Welcome to Chu the Phat, a vibrant and contemporary restaurant and bar set in South Brisbane’s up-and-coming Fish Lane dining precinct.

With a focus on Asian street food set to engage diners citywide, Chu the Phat draws on flavours from the hawker stalls of Hong Kong, Korea and Taiwan.

The younger sibling to Brisbane favourite Madame Wu is set to debut a diverse collection of a la carte dining options, lunch specials and group banquets in a massive multi-level venue with two kitchens, two bars and a variety of unique spaces. A perfect place to grab a bite to eat before heading to a show at Lyric Theatre, QPAC or Convention Center.

Join us every Wednesday from 4pm to indulge in a variety of dumplings or snacks with a martini for only $20 at our funky Doll House Bar.

The food was phenomenal, as was the service. We had a waiter-in-training who was enthusiastic, friendly, and doing a great job for his first night, while the waitress he was shadowing was attentive to us and encouraging to him. The pair was fantastic! And of course, the food could not have been any more delicious. It was quickly prepared and got us to our show on time and with full bellies!

I liked that there was a special gluten free menu for my friend. The waitress was very helpful and patient. We had the banquet and was very full at the end. A lighter dessert choice would have been nice, the chocolate and ganache was just really too heavy, delicious, but heavy.
