Goldfinch Restaurant

Escape the city streets and discover Goldfinch, Brisbane’s iconic light-filled oasis. Blending Hamptons-inspired elegance with lush greenery and a hanging roof garden, this sophisticated sidewalk restaurant and bar feels worlds away from the bustle outside.

The menu takes its cue from the romantic simplicity of Mediterranean seaside bistros, offering dishes that are refined yet full of heart. Every plate is designed to be savoured, whether it’s for an intimate dinner, a decadent lunch, or even an elevated coffee meeting.

Highlights include the rump of lamb, slow-cooked to perfection and paired with creamy skordalia, minted peas, confit garlic, rosemary jus, and roasted baby carrots. Seafood lovers can indulge in the ricciarelli, a generous medley of king prawns, mussels, and battered scallops in a spicy chilli-garlic bisque, finished with a satisfying pangrattato crunch.

To complete the experience, Goldfinch offers a carefully curated list of cocktails, craft beers, and wines that are anything but an afterthought. A place that feels like your own secret super spot, it’s the kind of setting that leaves you with a happily-ever-after.
