• Seafood • Biggera Waters
To make the best of the Broadwater you should really eat good seafood, and it’s hard to think of a place that does it better on the Gold Coast than La Piazza On Bayview Street in Runaway Bay. Using its amazing waterfront location to full advantage, this casual fine-dining restaurant hauls in and dishes up supremely fresh and tasty seafood through a range of classic Italian and Mediterranean dishes, all with a touch of contemporary flair and Australian innovation. The atmosphere is sociable and friendly, but the cuisine is refined – live mud crabs and super fresh oysters start you on the right foot, though La Piazza On Bayview’s signature dish (vodka-cured Atlantic salmon, served with mustard aioli and capers on a crispy potato fritter) is so good it might wipe clean all previous memories. Okay, not quite, but you get the idea. La Piazza is spacious and great for large groups or families, with plenty of fresh egg pastas or gourmet pizzas to feed the masses and a varied kids menu.
