How To Choose The Best Restaurant

Some of these suggestions may help you find the best Gold Coast Restaurant for you

If you’re searching for the best restaurant, you are going to have a great time, but it will be hard to decide which of the many hundreds of truly great eating houses are really the best. Some of these suggestions may help you find the best Restaurant for you:

  • Decide on your Budget

Before you start looking decide on how much you want to spend as there are good quality restaurants to suit most budgets. There is little point in going to a five star restaurant if you want to pay 1 star prices. You would be better waiting a while and saving up a bit more and really treating yourself than trying to get a bargain meal in a gourmet restaurant

The Gold Coast is still one of the greatest places in Australia to just hangout at the beach, but with an influx of new and exciting food venues as well as some internationally celebrated chefs, the Gold Coast has a wide range of sophisticated dining options.

You can get a great taste sensation from one of the fabulous food trucks or a myriad of first class establishments up to the top of the line award winning restaurants that have placed the Gold Coast firmly on the world food map

Ways to find the best Restaurant

  • Ask a local, people on the Coast love eating out and the locals always know the best spots
  • Talk to the staff where you’re staying, they often hear about the latest and best new spots through the grapevine
  • Google it, you’ll get hundreds of hits so it’s a matter of reading the latest reviews and comments
  • Look for food blogs. The local foodies love to talk about their latest discoveries and they will also tell you about places to avoid
  • If you still can’t find a great place to eat, talk with a taxi driver. Tell them the type of food you’re interested in and the price range you expect to pay. They may not have eaten in the best spots, but you can be sure they have collected many people from them after they have eaten, so have a pretty good idea of what they are like
  • Don’t bother with places on the main road or in busy areas, they tend to be food factories and are at best so, so and cater for package tourist classes
  • Look at the menu, is it hand written, if so, it’s likely to be created for the fresh in season food available now, so is likely to be great.

Go in and talk to the waiting staff, they are sure to welcome you and advise you of the chef’s greatest creations

  • Avoid places with photos of the food outside they are food factories, not quality restaurants
  • Usually the better restaurants are always busy, if there are no customers there is often a good reason why, so give them a miss

Finding the best restaurant is a quest many people have tried and the truth is that with the amount of high quality dining places there now, it’s a task that could take a lifetime of wonderful dining experiences to achieve.
