Loved this place. I just happened to be staying at stamford across the rd and saw this place in cnr of my eye. Did a walk in the guy at the front door was awesome. Said sit down ill get you a drink and you can wait till we open at midday. Got shown my table the service from everyone was outstanding and what true proper customer service should be. In comparison to service in Sydney, Qld outshines us by a long shot and our service here is non existent. I just want to thank management and the team for probably the best time, meal and service I’ve probably had and hats off to the owners for going above and beyond. 🙏🏼

Food: 3.5/5 We ordered the beef tartare, New York strip, lamb, chips, cauliflower side, and pepper sauce. For the pricing, it was average. Everything was well-seasoned but somehow quite lacklustre at the same time. The complimentary bread was also quite average with a pleasant side of barbecue sauce and butter. Service: 3/5 The service was very inconsistent like other reviews have mentioned. We came ~5 minutes early to our reservation. We were asked to wait in the lobby until they were ready but were never invited back to join. We only came back to dine in because we noticed others were going inside and brought up our reservation. This might be because I was taking photos but still a bit odd. The waitress we had appeared newer? She provided minimal explanation of the menu. Some staff appeared more on the unfriendly/unpleasant side or just a little awkward. A couple of staff were lovely and their efforts to be welcoming of helpful was also noted. In summary, you could say the overall vibe was odd. Food came in adequate timing. Atmosphere: 5/5 The music was moderate and a bit cheery. We visited on Sunday lunch and there were quite a few patrons present. The restaurant itself was beautiful and very classy. The natural lighting from the windows were pleasant during lunch time.

Nice restaurant with a refined and elegant atmosphere. It clearly has historical significance, which is reinforced by the fact that, after payment, I received a postcard featuring an old photograph of the building. We arrived without a reservation, and it took several minutes before someone acknowledged us. We were informed that the manager needed to be consulted before seating us, which resulted in an additional 3 minutes wait at the entrance. We ordered two eye fillet steaks, a crumbed cauliflower dish, grandads potato, and crème brûlée for dessert. The eye fillet was an excellent cut; however, it was unseasoned for my taste. The crème brûlée was good, but not exceptional. The grandads potato is exotic and unusual. The potato balls seem to have been fried. Three different types of bread were served before the mains, one unit of each, but obviously insufficient for three people to share. Imagine yourself having to slice a bread in 3 parts. As a result, we had to order an additional bread plate. I do not drink alcohol, but comments at the table were that the wine and beer prices are excessively high. The food pricing also felt inflated, with the AUD $64.00 eye fillet served without any sides being a clear example. Lucas served our table and was a true gentleman—professional, attentive, and courteous. Overall, it was a good experience, provided you are willing to pay significantly more than usual for dining out. Photos attached for the menu and food that we ordered.

We dropped into Walter’s for lunch in Brisbane as a group of three without a booking and were pleasantly surprised to be accommodated without any fuss — always a great start. The food itself was a real highlight. We ordered a variety of entrees and mains, along with sides, and every dish was beautifully presented, delicious, and cooked to perfection. Clearly a kitchen that knows exactly what it’s doing. We enjoyed things so much that we rolled straight into desserts, dessert wine, and coffees to finish — because why stop when you’re on a roll? There were a couple of small service hiccups worth mentioning. The Chenin Blanc we initially ordered unfortunately had a fault — it contained cork fragments, likely due to the Coravin system — and honestly didn’t taste like wine at all. While the sommelier was extremely apologetic (which we appreciated), they suggested it came down to our taste rather than the wine itself. We happily swapped to a rosé and moved on, but it was a slightly awkward moment. Later, one coffee was missed when our final order arrived at the table. After mentioning it to the friendly wait staff, it was quickly brought out, confirmed as part of our original order (it was written down), and then removed from the bill — handled professionally and kindly, which we really valued. Overall, a fantastic lunch with excellent food and warm service, with just a few minor bumps that, if smoothed out, could make the experience truly seamless.
