This place has been a favourite of my family and extended family for years, decades even. And having not gone for a few years, I was excited to go again last night. It certainly lived up to my memories, expectations and more. The seafood buffet steals the show every Friday and Saturday night. With endless supply of oysters, massels, bugs, salmon, prawns, and more any seafood foodie will not be disappointed or leave hungry. For non seafood loves there is plenty on offer with a two hot bars, salads bar, cheese bar, soup bar, fruit bar, kids bar, drinks bar, and finally a dessert bar and ice-cream bar. Pricey but worth it. Get there before 7:30pm to avoid an hour wait. Can't wait to go again.

I am so harsh on this place as it is a highly rated and expensive restaurant. The service was…read morereally slow, 2 hours 40 m at least for three course lunch and two bottles of wine. Wine glasses only filled if you ask, staff had no idea of the oysters and fish on the menu, didn't suggest anything on the menu like ordering rice to accompany curried fish. Poured the wrong water into the wrong glasses. Didn't have vintages of wine, took ages to pay the bill as the system was down. They didn't charge us for either bottle of wine and I would normally offer to pay but just left. The location is great, the possibility is there with this place but the last few times it hasn't come close to hitting the mark. The food was ok, but not stellar.

OK so normally I don't like these trendy super-schmick kinds of places (of which Broadbeach has…read moremany) but the food here was REALLY REALLY good. And this is a burger place. And I'm a vegan. I was vacationing on the Gold Coast with my parents, and we went in here for dinner on a whim because we were dressed pretty casually and they looked a little more forgiving of boardshorts and flip-flops than the other trendy dinner spots nearby. At first I had my reservations about whether or not I could eat anything here, but when I told the manager I was vegan, he didn't even bat an eye. He said they have two veggie burgers on the menu, neither of which uses egg in the binder. He volunteered this information on his own -- I didn't even have to ask, which definitely shows he's knowledgeable about veganism, because most restaurant proprietors have no clue that a lot of veggie burgers use egg. There are two veggie burgers -- the Eats Roots and Leaves ($14.50, red lentil and chickpea patty with coleslaw and tomato relish) and the Magic Mushroom ($12, mushroom patty with lettuce, red peppers, feta, and garlic ailoi). He told me the Magic Mushroom could be made vegan without the feta and aioli, but I'm not a mushroom fanatic so I opted with the Eats Roots and Leaves, which was DELICIOUS. All the flavours just melded together perfectly, and the patty stayed together perfectly, no crumbling. The bun wasn't too scratchy or hard (like some burger buns in Oz are) and it was a very filling dinner with a side of fries for under $20. My parents also enjoyed their (meaty) burgers and fries. Make no mistake, this place is a drinking establishment too -- as evidenced by their splashy cocktail and wine list, and the raucous (possible hen's party) group of women enjoying their bevvies next to us. So you don't have to have a meal here to enjoy this place (although the food really is great.) The atmosphere is...well, Broadbeach. Trendy, shiny, and all those other adjectives. A splashy mural was painted on one wall, depicting a typical Gold Coast beach scene (including bikini-clad maidens and ibis stealing food), and some of the seating areas had swings suspended from the ceiling as chairs! I wanted to sit at a table with swings, but my parents weren't keen and the hen's party swooped in and seized them anyway. The place is buzzing, it's trendy, it's very Broadbeach-y -- but the food is delicious and it's a fun place, and I love that they are so accommodating for vegans.

Tucked away in the swanky strip of bars and restaurants along Oracle Boulevard in Broadbeach, this place is a pleasant surprise. Pleasant because it's welcoming and hip at the same time - not an easy trick to pull off - and surprising because the food is actually reasonably priced while also being delicious. I like everything about this joint. For a start, there's a wide array of seating to suit just about any group. Tables inside and out to suit parties of all sizes, a couple of comfy couches, an actual bar with bar stools in case you're on your own, and even a few swing seats hung from the ceiling (haven't seen that before). The bar is well stocked with an excellent array of beers from the crafty to the usual suspects, and a wine list of similar merit sits comfortably alongside what looks a handy offering of cocktail choices for those that way inclined. I enjoyed the 'Cow Pig Cow' burger but there's one for every taste, including fish and vegie options, and other nibblies for those not in the burger mood. Get there.

The Cafe is dog friendly outside seating - we had our Labrador and she was very happy - getting attention from staff and customers. It's walk up, COVID sign in and you' lol be seated. The waiter staff will give you a tablet and this has menu and you order from the tablet for the table - I got it first try so it's easy. Menu has lots of Gluten free and Vegan options. The coffee hit the mark every time - it was excellent. Service was efficient and friendly - the waitresses checked in on us to make sure all was well. Food was very good - good serves and excellently prepared. We kept on coming back ! Note it does get crowded at peak times.

I walk passed Taste of Melaka on our first night visiting Byron Bay for the Easter long weekend…read moreholiday. It was packed full with diners at 11pm. I wished I had gone back for their food on our second night so I could come back a second time to try the rest of their menu. Unfortunately we only come back on our last night (the 6th) as I thought it was another coastal town Malaysian restaurant with disappointing subpar standard (westernised, everything tasted too sweet) much like Asia Joe's. Taste of Melaka turned out to be the best Malaysian restaurant in Australia! I do not say this lightly as I was born and grew up in Malaysia. Although I have lived in Sydney for the last 21 years, I go back to Malaysia frequently and I am still very familiar with the authentic flavours of Malaysian food. I had Taste of Melaka's Roti Kosong (plain roti), Nasi Lemak with Chicken Curry and Seafood Char Kway Teow. The roti and Nasi Lemak tasted just like what we get in Malaysia. They are 100% authentic! They are even better than a lot of the places I have tried in Malaysia as they are not as greasy. They are perfect in texture and taste, which is light, crispy and fluffy. The coconut rice is definitely the best version of what I have tasted in Australia. It is the Indian version made from basmati rice, which gives a dryer, lighter, fluffier feel and the rice have looser grains with just the right amount of coconut milk. It is perfect to be scooped down with the chicken curry sauce and the crunchy peanuts, ikan billis (anchovies) and sambal. The flavours of Taste of Malaka reminded me of the countless nights I had supple with friends till 2 or 3 am at the warong and Mamak stalls (small family own street food stall, warong is Malay own and Mamak is Malaysian Tamil Muslim) during my high school time in country town Malaysia. The Seafood Char Kway Teow was also wonderful. Although it is not the Penang style with dark soy sauce we are more familiar with. The flavour is undoubtedly authentic Asian packed full of "wok breath" and the seafood (tiger prawns, calamari and fish balls) are so fresh and generous. If you told me that the best Malaysian you have ever had was the ever so popular franchise Malaysian restaurant - Mamak, in Sydney or Melbourne, don't get offended if I laughed hard at your face and tell you that they are not even authentic Malaysian in my book! I'll say stand aside Mamak! You are so overrated! I wish I could take Taste of Malaka to Sydney and visit them at least once every week... If you are after authentic Malaysian food, I urge you to pay Taste of Malaka a visit. I only wish I discovered them earlier and have a chance to try more of their dishes. I would certainly come back though when I visit Byron Bay again. P.S.: Roti needs curry sauce for dipping. If you order the roti, you need to order some kind of curry as the roti is not served with dipping sauce. It is usually come with a curry sauce in Sydney, or at least two dipping sources in Malaysia.
