Les Amis is an impressive restaurant that holds it own on St. Pauls Terrace in Fortitude Valley. Just opposite the entrance to the Ekka, and below a new office complex it is surely a little diamond in the rough. Our new favourite!

Food
We both agreed that the food was exquisite. The variety on the menu was fabulous and made for some tough decisions. In the end, Meredith settled on her favourite, the confit duck with potato fondant, and Jaz had the herbed lamb rump with ratatouille. Both were cooked to perfection and well presented.
Les Amis also serves breakfast daily, and after being so impressed with dinner we will definitely go back to try it!
Dessert
The dessert menu was well priced and featured many of the usual suspects, including Creme brulee, lemon tart and pannacotta. Meredith had the creme brulee which passed the 3 crack test, and Jaz enjoyed the chocolate fondant. These desserts managed to beat us on this occassion, so rich and big, but definitely worth it. On the whole the meals served throughout the evening were flawless.
Service
The service surpassed our expectations as the matron was most attentive and pleasant. It really topped off the whole dining experience.
Ambience
Inside and outside courtyard dining flow seamlessly into each other, making for a very open yet intimate dining experience. Inside is elaborate wall coverings, open bar and kitchen views with and bistro style seating. The ambience here can not be faulted.
