurant for a date night, I would definitely come back to make my way through more of the menu options, and to get some of the stellar service!

I took my partner for a birthday date night - we couldn’t fault anything about the night! We got the executive banquet and were so impressed by everything, this almost never happens! Highly recommend.

Amazing night at Central! Sarah was an incredible host, the service was flawless, the food was outstanding, and the atmosphere had the perfect vibe. Couldn’t ask for more — highly recommend!

I made a reservation two weeks in advance and specifically requested a good table, as I was hosting visiting friends and wanted them to have the best experience. Unfortunately, we were seated in a back corner, far from the bar, which did not feel special as intended. I had also enquired in advance about the food options during the disco shift but received no response. In addition, the table scanner was shared with the adjacent table, which caused repeated interruptions as staff checked if dishes were ours. While the food was of good quality, the price point was on the higher side relative to the portion sizes. Overall, there is room for improvement in both communication and the guest experience.
