7. The Sofitel: Suzette Buffet
All-you-can-eat buffet meets fine international cuisine at The Sofitel’s Suzette Buffet. Think internationally-inspired range of hot dishes, inclusive of a varied mix of much-loved classics and more adventurous offerings. Paired with a diverse selection of fresh, inventive salads, dips, cold cuts, Australian cheeses, and breads. The pièce de résistance for many though is undeniably the island laden with fresh local seafood. Savour Mooloolaba cooked prawns, marinated green-lipped mussels, Sydney Rock oysters, bugs, and whole-baked salmon.
Finish by filling your plate with the tempting array of sweet treats, all made in-house. From ice-creams, sorbets, decadent desserts, and a chocolate fountain with marshmallows and strawberries, you’ll want to make sure you leave plenty of room.
Lunch is available Saturdays and Sundays 12pm – 2.30pm. Prices: Adults $119, children $52. Dinner is available 5.30pm – 10pm Fridays and Saturdays. Prices: Adults: $119, children $52. (Prices differ on public holidays and over the festive season so check for current pricing.)

Combined with the cosy atmosphere, this makes Okami the perfect meeting place for families.

Kookaburra Showboat Cruises – permanently closed
Sadly Kookaburra Queen has fallen a victim to Covid and the floods so it’s another buffet in Brisbane off the list! 🙁
One of the top buffet dinners Brisbane has to offer and a show?! Perfect for a special occasion such as a birthday or Father’s Day, the Kookaburra offers a memorable dining and entertainment experience while sailing along the Brisbane river. Treat your family to an evening of city lights, live music and a contemporary international buffet – or why not upgrade to the seafood buffet and have a whale of a time! This is an absolutely ‘Brisbane’ experience that we recommend everyone do at least once (maybe twice, okay, maybe more than that!).
