Gold Coast restaurants have come a long way over the last decade, what used to be acceptable is no longer tolerated by many people who expect a much higher standard of food quality and presentation than previously. When you’re looking for something special in a Gold Coast restaurant, one of the best ways is to take a food tour organised by the local tourist industry.

These tours take you to restaurants that are just off the normal tourist route and specialise in high quality local, seasonal foods that you will not find in the normal run of the mill tourist type restaurants that like to offer a standard fare.

If you’re adventurous “Foodie” type person who loves to find specialty items and exotic dishes prepared freshly by internationally renowned world class chefs, then you will certainly be able to find them in some of the Gold Coast restaurants.

This March, foodies will be treated to an authentic Mexican Fiesta at Surfers care of the Citrique restaurant where their award winning Seafood Buffet is complimented with a selection of Mexican delicacies and dishes.

Finding ...
... your way around

If you’re new to town one of the best ways to find the top specialties of the Gold Coast is to make friends with a taxi driver. They might not eat out a lot, but you can be sure they have picked up people who tell them about the very best and worst establishments around. Tell them what you are looking for and they will drop you at the door of the pick of the right specialty restaurants around the Coast.

Once you have found a great place the next step is to get a table, but many places, especially the best ones are booked out far in advance so you need to be prepared to wait.

A real good way, if the place you want to eat at is booked out is to ask the staff there to recommend somewhere they like to eat, chances are the place they suggest will be fairly new so will not have become so well-known and you may have a chance there.

Walking the streets and finding delights

Street food on the Gold Coast is mostly a fantastic and inexpensive experience, while roaming around on foot you can take advantage of some of the great night markets and food courts that are sprinkled around the Gold Coast.

While out there and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere, local scene and mixing it with the wide variety of street performers, musicians and artists that all come together to create a warm and inviting environment.

It’s safe and family friendly, so all can enjoy the lovely Gold Coast night and if you feel inclined for a pleasant romantic stroll with someone special, you’ll find the people there more than accommodating.

The top specialties of the best Gold Coast restaurant are easy to find by following the local crowds and business owners or talking with the taxi drivers who take people to and from some of the best world renowned restaurants that can be found for the discerning dinner all over the Gold Coast.
