We have been semi regulars at Baccuus for birthday, anniversaries and special occasions since arriving in Brisbane 3 years ago . We have to say that it never fails to impress . Friday just gone we attended a pre Christmas dinner with our father who at 90 years of age flew up from NSW to spend some time with us over Christmas so of course we took him to Baccus . The team did not dissapoint . My father has difficulty cutting his food now days and when staff saw me cutting up his dinner they whisked it off to the kitchen to be cut up and bought back presented again beautifully. I can never fault the service or the food . As always a wonderful experience . Thankyou to Zac our ever attentive waiter . You will always have us coming back for more and you impressed my father who has eaten in some high quality establishments around the world .
Had a birthday dinner at this beautiful restaurant last night. The staff were attentive, polite and had a great knowledge of the food and wine. The food, simply wonderful and the sommelier match the wines perfectly with our food. Thank to all for making this a special night.
Remember it was again the Fork’s 50% off bill deal at my last visit. The impressive dining experience last time reminded us to order the a-must Foie Gras and the Wagyu MS 5+ again. Besides that we tried another two new dishes as the Duck Ravioli for entree and the Emu main dish.
All dishes remain high quality control with marvelous culinary skill. This time, presentation of the Fois Gras was not as attractive (maybe we had it before) as the emu dish, which presented the emu inside an intimated chocolate emu egg.
Overall, production was not as good as first time but still scored very high mark for the review👍

Enjoyable atmosphere with awesome food, spent a great night.
In celebration of my birthday this year, Rachel decided to bring me for high tea. We’ve heard a lot about Bacchus’ high tea and decided to try them. As we entered the restaurant, we were really amazed at the decoration and atmosphere of the restaurant. We were greeted by the friendly staff who escorted us to our seats and gave us a brief overview of the menu.
Ascend to the rooftop of Rydges Southbank to experience haute cuisine at its finest. Chef Massimo Speroni has created a culinary tapestry of emu, kangaroo, shark and quail, among a selection of premium meats and seafood. Furthermore, experiencing the imagination of his dishes stretches the bounds of expectation with innovations like the famed mojito sphere and martini jelly. Seven years on, and there is no end in sight to fine dining with the continual gasps of surprise this venue serves up.
This is one of my favorite fine dining restaurants in Brisbane! Service here was quite awesome, and the server would clean the table every time we finish a course. All the dishes here are delicate and in suitable size. The environment is romantic and cheese recommended by server was also fantastic! I’m very glad to recommend this restaurant to my friends!

Bacchus is one of the most beautiful and unique restaurants we have ever been!!!
People in Brisbane must try this GEM for every possible reasons.
The experience felt like we were in a totally different world. The food is exceptionally delicious as they have given importance for every single aspect.
Started the journey with some breads!
Entree - Mushroom (with blackTruffle) - The mushroom broth was delicious and filled with flavours. Black truffle was perfectly matched with the dish and every bite of my entree was great!
Mains - Lamb - Lamb was perfectly cooked with great flavours. The plate looked like an art with fabulous colours and amazing texture.
Dessert 1 - Biscotto - The best and most delicious coffee based dessert I have ever tried. Every inch of this dessert was filled with flavours and it will just take you to another level.
Dessert 2 - Coconut on the beach - Beautiful presentation with delicious flavours. Every bite of this dessert felt like OG in my mouth.
Unique cocktails - First time experience in trying the bite cocktail. This was just amazing and the flavours on the mojito bite just explodes in your mouth (so refreshing with tons of flavours)!!
We will definitely be back for more!!
This has been my 'to-do' list for awhile, therefore I had to jump at the chance of booking dinner for two on a weeknight when I saw that there was a 50% discount on The Fork.
We ordered from the a-la-carte menu and happily enjoyed the extensive wine list menu. We started with an amuse bouche of 'smoked egg white and larvae' (sounds odd but delicious and textural) and bread (three types with olive oil).
For entrees, we shared the 'mushroom ravioli with additional black truffle' (as tasty as it sounds).
For mains, we ordered the 'spinalis beef' (extremely tender, well-cooked, delightful) and the 'emu' (also well-cooked, clean gamey flavours).
For desserts, we ordered the 'chef's six cheese course' (beautiful selection of cheeses, wonderful) and 'chocolate' (delicious artwork of textures of chocolate).
Exceptional service. Smart, classy ambience. Prices on higher end, reflective of fine dining (which makes the 50% discount from The Fork very handy).
Overall, an exceptional dining experience. Highly recommend.
Came here for high tea and I was blown away. They served really delicious food and tasty tea and coffee. The savouries were so tasty. The cakes were a tad too cloying and I would have preferred if it wasn't so sweet.
Lovely atmosphere, service, and food. I recommend the duck ravioli and the foie gras. They gave us a complimentary birthday dessert and drinks. Highly recommended!
A friend and I enjoyed the Quintessential High Tea on a Friday afternoon.
The food, drinks, ambience, service was all on point. An amazing experience, however the only thing that let us down was the view. I was hoping for a clear view of the Brisbane river but since Bacchus is located inside Rydges, we received an unpleasent view of hotel patrons swimming:/
I would also like to mention that my high tea was all vegan- the best part about Bacchus is that they can cater to your dietary requirements. #Brisbane #Bacchus #vegan #hightea #musttry
