For river and South Bank outlooks, seating preferences can be raised when making a reservation.

Black Hide Queen's Wharf is a steak and seafood restaurant on Level 4 of The Star Brisbane, positioned on The Terrace beside the Neville Bonner Pedestrian Bridge resort landing. The venue combines a formal dining setting with an open-air kitchen, indoor and outdoor seating, a cocktail lounge and views across the Brisbane River towards South Bank.

Steak forms the central focus, with Black Hide's established selection of cuts joined by fresh Queensland seafood. The menu continues the traditions associated with the Black Hide name while introducing new flavours and dishes. This creates a dining style suited to guests looking for a substantial restaurant meal built around carefully prepared beef and seafood, rather than a casual café or quick-service experience.

The open-air kitchen gives the restaurant a visible working centre. Guests can watch the preparation and cooking of the venue's steak and seafood, adding a sense of theatre without taking the focus away from the dining room. The atmosphere is polished and contemporary, with the kitchen, river outlook and cocktail lounge contributing to a destination-style setting within Brisbane's entertainment precinct.

The cocktail lounge provides a separate option for drinks and bar-menu dining, with the Brisbane River and South Bank forming the backdrop. It can suit a pre-dinner drink, a more relaxed visit centred on the lounge, or an evening that combines dining with other entertainment at The Star Brisbane. For Gold Coast visitors spending time in Brisbane, the location offers a restaurant setting that connects dinner with the city's riverside precinct.

Black Hide Queen's Wharf also caters for private occasions, with a private dining room available alongside function and event options. The combination of indoor and outdoor dining, a dedicated lounge and private space makes the venue suitable for celebrations, business meals, group occasions and special dinners. River-facing surroundings, a visible kitchen and a menu focused on steak and Queensland seafood define the overall experience.
