    The whole experience was great. As soon as you walk in the ambiance is awesome. We were there for their movie night where they project an old movie onto the wall and have the soundtrack running in the background… it was very cute. The service was outstanding all the way through with great recommendations and attentiveness. The food speaks for itself. Loved it. The duck was my favourite but it was all so good. Will defo go back.

    We loved the Perspective experience so we came to try the Eucalyptus Room for Valentine's Day. We had a wonderful evening. The impeccable standard set by Perspective was replicated and applied to a symphony of sweet (but no too sweet) treats supplemented by a deliciously different cocktail menu. From "bread and butter" start to the "milk and cookies" finale and Chef Andrew's sometimes passionate, sometimes humble and sometimes almost embarrassed explanations it is a thoroughly enjoyable companion experience to Perspective. Our favourite was definitely the "Fruit Cake" but the Golden Gaytime, liquorice all-sorts, fruit soup, peach and Mushroom garden were all superbly executed and so very tasty. The Eucalyptus Room is a less challenging (as in challenging to expectations of just how good certain foods can taste) experience than Perspective because you just know it is going to be good. Both are comforting and welcoming and bring something truly special to Brisbane. A special mention should go to the service team, especially Monica and Hugo who we were lucky enough to interact with both times we have dined with the team. Monica is an absolute delight and has a real talent for engaging with diners and making them feel like instant friends. And she makes an excellent cocktail. I had a very tasty Cumquat Splice and my partner had a supremely tasty pineapple and elderflower drink that almost made me wish I didn't like cumqaut quite so much.
