Moo Moo The Wine Bar & Grill Brisbane Overview

Moo Moo The Wine Bar & Grill has opened in Brisbane, expanding after five years of success on the Gold Coast. Putting the sexy back into steak, Moo Moo breaks down the barriers of a traditional steakhouse by toning down the overtly masculine vibe and going chic. With its impressive wine wall in the main dining room and state of the art lighting system, you will love not only the food, but also the atmosphere. A highlight of the menu includes a specialty beef menu which has been handpicked by owner Steven from the best breeders in the country. The signature spice-rubbed 1kg Wagyu rump Roast, sealed on the char grill & oven roasted to your liking, is a must try.
