After living in this building for over a year the combination of poor weather and being tired said just eat in for once. I generally ignore hotel food since it is usually overpriced and underwhelming.
Tonight's special was slow cooked pork ribs with salad and sweet potato fries ($34.50). I was pleasantly surprised by the ribs. The were cooked to perfection but slightly lacking in BBQ sauce. The salad also lacked sufficient dressing but that seems to be an Australian thing most places.
The service was attentive, pleasant, and not rushed . That was expected as the were almost as many staff as diners.
Overall 3.5. Why? Ribs need more than one serviette when you are getting fingers into the sauce. Ribs should also come with a place to put your bones and a finger bowl. The open dining room in the foyer is also a bit of a downer. I chose to eat outside under an umbrella at a bar table.
An all new menu with a great new team since November 2015 has seen the restaurant leap into the 2016 year with gusto. Breakfast from 6.30am to 10am of alacarte selections of Eggs Benedict, Bacon & Eggs, French Toast, Grinders Barista Coffee as well as a European Continental which includes ham, tomato, cheese, croissants, boiled eggs and the cereals and fruit.
Lunch is hopping with $12.50 selections including Fish Chips & Salad, Chicken Schnitzel Chips and salad with gravy, Vegetarian Stir Fry or the Riverside Beef Burger at $14.50 is amazing with the home made beef patties. Wednesday is $13.90 Schnitzel and Corona and lunch runs from 11am to 4.30pm.
Dinner is now fine dining with the best selection of local produce with mouth watering steaks from the Darling Downs and Kilcoy region. The Italian selection, the Queenslander Burgers or the four signature dishes including Chicken Neptune will make the selections fun.
Match in a great choice of wines from Australia's best regions and beer to suit every taste and you have a venue that you can be confident to bring your friends or business associates to.
Monty Time is from 3pm to 6pm daily and has half kilo Riverside Style Chicken Wings for $12.00 and $5 wines, beers on tap and spirits to choose from.
A modest unassuming venue with good old school food. We attended a reunion with a buffet meal attached - $30 for all you can eat roast chicken, pork, lamb and baked vegetables, followed by individual pavlovas with fresh whipped cream and fruit salad. The food of my childhood and totally enjoyable.
Hidden gem. At here many times while staying at the hotel.
To be honest, the restaurant on appearance just appears to be an afterthought. A few tables and a small bar, it really doesn't look like much.
The food though is quite good, I never had a bad meal. The prices are also excellent for what you get.
This is not a formal restaurant, you can easily rock up wearing a shirt, shorts and thongs. Just a chilled out place where you can have a drink and a good feed at very reasonable prices. If I was in the area again I'd absolutely stop in.
Montague's it's slightly posh with a great atmosphere ordered a steak buger with a garnish of chips, and I must deeply state that the steak burger is the best I have had in Brisbane, nice plump and juicy rump and a perfectly cooked egg, the service is absolutely astonishing! These people seem to value customer service above all else, kind and friendly staff willing to head your demands
The steak was perfectly cooked and the chips are simply to die for, the restaurant is a very open and spacious atmosphere with a slight classic but posh twist
The food is reasonably priced and so are the drinks,
Montague's has become one of my favourite places to eat
Well done guys 5/5

Amazing food! Hidden Gem!. I eat at this restaurant regularly, merely due to the fact that the food quality is amazing, taste is awesome and prices are incredibly affordable.
You will always have your "Fox Hotel's" that charge you $10.00 for a cheap steak, but this is good quality food.
One of the main things, though, is the service. Every time I walk in I am greeted with a smile, and they tend to remember all the things I like and usually order.
Definitely recommend.
We were staying at the hotel and intended to go out but decided to downstairs after reading the menu and convenience. The food was great and we loved the sweat potato chips. A big thanks to the staff and kitchen for being really flexible with my daughter 's needs.
Well I have stayed at the hotel a couple of times and I must say they struggled for a while but the new restaurant manager knows what he is doing the food was excellent and buy the flour marks on his face I think he was cooking as well !!!! He had the whole customers laughing and frankly made the whole experience great we were planning on going somewhere else but stayed the whole night.. For what it is ..hidden .. This is the new secret spot in south bank just waiting to be discovered
Went here for the $10 Lunch deal. Decent value and quality items on offer.
Staff were really friendly and the inside dining chairs were surprisingly comfortable. Would recommend.
This is exactly the kind of place I enjoy coming to and like spending my money.
The staff ( husband and wife duo) are really friendly, kind, attentive and efficient.
The food is tasty, cooked well and free of arrogant garnishes (a rarity in Southbank). I like that.
It feels like someone who loves you has cooked your breakfast.
A great start to our day and an entirely positive experience!
Good food at reasonable prices, friendly and efficient staff. Handy place for a meal while visiting Southbank
A wonderful hidden away Food Oasis and so close to Southbank. Food priced very reasonable and fresh. Wonderful smiling Staff who provide excellent service. Had the schnitzel special on a Tuesday night which is good value. There was plenty of food on the plate and was freshly cooked. Took a while from ordering till when we received our food so we had to eat quickly as we were going to a show at QPAC. The food was good and I would eat there again, but would get there a little bit earlier so we didn't have to rush. Highly recommended!
Waiter was friendly, energetic and helpful. I really enjoyed the service. We had al a crate breakfast and in my opinion the prices are high for the quality and effort put into the meal.
