Friday's - Brisbane CBD


Haven't had a good happy hour deal for a while and we had heard of the deal at Fridays in the early evening during January, so we decided to book a table and check it out. Was definitely busy due to this promotion and we were lucky to have booked ahead of time.


Ordering a round of drinks first, our rose and beer were fast and satisfying after a long week of work. Ordering was done via the app and service was fast.


As expected, Dr L had the fish and chips. This was a steal with the discount. Comprising of two fish fillets, ample chips and a salad, there is hardly any better value for money in the city. Sadly though, both the chips and salad came unsalted, which I expect was an omission, but it still made a huge difference. With how busy the restaurant was, we were also unable to flag down a waiter to fix this. Other than this though, the fish and chips were crisp and the salad was fresh and he found it quite satisfying.


My main was the chicken parmigiana. It came with napoli sauce atop a deep fried chicken breast and was topped with mozzarella. The chicken was crunchy but the batter was fairly thick and underneath it was moderately dry, the napoli sauce was also dry and didn't add much by way of moisture either. The chips were fairly standard, as was the salad. The value was good but I definitely have had better elsewhere.


Interluding with drinks, these required a bit more manual labour to create, so they took a bit longer than expected.


Dr L said that he was fairly hungry so we had a serve or karage chicken as a side as well. Again these were fairly light on the salt and the batter was very thick.. At least it came with some kewpie for us to dip it into and the portions were very generous. The side salad was really enjoyable too.
