Overview

Meridian Kitchen — what to expect

Head chef Daniel Ash runs a tight menu: twelve à la carte dishes and a five-course degustation at $145. The kitchen leans on Queensland producers — Mooloolaba prawns, Scenic Rim beef, hinterland greens delivered three mornings a week.

The room seats 60, split between the main floor, a wine-wall alcove for groups of eight, and the six-seat chef's counter facing the pass. Service is polished but unpretentious — staff actually know the menu.

Chef's counter

Six seats facing the pass — book it specifically, it's a different night out.

Dietary handled properly

Vegetarian, GF and allergy menus are full menus, not afterthoughts.

Hotel guest priority
