Siam South Bank Restaurant Brisbane

Siam South Bank is a Thai restaurant in the South Bank Parklands, at 4b/15 Tribune Street, opposite Picnic Island Green and close to River Quay Green. Its menu focuses on traditional Thai flavours, with dishes built around ingredients such as kaffir lime leaf, holy basil, lemongrass, coconut milk, chilli and fresh herbs. The restaurant offers dine-in meals, takeaway and lunch specials, making it suitable for a relaxed meal in South Bank or something to take into the surrounding parklands.

There is plenty of choice across the menu, including soups, salads, curries, stir-fries, rice dishes and noodles. The selection includes familiar Thai favourites such as Pad Thai, Tom Yum, green curry, Massaman curry and Panang curry, alongside less everyday options including northern Thai sour sausage, larb gai and whole barramundi in the banquet menu. Starters range from chicken satay and curry puffs to fish cakes, coconut prawns and vegetable dumplings. Vegetarian choices are available across several sections, and the menu identifies gluten-free options, with guests asked to speak with staff about requirements.

The setting is described as a tranquil space tucked into the gardens of the South Bank Parklands, offering a quieter dining atmosphere within a busy Brisbane precinct. Guests can dine in or take their food away for a meal near River Quay Green. For larger gatherings, the banquet menus provide set combinations of starters, mains, rice, soup and, in one option, desserts. The available formats cater for groups of different sizes, from smaller parties to larger functions, with some banquets requiring minimum numbers.

Siam South Bank has been serving the local community since June 2011.
