Eden's Table

Shout out to the amazing Chef Liam! Every bit of our visit to Eden's Table was decadent and delicious. A seafood tower of our dreams was presented to us. Then gorgeous fresh baked breads, beautiful wine list, amazing steaks, and scrumptiuos desserts. Even the mashed potatoes were to die for. Seriously, this compares favorably to any 5 star restaurant we have ever visited. Mwah!

Rosé Weekends at Edens Table Food wise was excellent. The shared lunch menu consisted of a cold seafood that was exceptional, asian inspired duck breast, salmon and two salads followed by a section of deserts and cheeses. Walnut bread was extremely tasty too. Not many chefs get cold seafood right. Well done. Our waitress Madeline was excellent too. Nice Tables and chairs, however the fit-out itself looked like it was done on a budget and while I like the idea that the restaurant has the ability to slide up the large windows next to the garden seating for a fresh air feel, I don't feel proper consideration has been given to appropriate plants and shrubs.

We went on a Sunday for the Larent Perrier champagne lunch. The restaurant has a lovely peaceful aspect overlooking old Brisbane. Sara our waitress was excellent, very attentive and made the birthday occasion special. The food was exceptional and I cannot fault the place. I would highly recommend Edens Table.

Compared to other restaurants under the Marriott Bonvoy brand this doesn’t even compare. Inattentive waiters trying to appear busy instead of be busy, very difficult to get anyone’s attention as they pace back and forth between the 2 service areas ignoring the dining floor altogether. Food very hit and miss, Gin cured salmon and scallops were standouts, Unfortunately half of our dishes were overcooked and over seasoned, the duck had no colour left in the centre and was drowned in salt, the chilli prawns were overcooked and rubbery, same issue with the ravioli prawns and the pasta either stale or undercooked, notifies the waiter of the issues when they collected plates as they never checked to see how meals were, sent the full plates back but was still charged. And finally girlfriend was throwing up on the way home, I suspect this isn’t from the one drink we had and more so the food as the restaurant was our one and only destination for the night. So much potential if the communication was better, for a restaurant with only 5 tables and 5+ floor staff this was so far below par.

The staff were very friendly and professional. The setting was nice, even if it wasn't the easiest to find within the hotel and it was a little hotelish. The problem was really the food. It was just OK... A little bland. The menu sounded nice but like so many hotel restaurants it was trying to not offend rather than to entice. And the price was very expensive for what it was! I won't be going back just because there's so many other places in Brisbane to go to!
