Visit websiteAbout LONGTIME DINING
Brisbane’s dumpling crowd heads to Queen Street for this sleek Cantonese spot dealing in elevated yum cha. Skip the trolley chaos—the room leans modern and polished, built around photogenic banquets. Tables fill up with steamed har gow, wagyu beef hor fun blistered with wok hei, and crisp chili garlic calamari. The headline act remains the whole Forbidden Duck, brought out and carved right at the table before the rest of the courses drop. For celebrations, small and large crews lean into flexible multi-course spreads, backed by craft cocktails like the Lucky Lady from the full bar. It wraps up cleanly with sweet mango pancakes.
- Forbidden Duck Tableside: Whole duck carved tableside as part of signature multi-course dining spreads.
- Modern Yum Cha: Classic har gow, wagyu beef hor fun, and crispy chili garlic calamari served without trolley carts.
- Flexible Banquets: Multi-course sets customizable even for pairs, including vegetarian options.
- Craft Cocktails: Full bar shaking specialty cocktails and mocktails paired with dim sum.

Tableside Forbidden Duck Theatrics
Guests enjoy multi-course banquet dining centered around signature Forbidden Duck carved tableside with dramatic presentation, alongside fresh dumplings and Cantonese classics.
The theatrics of the duck being prepared and carved before your mains are created were the big the wow factor for sure!

A curated cocktail bar complements traditional yum cha and banquet menus with creative signature drinks and mocktails tailored to dinner feasts.
Also the cocktails, 10/10! Best cocktail menu to my tastes that I have seen in a long time.
Esmeralda Dzafic Private Function Space with Dedicated Care
Longtime Dining provides dedicated private dining rooms equipped with direct audio hookups and dedicated staffing for milestone birthday gatherings.
We hired the private function room and had a dedicated team of staff taking care of us.
James Liu Secluded Group Seating for Celebrations
Secluded large round banquet tables allow large dinner parties to comfortably share generous spreads and converse effortlessly.
We were lucky to be placed in the more secluded large round tables because of our group size and it felt so private.
Angelica and Jade Flexible Banquets for Varied Tasting
Multi-course banquet structures allow diners and duos to sample diverse Cantonese signatures and dietary options with generous portioning.
Loved the fact you can mix and match the banquets even with 2 people so you can try more variety.
Erin Logan Generous Vegetarian Banquet Options
Specialized vegetarian set menus ensure groups and pairs with diverse dietary requirements enjoy high-value Cantonese dining without compromise.
The vegetarian set menu offers great value for money, and the portions are generous enough for two people to share.

Before you head over
Practical advice for planning celebrations, banquets, and group dining at Longtime Dining
Forbidden Duck Banquet Space
Order the Forbidden Duck Banquet for the highlight tableside carving theatrics, but opt for larger round tables or group bookings if possible, as tables for two can quickly run out of room for all the dishes.

For birthdays and large group milestones, hiring the private function room offers dedicated staff, pre-ordered course timing, and the ability to connect your own Spotify playlist to the room's speakers.
Flexible Banquet Portions
Banquet sets and multi-course options are flexible enough to mix and match across dining companions even for tables of two, with vegetarian set menus offering substantial sharing portions.
