One Fish Two Fish

ONE FISH TWO FISH CLOSED IN APRIL 2025.

One Fish Two Fish is a gorgeous seafood restaurant and bar with the wow factor, occupying a beautifully renovated Queenslander on a prominent Kangaroo Point corner.

Located opposite the Pineapple Hotel, One Fish Two Fish is where traditional fish and chips meet sublime seafood (and other) dishes with a creative twist, thanks to the talents of the chef/owner who is ex-Fish House at Burleigh.

The décor is a match for the food, with gleaming polished timber floors, white VJs, picture rails and fretwork and an enclosed verandah out back with benches, bar stools and bi-fold windows to let in the breezes and local park vistas.

The front of the restaurant/bar, which is where the bar and  takeaway section are, has a Hamptons meets-Queensland vibe a stunning feature wall, while the rest of the venue features chic dining nooks with hanging woven cane light fittings.

There’s something for everyone at One Fish Two Fish, from those who just want a cold beer or glass of wine with some fish and chips to foodies seeking a gourmet dining experience and kids, and all at prices that won’t break the budget.

Get hooked on starters like Kingfish Sashimi, soft shell crab Claw Sliders, Rainbow Cajun Fish Tacos, or the absolute melt-in-the-mouth Black Salt and Pepper feast fried Calamari.

Mains include Pot-au-Feu (provencal tomato and saffron soup with potato, shellfish, prawns and fish with crusty baguette and aioli), Whole Salt Baked Fish of the Day with potato bake and salad or the must-try Thai Green Curry with vegetable dumplings, green veges, Asian herbs and steamed jasmine rice.

Or choose from the Old Fish New Fish menu of dishes such as Battered Cod, fries and garden salad, Crumbed Baby Whiting with coleslaw and fries, Grilled Salmon with kale, quinoa and tomato salad or The Quarter Flounder (panko-crumbed flounder goujons, lettuce, cheese, house-made tartare & fries).

And when it comes to accompaniments, there’s the option of shoestring fries, beer battered chips, potato or sweet potato scallops, and, with a nod to the chef’s Eastern European heritage, potato bake with nduja sausage.Meanwhile other sides include heirloom tomato salad, zingy slaw, garden salad or the ‘Say Poke’ (zucchini, avocado, carrot, daikon, rice noodles, seaweed, sesame, Asian dressing & Kewpie).

And this is a place where you need to save room for dessert, with sweet offerings including handmade ice-creams including crème fraiche ice-cream with lemon and elderflower, vanilla bean with chocolate glaze and cotton candy, or roast banana banoffee ice-cream with dulce de leche and walnut praline, or a selection of 3 cheeses (hard, soft and blue).
