Mr. Mista is an L.A. inspired cocktail bar & Asian influenced kitchen that caters for people who love an elegant dining experience, but can still party.

Or was it when you went to L.A. and tried Banh Mi for the first time?Whatever it is for you, our food is going to make you feel some type of way. Textures that crunch, aromas to make your mouth water, flavours that make you vocal (argh) & aesthetics you’ll want to share to your story.Did someone say drinks? Our cocktail list will hit you with nostalgia that reminds you of that holiday, where you had a butler, a poolside cabana & an endless supply of fresh coconut

ESSA is a wood-fired restaurant and wine bar on Robertson Street, Fortitude Valley, a short walk from James Street, Brisbane.Chef and owner Phil Marchant builds the menu around relationships with local farmers, hunters and providores. The fire does the work it's good at. What's in season shapes what's on the plate. Dishes that are considered, familiar and honest, without being precious about it.Named Gourmet Traveller Queensland's Best Restaurant (2023 & 2025), ESSA sits comfortably outside the typical fine dining category. The interiors are raw, the wine list is serious, and the cooking is produce-driven in the truest sense.Not fine dining. Not, not fine dining.Open Tuesday–Saturday from 5pm. Friday and Sunday lunch from 12pm.
