Update: CLOSED.
The Euro has a reputation for serving some of the best Modern European inspired bistro food in Brisbane.
The award-winning restaurant is run by Executive Chef Andrew Gunn and French-trained Head Chef Amélie Rabaud. We were delighted to try a couple of dishes from their Autumn menu.

My dining companion enjoyed his veal Tartare, gojuchan and gomasio, while I tucked into a Brisbane Valley quail with escabeche.
For mains, I ordered the ‘Cotoletta’ – a generous serving of crumbed pork fillet, slaw salad and ponzu sauce. My husband enjoyed the fish of the day, which turned out to be a pan-fried snapper with zucchini and basil puree and broccolini.

If we weren’t full, we would have loved to taste one of the desserts with options like pina colada inspired pavlova and coconut mousse, or dark Sumatran chocolate sorbet and ganache, or lemon myrtle creme brulee.
I’m looking forward to returning to try the seared scallops and cauliflower puree, and the grilled calamari with parsley pesto and jamon crumbed.

Be tempted by menu items like prime cut of beef, koji rice aged, chimichurri, crunchy potatoes and crème fraiche, or Brooklet Springs spatchcocked baby chicken, mum’s honey glaze, miso corn
Handy tip: You might like to look up some of the ingredients beforehand.
There is a good range of dishes for vegetarians, including house-made falafel, smoked yoghurt, broccoli, snow peas and pickled daikon.
The Euro is the type of place where you might like to take your first date or negotiate a power deal.
