I came here last night with my significant other and I can’t express how amazing it was! The chicken stir fry and the lamb were cooked perfectly and the dessert was to die for. To top it off, the service was fantastic, G and the other two lovely ladies that were working were nothing but kind, considerate and constantly had a smile on their faces. They made my birthday night perfect and if I could rate any higher than 5, I would �
Went to Libertine for a birthday - thanks Catherine and Nathan
10 person 7 course set menu (I think set menu may be compulsory for larger groups).
The food was excellent - each course really was great, and there was plenty; unfortunately we didn't finish it all.
Duck pancakes, can be a bit of a cliche, were really good and they made them special - pork belly awesome. It get a bit meaty but that's no problem for most.
Service was excellent - the waitress in the outdoor bar (where we started) was really attentive and the waitress for our table was pretty sharp too. No hiccoughs.
Great food and service.
Took the family on Father's day.
We have been a couple of times before - but were worried about some of the odd crazy-low scores that we'd seen on reviews - we wondered if it had lost its mojo.
Absolutely awesome meal
The starters were fought over by the family - negotiations quickly turned to attempts at downright plate smash and grab. We had the Braised Angus Cheek Dumplings, Vietnamese Organic Pork Spring Rolls and Mushroom, Tofu & Smoked Speck San Choi Bao.
Still I worried about those reviews - maybe we had just been lucky with the trouble-causing starters ??
We chose individual dishes to share instead of the selection / banquet options.
I was relieved we did as we went for the larger Bug Curry option and it was a stunner. The pork belly was perfect and I also really enjoyed the Crispy Baby Barra.
Desert heralded another fight across the table - the Banana Beignets were my fav, just ahead of the Creme Brulet and Choc Hazelnut Fondant.
We won't be leaving it so long between drinks again !
To those who left bad reviews - whaaaaaat !
We dined here early one evening and thoroughly enjoyed the meal. Food was excellent, the stand-out dish probably being the pork belly. Good selection of beers, cocktails, etc.

We ate at Libertine on a Monday night and shared three meals between two people. Given gluten intolerance I was interested in the GF options on the menu, of which there are many. The waitress advised her favourite dishes are the chicken stir-fry, pork belly and prawn fried rice. We bought all three and each were filling and delicious! It was a little too much food even though we were hungry. It’s hard to compare them due to the different flavours but my favourite was the chicken.
The decor and atmosphere was lovely and the waitress was great. Would love to go back to try some drinks on a busier night. Would definitely be back.
Great atmosphere, amazing service and a well thought out menu. Thoroughly enjoyed both times I have visited here, and will make it our regular when visiting Brisbane

Libertine - where French and Vietnamese cuisine comes together to an explosion of exotic flavours through their exquisite spread! We happened to be there during their happy hour of 5-6pm where every entree dish, you get two for the price of one through their ‘double the love’ offer. Enjoyed every bite of their spread and can not wait to go back and try every other item on the menu!
Perhaps the best food I've ever eaten, from the entrees to desserts that we selected. The staff were incredibly friendly and were quick to help, but not too pushy and frequent like in some high end restaurants. The food arrived in a timely manner and we never once felt like we were waiting. I cannot fault this restaurant, even down to the lighting that made for a great, cozy atmosphere.
Absolutely delicious! Went for my birthday, they sat is in a nice quiet spot which was appreciated as the restaurant can be a little noisy. We had the 'choose your own 6 dishes' on Tuesday and everything was superb! It was the perfect amount of food for 2 people and everything was so well cooked and flavorsome. We started with Popcorn chicken, san choy bau and scallops, then the twice cooked pork belly, wagyu steak and papaya salad. It's really hard to choose a favorite, because literally everything was amazing, but the Pork belly was probably the highlight. So nice to see so many GF options on a menu and feel like everything you are eating is fresh and made with quality ingredients. The service was also fabulous and we could not have had a more perfect night. Thank you!
After watching a show at the Spring Hill Reservoir on Friday with friends we all decided to go to the barracks to see if we could get a bite to eat. Everything was closed however Libertine were prepared to let us order its bar menu. Lovely ambience, snacks were yummy as share plates, wine was amazing and given how late it was Ann's we were the last table there the service was excellent. Really excited about going back for a main meal.
We booked here Sunday night for my husband's birthday and what an experience!! Our waiter was a very friendly and knowledgeable America guy who helped us pick tasty cocktails from the extensive menu! We ordered the 10 course banquet and boy was it a lot of food! We ended up taking most of the dishes home. Delicious food, beautifully presented, and very reasonable in cost. Highly recommend!
Been here a couple of times before, but tonight we decided to try the 7 course banquet. For $59 pp it was good value, with a salmon tartare to start, followed by BBQ duck crepe and a Vietnamese salad it was a great start. The main dishes of twice cooked pork belly and spiced lamb rump arrived, both dishes well cooked and well presented. The crackling on the pork belly was just right and the lamb tender. With a papaya salad and a Creme brûlée to finish off a great banquet. Service here was first class and the menu is diverse and well put together. I think if you chose a banquet, or ordered from the menu you will find great dishes at Libertine.
We arrived after making an online booking for an anniversary dinner at Libertine's. I had requested a table where we could sit next to each other, and we were offered a private booth which provided a private and intimate setting to our dining experience.
The staff were very friendly and attentive, and were happy to talk to us about all the dishes we ordered. We ordered a range of dishes to try, and we enjoyed very single one. Each dish had a unique set of textures and flavours. The tiger prawn croissants and the pork belly were our favourites. Overall, we had a great evening at Libertine's and we'll definitely return to try more items from the menu.
What a delightful find. Went here with a group of mothers for a night out. Amazing cocktails. Delicious food. Flavours were fresh. We shared a number of dishes but there were options for various prices banquets available. The staff were attentive and informative. A really enjoyable experience. Parking is available underneath for a fee, if you book online you save quite a bit so would recommend doing this. Definitely will be returning.
Enjoyed the vegetarian lunch time banquet and would highly recommend! Well presented, generous portions and sensational flavours. Definitely come with an empty stomach!
The restaurant itself is quite opulent and well maintained. Great location with plenty of nearby parking.
Went for a vegetarian banquet experience. We weren't disappointed. We had a 7 course vegetarian. Struggled to finish it by the end. But each and every dish was wonderful. The sauces, salads, crepe etc.. Everything was wonderful. Ambience is nice and romantic. Ideal for a date. The service by Kevin was wonderful from start to finish. Very professional, polite and accommodated all our requirements, legend! Loved the experience and would definitely want to do it again.
We settled for the Libertine Long Lunch which was a 4 course set menu. Regret not going off the a la carte menu. Would have wanted to try some other dishes.
Loved the tiger prawn croissant.
The dessert platter and the chocolate fondant was the highlight for me, which was not part of the long lunch menu.
There's a reason Libertine has been around for so long. The food and service is consistently good. I love feed me/banquet style places because I love trying lots of different foods and Libertine doesn't disappoint. I wish they'd change their menu a little more frequently though, so I return more frequently to try other food.
The perfect mix of fine dining, inviting atmosphere, and excellent portions. Fusion cuisine at its best, and the restaurant clearly knows and crafts its menu expertly. The long lunch for $39 per person is exceptional value for money-- the pickled watermelon with the pork belly is a perfect combination and a perennial favourite. The range of drinks has something for everyone and staff have excellent recommendations if you aren't sure or want to try something new. A great venue for dates, casual get togethers, family or work events, and manages to straddle the line between pleasing for gourmands and approachable for new or less adventurous palates.
