The restaurant & bar

Pull up a chair.The night is long.

Sale is an Italian restaurant built around the unhurried meal — slow cooking, sharp flavours, Brisbane produce done with intention. When the evening shifts, Notte is already waiting.

Low light, long drinks, a cocktail list that knows what it’s doing. Found at Demo Hotel, and nowhere else.

The team

Roman in discipline.Brisbane in heart.

The kitchen at Sale is run by Frances Hale — a Hatted chef who learned her craft in Rome before bringing it home to Brisbane. She buys from the same Queensland growers season after season, and that shows up on every plate.

Behind the bar at Notte is Tom Ledesma — born in Argentina, trained between Rome and Melbourne, now anchoring Brisbane’s best hours after dark. If you want him to walk you through the list at 6 pm, ask reception when you check in.
