Restaurants provide more than just a place to eat — they’re an integral part of the local community. These establishments create jobs, support tourism, encourage socializing and entertainment, help shape the local economy and culture, and add variety and flavor to people’s daily lives. Additionally, restaurants are often a reflection of their hometowns as they cook with locally sourced ingredients and serve traditional regional dishes all around the world. But when it comes to choosing one restaurant from many around you, you might find yourself wondering how to decide which one is right for your next meal. Doing some research, finding out the price range, checking location and cuisine type, and reading reviews and ratings can be useful in choosing which dining spot to visit but simultaneously this could take a lot of your time to do it. Here is a better option to locate the famous restaurant near you. For you, Shout N Australia compiled a list of top places for eating out in this city which will make it easier for you to narrow down your choices and make a decision.

Zomato Review: “Otto is on level 4 at 480 Queen Street. Nice food, friendly staff and playful fit-out. The vibe of the restaurant is very warm and welcoming. They have several red rotating lamp shades on the ceiling that makes the atmosphere more interesting! We had Tonno (raw tuna with Marsala crackers) and Spaghettini (lobster pasta), and Mango (Frozen mango curd). Spaghettini was one of the best lobster pasta I have had. Generally we had an enjoyable time at Otto and we will come back next time we are in Brissie!” – Jennifer Li

Trip Advisor Review: “Excellent service from everyone at Blackbird. From greeting us, to our table waiters and the bar attendants, all faultless. We had a booking for midday in the restaurant but in the beautiful Spring weather we were enjoying having a drink outside near the bar too much.. We were told to take our time out there and not rush to our table until we wanted to. Excellent service. We ordered 2 dozen oysters ($60 dozen) and the seafood platter for 3 to 4 people $83 (photo included). One person could definitely polish off the 3 to 4 person platter just saying. Can’t wait to go back to Blackbird for a special occasion.. Totally worth it.” – hayles74brisbane

Trip Advisor Review: “We recently did a weekend stay at The Point Hotel for a Christmas function and decided on the trying the onsite Lamberts Restaurant and was not disappointed. The food, presentation, service and price did not disappoint and was on par with many of the Brisbane Restaurants you had to travel to get to. It had lovely dinner ambience so you could just talk without thumping music and constant loud chatter. I would highly recommend Lamberts and would definitely go again next time we stay in Kangaroo Point.” – insanity4
