• Contemporary Asian • Fortitude Valley
Mr. Mista is an L.A. inspired cocktail bar & Asian influenced kitchen that caters for people who love an elegant dining experience, but can still party. We’ve had some fun with our South-East-Asia inspired share-plate menu. The experience is designed to be enjoyed together and bring forward strong feelings of familiarity, like you’ve been here before.Was it that little village where no one spoke english, but you had the most amazing stir fry served on a leaf? Or was it when you went to L.A. and tried Banh Mi for the first time?Whatever it is for you, our food is going to make you feel some type of way. Textures that crunch, aromas to make your mouth water, flavours that make you vocal (argh) & aesthetics you’ll want to share to your story.Did someone say drinks? Our cocktail list will hit you with nostalgia that reminds you of that holiday, where you had a butler, a poolside cabana & an endless supply of fresh coconut

• Steakhouse • Fortitude Valley
Booked 26 times today
Bienvenue. Les Bubbles is a Parisian steakhouse on the corner of Wickham and Little Street in Fortitude Valley, forged in the very same building that housed the notorious illegal casino, bath-house and brothel at the centre of the Fitzgerald Inquiry. While the card decks and kerb servers are all but gone, the building’s colourful history remains pinned to every wall. Steak frites – known by many as the national dish of France – is the centrepiece of our menu. We sear the steak to your liking, before serving it with bread, salad, plenty of sauce and bottomless frites. Les Bubbles welcomes all, and as such, both vegetarian and pescatarian eaters will feel right at home. For any curious individuals, a change of scenery is available by wandering down a single flight of stairs. It’s there that you will find the Bath-House, featuring a full bar, banquet seating and a open-aired deck to enjoy a pre or post dinner cocktail!
