About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for groups
  • Charming
Bienvenue. Les Bubbles is a Parisian steakhouse on the corner of Wickham and Little Street in Fortitude Valley, forged in the very same building that housed the notorious illegal casino, bath-house and brothel at the centre of the Fitzgerald Inquiry. While the card decks and kerb servers are all but gone, the building’s colourful history remains pinned to every wall. Steak frites – known by many as the national dish of France – is the centrepiece of our menu. We sear the steak to your liking, before serving it with bread, salad, plenty of sauce and bottomless frites. Les Bubbles welcomes all, and as such, both vegetarian and pescatarian eaters will feel right at home. For any curious individuals, a change of scenery is available by wandering down a single flight of stairs. It’s there that you will find the Bath-House, featuring a full bar, banquet seating and a open-aired deck to enjoy a pre or post dinner cocktail!

    Food was great, get the bone marrow and melt it over your chips, and absolutely enjoy all the sauces - the Cafe de Paris is a delicious, mild curry sauce. Steaks have a great char.

    Glasses and plates stuck to table (Unsure if it was the paint on the tables), rips in the upholstery on the booth chairs. Unable to order a small petite version even with card stating medical reasons, understandable if they didn't have a petite menu but they do and limit it to under 12s, but that's ok, would just be nice if it was considered. Service was great, couldn't fault the service.

    Traditionally, every time we have dined here the service and food has been amazing. Unfortunately this time was well below the standard that we are use to. We made an 8pm booking which said it should allow for 1.5 hours. Our table wasn’t ready on arrival, there were extended times to even get water delivered to the table. All the steaks were under cooked and rubbery, we even had one member of the table who requested the premium steak…he asked for medium rare and it was closer to blue/rare. This seemed like the mains were rushed as we were told 45 minutes into our booking that the kitchen was closing. If the kitchen closes sooner than you allow for on bookings, there needs to be a change in booking times. We hope that there is better attention to service and food if we return again.

    This is hard! The food is great, the wine list is impeccable (when it's available), however the service and ambience is terrible. I booked for an anniversary dinner, I was asked to put the occasion in the booking and yet despite a relatively empty restaurant you sat us down near the toilet next to a family. Why???? It's also very hot in the restaurant, I'm guessing owing to the open kitchen but it's actually very uncomfortable. Your wait staff are obviously untrained, and the music was honestly the worst. Why am I eating a beautiful steak dinner on a romantic occasion listening to bon jovi, Aerosmith and guns n roses? Again, good and drink is fab (seriously the salad is the best), prices are agreeable. But it's not a place for a date or to celebrate a special occasion. Devo the bike marrow was cooked with a blow torch rather than on the grill.

    The bistro has a very limited menu but we didn't mind as we came for the steak and frittes. The food arrived to perfection. Yhe steak was one of the most tasty I have had in years. The ambience was great and service excellent!

    The service was brilliant, the wine was good, the fries were good the steak was horrible- even when cooked as requested the meat was extremely low quality which the cook had no chance of making good (one of the steaks were mostly raw)
