Agnes Wood-Fire Restaurant
Agnes Restaurant
A modern Australian restaurant that cooks only over wood and charcoal, widely credited with reshaping Brisbane's dining scene.
Located at 22 Agnes Street in Fortitude Valley, Agnes was created by the Same Same and Honto team with former Gerard's Bistro head chef Ben Williamson. The kitchen has no gas burners or conventional ovens; three Argentinian-style open grills are the main heat source. Dishes include wood-grilled seafood, dry-aged meats and charcoal-roasted vegetables. The menu changes with the seasons, and the charcoal-roasted fig, wood-roasted duck and smoked lamb are often recommended. There is a wine bar and a terrace, and walk-in guests can usually find a seat more easily. The set menu costs about AUD 100 per person, and booking is recommended for dinner.
