Right off the Bulimba CityCat terminal, IL MOLO delivers riverfront Italian dining without the stiff pretense. Grab an alfresco table along the water as the river breeze rolls in. The vibe leans relaxed yet celebratory—birthday tables routinely get greeted with a complimentary glass of Prosecco. When the kitchen hits its stride, crowd-pleasing staples do the heavy lifting: tender calamari, bowls of prawn linguine, and a blistered Margherita pizza that diners often order a second round of. Just make sure to get an extra order of bread to mop up the remaining sauce.
- Ferryside Waterfront Deck: Positioned directly next to the Bulimba ferry wharf, offering open-air tables with views across the Brisbane River toward Teneriffe.
- Milestone Birthday Welcome: Celebratory tables are regularly welcomed with a complimentary glass of Prosecco on arrival for milestone birthdays.
- Classic Italian Crowd-Pleasers: Known for crowd favorites like the prawn linguine, tender calamari, and double-ordered Margherita pizzas.
