| Reviews & Notes | "... in its genre it's one of Australia's greats... Degustation only, you will make your way through all kinds of texturally intriguing morsels" 23/8/14; "Esquire describes itself as “a commitment between diner and kitchen”. Brisbane’s most high-profile restaurant requires just that, with no menus offered, just a volley of up to 25 courses, depending on the whim of the chefs." 22/8/15 |
| Reviewer | John Lethlean - The Australian |
| Reviews & Notes | "There is always a tension between the fickle nature of nature, and the printed menu – how does a chef promise the very best produce of the day, when diners insist on knowing what they're in for? At this stripped-back, sculpted, wood-and-stone riverside Brisbane dining room, owner/chef Ryan Squires flips the dilemma into a thrill-a-minute ride into the unknown. You won't know if dinner is 12 or 25 courses (between $120 and $160 pp) until you get there – because neither will he." |

| John Lethlean expains that Esq, the casual offshoot to the side, offers some of the best value à la carte options around, plucked from the Esquire menu. |
