85 Miskin St Reinvents Fine Dining

85 Miskin St

Fine dining without much fuss? It’s possible. Visit 85 Miskin St, a restaurant in Toowong serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The restaurant, now a longstanding institution in its neighbourhood, has reimagined the fine dining experience by offering great food in an unpretentious setting. 

Established in a quaint old Queenslander in 2005, 85 Miskin St features a low-key and minimalist decor. The casual atmosphere is best for an intimate meal or an informal catch-up with friends. Menu is split between French and Asian influences, so it will suit almost any palate. There are around 150 wines to choose from, ranging from champagne and sparkling wine to Riesling and Sauvignon Blanc.

Chef Farrell, who now has a growing number of followers, loves using local and seasonal ingredients. He worked in Walnut Restaurant inside the Royal on the Park Hotel before opening his own venture in Toowong. From “Brent’s, The Dining Experience,” he changed it to the site’s current name and refurbished the two storey suburban building to give it a new look.

Favourites from the current menu include the citrus-cured salmon, marinated sicilian olives, and deer milk and vanilla panna cotta. Their slow cooked rib fillet with caramelized onion puree, charred zucchini and chimichurri is best paired with a glass of sparkling wine.
