A French influenced dining experience, offering carefully selected dishes by either a la carte or a degustation (tasting selection). Although located is in the busy Sofitel ground floor the restaurant is out of the foot traffic and noise within a separate room with fine views of the Brisbane skyline. A good selection of wines by the glass or bottle is available at prices reasonable for the quality of the offering. We selected a NZ Pinot Noir (Ha Ha was the label) which proved a fine match. The menu has a selection of fish, fowl, lamb, beef and vegetarian options. Fish of the day was Snapper. Our lamb was perfectly cooked, with asparagus and in a reduction sauce, accompanied by white bean paste, black garlic and mustard. Similarly, delicious was our other dish of Tasmanian salmon, king mushrooms and zucchini. Crme brle du jour was not the traditional vanilla but included Nutella, making it too adventurous for our taste. Despite luscious sounding alternative sweets, we opted for the cheese platter that was more than adequate for two. It included 5 cheeses, and a freshly made intense paste reminiscent of pears and perfect with the cheese selection, served with lavosh bread, sticks and water crackers. The nuts were very fresh and the dried muscats full of flavour. Service was exceptional showing excellent knowledge of the offerings and of last-minute changes in view of ingredient availability. All in all a great location for that intimate evening celebration.
Good atmosphere with friendly staff, the menu was different from the one here in this app, but still with many options. I picked for entree the scallops, which were perfect and tasty, for main i got the chicken with lime risotto, the chicken was tender in the inside and crisp outside but the risotto was too acid for me, couldn’t eat much of that risotto.
There were a few parts of Prive249 that were outstanding. The service was attentive but not too overbearing. The food overall was good, paced nicely so not waiting too long or felt you were in a hurry. The old clock tower was a beautiful view. But there was nothing spectacular about the dishes, they felt very safe. The mornay scallops I would order again, and while the skin was perfectly crisp the meat was overcooked for my liking
Good food, great atmosphere and has the best service&hosts that are out of this world.. The minute that I walked in i knew that i was going to get treatment fit for a queen. Definitely coming back
Sensational food. I have wanted to visit Prive249 for some time now, and finally, I now have! The food is of the highest quality fine dining. Prive is exquisite and the mastery of the chef is well presented on the plate with great presentation and flavours. This is one of Brisbane’s best dining experiences.
I ordered the scallops for Entre, not bad. For mains I ordered the Wagyu beef, wasn’t as good as I expected, I’ve had better for a much reasonable price. The atmosphere was great though. Service was good of course. Overall, I was a bit disappointed. I’d say for a fine dining restaurant, I would expect better.
Splendid service and great food. Had the Pork Belly and Wagyu, well matched wines and superb dessert. Nice and quiet little spot in an otherwise bustling hotel.
