Contribuiți la feedbackWe visited Cinco Bistro on the 29th of February for a dinner for four. Street parking was plentiful albeit tight in the side street. The restaurant itself was easy to find with a warm inviting interior.<br/ <br/ For entree we ordered the Grilled Quail and Scallop Risotto to share. The Quail was tender with the breast deboned and the scallops were seared perfectly. For mains we ordered the Darling Downs Eye Fillet and Pappardelle Pasta with Beef Cheek Ragu. I asked for the steak to be rare and rare I received. The steak was paired perfectly with the red wine jus and silverbeet and Beetroot. The beef cheek ragu was soft and flavoursome, with a decent balance of meat and pasta.<br/ <br/ Overall the food was delicious and prepared well however there are a few areas which we feel has let this place down, considering Cinco Bistro is demanding fine dining prices.<br/ <br/ According to the website corkage is a steep $8.50 per person. However, we were keen to have our favourite wine for our celebratory dinner so we decided it was fine to cop the corkage. However, corkage was actually $9.50 per person when we got to the restaurant. If Cinco Bistro wants us to buy their wine, that's fine, just don't have BYO.<br/ <br/ In addition, we were left to dine on large pieces of paper used to protect the table cloth. I mean is this fine dining or yum cha? If we're paying $9.50 per person in corkage, we'd like to eat off the table cloth.

Amazing food! Waiters very friendly and attentive could not fault. <br/ <br/ The pan fried olives for starter...AMAZING, need I say more. Pea and prosciutto arancini balls yummy also. <br/ <br/ Main eye fillet steak (yum) Cooked to perfection, salmon with miso eggplant sooooo yum, however small serving could of done with more eggplant to salmon ratio. <br/ <br/ Only downfall, Waited over an hour for main though, however 110% worth the wait and corkage very expensive at $8.50 each!!
Fantastic. Could not fault. Had Rump Cap with the Green Bean plus the Beetroot and Sweet Potato Sides. Great pairings of flavours. Ordered the Rump rare which was simply devine and melt in your mouth. Sampled the Duck also, that someone else in our party had, which was also fanastic. We had an Italian Pinot Grigio which complimented the experience, Definitely a special occasion venue with a strong local following. <br/ <br/ I did see that another reviewer compared it to the likes of Public (CBD), which I am not a huge fan of. This venue seems to be a bit more tangible and lacks the pretense that others do.
It's our go to for occasions Always great food Fantastic serviceMenus changes are regular and can not fault itAlways find room for a dessert
