Been here twice in the last week, the first time here it took over 15 minutes for my drink to arrive.
Gave it a shot again tonight with a mate, understaffed again waited a long time for the drinks to come out.
The steak was over priced for what you got and you forgot the sauce that we paid for and we asked for medium rare and it was medium to well done. The scallops didn’t taste fresh at all and were tough with a strong fish flavour. Lastly the calamari was tough and dry. Unfortunately we walked out and left the food on the table to go elsewhere.
I rarely leave 1 star reviews however very

My second visit to Riverbar & Kitchen. We were quickly greeted at the entrance by a staff member and given an option of tables. We chose to sit inside to enjoy the air-conditioning and the seating with back support. Accessibility was very good.
Our orders were promptly taken by our friendly waiter, which was great because I prefer placing an order in person. There was also the option of contactless ordering via the ME&U QR code on the table (no app required). This is good for groups who want to pay seperately. Keep in mind that, at the time of writing this, a 5% service fee is added by default

Lovely casual ambiance and menu amongst a rather sterile, poncy glamour strip of restaurants. Best view point along the river and my new favourite place to sit and watch the world go by. Perfectly situated near the Riverside ferry stop. Could do with a more extensive range of local, popular beers but had Great Northern on tap. Fish and chips was/were awesome!!! Great choice of seating options too with outdoor heaters. Also, the cutest Irish barman. 😆

We were really looking forward to lunch here. I had been eyeing it off every time we came to Brisbane. We had lunch here on Thursday. Staff were lovely initially and then we literally didn’t have anyone come to our table except to drop off food. The calamari was disgusting. It was not fresh and so dry. We didn’t eat it after the first piece. Drinking establishment.. won’t recommend for food!

Beautiful location by the river but unfortunately half the price you pay is for the location as the food is sadly not up to high standards nor is it worth its price
we ordered the angus steak medium rare $35, gamberetto pizza $23 and linguni
for drinks we ordered the wham bam jam, Blue Steel Spritz and Wild Rosé Spritz
drinks were pretty and overall quite nice, within a reasonable price range for cocktails which is good
food on the other hand was disappointing to say the least
pizza was soft and soggy, wasn’t even hot when it came out, prawns were fresh but overall taste and texture wise

What a great bar/restaurant! The updated system for ordering makes things very quick and efficient. You obviously can't beat the view and people watching.
We ordered chicken strips and a burger. Chicken strips were so good I would go back any day of the week to have these. And great portion size too! The burger was good, but unfortunately the chips/fries were pretty awful. Many were slightly undercooked. Tomato sauce had something weird about it - it tasted very off, so that was inedible.
Would I return? Absolutely, the chicken strips are that good. Should you visit? Definitely! Great menu, decent
