About La Boca Bar and Grill Brisbane

Open wood fire drives the kitchen at this riverfront spot, turning out generous Argentinian asado right on the water. Steakhounds head straight for the entraña or the butcher's selection board, stacked high with smoky meats and sharp chimichurri. Grab an alfresco table along the Stamford Plaza terrace at dusk—the river breeze rolls in, the city lights up, and a glass of Malbec pairs easily with grilled barramundi or crispy empanadas. Weekday workers drop by for the fast express lunch, but evening belongs to long shared feasts, roasted baby potatoes, and house churros.

  • Wood-fired asado: Specialty cuts like entraña, tomahawk, and stacked butcher platters roasted over an open wood fire.
  • Riverside terrace dining: Alfresco terrace seating right along the river with open water views toward Story Bridge.
  • CBD express lunch: Midday specials like grilled barramundi and wagyu rump served briskly for CBD lunch breaks.

Discover why diners choose La Boca for authentic wood-fired asado, riverfront gatherings, and standout dining in Brisbane.

  • Wood-Fired Steaks and Specialty Cuts

    Continuous wood-fire cooking yields smoky, bold char across signature cuts like Wagyu tomahawks, eye fillets, and entraña.

    The Wagyu tomahawk steak was incredible, smoky, juicy and beautifully charred, with a tender centre and bold flavour from the grill.

  • A Genuine Taste of Argentine Tradition

    Diners savor an immersive culinary journey anchored by Latin rhythms, Argentine Malbec, and authentic asado craftsmanship.

    In the three years I’ve been living in Australia, I had never found a place that truly took me back home. You managed to do it — from the music, the empanadas, the chimichurri, the Argentinian Malbec, and the asado

  • Indulgent and Generous Feasts

    Hearty butcher sharing boards and surf-and-turf platters leave groups thoroughly indulged with generous portions.

    For the main dish, it was the butcher's selection. The stack of meat (from many sources) is impressive. And the amount super generous.

    We finished with the churros, and they were the perfect ending to the meal—crispy on the outside, light and fluffy on the inside, with a delicious dipping sauce that made them absolutely irresistible.
