Queensland College of Wine Tourism

We dined at the Queensland College of Wine Tourism last night as a group of four and were absolutely delighted with the entire experience. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. We each enjoyed a three-course meal and sampled a wide range of dishes—each one packed with flavour and beautifully presented. The entrées were not only delicious but also generously portioned. Mains followed with mouthwatering sauces and creative flavour combinations that were both surprising and satisfying. And the desserts? Simply divine! The drinks menu catered to all tastes, with a great selection of cocktails, classics, and an impressive wine list to match. It’s a solid 5 out of 5 stars from me—we’ll definitely be returning. Just a tip: make sure to book ahead to ensure a table!

Excellent menu selection and wines. First class service, reasonably priced. Highly recommended...

Absolutely fabulous The wine tasting experience with Tim was just great, lots to learn about wine.🍷 Then the lunch was out of this world,the medley is definitely 5stars. But the best was the service by Alissa. Thank you !we will be back again.Currently 4 visits all 5 Stars

Ordered a few things to share for lunch - duck confit, fish of the day and pork chops on rice. Everything tasted good, but nothing out of the ordinary. Despite large portions, very pricy for what there was on the plate. Wine however was delicious and the sweet whites were beautiful. Definitely would purchase more wines if in the vicinity.

The service was excellent and the food was amazing. We had the Korean sticky chicken strips which were awesome and finished off with an affogato each. The best affogato presentation we've seen and the tasted was fantastic. We can highly recommend this restaurant to anyone that enjoys wonderful food that is well presented. 10 Stars, loved it !!!

Magnificent! Great meals, attentive service. The chevre on olive sourdough and the octopus were outstanding. Our main meals were solid performers and the Eaton's Mess was divine!

Anyone visiting the Granite Belt for a wine experience MUST go to the QCWT. See the living history of wine in the region and taste the local wines. A meal at Varitas Restaurant is not to be missed. Great food, service and matched wines.

It is definitely one of the best dining experiences I have ever had. I had the chef's medley, which meant I tried flavours and foods that were new to me and I was not disappointed. Delicious! The staff were fantastic and friendly. I don't drink wine, but it wasn't a problem. I will certainly be going back in the future.
