Whenever we're in Brisbane we like to dine at Ahmet's restaurant. It does get very busy on Friday nights, so it is advisable to make a booking. We've found that even when the place is crowded, the service is still fast.

We ordered a couple of mixed grilled platters of chicken, lamb and adana skewers and a lamb cutlet with Turkish rice and a green leaf salad. It was quite a large amount of food and it was very tasty.

We also got to see the belly dancer around 9pm. (We enjoyed the show). We'll definitely be eating here on our next visit to Brisbane.

Bad service. You had to be one of the lucky tables to get food otherwise it was a long time between meals. Looked upon negatively if you asked for a particular type of meat that was on the menu. Definitely not worth the money. Will not be going back.

Really nice atmosphere. They have a beautiful back terrace that overlooks the golf course. It's not overcrowded and you really feel relaxed at this place. The menu is nice. Modern Australian and really pretty reasonable so I will definitely go back again. They have kind of loyalty thing where you can sign up and get a free meal on your birthday for if you look on their website. We signed up while we were there. If you live on the North Side check it out because it's kind of a rare gem that not everyone knows about yet.

A hidden little Gem! Like a diamond in the rough! Coffee is superb and all staff can make great freshly grinded cups of caffeine tailored to suit any customers demands!

Staff are bubbly and enthusiastic and always go out of their ways to ensure that the Versatile Chef exceeds your desired level of expectation. Belinda does a wonderful job. I recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a excellent cup of coffee and some morning breaky, and the prices are very reasonable!

When we went for dinner there were two sittings - the early or the late each lasting for 2 hours.

The waiters come to your table and carve the various meats straight on to your plate. And they keep on coming.

It seems that people have had a mixed experience with the food but we were happy enough although we could have done with some more sides - not that we had room for them!

If you like your meat and want a lively experience that is a bit different to your normal restaurant then this is the place to go.

Book early! This place is amazing. You won't get any fresher, tastier or more authentic. We love this place. So cheap I hope it stays this way, it's always packed and you really have to book a week in advance if you want to eat on a fri or sat night. Staff are bubbly, relaxed and friendly. Try the fetta with honey, it's melt in your mouth.

Food was overpriced- $19 for 4 prawns and it was nothing special- just 4 prawns BBQ cooked. Waiter was not very friendly. Waited 1 hour to get our meals. Positive was the meat balls were nice. Not the tapas you get in Spain though thats for sure.

With a great setting on the Brisbane river and nice appearance, we were expecting big things from Kingsleys.

Sadly they did not follow. Service was slow and confused, and several menu items were not available. Nor was our selection from the wine list. Well over an hour passed between ordering and mains arriving (I timed it), approximately 45-50 minutes into this time I was advised that the mashed potato I ordered on the side wasn't available either. No mashed potato. How does a steakhouse run out of potato?

The supervisor came to inquire if "everything was okay" once our mains (eventually) arrived. She then proceeded to ask if we'd like to order more drinks even though all our glasses were full. We declined and then she asked a second time, saying "the night was still young". This seemed rude, and appears very questionable RSA policy, especially since in the time we were waiting for mains we'd been offered more drinks at least 3 times already.

The entrees tasted great, but the main was adequate at best. Extra charges applied for sauces and such "the steak comes with nothing on the side". My steak was ordered medium rare, it tasted more like medium-well. I really can't be sure since there was very little light at our table, so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. Assuming it was cooked correctly, it tasted very ordinary for the price.

Considering the good reviews, our bad experience at Kingsleys does seem out of place. Maybe they were having an off night or something, still it's not really an excuse, especially since there were more staff in the restaurant than diners. Long delays and unimpressive food, charged at a premium. We won't be back.

Revision: Have been advised by fellow diner that the toilets were unclean and smelled bad.

Best ramen I had so far in Brisbane. Very nice home made noodle and tasty and good variety of soup base. Will go back again definitely.

