Absolutely stunning food, service and ambiance. Ultra modern Australian food plated like art work with a focus on native Australian ingredients. Chef Josue Lopez is a genius and is recognized as one of the best chefs in Brisbane. We started with the eucalypt fire. I've never had emu before and I thought GOMA was the perfect place to try it. The emu was served 3 ways and the tartare component was a hit. We also got the moreton bay bug and this was one of my favourite dishes of the night. The bug was cooked to perfection and all the elements elevated the dish to new heights. I got the duck for main and it was so unique. Served with various mushroom components and the acidity of the quandong ba...

Came here on a Friday night before seeing a GOMA film, and it certainly changed an ordinary movie date night to an extraordinary one.
The restaurant makes fine use of Australian produce and ideas.
We started the night with a couple of glasses of Qld wines, followed by complimentary warm bread and salted butter.
For mains we had the brassica (a native vegetable) and mutton. The mutton was beautifully served three-ways and each component around the dish, especially the ash-heirloom tomatoes, complimented each other well.
For desserts we had the macadamia dish, which was bursting of sweet and salty goodness, as well as being a textural experience. The wattleseed custard was delightful and deli...
We had the 9 course tasting menu with matched wines (over nearly 4 hours) and we all thought the food was lovely (although we did like some things more than others). We enjoyed trying the Qld wines - the Granite Belt has a lot to offer - and it was good to try wines that had been "matched" to the food rather than picking a couple of bottles that would "go" sort of of. Mutton was a highlight as was the signature wattleseed custard dessert. Service from Danielle and the team was knowledgable and added to our dining experience. We will probably try to make this is a half-yearly event.

The first two courses were some sort of fish.Two courses of fish does not bode well for a 5 course meal in my eyes. Lack of creativity and too many of the same flavours. I was proved right unfortunately. 3 Out of the 5 courses my favourite meal was the broccoli. That should not be the case.The 4th course was mutton and it was bad! I cannot honestly say a good word about it. Mutton tastes like shoes. Ash is not pleasant to eat just FYI. The dessert was too much work! My whole table of 10 left hungry!!! The only reason you even get two stars is for the wine.
I dined at GOMA unexpectedly one sunny Saturday in Brisbane and it was divine. The austere, cool interior of the restaurant was a welcomed change from the Brisbane heat. The menu was an great combination of local produce (Moreton Bay bugs, Maleny buffalo haloumi, lilly pilly) and an obviously talented kitchen. It was a terrific lunch and would highly recommend anyone wanting somewhere special to dine.

Decided to have a great lunch on a Sunday afternoon. We were not disappointed. Going all in for the nine course with matching wines. Two of our group of four didn't want sea food and the chief was very accommodating.Every dish is honestly a work of art. To some degree you do not need to know what you are eating. I had eel and emu, both of which I would never choose, but the flavours were fantastic. Wines were also great, a true safari of wine.
A beautiful spot for a meal, where the food is art. Three out of the five dishes deserved to be on the menu, one was ok (the starter), but the fish was disappointing, the texture wasn't right and was chewy in parts. Still recommended for a beautiful Friday night meal.

One of the best dining experiences I have had! GOMA is definitely amongst one of the BEST fine dining restaurants this city had to offer, the degustation is a show in itself with a story behind each dish. If you haven't been, you must. Satisfaction guaranteed!
Truly imaginative food prepared with impeccable attention to detail in preparation and presentation: a real gastronomic treat
