A truly lovely Sunday lunch. Great service. Food served on time. Attractive plating and hot food hot. Calamari was the most tender we have ever had. Very pleasurable surrounds. time to chat and enjoy ambience.

We went for a family breakfast a couple of weeks back. It was nice but not as good as what I was expecting. Some dishes were cold or luke warm instead of hot but I think they were running with one chef so we may go back again, though a bit pricey.
How wonderful to find that Watercress has now re-opened! This was our favourite local restaurant and we were really upset to find that it had been closed. But it has now re-opened, with the same fantastic owners serving high quality meals at a reasonable price.

I'm yet to try out this place as I haven't read good reviews about it. This is the first :-)
I will note this on my rainy day list, cheers
We go here every month or two, always top quality service, food, atmosphere and value. The best on the Northside of Brisbane easily.
Approximate cost: $18-25
A friend of mine decided to take me out for a meal. She suggested we try this place after driving past. We liked the look of the place, and it seemed like a good choice when we entered. The food was lovely and hot, very filling and the coffee was to die for! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, and the whole experience was worth every minute we waited for our meals. The cost was quite good, and the food was delicious! I plan on going there more often now that I have been. The staff were very friendly, and the service great. Parking was a breeze too. I highly recommend it to all and sundry if they are looking for a great start to their day.

To say this restaurant is outstanding is an understatement! Myself and 7 of my work collegues were looking for somewhere to have a breakfast early on a Friday morning. When I rang this restaurant to make a booking, the owner agreed to open earlier than normal to accommodate us. Within 5 minutes of our arrival, all of our meals were on the table, as were our drinks. Impressive, as amongst our orders were eggs benedict, omelettes, big breakfasts, and pancakes, and everyones meals were 10/10.
This place has a lovely atmosphere - it feels like your in a lovely, huge outdoor pergola!! Can not speak highly enough of this place. Can't wait to bring my husband for breakfast one Sunday morning.
Beauiful meal and terrific service. Thank you for a great dining experience. Coffee was great. My husband and I will definitely bring our Kiwi visitors here for a meal.
Going there tomorrow for breakfast. Thanks for sharing,
We pre ordered our meals (a staff breakfast for nine) and arrived to find everything ready, organised and all prepared. Meals were brought to our table on time, hot and ready to eat :) We were all very happy - food was delicious and service excellent! We'll be back!
we have been here twice, the last being a couple of months ago which means i cannot recall precise details unfortunately, however i remember we thought the food was pretty good and service was very friendly and fairly efficient. ambience is ok. a bit stark and lacking in warmth. plan to go back again though, and maybe then can be more detailed
Slight mix up for numbers when Booked a table of 6 got a table of 2.. Managed to fix it but had a very rude/miserable waitress.. Once everyone arrived we ordered entre's which were beautiful however it was a shame about the waitress being so moody or whatever was wrong with her.. When it came to order we had a new waitress which lightened the mood for all of us.. Dinner was good. It wasnt as amazing as the menu sounded but was still a good meal. Dessert was the highlight of my night however the plate was a bit awkward to eat off.. Cocktails were lovely and coffee wasnt bad either.. Very well priced and wer were all amazed that the bill was soo cheap.. The other good thing is that you can claim frequent flyer points here too.. Overall for dinner it was a nice atmosphere and is a nice place for a catch up with friends.

Thanks for giving such a detailed review, you painted a really good overall picture and I'm impressed enough to try this restaurant. Thanks.
I expected a reasonable amount after reading the other reviews. I am afraid I was quite disappointed. The best bit was the steak - the meat was very tender, juicy and pretty flavoursome. Although more salt was definitely needed. The rest was well below par. The breads were very poor (I tried all three types) - lacking in flavour, too doughy and just not very good. I can make better at home for sure. The service was average at best - the girls who served us did not communicate with each other and were just neutral with no real spark or enthuaiasm. Our table was sloped and it was too cold in places and hot in others. The wine was average. Overall, the price and service is not worth the quality you receive. I am pretty sure I won't go back.
Approximate cost: $32

