The Spotted Cow - Toowoomba

Toowoomba has a good steakhouse that offers a great special deal. I ordered the porterhouse steak with Moreton Bay bug and creamy garlic sauce, paired with chips and vegetables on the side. It was a delicious and satisfying meal.

Great little joint with a bistro out back. They must have had some big festivities for Melbourne Cup in the bar as it did smell a little off. The bistro out the back was closed off from the bar (glass doors). Huge menu selection, and the meals certainly are a decent size! I didn’t get too finish my spaghetti marinara, cos it was huge and had plenty of seafood! Nice little place to try if your stopping though Toowoomba!

Today, I had a family lunch at The Spotted Cow with a group of 15 or more and we were extremely satisfied. The staff were exceptional, ensuring that our meals were served quickly so we could all enjoy our food together. I ordered the Atlantic Salmon with vegetables, and it was cooked perfectly with a crispy skin. The vegetables were fresh and crunchy. The portion sizes for all of our meals were generous. We will definitely be returning to this restaurant.

Great Mussels. We ordered the kilo of mussles in the garlic and white wine sauce. The sauce was a little salty for our liking, but the mussels were wonderfully cooked.<br/ <br/ Our only criticism is that the mussels (and beef spare ribs, which we also ordered and were delicious) did not come with any vegetables. Note that the menu never mentions that they do, just that we felt it would have been a more rounded meal, had vegetables been included.<br/ <br/ All in all, the mussels are definately something we would order again. I would probably try one of the steaks next time, instead of the beef spare ribs.<br/ <br/ As per other reviewers, drinks were pricey (especially for soft drink).

Best mussels and beer ever. The Leffe Braun on tap was perfect and the Hoegaarden Mussels the best mussels I've ever had! The $20 specials were really good value we got the lamb shank which was good.Great selection of tap and bottled beer. I have to agree that there was also a large selection of beer in the carpet though...
