   A nice selection of meals, by size and style. Very happy with our meals and service on the day, and of course, it's a bright and airy space with great views of Brisbane CBD over the river. Can recommend.

   Not a great variety of food to choose from. Food is best shared with 4 people as most small plates come with 4 pieces of food. I always order pina coladas when I go out. It’s good but I had better. There are definitely room for improvement. None of the staff looked very happy. No one greeted us with smiles and one male staff weren’t too happy when we asked him to take a photo for us. But we would go back again for the view, atmosphere and food.

   Booking was for 11.30 but arrived to be told kitchen not open till 12 - question 1 why is 11.30 an option? Question 2 why is that not communicated when booking is made/confirmed? 2 of the 4 primary dishes were very disappointing in terms of flavour and presentation. Desserts very difficult to eat with cutlery provided ie spoons only and items very very dense so hard to “cut”. Service needed to be chased up several times eg to have plates removed, to order dessert, etc

   Views, food, drinks and service all great - but music is always way too loud (been here on 3 separate occasions and every time I practically have to yell to talk to my guests), and while service is quick the table staff rarely smile.

   We were expecting a menu with less Asian and spicy food, everything was had with something spicy. The interesting food, like meat, was expensive, and the portion did not have 500gm. The music was loud. The waitresses did not come on time to take the dessert order. The lamb ribs were not cooked properly. I was a disappointing experience.

    Our table of 3 thoroughly enjoyed a delicious lunch special of fries, greens and salmon miso skewers totally scrumptious, our son had the squid equally tender and fresh followed by my favourite almond slice with raspberry sorbet and 2 Oreo cheesecakes. The food was a delight and beautifully presented. Drinks were good including a talented Singapore Sling and lattes. The ambiance is always special with refreshing breezes and polite professional service by staff who clearly enjoy their work as indicated by smiles, conversations and genuine interest in customer opinion and satisfaction of luncheon experience. Thanks Terrace Restaurant Emporium for another lovely lunch.
