That this establishment is always full , when there are so many dining options in the area , should tell you something .You can drive past any night of the week and there is a good roll-up . The Australian Good Food and Wine Guide gives this place a nod , too. Avail yourself of the Peposo Brucchetta to get... More

Grappino is a Brisbane institution. One of the very few venues that attracts and retains business from a loyal customer base and word of mouth alone which speaks for itself. Grappino consistently serves up the best authentic Italian we've ever eaten. We had our wedding here a couple years ago and our guests still reflect on the amazing 5 course... More

This lovely trattoria with bucket loads of ambiance and style never disappoints. With top quality service, excellent food and a great selection of wine. I thoroughly recommend Grappino's for a romantic night out or a meal with friends or family. My suggestion would be to order the anitpasti, it's incredible. More

Ooooh this is a good one. Family and friends had told us about it and we had an opportunity to dine here with our son and his girlfriend. Now being an Italophile (one who wants to be Italian) this ticks all the right boxes. The decore has the 70's laminated kitchen tables with stainless steel and vinyl chairs. So the... More

I had been previously with a couple of gal pals and had a great time so took my husband there on this trip. The food was great & I would recommend it to others. You do need to book as it gets very busy. More

Worst service in Brisbane? More like the worst service in all of Australia. The arrogance shown be these people should see them out of business in no flash. I hope someone buys it at a bargain price, keeps the chef, and shows these morons how profitable good service can be. There are so many good restaurants, why would you bother... More
