Trident Cucina & Bar — Restaurant in Brisbane City

The most disappointing vegetarian option I have experienced.

Me and my partner, love to try new places. My partner ordered the vegetarian pizza and the date pudding for tonight’s meal through Uber eats.

Unfortunately, it was not too a high-level of standard that we would expect to match the price of the food.

The vegetarian pizza: Was cut in extremely uneven pieces, with one piece being gigantic and others being small. Very abnormal topping choices. Such as huge pieces of broccoli (you can see one of the many of the huge pieces of broccoli in the photo), it was lathered in corn (even though that was not a listed topping).

The presentation was not appealing, but we gave it ago. And the taste was very disappointing.

I recommend: Cutting the broccoli into smaller pieces for easier eating. Working on the presentation, and general look of the pizza. (People eat with their eyes before they eat with their mouths. Making food look good just as as it taste good especially when you’re paying higher prices) Making sure ingredients are evenly dispersed and not overdone. trying at different vegetarian pizza recipes as this is not a recipe I would recommend.

The Date Pudding: I love my dates and I love puddings! But this pudding felt more like a bread or a loaf. This felt more like a date loaf.

It was dry log bread texture. Unlike the moist soft experience a pudding this desert left a dissatisfying taste in the mouth.

Unfortunately we will not be eating here unless changes are made. Sad for the unfortunate experience and requested a defend because we couldn’t eat more than a half eaten slice each and a bite...

Went here for a first table ordered arancini to share and a main each. This was a first table booking. I asked for a take away for my 3 pieces of left over pizza. The waiter made a big deal about it even though the terms for first table don’t say you cannot get your left overs takeaway. And it was 3 pieces…I’d understand if I over ordered and had like two main. my partner then tried to order himself a dessert. The waiter didn’t want to let him order any as I got a take away. I pretty much got refused the option to have a dessert, as I got the pizza take away and the waiter made sure I knew this. He said how he managed to get me the takeaway after all when I wasn’t meant to, so I can’t order anything else. Eventually he let my partner get his dessert cause I told him it wasn’t for me and was for him. I would have returned here but after this poor experience I won’t return. Staff acting like you’re asking for their first born if you want your left overs you paid for. Pizza was also over cooked and for $26 full price 6 whole prawns...

The good: The carbonara, margarita pizza, and mushroom risotto were quite nice

The bad: -Bottle of beer spilt on one of us by the server (was fine really but not a great start) -Wine was not fresh -the seafood pasta was horrid, all oil, no flavour, the scallops were the size of a pea and dry and gross, two clams only (shells and only found one actual clam meat). I stopped eating the meal and went home hungry. -the place was quite warm and air con was not functioning well. was obvious I didn’t enjoy my meal but I feel very awkward complaining -no offer of compensation for having a drink spilt on us. Overall we are glad we tried something different but will not be rushing back. Much better quality of...
