This place is good for an affordable Monday steak night with your friends and family! All the food were cooked to perfection and was prepared by trained chefs. I got the medium rare steak with pepper sauce and a side of salad, with an appetiser of cheesy garlic bread. The staff were really friendly, they were more than waitresses and assists you with whatever you need. The cheesy garlic bread tasted so good, with a satisfying cheese pull. The medium rare steak was cooked perfectly, tasted amazing as well. This place definitely doesn't deserve such a low rating. Talk about the price, the steak was only $20 each, but it was only for Monday nights and the cheesy garlic bread was $14. Reasonable price for steak these days. I do recommend coming here if you're close.

What a surprise it was to find such a place slap bang buried in the heart of Inala. No wonder it is nicknamed Inala's hidden gem. I understand the Club itself is now over 60 years old, starting from a tin shed by a bunch of fishermen to what it is today, a modern professionally run fully licensed facility. Nice cosy well presented premises, great friendly staff and quite reasonably priced quality food and drink and I had no difficulty getting in either. I will certainly will be back next time I come to Brisbane, I had a great experience. Well done people.

G's Wine Bar located on Griffith University's Nathan campus is a refreshing take on the restaurants…read morethat one would normally associate with students or universities. It's a far cry from regular sandwiches and burgers and instead replaces them with good meals like wild mushroom risotto or sirloin steak. The wine list is also quite extensive so matching the right wine with your food is quite easy even for those who are not that familiar with wines. Although G's is primarily a wine bar they do cater for everyone as they have a fully functioning licensed bar as well. The service is quite good and the staff is friendly and although they are students they have a very professional work ethic. The prices are a little bit more than the norm for "student" meals but it is well worth it. G's proves very popular for lunch, this might be slightly attributed to the fact that they are only open for lunch and breakfast however.

They had a $10 lunch special going on which was awesome! The chicken parmigana is usually about $19. We did have to purchase a drink though in order for the meal to be $10. You have to order your food at the bar (where they serve drinks) which was weird to me. The lady who took our order was really nice! My cousin and I both ordered the chicken parmigana with mashed potatoes instead of the salad. My cousin also ordered a side of garlic butter sauce for an extra $2. Our food took quite a while to come out. There didn't seem to be much people at the tavern. The proportions of the food was HUGE. We did ask for mashed potatoes instead of the salad, but they gave us both. Everything was delicious! The mashed potatoes are probably the best I've had! I've never had such smooth mashed potatoes before. The chips were yummy too! I really enjoyed the chicken parmigana!

We are told you do not tip here in Australia but once they find out you are an American the are grabbing for the cash. Grace, the bar tender, was nice enough, trying to make our drinks, of which no one here in Queensland -- or New South Wales for that matter (Sydney anyway) -- seemed never to have heard of a martini, was very quick to grab the $10 bill from my hand and say "thank you very much" before I even had the chance to say 'could I get change for this ten?" I was so taken by surprise I just smiled and chalked it up to the degradation of first world societies materialistic training. Sad really. The manager was just out right rude which added to my disillusionment! On a side note: cigarette smoke wafted in from out side giving us the true bar-room feel which, by-the-bye, did not enhance the meal!

I believe it's newly renovated and the atmosphere is wonderful. High set ceilings wonderful looking bar and grate sports/betting area with huge plasma TVs showing several different betting opportunities. Although, When we went to order to start with was great cheep food and not to busy! The menu really didn't have a lot of options if you didn't want to eat a burger. I ordered the only vegetarian option in the burgers and my partner ordered the chicken parmigiana. My burger came up and was huge! Although the it was mainly just lettuce! A lot of lettuce! There was about 2 slices of tomato and a good amount of avocado although it wasn't ripe and tasted terrible! My partners came out on a small plate with a lot of coleslaw! No chips were on the plate ether! We then realised why the food was so cheep as we had to order our own side of chips! The chicken parmigiana was really small as well! He said it was pretty average taste wise also! I order chips and gravy with mine and the gravy smelt so good! I couldn't wait to try it! But it was so watery! It was a really poor excuse for gravy! The chips were yummy with was really the only upside to the whole meal! Disappointed unfortunately.

The Uni bar and Function Center is the perfect place for students who attend Griffith University at…read moreits Nathan campus. Although it's convenient for them the Uni Bar and Function Center is not restricted to students as it opens its doors to anyone. One of its main features is the outside deck which proves popular with every one as it is perched above the ground surrounded by the Thoohey Forest. The deck also has a ping pong table and on Fridays seconds as a stage for an acoustic music set. There are TVs throughout the bar so is a great place to catch sporting events or just shoot pool. On Tuesday night the bar stays open until midnight normally hosting a range of student parties and promos. The food served is good and the lunch menu is reasonably priced with a good selection ranging from salads to burgers to pastas. They can also provide a range of food and drinks if you decide to have a function there. They also block off part of the bar so you have privacy for your party or conference. The only downfall of the Uni Bar is that it closes at 5pm most days and this often does not work for the audience that they are trying to target. Later closing times would definitely help the Uni Bar and Function Center.
