Black Fire Restaurant Brisbane

Black Fire Restaurant brings Italian and Spanish heritage together in a Mediterranean-style dining experience in Brisbane CBD. The venue says it has been serving this combination since 2014, with a focus on fire-grilled cooking, bold flavours, drinks and warm hospitality. Its stated aim is to create a welcoming setting where guests feel at home, making it a considered option for a relaxed meal rather than a quick takeaway stop.

The menu covers individually ordered dishes as well as set options for sharing. The chef’s tasting menu is priced at $75 per person and requires a minimum of two guests, with courses including seared scallops with crispy prosciutto, grilled chorizo on bruschetta with romesco sauce, croquetas of jamon and manchego, and Prosciutto di Parma with house bread and olive oil. Main choices include six-hour slow-roasted suckling lamb and Black Angus rump steak, served with roasted potatoes, tomatoes, salad and sauces.

There is also a Butcher Selection for a minimum of two people, built around grilled Spanish chorizo, Berkshire pork belly, aged Prosciutto di Parma, slow-roasted Angus short ribs and wagyu brisket. The lunch menu offers a choice of dishes at $24, with a $34 option that includes a house beverage. Depending on the selection, diners can choose from offerings such as a suckling lamb open sandwich, a wagyu beef cheeseburger with steak fries, chargrilled Angus rump with shiraz sauce, Sorrentina gnocchi, risotto with king prawns, or house pappardelle with braised lamb sauce and pecorino.

For drinks, the website lists a Spanish traditional sangria made with red wine, citrus liqueurs and fresh fruit, alongside cocktails including a Cuban mojito, Flamingo Dancer and Long Island Iced Tea. The minimum-two-person tasting and butcher menus make Black Fire particularly suited to couples or small groups wanting a structured meal, while the lunch choices offer a more flexible way to sample the restaurant in the Brisbane CBD. Its 4.4 Google rating from 1,002 reviews provides an additional reference point for diners comparing local restaurants.
