Seafood restaurants in Brisbane
Moreton Bay prawns, coral trout, mud crab, and the daily catch from Queensland's east coast. Brisbane sits next to productive seafood water. Venues that emphasise local catch are often those closest to the source: river-facing rooms in the CBD, and markets-to-table operations in South Brisbane and the Valley. Useful starting points depend on menu style and budget.
