Urbane

Top choice in Brisbane


After working in Michelin-starred restaurants in Paris, Brisbane-born chef Andrew Gunn now steers Urbane. Widely considered Brisbane's top restaurant, its tasting menus burst with intrigue and delight, from the pairing of ingredients to the visual presentation. Choose from two tasting menus – omnivore and herbivore – offered as five- or seven-course options. Excellent wine list. Book ahead.
