About Brisbane Phoenix Chinese Restaurant

Perched in Brisbane Quarter, Brisbane Phoenix pairs upscale Cantonese banquets with a moody, dark-toned dining room. Regulars drop in for refined daytime yum cha—steamer baskets loaded with crab xiao long bao and scallop caviar siu mai alongside chilled glasses of Piper-Heidsieck. Evenings shift toward celebratory group dining, where live lobster is picked straight from in-venue tanks, servers decant vintage bottles with proper glassware, and Peking duck arrives hot alongside crisp-skinned chicken.

  • Live Seafood Tanks: Live lobster and fish selected directly from on-site tanks and prepared fresh for group banquets.
  • Elevated Yum Cha: Daytime carts offer crab xiao long bao and scallop caviar siu mai alongside chilled champagne.
  • Sommelier & Decanting Service: Attentive floor staff handle vintage wine decanting, stemware pairings, and shared banquet courses.
