What an amazing experience we had at Bacchus! We had truffle tasting menu for the evening. 6 courses plus some snacks, An unforgettable culinary journey—every dish was a masterpiece! Incredible depth of flavor—each bite was a new discovery of truffle perfection. Such a shame they won’t be holding dinner services for a while now. We genuinely enjoyed every single dish, bravo to the chefs! It’s one of best fine dining we had in Australia. Impeccable service—the staff’s knowledge and passion elevated the experience. Hope you will be reopening for dinner soon Bacchus !
I had dinner here with a few friends and we went for the tasting menu.. every single dish was incredible. Normally, at most places, there’s only one or two dishes that really stand out but here, everything was consistently amazing from start to finish. The wine pairing was spot on too! perfectly complementing each course. Service was attentive without being over the top, and the attention to detail really stood out. Marco, the chef, absolutely nailed it. I have pretty high expectations when it comes to food but he delivered on every level. I’ll definitely be back. Easily one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time.
A Truly Magical Culinary Journey at Bacchus Brisbane From the moment we stepped into Bacchus, we knew we were in for something special—but nothing could have prepared us for the extraordinary evening that unfolded. We indulged in the tasting menu with paired wines, and every single course felt like a piece of art. The dishes were imaginative, balanced, and utterly divine—each bite transporting us into a world of flavour and elegance. The wine pairing was on another level—Rory, with his incredible knowledge and passion, felt like an alchemist. He masterfully elevated each dish with the perfect glass, sharing insights with such enthusiasm that it made the whole experience even more special. Ellie brought a personal warmth to our table that turned fine dining into something deeply human and memorable. Every single staff member was professional, attentive, and radiated genuine hospitality. The venue itself is stunning—clean, sparkling, and oozing with classy charm. The ambience, service, and presentation were all five-star, but honestly, if I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would. This was easily one of the best dining experiences we’ve ever had. Bacchus isn’t just a restaurant—it’s an experience. Worth every cent and more.
When we walked in to the restaurant it was just so beautiful. The interior design and furniture felt grand and opulent. We had high tea and it was served on a three tiered stand with contemporary porcelain. I loved the complimentary bubbles for my birthday. That was a lovely surprise, and made me feel special. The food looked petite but it felt like a good variety and quality made. It’s a nice venue for celebrations and fine dining experience. Staff were friendly and swift with professional service. Loved our afternoon high tea experience.
What an excellent dining experience! The food is fantastic. The dishes may look ordinary, but the execution of flavours is extraordinary. The service is outstanding, friendly and prompt. We pair some of the dishes with sake, and it's absolutely wonderful.
