After reading all the amazing reviews, I thought I'd visit this place too. It's the restaurant of The Point Hotel at Kangaroo Point.
Entrance is not that visible from the road, there is a winding staircase that takes you to the restaurant. Unfortunately, I got here at 4pm and only the lunch menu was available.
Like all hotels, it was quite pretty inside with great service. The waitress was lovely, although she assumed I wouldn't be having any drinks. Maybe because it was 4pm, dunno.
Dishes: Calamari: Very nice crispy coating of pepper and some chilli flakes. On the salty side, wouldn't have minded having a cocktail with this. Calamari was very tender but slightly underdone for my taste. Prawns: amazing batter of panko and coconut. It was too sweet for my liking. I think it's a Brisbane thing to add sugar in everything. The mayo was nice. Broccoli: This was lightly oiled and grilled. I quite liked it, it tasted like a big vege steak.
All 3 dishes were oily, so a bit hard to eat. My selection was probably not the best, although I thought the broccoli would be healthy to offset the other 2 dishes. I had actually wanted to go back again to sample dessert + cocktail but ran out of time tonight. What a shame. I wish I had gone there for dinner, I'm sure it would have been amazing. Food...
Read moreRecenty l had the pleasure of dining at the very beautiful Lamberts restaurant located at The Point Brisbane Hotel in Kangaroo Point. Lamberts serves up Modern Australian cuisine and prides itself in quality and presentation and it was evident in every single course that we got. l also had the opportunity to try a Glacier toothfish aka Patagonian toothfish for the first time and l loved it. It’s good to know that the fish is sustainable and Australian so it was a definite winner with me. Beautiful presentation and cooked to perfection and you can tell it was given the respect it deserves.
My whole experience at Lamberts was exceptional. Our host Byron was so sweet and so professional. He took such good care of us and my kids. Btw the kids meals at Lamberts is epic. It was basically a adult sized meal. My kids loved it and so did we. Will definitely be back.

The waiting staff were truly exceptional and a BIG THANK YOU, to Joe when we were paying our bill. Joe was amazingly efficient, thoughtful and made me feel special with my birthday celebration, in his kindness and the service he provided for the night. Thanks again for that.

Great job everyone and I hope you all have a...
