More a fun night out than a culinary experience, this restaurant features a mixture of French and northern African dishes in a quirky setting.
La Kasbah is located in South Brisbane almost directly under the grand stature of ‘The Gabba” and is a great drawcard for pre-match revelry.

La Kasbah is located in South Brisbane almost directly under the grand stature of ‘The Gabba” and is a great drawcard for pre-match revelry. It’s a fun sort a restaurant and although it doesn’t offer five star service, it has a charm all of its own. Decked out with the usual kitchy “Eastern” decor, it shows off intricate urns and richly coloured, diaphanous cloths. Offering a unique take on northern African food, tagines (aromatic meat dishes which are cooked for lengthy periods in a ceramic stove with a peaked lid) are a feature. La Kasbah boasts a number of tagines such as the honey lamb tajine: a stew of lamb cooked in a honey and cinnamon sauce, served with pears, prunes and sweet potatoes and topped with a sprinkle of almonds.
The menu jumps from traditional Algerian and Moroccan fare to distinctly French offerings like the coq au vin (a classic French dish of poultry cooked slowly in red wine with mushrooms and carrots and served with potato gratin), or the canard a l'orange (half a duck oven-roasted and served with an orange Brandy glazed sauce and potato gratin). Entrees are equally dotted with French and African dishes, lumping Algerian prawns with escargots a l’ail (oven-baked snails in a garlic butter).

This was the worst service from a restaurant I have ever experienced. We booked online more than a day in advanced and called to make sure they were ok, we left a message on their answering machine as we planned a family dinner to celebrate our girls achievements. We received a message back saying to check our email, which of course we did. We had a confirmed booking and didn't consider any more. Then on Saturday we get a message on voicemail saying we must call before we come. This was 5pm for a 7pm booking – we called back and this rude person says we can not come as they are fully booked and he cancelled our reservation. We had arranged our family dinner for this night with four of us so the young teenage kids were hugely disappointed. I tried to suggest to the proprietor that we had a valid booking and we wanted to try his restaurant, but all he could say, was that we call back after 7.30pm and MAYBE he will see if we can fit us in after 8pm. So he was not interested in confirming a later appointment (not that that would have meant much by the looks of it) and to top it off he suggested this was my fault.review 18/07/2011

Recently my family and I enjoyed dining at La Kasbah. The decor had a strong Eastern influence, along with a few personel items/collectables reflecting some of the personality of the members of this family run business. We were made to feel like VIP's from the moment we walked through the door. The staff offered assistance if required, with our food and wine selection. Four of us dined and we all enjoyed sampling each others selection of, traditional Dips, Escargot, Spicey lamb sausages, Duck a l'orange, Lamb Tajine, Tanisian Tajine and Lamb meatballs. All dishes were delightfully aromatic and flavoursome and while the meat fell off the bone, the vegetables were cooked until just tender. All of us agreed that we had never tasted such delitious lamb. It was with regret that we only left enough room for coffee. We'll defiantly be back again soon to sample more of their menu, this time leaving room for desert.review 23/11/2008
