Madame Wu
Madame Wu, in Brisbane, serves a fresh and tantalizing spin on contemporary Asian cuisine in its wildly exotic and stylish restaurant. For ideal starters, try an array of dumplings, such as the lamb dumplings with spicy Sichuan sauce, the fried fish dumplings with coriander verde sauce and the pork dumplings with corn puree, all of which are delicately prepared and perfectly seasoned. Some of Madame Wu's specialties include the pan-fried Mooloolaba prawns in nori seaweed butter with rainbow chard, the roasted pork belly with herbs, peanuts and hot and sour sauce and the tender beef cheeks braised in sugar and soy with black bean and chili sauce. Vegetarian dishes, like the stir-fried mushrooms braised in jorim broth with steamed tofu and the green beans fried with soy bacon, are simply delectable.
Great service with a smile. Food came out timely, but not rushed. Amazing flavours and great view overlooking the story bridge... even lucky enough to see a fireworks display :)
Service was five star, food delicious and the view was amazing. Thank you
Good location, service was abysmal. My entrée arrived 15 minutes before the 2nd entrée then the third entrée another 10 minutes later and they forgot the 4th!! Main was further delayed.
The food was ok, nothing amazing but i thought highly over priced. Would not return.
The only thing we didn't like about Madam Wu was trying to change the booking. Trying to contact them was crazy as you get a machine and not a person. They rang back but I missed call and then you have to leave a message again. You need to have an actual person answer the phone.
We found the food that we ordered while beautifully presented was quite bland. Our overall experience was mixed. Despite booking a table for 5.45pm, our table was not ready on arrival and we had to wait at the bar although there appeared to be plenty of tables free. There was also a mix up with the rice order, no big deal but expected better after so many positive reviews.
We really enjoyed the food and the great views but found the service slow, after arriving we waited 20 mins to order a drink before ordering from the bar and almost had to for our second drink. The tables were also very close together so we could hear our neighbors conversation and vice versa, a little off putting. We ordered the banquet and really enjoyed the meal. We would go back again.
Wasn’t great value for money, service was very slow an left the place hungry.
Nice atmosphere, and even better view of the story bridge! Banquet was amazing!
We went to Nassme Wu when they had a set menu so our impression was based on food that we did not choose. The food was very good and we would like to go again when we can order what we want.
Delicious food we loved the lunch special,service and view. Have already recommended Madame Wu to friends. Great spot to have our 10 year anniversary lunch.
Great staff! Amazing date night spot, prices are high but the food is amazing!
Great food, service and views. We would go back again.
This was our second visit to Madame Wu and it didn't disappoint. The food and service were great and we sat outside with beautiful views. The only downside was the loud family sitting next to us, with several kids running around screaming during the whole dinner and parents that were clearly unable to control or supervise them properly. We specifically mentioned that it was our anniversary dinner, so it would have been nice to have a little more quiet and romantic dinner, not the be sat next to the Adam's family.
Our banquet was outstanding. The chicken wings were a highlight. Great views from our balcony table.
I book Madame Wu's regularly and have never once been disappointed. The staff and service is always 5 stars, and the food to match. Highly recommend!
Service was good. Food was good. However, I understand that the restaurant wants to portray a classy establishment, but not allowing their customers to take home uneaten food in a plastic box is sad. Such a waste of money and food. Get real.
Excellent ambience and service. Glad we had the $65 Banquet. What a wonderful variety of flavours and textures. Definitely on the come-back list.
My favourite restaurant in Brisbane - whenever I have to entertain my clients we have a wonderful experience every time. Sonya..
Really enjoyed Madam Wu.
The staff were very friendly and helpful.
All the food was delicious, and the service was fab. The occasion was a friend’s birthday, and when the staff realized, brought a desert that had sparklers and a special “shot” of liquor.
I would definitely come back, if only for the view from the balcony!
Casual lunch
Fantastic Service n fantastic food. Will be going back again next time we r in brissie
Food was fabulous view was spectacular would not hesitate to recommend
Beautiful food and view of the river and Kangaroo Point. Unfortunately the waiter was high as a kite and had his suspect mates in the restaurant waiting for him so we felt rushed to get out of there.
One of my favourite restaurants. The food is consistently good, the service is great and the views are fabulous. My husband and I eat at Madame Wu's about once a month.
The food "Lunch Banquet" is not that good for its price.
The food was great but only gripe i had was the waitress suggested my partner and i didn't order two mains when we said we wanted the beef cheeks and duck between us as it would be too much food. I found this odd as we obviously know how much food we can both eat and anyway she was adamant not to order two dishes so we only ordered one with rice to share and in the end it wasn't enough food. Perhaps in future the staff shouldn't tell people how much they can and can't eat and should let them order what they like
Delicious food, good service.
We had an indoor high table of five on a busy night.
Alongside our table was a 'roped off' stand up function of 20-30 people.
Unfortunately for us, it was pretty noisy.
I would recommend requesting a balcony table
to take in the city views & enjoy the delicious food & drinks that Madame Wu has to offer😊
Great food and service - beautiful and cool breezes sitting outside on a hot day - couldn’t have been in a better place!
Exceptional food and location, with impeccable service. Sadly, that's becoming a rarity these days - keep up the great work, we'll be back!
Very good service and food. The view is stunning. We will be back!
Loved the dumplings and the beef cheeks
wait staff very helpful
Beautiful food, great service and a wonderful view - what better place for lunch could there be? Thoroughly enjoyed the lunchtime special banquet which was great value and delicious.
Amazing food and an extensive Gluten-Free menu. Great atmosphere, with service that was attentive and friendly. Thank you
Our evening at Madam Wu’s was excellent. The location, ambiance, service and especially the food was outstanding. We’ll be returning!
I love this place! Can't wait to go back!! Carly was a super lovely person to be served by.
The service was outstanding by Pablo. We enjoyed the atmosphere but just felt it was a tad expensive .
A great experience at Madame Wu. Fantastic food (Lobster Dumplings!) and really wonderful, friendly service. If I lived in Brisbane I would be here every week.
Madame Wu offers river views, delicious modern asian cuisine and great service. The lunch banquet at only 40 dollars a head is good value and servings are generous. Drinks are on the pricey side but served with the same care as the food. I've been twice now. Once for dinner ($85 banquet) and the lunch banquet and I would recommend the lunch banquet as it was best value. Dinner menu needed more time between courses and there were a few items on the menu that didn't meet standard. Outstanding dishes to have there are the chicken ribs, duck buns, lamb dumplings and on the dinner menu, the diamond shell clams were great.
A good spot for a casual dinner and drinks. The view is a winner and the staff are friendly and mostly attentive. Maybe we didn’t order the best things on the menu because the food was a bit ordinary. Generally though, a good experience.
Couldn’t fault any aspect of our experience. Absolutely fantastic!