Good review. Keep them coming
Just heard about this place the other day through some friends so thought we would try it out. Oh my gosh it is such a beautiful place, quant and relaxing. We will be back real soon.
Approximate cost: $80
I didn't even know this place was tucked away in here until my brother told me about it. We then went for lunch found that they offer good food and service. What I liked the most about it though was the atmosphere, it feels like a haven away from all the chaos. If you are looking for somewhere quiter than the Northlakes shopping centre, try here.
We hadn't heard of this restaurant so for a special treat for our wedding anniversary we booked last night. From the moment you enter the candles and ambience is warm and the lovely waitress was amazing, friendly and happy to look after us. The food was beautiful and felt like we got great service, great food and at a reasonable price. Thanks so much for making our night enjoyable. Sharon & Andrew
What an experience, food & service was fantastic, such a lovely relaxing atmosphere, highly recommend for a romantic meal.
Great for a romantic dinner without the drive into the CBD. Food has always been 10/10. The pizzas are really good too.
Decor is pleasant and the food and service are first class. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our meals from entree to dessert. This will be our go to restaurant for all occasions.
Approximate cost: $35
This gorgeous little restaurant tucked away in North Lakes serves up some of the best food I've had in years!! Every dish out of their kitchen has so much attention to detail, it's a party for your mouth! I had the caramelised onion bread for starters and then the best salmon I've ever tasted. My partner's steak was so tender, a steak knife was almost unnessary. 10/10 from us!!
Approximate cost: $30
Had a fabulous meal - social gathering of friends, relaxed friendly atmosphere. Lovely fresh flavours and topped off with a delightfully sinful dessert. Great service from our very attentive table hostess Steph. We will be going there again soon!

Family and friends dining, plenty of choice on menu. Food very freshly prepared, nicely presented, delicious. Staff attentive and friendly. Comfortable atmosphere. Recommended.
Went on the spur of the moment to Watercress for dinner on Saturday night. I am Coeliac and needed my food to be gluten free. No Problem. Food fantastic, Service excellent. My wife and I had a wonderful evening. The steak was excellent perfectly cooked for my wife but mine was perhaps overcooked by 1 minute. Otherwise excellent. Will definitely return
The service was great, very friendly. Extensive menu, one of our party required GF diet, no problem. There was four of us dining, everyones' meals were delicious, all diners were very satisfied with service & meal. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience.

There was 4 of us there for dinner on Christmas Eve and had two other tables near us (one of approx 10 and one of 2). We all wished each other Merry Christmas and then the three tables basically merged in one big festive celebration. The large table shared their bonbon jokes with us and we shared with the table to two. When the meal arrived we all asked what each other was having and everyone was commenting on how FANTASTIC the food was. The staff were extremely friendly, knew when to join the 'banter', knew when to be professional. I have to say that I had the pork belly and it absolutely melted in my mouth. Why this is so special is that I have difficulties eating meat due to digestive issues. So to have a meal with MEAT is so rare for me, and to have something like that was pure bliss. Since Christmas Eve, I have been there for meetings, lunch and I am going to keep going. Alastair and Bec the owners introduced themselves, the waiters introduce themselves. All I can say is that I am completely hooked. CONGRATULATIONS WATERCRESS!
There were 7 of us eating at Watercress, including 2 children. The food was REALLY good, all arrived in a timely fashion and was hot despite us all having different meals. The offer on the Childrens meals was brilliant, good portions which were enjoyed by my picky 11 yr old and my hungry 8 yr old boy!! The staff were just lovely and couldn't help enough. I might be a little picky and say they were a little too efficient....I would have liked a little more time in between courses. Prices were very reasonable considering the quality of the food. We will be back very soon I'm sure! Well done Watercress

Dined at Watercress Restaurant last night (Saturday) for the first time after reading the reviews on WOMOW with no knowledge of the restaurant prior. Food and atmosphere was great, diverse menu, friendly staff and chef's, good value for money. No corkage at present, but will be licensed soon I believe. This will become a favourite and will definitely return.
Approximate cost: $25
We turned up with no booking on New Years Eve and were greeted with fantastic, friendly smiles & service. Even before we ordered we were having a lovely time, nothing was too much trouble for the girls, Steph & Anita, who looked after us. We ordered a starter & 2 main meals & they came out quickly & hot!! The food was delicious & well priced. No corkage was charged for our BYO wine & beer. We had dipping breads, a Chicken tomato pesto roulade & an Angus beef burger & fries. We were very impressed with the food, service, price & setting & will definitely be going back.
Approximate cost: $50
We have dined twice at Watercress - once for breakfast, and once for lunch (freshly made scones were delicious!). My husband and I were so pleased with the attentive service and wonderful food. A great menu and generous servings. Great coffee too!