We had a lovely trip. The food was great and plenty of it. Service was spot on and the entertainment really complimented the trip. Certainly recommend it as value for money and think it is a Brisbane 'must do'.

We dined at Kingsleys recently for a special night out and were not disappointed. We were seated promptly despite having arrived early. I had the chilli crab for mains, which was delicious but really messy, staff were only too happy to assist with the provided plastic apron and extra serviettes.

I would recommend the scallops for entree, they were lovely. The wine list was also a winner. We left feeling a little overstuffed with food because we didn't want to miss a bite.

Clearly a beautiful and memorable location. Building well maintained. Food prior to 2011 was absolutely magnificent and I would have rated 9's on every aspect. I took 2 clients there for a Sunday lunch in January 2012. I didn't appreciate being greeted as "mate" (I am female and yes, I was a regular at Summit Restaurant.

I was embarrassed to have been recognised and referred to as a regular). It's not like I ask them for a VIP discount! On this day, the service was bad. The current menu is the worst I have seen it in 10 years. There must be a new licensee. I won't take client's there again.

Very disappointing, terrible service and bland food.

We attended for lunch on Sunday 8th January without a reservation. The cashier/ door hostess was abrupt and gave the impression that they were booked out. After much mutterings and further curtness she decided we would be allowed to stay, an honour and privilege well above what we deserved. She never explained what the procedures were, set prices etc. Set us down and walked off. She gave the impression that she had better things to do. First impressions indeed!

The general staff were polite but unfriendly with exception of possibly the maître d’. The food was ordinary, chicken was flavourless, the three meats were bland and surprisingly not as tender as might be expected. The dessert taster was fantastic. Overall we found it to be unfriendly and overpriced at $108 for a 2 person Sunday lunch with one drink each.

What a surprise! Local to the Chermside area, my partner and I often struggle to find local eats like this! The staff were friendly and attentive and the food sensational! We enjoyed a lovely bottle of Italian chianti and mused over a range of delightful morsels offered on the antipasti selection. What was to be a brief escape from the week day dinner grind may have just become our new favorite place to go!

Opted for the romantic dinner package for 2 to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary. Our table next to the window was set up with silver heart-shaped confetti strewn on it, with a complimentary box of 4 chocolate truffles. The sweeping panoramic view of the city lights of Brisbane added to our dining experience.

For starters we had champagne cocktail, followed by the chef's appetizer and entree before the main meal (crisp skin Atlantic salmon), followed by a yummy assortment of desserts, and cappuccino. The meal portions were smallish but well-presented and delicious.

Despite it being mid-week, the restaurant seemed busy enough and grew to be somewhat noisy as the evening progressed. The staff were friendly and pleasant, although the service could have been a bit quicker.

Overall, it was a most memorable night out.

Yep another appalling experience review here. My husband and I spent $400 for the New Years Eve cruise on the very top deck. For this we assumed it would be a classy night out filled with bubbles, fine dining (even with the canapes that was on the menu) and quality entertainment to dance to.

Well what a joke it was. I am so upset that we paid the money for the disgusting night it was. We were served party pies, spring rolls, mini pizzas, samosas - and I am not talking about homemade here, I still can't believe they served this. The good thing is that there were around 4 choices of beer and wine. There was limited staff to wait on the patrons. A lovely man did his best to get around to some of the guests, but it just didn't cut it and the trays were left in the middle of the deck where you helped yourself.

Generally, all of the staff were really lovely and welcoming (the only +). I enjoy having a fun night out but at $200 a pop I didn't expect to be surrounded by young, loud hooligans - I thought it was going to be a classy event! The music was cheesy DJ tunes that even as a professional dancer I did not wish to dance to.

However, the view was lovely and my husband and I did our best to enjoy ourselves. I do not recommend wasting your money...get a city cat!

Response from Management:
Hi rose2012,

Food was good but the service was Atrocious! On a quiet Thursday evening it took nearly an hour and a half before we got our main meals. Three times we were told the food would be ready in 5 - 10 minutes. Won't be back.
