Brick Bistro Bar - REDCLIFFE

I tell you absolutely amazing food. I tried something I wouldn't normally order and it didn't disappoint. Friendly service. Was a great eating experience with great v

Went for dinner with my husband tonight. He had steak and says it was the best he has had for a very long time. I had the fish of the day and it was so good. We also had the wings for entree to share and they were just perfect. We will definitely be back. Also the staff are very friendly and helpful.

Absolutely amazing atmosphere. Cute little set out. The customer service was amazing, we were always paid attention to and made sure we were looked after. The gnocci was delicious. Everyone was smiling and it was just a good time. Highly recommend.

Our second visit in a week and just brilliant. The $49 special is such good value and food was delicious. Ordering more just to seemed the way to go. Thanks Ash for making it a great experience.

Came here for lunch one Sunday and dinner on a thursday night. Arancini were very crispy on the outside, nice, soft pumpkin and parmesan on the inside. Hubby loved the tangy chive and yoghurt sauce that came with it. Not sure about the plating; not a fan of big white plates myself. I wasn't such a fan of the tempura veg. I found the batter floury and therefore a bit unpleasant. It needed a few seconds more in the deep fryer. Hubby didn't mind it. Both of us love onion rings. Who doesn't, my friends? These were great. Beer-battered, crisp outside, soft inside. House-made chilli jam went down well.The karaage were crispy, tender little morsels of chicken, and were delicious. The mayo was eaten with gusto by hubby. It was like popcorn chicken, just small morsels, which added to the charm. Dinner was not so good. Maybe the lack of ambience due to no customers? Also the food simply was not as good as our lunch. I chose coq au vin, which according to the menu was "classic". For me, classic coq au vin never has tomato in it, especially not tomato paste or purée. I am not a tomato fan, so this was doubly troubling to me. I expected a chicken dish, full of the flavours of red wine and mushrooms. I was sadly disappointed by this very "unclassic", and not very interesting dish. I fear the purée was from a bottle; oh dear. Red cabbage and potato chunks didn't add much to it. I left a fair whack of this dish on the plate. Our mate Princess Pia and Mr P. chose burgers for mains. Hubby enjoyed his burger, and said there was nothing wrong with it. Wagyu beef, caramelised onion, chilli jam, aioli, beer battered fries - what's not to love? Princess Pia enjoyed her burger too. Sweet potato crisps were delicious (I snuck some). Cajun crumbed chicken breast with lettuce and tomato was a safe choice. Nothing to offend here. So, to conclude, our meals were okay; great if you were Mr P. A couple of glasses of Prosecco each helped me and the Princess cope with the cold, while hubby scoffed down his usual ginger beer. You can book online which is handy; they do functions and events; and have live music on weekends. Head down on a Sunday arvo for a drink and tapas is my recommendation.
