    Went out Valentines day. They were SO BUSY, yet the food arrived within a decent time, and the service was attentive. We don't eat out at semi-expensive places often, and this was a reminder that the food is SO MUCH BETTER. Wife tried something she never had before and was gushing over it. Ambience was great, lots of greenery, subtle Italian music in the background, and even though it was packed, we could talk in normal voices. Highly recommended. The whole meal (plus rose, as I am a softy) came in at $250 which included a couple of drinks each. Absolutely worth every cent, which comes from someone who isn't exactly flush with cash.

    First time in Brisbane and we got very lucky when booking a table at Mr Chester. Harry was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the menu and guided us well. We throughly enjoyed trying different sparkling and wines than we would usually have at home in WA.
