A Hidden Gem That’s Pure Culinary Magic! When I first heard about a restaurant tucked away in the back streets behind Bunnings, I thought, There’s no way this could be anything special—surely it’s just some greasy spoon. Oh, how wrong I was! My husband, Hugh, and I had been talking about going for months, and when we finally did, I walked out with sore cheeks from smiling so much—it was that good. Every dish that arrived at our table was not only beautifully presented, but tasted even better than it looked—heaven on a plate. We indulged in several cocktails, each one was so good! The service was impeccable—we had the banquet, and not once did we feel rushed. The staff took the time to explain each dish and were so genuinely friendly and welcoming. From the outside, it doesn’t look like much, and the interior has an industrial feel (it is a cooking school too), but don’t let any of that deter you. This place is all about the food, the drinks, and the experience—and it delivers on every level! We’re already heading back this week with friends, and I cannot wait. If you’re looking for an outstanding dining experience, The Golden Pig is an absolute must-visit!

Golden Pig, Newstead – A Hidden Gem with Big Flavour Tucked away in Newstead, Golden Pig is one of Brisbane’s best—a warm, welcoming spot where traditional Chinese and Southeast Asian flavours meet modern flair. The food? Exceptional. We did the degustation menu, which was just perfect. Every dish was beautifully balanced and bursting with flavour. Even though we were full by the end—contented, really—you couldn’t help but want just one more bite. The atmosphere is relaxed but polished. Whether it’s a kid-friendly family lunch or a team dinner like ours, the space feels generous and unpretentious. Tables are well spaced, so you can enjoy real conversation without feeling crowded. And the service? Friendly, thoughtful, and never intrusive. That, paired with the food, makes Golden Pig more than just a restaurant—it’s a genuinely memorable experience. Thanks to the team at The Golden Pig you made a work team night out very enjoyable!

This place has been recommended to me a few times over the years, so I finally made it there with a girlfriend for lunch. Service is a bit weird, not on the warm side. We had two entry=2 very small bite, betal leaf is good, if you’ve been to Thailand, it’s then a standard one in most of the good Thai restaurants. Scallops is simple, and that’s $20 for 2. We then had stir fry mushroom and veggie curry, one bottle of sparkling water, 2 rice. Total of $140 for 2 I would still give 5 star for the food, even though there’s nothing exciting. The missing star is for the venue. With the kitchen in the mid of the restaurant, I left with my entire silk outfit and hair smells like a Chinese kitchen. The chair and table is quite basic too. So the experience is a mixture of up market price, fusion not so creative dishes, street food smelly setup, and indifferent service.
