I've visited twice in a search for the best steak in Brisbane. Good points: Friendly and accommodating wait staff, the T-Bone I had the first time was great, good enough to have me wanting to come back again, my medium rare Wagyu Rump the second time was again delicious, if a little overdone for my liking. It was well presented with a fresh, crisp salad, good chips and with a better than average (for a pub) mushroom sauce.

Bad points: My wife's steak - a crying shame: unseasoned (she asked the waiter nicely if the kitchen staff could season her steak this time), not rested (both our steaks were bleeding when they arrived - a sign they were either cooked too quick, or not rested after cooking), a blackened, charred flavour, and overcooked (half of it was cooked to a well-done bouncy grey).

It was pointless mentioning it to the staff as he launched into an emotional defence that the steaks 'were not undercooked', then stormed off to the kitchen ostensibly to kick the kitchen staff. Huh? I said they were overcooked! What's going on here? I tried to clear it up afterwards but he seemed to be having difficulties dealing with the feedback from customers.

Yes, we paid the full bill. No, we didn't ask for/weren't offered a discount. Yes, we will look elsewhere for Brisbane's best steak.
