Lennons Pool Terrace and Bar - Brisbane

Great location! Who would've expected a posh pool side bar on top of the Queen Street mall. But unfortunately that's about the best thing I can say about this place. We came looking for some lunch (there was a private party at the restaurant), it was a really hot day & there were no umbrellas cover for the outside (unless you were actually inside the pool), they won't let us sit inside the bar, that was restricted to hotel guests only. The food were not good at all. The best of the pick was the meatball. The kingfish ceviche tasted ok, but the small bits of fish just looked sad. The tacos were even worst, there were no love or respect for the food at all. To top it all off, the I was given a glass with lipstick mark still on it. Just all round disappointing. We will not be back.

We were here on a Sunday eve, and the place wasn't much crowded. The outdoor seating with a swimming pool next to you and an open top roof, what more can you ask to hangout with your friends on a weekend. I'd recommend this place if you're looking for a rooftop in the cbd with a relaxing atmosphere.

Had dinner last night at this well set-up restaurant & bar. It was a busy night and we were arranged in a table packed with other dinners. Well, it is hard to complain about in such busy night as well as in a bistro style restaurant. Having said that we were compensated with the professional and friendly service. Ordered the Black Mussels to share between two of us. Mains of Portuguese Spatchcock, Duck a l' orange. At the end, we ordered desserts of Pina Colada & Warm Sago Pudding. Black mussels were done just perfectly in the broth of tomato & chorizo. The broth was so tasteful that we licked the last drop off. Although the duck was slightly under, that suited my taste buds which was left with traces of raw fresh seafood from the Hokkaido trip last month. Spatchcock deserved from up due to the juicy meat which was well balanced with the sweetcorn salsa and cumin yoghurt. At the beginning, I thought the warm sago pudding was surprisingly good, however, there was even more surprise from the Pina Colada. It was the hero of the night, well balanced texture and taste from compressed pineapple, pineapple jube and the coconut sorbet delivered a nice full-stop to the dinner. I have to give my compliments to all the staff who worked in the restaurants last night. Thank you.

Great service provided by the waitress from the moment I entered the place. Cozy, bright restaurant with a tipical hotel lobby vibe to it. The only unfortunate part is that Chef made me a half well done half very medium 300g sirloin which he refused to change calling the red wine jus reduction I poured over it a blood...I ordered medium as well done is just a waste of meat, I could barely cut thru it and the only medium part of it was the 1 inch center. Those who love steaks and eat a lot of them in restaurants will understand how bad that is. I ate it as I was very hungry and I left. I won't recommend this place to anyone.
