    They were late with our table being ready. The drinks and food order taken at same time felt very rushed. Dress code was not adhered to. Cocktails not good and food was ok at best. Notes on booking ignored. Was a special occasion and we both went away feeling depressed after this visit.

    Ordered pork belly and mushrooms. Pork belly was cold but the mushrooms were good. Seems like pork was sitting somewhere while they were preparing mushrooms. The two tables we used were wobbly.

    It was a very good experience, staff were lovely and kind in assisting myself and my partner to our table. The food was delicious and presented every well. The atmosphere was a little loud but that’s the environment of the restaurant. Would highly recommend.

    We ordered the pork belly and the bulgogi beef taco. PB tasty but the spicy daikon was a little overpowering a mix of fresh and pickled daikon I feel would have lifted the dish added freshness. The taco and salad filling stood on its own it was the beef that let the dish down too thick and chewy. The best bulgogi beef I have had was shredded, wafer thin and lightly charred. Staff were friendly, appearance neat, competent and appeared to work well as a team. Can’t say I wont be back but there are a few other rooftops to try in Brisbane before the Terrace reaches the top of the list.

    The option of grazing plates worked perfectly for us. So many delicious choices it gave us the option to have a bit of everything.

    We loved the views! Food was tasty but there was no service out in the balcony so we had to order for ourselves at the bar. Bartenders were friendly, patient and accommodating.

    Location is fantastic. Continental breakfast component v good Main breakfast poor, was cold and returned (dealt with promptly) upon return, not all components cooked. The hotel, I believe did not charge for the breakfast. It could be considerably improved; I hope it is as many nearby places offer better food, albeit without the view.

    Server was not attentive and never came back so we had to ask another server for dessert and the bill. Food and ambiance was great though.
