Sage Yellowfin is a Modern Australian restaurant on Little Stanley Street in South Bank, Brisbane. The menu focuses on coastal flavours, local produce and polished cooking, bringing together seafood, steaks, pasta, risotto and a selection of oysters.

Seafood is central to the restaurant’s identity, with produce drawn from Queensland and other Australian regions. Fresh oysters are shucked daily and served in several styles, while the broader menu includes prawns, Moreton Bay bugs, scallops, octopus and salmon. The cooking keeps the ingredients in focus while adding international influences and considered finishing touches.

Meat dishes provide a substantial alternative to the seafood selection, including char-grilled cuts of Australian beef and lamb. Pasta and risotto add further choice, with options that extend beyond the coastal menu. The result is a varied dining experience suited to diners who want seafood, a steak-focused meal or a combination of shared plates and larger dishes.

The setting combines a refined dining room with an outdoor dining option beside the South Bank Parklands. Its position on Little Stanley Street places the restaurant among South Bank’s dining and cultural precinct, with QPAC nearby. The location makes Sage Yellowfin suitable for dinner before a performance, a meal after the show, date nights, anniversaries, birthdays and group dining.

The bar complements the food with cocktails and other drinks, making the restaurant suitable for a full dinner as well as a more social evening. Oyster selections and coastal dishes can suit a seafood-led occasion, while the broader menu provides alternatives for mixed groups. For Gold Coast visitors spending an evening in Brisbane, the South Bank location offers a restaurant option close to the parklands and theatre precinct.

Sage Yellowfin suits diners looking for Modern Australian cooking in a polished but approachable setting, particularly for celebrations, theatre dinners and meals built around Australian seafood. Dietary options are also represented on the menu, with some dishes identified as gluten-free or dairy-free.
